A sprawling tale mixes biblical Jacob with a chaotic pastiche of names and events. Rebekah schemes to secure the blessing for Jacob while Esau plots vengeance. Jacob flees toward Haran after Isaac blesses him. A dramatic chase, a night with a dream of a heavenly ladder, and a surreal Washington detour round out this ornate, erratic narrative fragment.
