When Esau and Jacob parted company, Esau took the land formerly claimed by Lot near Sodom. Coincidence? Probably not.

Esau's descendants followed his example. They built kingdoms and cities long before his brother Jacob did, but they burned out quickly. They were now-people. Where is Edom today and where is Israel?
