Genesis 25:23-25

25:23

Two nations ....... two <01471 08147> [Two nations.]

Two ........ two <08147> [two manner.]

older <07227> [the elder.]


25:25

Esau <06215> [Esau.]

The word Esau has been generally considered to imply made, formed, or perfected; or perfect, robust, etc. But it appears to be a dialectical variation of the Arabic atha, to be covered with hair; whence athai, hairy, as no doubt the word Esau imports, in allusion to the circumstance of his being covered with red hair or down at his birth.
