Genesis 27:11-17
11“But Esau my brother is a hairy man,” Jacob protested to his mother Rebekah, “and I have smooth skin!
12My father may touch me! Then he’ll think I’m mocking him and I’ll bring a curse on myself instead of a blessing.”
13So his mother told him, “Any curse against you will fall on me, my son! Just obey me! Go and get them for me!”
14So he went and got the goats and brought them to his mother. She prepared some tasty food, just the way his father loved it.
15Then Rebekah took her older son Esau’s best clothes, which she had with her in the house, and put them on her younger son Jacob.
16She put the skins of the young goats on his hands and the smooth part of his neck.
17Then she handed the tasty food and the bread she had made to her son Jacob.
