I never paid attention to this detail until I started writing my latest book, so I would not be surprised if lots of people were not aware. They are talked about in Genesis 25. What strikes me the most, in light of marriage in the Bible, is how he disowns the first family and pretends the third are people he does not need to see as his descendants. He gives those sons gifts, but he "gives all that he had to Isaac." Fascinating.

"Biblical marriage" is not off to a very good start, eh?
