Bible Question (short): The Esau and Ishmael connection? |
Question (full): Esau married Ishmael's daughter (she may have even been his firstborn as Nebaioth, his firstborn son, is mentioned here). According to this verse, can the prophecies in Scripture concerning Edom (Obadiah for example)also be applied to the descendants of Ishmael? |
