Genesis 25:27-30

27 The boys grew. Esav was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Ya`akov was a quiet man, living in tents.
28 Now Yitzchak loved Esav, because he ate his venison. Rivka loved Ya`akov.
29 Ya`akov boiled stew. Esav came in from the field, and he was famished.
30 Esav said to Ya`akov, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom.
