The Book of Isaiah Chapter 1 V.1 Part 4.6
The Book of Isaiah
Chapter 1 V.1 Part 4.6
Now, I can’t see where any of this self-sufficient effort profited him anything. Let’s see what was spawned from the bonds of self-sufficiency.
Gen 36:4 And Adah bare to Esau Eliphaz; and Bashemath bare Reuel;
Gen 36:5 And Aholibamah bare Jeush, and Jaalam, and Korah: these [are] the sons of Esau, which were born unto him in the land of Canaan.
Gen 36:12 And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau’s son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these [were] the sons of Adah Esau’s wife.
Gen 36:15 These [were] dukes of the sons of Esau: the sons of Eliphaz (my God is (fine) gold ) the firstborn [son] of Esau; duke Teman, duke Omar, duke Zepho, duke Kenaz,
Gen 36:16 Duke Korah, (bald) duke Gatam, [and] duke Amalek: these [are] the dukes [that came] of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these [were] the sons of Adah.
Gen 36:17 And these [are] the sons of Reuel Esau’s son; duke Nahath, duke Zerah, duke Shammah, duke Mizzah: these [are] the dukes [that came] of Reuel in the land of Edom; these [are] the sons of Bashemath Esau’s wife.
Gen 36:18 And these [are] the sons of Aholibamah Esau’s wife; duke Jeush, duke Jaalam, duke Korah: these [were] the dukes [that came] of Aholibamah the daughter of Anah, Esau’s wife.
Gen 36:19 These [are] the sons of Esau, who [is] Edom, and these [are] their dukes.
Esau = “hairy”
Adah = “ornament”
Eliphaz = “my God is (fine) gold”
Teman = “south”
Omar = “speaker” or “eloquent”
Zepho or Zephi = “watch-tower”
Gatam = “a burnt valley”
Kenaz = “hunter”
Timna or Timnah = “restrained”
Amalek = “dweller in a valley”
Ishmael = “God will hear”
Nebaioth or Nebajoth = “heights
Bashemath or Basmath = “spice”
Reuel or Raguel = “friend of God”
Nahath = “rest”
Zerah or Zarah = “rising”
Shammah = “astonishment”
Mizzah = “fear”
Zibeon = “coloured” Hivite = “villagers”
Anah = “answer”
Aholibamah = “tent of the high place”
Jeush = “assembler”
Jaalam = “concealed”
Korah = “bald”
From what I see here, this is indicative that there is no one that is not redeemable to some extent, because I see “my God is (fine) gold” and a “friend of God” among his descendants. There is evidence of “rest” amid “rising” “astonishment” and “fear.” One could also surmise that a “speaker” was “south” in a “watch tower” of “a burnt valley” where a “hunter” resides. Then again, one might say a “bald” “assembler” was “concealed,” but who really knows?

But later in the scriptures Esau is used to illustrate one who is not in the will of God. He sells his birthright…for soup. Interesting study there!
