And I gave to Isaac Jacob and Esau. And I gave to Esau the hill country of Seir to possess, but Jacob and his children went down to Egypt.
Do not provoke or stir them up, for I will not give you of their land, no, not enough for the sole of your foot to tread on, for I have given Mount Seir to Esau for a possession.
So Esau dwelt in the hill country of Seir; Esau is Edom.
And Jacob went down into Egypt, where he himself died, as did [also] our forefathers; [Deut. 10:22.]
Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham. [Gen. 46:6.]
And Jacob sent messengers before him to Esau his brother in the land of Seir, the country of Edom.
Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. [Deut. 28:4.]
And this is the history of the descendants of Esau the father of the Edomites in the hill country of Seir.
