Why do you think these these tricksters are so venerated

Like Odysseus, both Abraham and Jacob (Israel) are trickster figures. Abraham lies about his wife being his sister and Jacob steals a blessing from his eldest brother Esau by lying to his brother and dying father with the help of his mother. Sampson and David both lie and murder for personal gain as well. Why do you think these these tricksters are so venerated and still thought of as heroes thousands of years later?
