Esau.The word Esau has been generally considered to imply made, formed, or perfected; or perfect, robust, etc.
But it appears to be a dialectical variation of the Arabic atha, to be covered with hair; whence athai, hairy, as no doubt the word Esau imports, in allusion to the circumstance of his being covered with red hair or down at his birth.
Gn. 27:11,16,23• 11Y Jacob dijo á Rebeca su madre: He aquí Esaú mi hermano es hombre velloso, y yo lampiño:
 16E hízole vestir sobre sus manos y sobre la cerviz donde no tenía vello, las pieles de los cabritos de las cabras;
 23Y no le conoció, porque sus manos eran vellosas como las manos de Esaú: y le bendijo. (Gn. 27:11,16,23)
