Genesis 27:40
You will live by the sword
and you will serve your brother.
But when you grow restless,
you will throw his yoke
from off your neck."

In the reading and studies I have done, I believe that eventually, from the descendants of Esau came the Islamic faith. It appears to be true due to Jacob's words to Esau, saying that Esau would "live by the sword." Today we witness so much terrorism that the enemy, Satan, has planted in that lineage. There was surely deception on the side of Jacob as well but we know that the Israelites came through the line of Jacob. These are my understandings of Esau's line, though I cannot prove these assumptions but from what I have read, they appear to be verified by others.

Lloyd I'm not sure those are the words of Jacob "live by the sword" if you go back to verse 39 Isaac speaking and he is speaking in verse 40? Genesis 27: 39-40 And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, they dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven above. (40) And by the sword shalt thou live, and thou Serve thy Brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that shall break his yoke from off thy neck. (King James) Check this out Esau The Ancestor of Rome- The Torah.com. Blessing Hope you had a great visit with your son.

You mean to say I finally blew one. Thanks Peter, I'll check that again. Not sure what's up today but the weather sure acts differently in this part of the nation. Yesterday we were downtown Calgary and it was about 85 degrees and by the time we drove about 20 minutes to our son's residence, it had dropped to 70 degrees. Weather coming from the Rocky Mountains can change in a flash. Have a great weekend Peter. :-)
