Genesis 25:24-26: And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. 25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau. 26 And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them. 27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents.

Live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you. 2 Cor. xiii. 11. PEACE is the daughter of righteousness, and the mother of knowledge ; the nurse of arts, and the improvement of all blessings. It is delectable to all that taste it, profitable to them that practice it ; to them that look upon it, amiable ; to them that enjoy it, a benefit invaluable. The building of Christianity knows no other materials. If we look upon the church itself, there is one body ; if upon the very soul of it, there is one Spirit ; if upon the endowment of it, there is one hope ; if upon the head of it, there is one Lord ; if upon the life of it, there is one faith ; if upon the door of it, there is one baptism ; if upon the Father of it, there is one God, and Father of all, Eph. iv. 4. ----Thomas Adams; The Sermons of Thomas Adams
