Genesis 25:28-30

Expanded Bible

²⁸ Isaac loved Esau because ·he hunted the wild animals that Isaac enjoyed eating [^Lgame was in his (Isaac’s) mouth]. But Rebekah loved Jacob.

²⁹ One day Jacob was ·boiling a pot of vegetable soup [or preparing stew]. Esau came in from hunting in the fields, ·weak from hunger [famished; starving]. ³⁰ So Esau said to Jacob, “Let me ·eat [gulp down] some of that red ·soup [or stuff], because I am ·weak with hunger [famished; starving].” (That is why people call him Edom [^Csounds like Hebrew for “red”].)
