Genesis 25:27-34 NLT
As the boys grew up, Esau became a skillful hunter. He was an outdoorsman, but Jacob had a quiet temperament, preferring to stay at home. [28] Isaac loved Esau because he enjoyed eating the wild game Esau brought home, but Rebekah loved Jacob. [29] One day when Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau arrived home from the wilderness exhausted and hungry. [30] Esau said to Jacob, “I’m starved! Give me some of that red stew!” (This is how Esau got his other name, Edom, which means “red.”) [31] “All right,” Jacob replied, “but trade me your rights as the firstborn son.” [32] “Look, I’m dying of starvation!” said Esau. “What good is my birthright to me now?” [33] But Jacob said, “First you must swear that your birthright is mine.” So Esau swore an oath, thereby selling all his rights as the firstborn to his brother, Jacob. [34] Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and lentil stew. Esau ate the meal, then got up and left. He showed contempt for his rights as the firstborn.
Genesis 25:22-23 NLT
But the two children struggled with each other in her womb. So she went to ask the LORD about it. “Why is this happening to me?” she asked. [23] And the LORD told her, “The sons in your womb will become two nations. From the very beginning, the two nations will be rivals. One nation will be stronger than the other; and your older son will serve your younger son.”
ISAAC LOCVE ESUA BECAUSE BELLY SATISFACTION BUT REBECCA LOVE JACOB BECAUSE OF PROPHESY.
Genesis 27:1 NLT
One day when Isaac was old and turning blind, he called for Esau, his older son, and said, “My son.” “Yes, Father?” Esau replied.
Genesis 27:28-29 NLT
“From the dew of heaven and the richness of the earth, may God always give you abundant harvests of grain and bountiful new wine. [29] May many nations become your servants, and may they bow down to you. May you be the master over your brothers, and may your mother’s sons bow down to you. All who curse you will be cursed, and all who bless you will be blessed.”
Genesis 27:37-40 NLT
Isaac said to Esau, “I have made Jacob your master and have declared that all his brothers will be his servants. I have guaranteed him an abundance of grain and wine—what is left for me to give you, my son?” [38] Esau pleaded, “But do you have only one blessing? Oh my father, bless me, too!” Then Esau broke down and wept. [39] Finally, his father, Isaac, said to him, “You will live away from the richness of the earth, and away from the dew of the heaven above. [40] You will live by your sword, and you will serve your brother. But when you decide to break free, you will shake his yoke from your neck.”
