Genesis 25:26-28
International Children’s Bible
26 When the second baby was born, he was holding on to Esau’s heel. So that baby was named Jacob.[a] Isaac was 60 years old when they were born.
27 When the boys grew up, Esau became a skilled hunter. He loved to be out in the fields. But Jacob was a quiet man. He stayed among the tents. 28 Isaac loved Esau. Esau hunted the wild animals that Isaac enjoyed eating. But Rebekah loved Jacob.
