If Paul hadn't meant to say in the previous verses that God's love for Jacob and His hatred for Esau had nothing to do with their actions either being good or evil, then he wouldn't have said what he said in vs.14. Moreover, we see that Paul turns to the only source there is for truth and righteousness in order to deal with the charge that God's actions were unrighteous, namely, Scripture. Paul quotes the example of Moses and Pharaoh as support for or as a reflection of the way God dealt with Jacob and Esau, thus showing that the way He dealt with Jacob and Esau was not a unique event. The sermon also explores why people are so offended by the idea that God has mercy on whom He wills, and whom He wills He hardens.
