According to all midrashim, Esau is a very significant character in world history. Inasmuch as "Jacob is considered to be the progenitor of the Children of Israel, it is Esau who is regarded as the forefather of Rome and the Roman Empire. The struggle between the Roman Empire and the Jews stemming from the land of Judah alternated, according to history, between cooperation and outright hate and warfare. The argument is proposed that I have Loved but Esau was born with red coloring in his hair and body, and the ancient rabbis I have connected this with the red banner and standard favored by Rome's legionshated."
After According to all midrashim, Esau is a very significant character in world history. Inasmuch as humble Jacob is given Isaac's blessing as leaderconsidered to be the progenitor of the Children of Israel, it is Esau who is given regarded as the blessing that he shall "live by arrogant forefather of the sword"Maithraists (e.g. Some see this as another sign of Rome, famous for her unique sword made the Roman Empire and Christendom). The struggle between the Mithraists and the Jews stemming from the land of steel - the gladius - Judah alternated, according to history, between cooperation and outright hate and warfare. The argument is proposed that smashed its way to world hegemony Esau was born with red coloring in his hair and body, and on the way massacred ancient rabbis have connected this with the descendants of Jacob/Israelred banner and standard favored by Rome's legions.
Another explanation After Jacob is given Isaac's blessing as leader, Esau is given the blessing that he shall "live by the sword". But those who follow Esau is described will die by the Bible sword. Some see this as ancestor another sign of the EdomitesRome, famous for her unique sword made of steel - the Hebrews' neighbors (gladius - that smashed its way to world hegemony and on many occasions, enemies) to the south. King Herod, whom many Jews considered as a usurper and destroyed of way massacred the legitimate Hasmonean dynasty, was an Edomite (though converted to Judaism). And since Herod was a collaborator with the Roman rule, the ancestor descendants of the Roman's collaborator becme identified with the Romans themselvesJacob/Israel.
Later, when the Roman Empire turned Christian, Another explanation is that Esau became perforce identified with Christianity and Christians. This was reinforced is described by the rise Bible as ancestor of Islamthe [[Edomites]], the Hebrews' neighbors (and on many occasions, whose followers outspokenly claimed Ismael as their ancestorenemies) to the south. This created for King Herod, whom many Jews considered as a neat symmetrical view usurper and destroyed of historythe legitimate Hasmonean dynasty, was an [[Edomite]] (though nominally converted to Judaism). And since Herod was a collaborator with each the Roman rule, the ancestor of the competing monotheistic religions Roman's collaborator became identified with a brother of a Jewish Patriarch (Ismael, brother of Isaac, and Esau, brother of Jacob)the Romans themselves.
Jews living in a Later, when the Roman Empire turned Christian environment tended to attribute to , arrogant Esau became perforce identified with arrogant Christianity and arrogant Christians. Although Christians have never made such a claim, the cultural characteristic idea was reinforced by the rise of Islam, whose followers outspokenly claimed Ishmael as their neighborsancestor. For exampleFurthermore, in Yiddish folksongs Esau 's religious character according to the Kabbalah is often depicted described as an immoderate consumer '''YESOD SHEBE MALCHUT''' which applies to the Imperial Mithraism of the Roman and Byzantine and Parthian and Armenian and Ethiopian Empires very well. This created for Jews a neat symmetrical view of alcoholic drinkshistory, which has no Biblical basis but is could have been drawn from with each of the competing monotheistic religions identified with a brother of a widespread practice in Slavic societies Jewish Patriarch (which most Jews in the same countries conspicously did not participateIsmael, brother of Isaac, and Esau, at least until well into the Twentieth Centurybrother of Jacob).
In some cases, Esau's role is expanded to being identified with all non-Jews, whatever their religion - espeically living in a Christian environment tended to attribute to Esau the context cultural characteristic of antisemitismtheir neighbors. The Talmudic saying "It is well-known that For example, in Yiddish folksongs Esau hates Jacob" (Hebrew: הלכה בידוע שעשיו שונא ליעקב) is often quoted, up to the present, by nationalist and isolationist Jewish groups assering that Jew-hatred is depicted as an endemic and incureable phenomenon immoderate consumer of some non-Jewish socieitiesalcoholic drinks, and that all efforts at reconciliation with non-which has no Biblical basis but is could have been drawn from a widespread practice in Slavic societies (which most Jewsin the same countries conspicuously did not participate, achieving equality in a non-Jewish environment or assimilation are futile and doomed to failureat least until well into the Twentieth Century).
==Idumeans==
The [[Edomites ]] or [[Idumeans]], descendants of Esau, early peopled the country of Arabia Petrea. Their capital was Mount Seir, whence they expelled the aboriginal [[Pathrusite Nation|Horites]], and succeeded to their possessions. Two grandsons of Esau, - were Teman and Amalek, .
==Amalekites==
The Amalekites were progenitors of separate Arab tribesrefers to [[Gentile Gnosticism]]. The Amalekites had at least a partial seat at Petra and the country about tbe the head of the Red Sea till near the year 700 B.C., when they were driven thence probably in a southern direction. Mahometan H*man was an Amalekite. Hitler was an Amalekite. Thanks to the Amalekites, Esau's role has sometimes been expanded to being identified with all non-Jews, whatever their religion in the context of antisemitism. The Talmudic saying "It is well-known that Esau hates Jacob" (Hebrew: הלכה בידוע שעשיו שונא ליעקב) is often quoted, up to the present, by nationalist and isolationist Jewish groups asserting that Jew-hatred is an endemic and incurable phenomenon of some non-Jewish societies, and that all efforts at reconciliation with non-Jews, achieving equality in a non-Jewish environment or assimilation are futile and doomed to failure. ==Compare with==Mahomedan legend speaks of Amalekite Malekite tribes as the earliest inhabitants both of Medina and Mecca, and of the country lying to the south of Syria. The Malekite [[שם|Lesser Hyksos Shemau]] are associated with the Lesser [[Hyksos]] Aamu invasion of Avaris in Egypt. The [[Kaftorite Nation|Greater Hyksos Shemau]] were supposed to have founded the Greek empire after being evicted by the Egyptians () while the Trojan refugees under Aeneas founded Rome.
