Yitzchok's Intentions

A closer look at the psukim in class led me to look at my ideas of Yitzchok. From what I saw it looks like he definitely knew what he was doing when he planned to whom he was going to give the brachas.

He knew that Hashem had given Avraham a promise of being a great nation, land and children, so he decided to split the bracha between his 2 children. To Eisav, who valued material possessions and the here and now he was going to give the bracha of a large nation and prosperity. To Yaakov, the more spiritually inclined, and the one who will continue the chosen people, he was giving the more important part of the bracha, zera and aretz. This way he was insuring that Yaakov would continue the Jewish line, but Eisav would still be happy with what he received.

I think that maybe, had Rivka and Yaakov not interfered, Yitzchok's plan would have come to fruition and maybe, just maybe, things would have worked out better between the 2 brothers.
