We open to a scene introducing the simple life with Jacob. We are also introduced to what seems to be an adversary/friend. He remains nameless but the striking divide between the two is one is wearing white (Jacob) the other black (Anti-Jacob?).On the note of time travel, if the prevailing theory coming into this episode regarding time travel is true (as I believe it is), then nothing that the Losties do will change anything. Unless all of the theories that the Lost writers have composed regarding the time space continuum were just theoretical mumbo-jumbo, if the bomb were to go off they would all just die... That be it. Buh-bye. At least according the the preeminent theory held by many that it is impossible to change the past because you are merely arriving at a point in time that you "already arrived at", just not as your present self... At that point it was actually your future self. Now that you're there as your present self you can only do what you already did. This seems quite complex, but really isn't. There is only one contingent. The understanding that there is only ONE present. If there is only one present, then nothing in the past can change because it has all already happened. When you take your present self back in time when you arrive there you are not changing history, you are setting history up for what already happened. As Mile's said, "You just haven't experienced it yet."
I am already getting theories that this Anti-Jacob is named Esau after the Genesis tale of Jacob and his brother Esau (Ee-Saw). It is a tale of the elder son Esau starving, selling his birthrights to his younger twin brother Jacob for a bowl of red lentil soup. Jacob also tricks his father Isaac (son of Abraham the founding patriarch to the Jew's, Christians, Muslims, and founder of monotheism) to give his deathbed blessing to Jacob instead of Esau. Esau told Jacob that he wanted to kill him, for what he did. Jacob went on to be renamed Israel by God and founded the Israelites tribe. Esau formed his own tribe of people the Edomites, they became associated with Romans/Europe by Jewish history.
So is Esau (I'm going to call the Anti-Jacob Esau this just because its nice to give him a name) evil? This episode pegged Jacob as the "Good Guy." I'm just not sure. The "good guy-bad guy" lines have been thrown so many ways. I'm just not sure who to trust. Also, we found out that the self-assured re-born Locke doesn't seem to be re-born at all.
