Genesis 25:23-30

23Adonai said to her: “Two nations are in your womb, and two peoples from your body will be separated. One people will be stronger than the other people, but the older will serve the younger.”

24When her time came to give birth, indeed there were twins in her womb.

25Now the first came out reddish, all of him was like a fur coat, and they named him Esau.

26Afterward his brother came out with his hand holding onto Esau’s heel—so he was named Jacob. Isaac was 60 years old when he fathered them.

27When the boys grew up, Esau became a man knowledgeable in hunting, an outdoorsman, while Jacob was a mild man, remaining in tents.

28Now Isaac loved Esau because he had a taste for wild game, but Rebekah loved Jacob.

29Now Jacob cooked a stew. When Esau came in from the field, he was exhausted,

30so Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me some of this really red stuff, because I’m exhausted”—that is why he is called Edom.
