Once when Jacob was boiling pottage, Esau came in from the field, and he was famished. And Esau said to Jacob, Let me eat some of that red pottage, for am famished!. . . Jacob said First sell me your birthright. Esau said, I am about to die; of what use is a birthright to me? Jacob said, Swear to me first. So he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob.... Thus Esau despised his birthright [Gen. 25: 29-34
