Genesis 25:25-30
25The first came out reddish all over, like a hairy garment, so they named him Esau.
26When his brother came out with his hand clutching Esau’s heel, they named him Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when they were born.
27When the boys grew up, Esau became a skilled hunter, a man of the open fields, but Jacob was an even-tempered man, living in tents.
28Isaac loved Esau because he had a taste for fresh game, but Rebekah loved Jacob.
29Now Jacob cooked some stew, and when Esau came in from the open fields, he was famished.
30So Esau said to Jacob, “Feed me some of the red stuff – yes, this red stuff – because I’m starving!” (That is why he was also called Edom.)
