Topic Overview

בְּכוֹרָה (bekora)

בְּכוֹרָה (bekora) (Hebrew Lexicon • H1062 • birthright, primacy of inheritance): birthright, primacy of inheritance. Right of firstborn; sacred covenant inheritance traded by Esau for stew, obtained by Jacob ( Genesis 25:31 ). Within the broader Biblical Knowledge Graph, this connects directly to Grace, Divine Sovereignty & Human Responsibility—Scripture uncompromisingly affirms both God's unconditional sovereign decree ( Eph 1:11 , Rom 9 ) and genuine human moral accountability ( Josh 24:15 , Ezek 18:32 ). Harmonizing this biblical tension represents the definitive theological debate between Monergism (Augustinian/Reformed) and Synergism (Cassian/Arminian/Molinist).
