  1. 26After that, his brother came out, and his hand had hold on Esau’s heel. He was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.
  2. 27The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.
  3. 28Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.
  4. 29Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.
  5. 30Esau said to Jacob, “Please feed me with some of that red stew, for I am famished.” Therefore his name was called Edom.
