Jacob Steals Esau's Blessing
23 He didn't recognize Jacob, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau, so Isaac blessed him. 24 He asked, "Are you really my son Esau?" "I am," Jacob replied. 25 "Come closer to me," Isaac replied, "so I can eat some of the game, my son, and then bless you." So Jacob came closer, and Isaac ate. Jacob also brought wine so his father could drink.
