This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Gen_25:25 And the first came out red, all over like an hairy garment; and they called his name Esau.
Ver. 25. And the first came out red.] Red and rough, cruel and crafty, as that red old dragon {Rev_12:3} who inhabited in him, and both acted and agitated him. {Eph_2:2} Ab ascensore suo daemone perurgebatur, saith Bernard. And so are those Romish Edomites, Esauites, Jesuites, &c.
And they called his name Esau.] Factus et perrictus pilis, a bearded man, one that had everything more like a man than a babe; a manly child.
