Ob 1:6 How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!
When we read Romans 9 we see Aluahym's eternal purpose in declaring "Yaqoob have I loved, but Esau have I hated"
Ro 9:11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of Aluahym according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)
12 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13 As it is written, Yaqoob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
When we read the scriptures above our focus has always been on 'election by grace' on an individual level. While the individual perspective is true because Yaqqob and Esau were real men and blood brothers and an example for those elected for salvation by grace and those damned, there is a wider perspective because they both represent TWO NATIONS.
Ge 25:21 And Isaac intreated the YAHUAH for his wife, because she was barren: and YAHUAH was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
22 And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the YAHUAH.
23 And the YAHUAH said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.
Lu 21:10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
When we read Rom 9 with the wider perspective of Aluahym's eternal purpose by seeing that before these TWO NATIONS were brought forth Aluahym declared the separation of these two nations from the mother's womb. Rebekah being a type of the Woman who was to bring forth the man child also brought forth a seed which was carnal and would be at war with her godly seed all throughout time.
In our previous studies we have seen how the tables turn around when Esau of whom it was said "The elder shall serve the younger" would break the yoke of his brother Jacob off his neck and HE SHALL HAVE THE DOMINION.
Ge 27:38 And Esau said unto his father, Hast thou but one blessing, my father? bless me, even me also, O my father. And Esau lifted up his voice, and wept.
39 And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.
41 ¶ And Esau hated Yaqoob because of the blessing wherewith his father blessed him: and Esau said in his heart, The days of mourning for my father are at hand; then will I slay my brother Yaqoob.
Heb 11 states that Issac BLESSED Yaqoob and Esau concerning things to come. ESAU BLESSED?
Heb 11:20 By faith Isaac blessed Yaqoob and Esau concerning things to come.
That's exactly what Heb 11:20 says that Esau was blessed.
To see this blessing we must examine the words that Isaac spoke to both Yaqoob and Esau in Gen 27:26-29 & Gen 27:39
Yaqoob's blessing: Ge 27:26 And his father Isaac said unto him, Come near now, and kiss me, my son.
27 And he came near, and kissed him: and he smelled the smell of his raiment, and blessed him, and said, See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which YAHUAH hath blessed:
28 Therefore Aluahym give thee of the dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth, and plenty of corn and wine:
29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.
Esau's blessing: Gen 27:39And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.
Yaqoob's blessing and Esau's blessing at a first glance may seem to have one thing common 'Dew of heaven, and the fatness of the earth' but if we understood it this way it would contradict what Aluahym through the 'spirit of prophecy' was saying to both Yaqoob and Esau. A closer examination of the passages would show us clearly the difference. Here it is.
to Jacob Gen 27:28 Aluahym would GIVE THEE ...
to Esau Behold THY DWELLING SHALL BE...
Yaqoob was GIVEN and Esau would DWELL in that which was given to his brother. Two nations in a womb and separated in the last time as wheat is separated from tares. Moreover the verse says Yaqoob would get plenty of CORN AND WINE while this was absent from the blessing of Esau. The wider perspective is clearly seen and now understood as stated in the opening verse of this study
Ob 1:6 How are the things of Esau searched out! how are his hidden things sought up!
Of Esau it is said in the previous verses that his Dwelling was in the clefts of the rock, his habitation was high. That's because of his brother Jacob
Ob 1:3 The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground?
Song of Solomon a book professing the love between Messiah and his elect, prophetically Messiah the husband is telling his bride that she is in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs. That's where the elect dwell i.e. IN MASHIYACH.
Song 2:14 ¶ O my dove, that art in the clefts of the rock, in the secret places of the stairs, let me see thy countenance, let me hear thy voice; for sweet is thy voice, and thy countenance is comely.
Let's read parallel verses from Jeremiah 49
Jer 49:10 But I have made Esau bare, I have uncovered his secret places, and he shall not be able to hide himself: his seed is spoiled, and his brethren, and his neighbours, and he is not.
11 Leave thy fatherless children, I will preserve them alive; and let thy widows trust in me.
12 For thus saith YAHUAH; Behold, they whose judgment was not to drink of the cup have assuredly drunken; and art thou he that shall altogether go unpunished? thou shalt not go unpunished, but thou shalt surely drink of it.
13 For I have sworn by myself, saith YAHUAH, that Bozrah shall become a desolation, a reproach, a waste, and a curse; and all the cities thereof shall be perpetual wastes.
14 I have heard a rumour from YAHUAH, and an ambassador is sent unto the heathen, saying, Gather ye together, and come against her, and rise up to the battle.
15 For, lo, I will make thee small among the heathen, and despised among men.
16 Thy terribleness hath deceived thee, and the pride of thine heart, O thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, that holdest the height of the hill: though thou shouldest make thy nest as high as the eagle, I will bring thee down from thence, saith YAHUAH.
Bozrah was a place in Edom and Esau was the father of Edom.
Ge 36:43 Duke Magdiel, duke Iram: these be the dukes of Edom, according to their habitations in the land of their possession: he is Esau the father of the Edomites.
Ge 36:8 Thus dwelt Esau in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.
That's where the false brethren dwelt, in the clefts of the rock and holding the height of the hill till Aluahym brings them down from there and uncovers Esau's secret places.
Speaking of Edom's judgment Aluahym's word speaks of Messiah making his garments red with the blood of those who dwell in Edom as treading in a winefat.
Isa 63:1 ¶ Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
2 Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?
3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
4 For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.
Ps 137:7 ¶ Remember, O YAHUAH, the children of Edom in the day of Yarashalam; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
The blessing of Esau was in his dwelling in the tents of his brother Jacob until he would be searched out to be seen as small among the heathen, the nation which came out from Abraham's loins.
Ob 1:2 Behold, I have made thee small among the heathen: thou art greatly despised.
Ge 17:6 And I will make thee exceeding fruitful, and I will make nations of thee, and kings shall come out of thee.
Ob 1:18 And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for YAHUAH hath spoken it.
When we read Romans 9 we see Aluahym's eternal purpose in declaring "Yaqoob have I loved, but Esau have I hated"
Ro 9:11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of Aluahym according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;)
12 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13 As it is written, Yaqoob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

22 And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the YAHUAH.
23 And the YAHUAH said unto her, Two nations are in thy womb, and two manner of people shall be separated from thy bowels; and the one people shall be stronger than the other people; and the elder shall serve the younger.

29 Let people serve thee, and nations bow down to thee: be lord over thy brethren, and let thy mother's sons bow down to thee: cursed be every one that curseth thee, and blessed be he that blesseth thee.
Esau's blessing: Gen 27:39And Isaac his father answered and said unto him, Behold, thy dwelling shall be the fatness of the earth, and of the dew of heaven from above;
40 And by thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother; and it shall come to pass when thou shalt have the dominion, that thou shalt break his yoke from off thy neck.
