Genesis 27:23

New International Version

He did not recognize him, for his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he proceeded to bless him.

See the chapter Copy

Jacob said to Rebekah his mother, “But my brother Esau is a hairy man while I have smooth skin.

She also covered his hands and the smooth part of his neck with the goatskins.

Jacob went close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”

“Are you really my son Esau?” he asked. “I am,” he replied.

By faith Isaac blessed Jacob and Esau in regard to their future.
