Esau Sells His Birthright Genesis 25:27-31
·
As the boys grew up, Esau became a skillful
hunter a man of the open fields, while Jacob was the kind of person who liked
to stay home.
·
Isaac loved Esau in particular because of
the wild game he brought home but Rebekah favored Jacob.
·
One day when Jacob was cooking some stew,
Esau arrived home exhausted and hungry from a hunt.
·
Esau said, to Jacob "I'm starved! Give
me some of that red you've made." (This was how Esau got his other name
Edom Red.)
·
Jacob replied, "All right but trade me
your birthright for it."
