Isaac Blesses Jacob
21Then Isaac said to Jacob, “Please come closer so I can touch you, my son. Are you really my son Esau, or not?”22So Jacob came close to his father Isaac, who touched him and said, “The voice is the voice of Jacob, but the hands are the hands of Esau.”23Isaac did not recognize him, because his hands were hairy like those of his brother Esau; so he blessed him.
