PEOPLE OF THE BIBLE ESAU GEN 25:19 And these are the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son: Abraham begat Isaac: GEN 25:20 And Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah to wife, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Padanaram, the sister to Laban the Syrian. GEN 25:21 And Isaac intreated the LORD for his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived. GEN 25:22 And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the LORD. GEN 25:23 And the LORD said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger. GEN 25:24 And when her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb. GEN 25:25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau. GEN 25:26 And after that came his brother out, and his hand took hold on Esau's heel; and his name was called Jacob: and Isaac was threescore years old when she bare them. GEN 25:27 And the boys grew: and Esau was a cunning hunter, a man of the field; and Jacob was a plain man, dwelling in tents. GEN 25:28 And Isaac loved Esau, because he did eat of his venison: but Rebekah loved Jacob. GEN 25:29 And Jacob sod pottage: and Esau came from the field, and he was faint: GEN 25:30 And Esau said to Jacob, Feed me, I pray thee, with that same red pottage; for I am faint: therefore was his name called Edom. GEN 25:31 And Jacob said, Sell me this day thy birthright. GEN 25:32 And Esau said, Behold, I am at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me? GEN 25:33 And Jacob said, Swear to me this day; and he sware unto him: and he sold his birthright unto Jacob. GEN 25:34 Then Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentiles; and he did eat and drink, and rose up, and went his way: thus Esau despised his birthright. GEN 26:34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite: GEN 27:1 And it came to pass, that when Isaac was old, and his eyes were dim, so that he could not see, he called Esau his eldest son, and said unto him, My son: and he said unto him, Behold, here am I. GEN 27:2 And he said, Behold now, I am old, I know not the day of my death: GEN 27:3 Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison; GEN 27:4 And make me savoury meat, such as I love, and bring it to me, that I may eat; that my soul may bless thee before I die. GEN 27:5 And Rebekah heard when Isaac spake to Esau his son. And Esau went to the field to hunt for venison, and to bring it. GEN 27:6 And Rebekah spake unto Jacob her son, saying, Behold, I heard thy father speak unto Esau thy brother, saying, GEN 27:7 Bring me venison, and make me savoury meat, that I may eat, and bless thee before the LORD before my death. GEN 27:8 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command thee. GEN 27:9 Go now to the flock, and fetch me from thence two good kids of the goats; and I will make them savoury meat for thy father, such as he loveth: GEN 27:10 And thou shalt bring it to thy father, that he may eat, and that he may bless thee before his death. GEN 27:11 And Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, Behold, Esau my brother is a hairy man, and I am a smooth man: GEN 27:12 My father peradventure will feel me, and I shall seem to him as a deceiver; and I shall bring a curse upon me, and not a blessing. GEN 27:13 And his mother said unto him, Upon me be thy curse, my son: only obey my voice, and go fetch me them. GEN 27:14 And he went, and fetched, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savoury meat, such as his father loved. GEN 27:15 And Rebekah took goodly raiment of her eldest son Esau, which were with her in the house, and put them upon Jacob her younger son: GEN 27:16 And she put the skins of the kids of the goats upon his hands, and upon the smooth of his neck: GEN 27:17 And she gave the savoury meat and the bread, which she had prepared, into the hand of her son Jacob. GEN 27:18 And he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son? GEN 27:19 And Jacob said unto his father, I am Esau thy firstborn; I have done according as thou badest me: arise, I pray thee, sit and eat of my venison, that thy soul may bless me. GEN 27:20 And Isaac said unto his son, How is it that thou hast found it so quickly, my son? And he said, Because the LORD thy God brought it to me. GEN 27:21 And Isaac said unto Jacob, Come near, I pray thee, that I may feel thee, my son, whether thou be my very son Esau or not. GEN 27:22 And Jacob went near unto Isaac his father; and he felt him, and said, The voice is Jacob's voice, but the hands are the hands of Esau. GEN 27:23 And he discerned him not, because his hands were hairy, as his brother Esau's hands: so he blessed him. GEN 27:24 And he said, Art thou my very son Esau? And he said, I am. GEN 27:25 And he said, Bring it near to me, and I will eat of my son's venison, that my soul may bless thee. And he brought it near to him, and he did eat: and he brought him wine and he drank. GEN 27:26 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son. GEN 27:27 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the LORD hath blessed: GEN 27:28 Therefore God give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine: GEN 27:29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee. GEN 27:30 And it came to pass, as soon as Isaac had made an end of blessing Jacob, and Jacob was yet scarce gone out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother came in from his hunting. GEN 27:31 And he also had made savoury meat, and brought it unto his father, and said unto his father, Let my father arise, and eat of his son's venison, that thy soul may bless me. GEN 27:32 And Isaac his father said unto him, Who art thou? And he said, I am thy son, thy firstborn Esau. GEN 27:33 And Isaac trembled very exceedingly, and said, Who? where is he that hath taken venison, and brought it me, and I have eaten of all before thou camest, and have blessed him? yea, and he shall be blessed. GEN 27:34 And when Esau heard the words of his father, he cried with a great and exceeding bitter cry, and said unto his father, Bless me, even me also, O my father. GEN 27:35 And he said, Thy brother came with subtilty, and hath taken away thy blessing. GEN 27:36 And he said, Is not he rightly named Jacob? for he hath supplanted me these two times: he took away my birthright; and, behold, now he hath taken away my blessing. And he said, Hast thou not reserved a blessing for me? GEN 27:37 And Isaac answered and said unto Esau, Behold, I have made him thy lord, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants; and with corn and wine have I sustained him: and what shall I do now unto thee, my son? GEN 27:38 And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept. GEN 27:39 And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above; GEN 27:40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck. GEN 27:41 And Esau hated Jacob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Jacob. GEN 27:42 And these words of Esau her elder son were told to Rebekah: and she sent and called Jacob her younger son, and said unto him, Behold, thy brother Esau, as touching thee, doth comfort himself, purposing to kill thee. GEN 27:43 Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; arise, flee thou to Laban my brother to Haran; GEN 27:44 And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother's fury turn away; GEN 27:45 Until thy brother's anger turn away from thee, and he forget that which thou hast done to him: then I will send, and fetch thee from thence: why should I be deprived also of you both in one day? GEN 28:9 Then went Esau unto Ishmael, and took unto the wives which he had Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael Abraham's son, the sister of Nebajoth, to be his wife. GEN 33:1 And Jacob lifted up his eyes, and looked, and, behold, Esau came, and with him four hundred men. And he divided the children unto Leah, and unto Rachel, and unto the two handmaids. GEN 35:29 And Isaac gave up the ghost, and died, and was gathered unto his people, being old and full of days: and his sons Esau and Jacob buried him. GEN 36:1 Now these are the generations of Esau, who is Edom. GEN 36:2 Esau took his wives of the daughters of Canaan; Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Aholibamah the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon the Hivite; GEN 36:3 And Bashemath Ishmael's daughter, sister of Nebajoth. GEN 36:4 And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel; GEN 36:5 And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these are the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan. GEN 36:6 And Esau took his wives, and his sons, and his daughters, and all the persons of his house, and his cattle, and all his beasts, and all his substance, which he had got in the land of Canaan; and went into the country from the face of his brother Jacob. GEN 36:7 For their riches were more than that they might dwell together; and the land wherein they were strangers could not bear them because of their cattle. GEN 36:8 Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom. GEN 36:9 And these are the generations of Esau the father of the Edomites in mount Seir: GEN 36:10 These are the names of Esau's sons; Eliphaz the son of Adah the wife of Esau, Reuel the son of Bashemath the wife of Esau. GEN 36:11 And the sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho, and Gatam, and Kenaz. GEN 36:12 And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these were the sons of Adah Esau's wife. GEN 36:13 And these are the sons of Reuel; Nahath, and Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah: these were the sons of Bashemath Esau's wife. GEN 36:14 And these were the sons of Aholibamah, the daughter of Anah the daughter of Zibeon, Esau's wife: and she bare to Esau Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah. GEN 36:15 These were dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz the firstborn son of Esau; duke Teman, duke Omar, duke Zepho, duke Kenaz, GEN 36:16 Duke Korah, duke Gatam, and duke Amalek: these are the dukes that came of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these were the sons of Adah. GEN 36:17 And these are the sons of Reuel Esau's son; duke Nahath, duke Zerah, duke Shammah, duke Mizzah: these are the dukes that came of Reuel in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Bashemath Esau's wife. GEN 36:18 And these are the sons of Aholibamah Esau's wife; duke Jeush, duke Jaalam, duke Korah: these were the dukes that came of Aholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau's wife. GEN 36:19 These are the sons of Esau, who is Edom, and these are their dukes. GEN 36:40 And these are the names of the dukes that came of Esau, according to their families, after their places, by their names; duke Timnah, duke Alvah, duke Jetheth, GEN 36:41 Duke Aholibamah, duke Elah, duke Pinon, GEN 36:42 Duke Kenaz, duke Teman, duke Mibzar, GEN 36:43 Duke Magdiel, duke Iram: these be the dukes of Edom, according to their habitations in the land of their possession: he is Esau the father of the Edomites. DEU 2:5 Meddle not with them; for I will not give you of their land, no, not so much as a foot breadth; because I have given mount Seir unto Esau for a possession. 1CH 1:34 And Abraham begat Isaac. The sons of Isaac; Esau and Israel. 1CH 1:35 The sons of Esau; Eliphaz, Reuel, and Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah. 1CH 1:36 The sons of Eliphaz; Teman, and Omar, Zephi, and Gatam, Kenaz, and Timna, and Amalek. 1CH 1:37 The sons of Reuel; Nahath, Zerah, Shammah, and Mizzah. JER 49:8 Flee ye, turn back, dwell deep, O inhabitants of Dedan; for I will bring the calamity of Esau upon him, the time that I will visit him. JER 49:10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is spoiled, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and he is not. OBA 1:6 How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up! OBA 1:10 For thy violence against thy brother Jacob shame shall cover thee, and thou shalt be cut off for ever. OBA 1:11 In the day that thou stoodest on the other side, in the day that the strangers carried away captive his forces, and foreigners entered into his gates, and cast lots upon Jerusalem, even thou wast as one of them. OBA 1:12 But thou shouldest not have looked on the day of thy brother in the day that he became a stranger; neither shouldest thou have rejoiced over the children of Judah in the day of their destruction; neither shouldest thou have spoken proudly in the day of distress. OBA 1:13 Thou shouldest not have entered into the gate of my people in the day of their calamity; yea, thou shouldest not have looked on their affliction in the day of their calamity, nor have laid hands on their substance in the day of their calamity; OBA 1:14 Neither shouldest thou have stood in the crossway, to cut off those of his that did escape; neither shouldest thou have delivered up those of his that did remain in the day of distress. OBA 1:18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the LORD hath spoken it. OBA 1:19 And they of the south shall possess the mount of Esau; and they of the plain the Philistines: and they shall possess the fields of Ephraim, and the fields of Samaria: and Benjamin shall possess Gilead. OBA 1:21 And saviours shall come up on mount Zion to judge the mount of Esau; and the kingdom shall be the LORD'S. MAL 1:2 I have loved you, saith the LORD. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the LORD: yet I loved Jacob, ROM 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated. HEB 11:20 By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau concerning things to come. HEB 12:16 Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. ============================== THE LECTRONIC IBRARY ECHANGE P.O.
