In Genesis 33 & 34, Jacob and Esau unite and it appears to be a friendly reunion. It seems Esau did indeed make the decision to release the yolk of comparison from his neck. The moment you become dead to everything around you other than God, it no longer matters what anyone else says to you or what anyone else has that you don't. You become dead to affirmations, condemnation, and comparison and alive to Christ and all He has for you. Esau asks Jacob about all the people and livestock with him and Jacob gives all the glory to God and His generosity. Jacob's daughter Dinah is violated in the city of Shechem and her brothers felt justified in taking vengeance into their own hands. Vengeance always belongs to God. He is the one and only Judge in all matters and we do reap what we sow into through life and have to face the consequences of our choices.
