27:35But Isaac68 replied, “Your brother came in here deceitfully and took away69 your blessing.” 27:36Esau exclaimed, “ ‘Jacob’ is the right name for him!70 He has tripped me up71 two times! He took away my birthright, and now, look, he has taken away my blessing!” Then he asked, “Have you not kept back a blessing for me?”
Footnotes
- 68 Heb “and he said”; the referent (Isaac) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
- 69 Or “took”; “received.”
- 70 Heb “Is he not rightly named Jacob?” The rhetorical question, since it expects a positive reply, has been translated as a declarative statement.
- 71 He has tripped me up. When originally given, the name Jacob was a play on the word “heel” (see Gen 25:26). The name (since it is a verb) probably means something like “may he protect,” that is, as a rearguard, dogging the heels. This name was probably chosen because of the immediate association with the incident of grabbing the heel. Esau gives the name “Jacob” a negative connotation here, the meaning “to trip up; to supplant.”
