I am reading a book that has nothing to do with the Bible. It's Ron Chernow's history on the Warburgs, an incredible Jewish family of bankers, Germany, and then some of them were in the United States.
And the second generation of that incredibly strong, bright, genius and wealthy family, the two oldest sons, Abby and Max, Abby was the oldest. He didn't want the birthright.
He did not want to take over as head of the bank in the next generation. And he made a deal with his brother Max when they were younger.
