Genesis 22:10

Context
22:10 Then Abraham reached out his hand, took the knife, and prepared to slaughter 1  his son.

Genesis 25:25

Context
25:25 The first came out reddish 2  all over, 3  like a hairy 4  garment, so they named him Esau. 5 

1 tn Heb “in order to slaughter.”

2 sn Reddish. The Hebrew word translated “reddish” is אַדְמוֹנִי (’admoni), which forms a wordplay on the Edomites, Esau’s descendants. The writer sees in Esau’s appearance at birth a sign of what was to come. After all, the reader has already been made aware of the “nations” that were being born.

3 tn Heb “all of him.”

4 sn Hairy. Here is another wordplay involving the descendants of Esau. The Hebrew word translated “hairy” is שֵׂעָר (sear); the Edomites will later live in Mount Seir, perhaps named for its wooded nature.

5 tn Heb “And they called his name Esau.” The name “Esau” (עֵשָׂו, ’esav) is not etymologically related to שֵׂעָר (sear), but it draws on some of the sounds.
