The words "Edom" and "Edomites" appear 120 in the O.T.</li><li>Se'ir -- Seir, a mountain range in Edom</li></ul>Further study:<ul><li>Old Testament:<ul><li>Genesis 25:24-34. (Scriptures in this podcast are from the [Holman] Christian Standard Bible.)</li><li>Re: 24:34 -- Proverbs 30:20, Isaiah 22:13, 1 Corinthians 15:32b, Ecclesiastes 8:15. See also 1 John 2:15-17, 1 Peter 1:18, and Hebrews 11:25.</li><li>Genesis 27:1-4, 29-41.</li><li>Esau is potential to be a "second Cain" (cp. Genesis 4).</li><li>Obadiah (about the vengeance of Edom -- the descendants of Esau -- on Judah in 587/586 BC, when God punished Judah through the Babylonians). See also Jeremiah 49.</li><li>Genesis 33:1-17</li><li>Genesis 35:29 -- see 25:9.</li><li>Genesis 36:1-9, 43</li><li>Esau is also mentioned in Deuteronomy 2, Joshua 24, 1 Chronicles 1, and Malachi 1.</li></ul></li><li>The New Testament:<ul><li>Romans 9:13 and Hebrews 11:20 (no commendation)</li><li>Hebrews 12:16-17</li></ul></li></ul>Some things we learn about God:<ul><li>When we choose pleasure over principle, the people of the world over the people of God, impulse over rationalist, we forfeit God's blessings.</li><li>Godlessness separates us from God and his goodness.</li><li>Sometimes God's people are not as nice as those who are not his people. (Esau seems the more fun, relatable, happy-go-lucky of the two brothers; Jacob was more uptight, driven by fear, and calculating.) This shows us that God's grace isn't based on works, personality, character, or merit.</li></ul>For kids:<ul><li>Read part of Genesis
