Esau
Esau (; Hebrew: ; Standard Hebrew: ''Esav''; Tiberian Hebrew: (unicode:ʿĒśāw); ISO 259-3 ''ʕeśaw''; (ギリシア語:Ἡσαῦ) ''Hēsau''; (アラビア語:عِيسُو) ''‘Īsaw''; meaning "Hairy"〔Easton, M. ''Illustrated Bible Dictionary'', (ISBN 1596059478, ISBN 978-1-59605-947-4 ), 2006, p.236〕 or "Rough"),〔Mandel, D. The Ultimate Who's Who in the Bible, (ISBN 0882703722, ISBN 978-0-88270-372-5), 2007, p. 175〕 in the Jewish Bible, is the older son of Isaac. He is mentioned in the Book of Genesis, and by the prophets, Obadiah and Malachi. The New Testament of the Christian Bible alludes to him in St Paul's Letter to the Romans and in the Letter to the Hebrews.
Esau is the progenitor of the Edomites and the elder twin brother of Jacob, the patriarch of the Israelites.〔Metzger & Coogan (1993). ''Oxford Companion to the Bible'', pp. 191–2.〕 Esau and Jacob were the sons of Isaac and Rebekah, and the grandsons of Abraham and Sarah. Of the twins, Esau was the first to be born with Jacob following, holding his heel (the Hebrew name Yaacov meaning "Heel-holder"). Isaac was sixty years old and Rebekah is believed to have been younger when the boys were born. The grandfather Abraham was still alive, being 160 years old at that time.
Esau, a "man of the field" became a hunter〔 who had "rough"〔 qualities that distinguished him from his twin brother. Jacob was a shy or simple man, depending on the translation of the Hebrew word "Tam" (which also means "relatively perfect man").〔 Throughout Genesis, Esau is frequently shown as being supplanted by his younger twin Jacob (Israel).〔Attridge & Meeks. ''The Harper Collins Study Bible'', (ISBN 0060786841, ISBN 978-0-06-078684-7 ), 2006, p. 40〕
