-Exodus 6:16-26***Esau (Edom) and Jacob (Israel) were the fraternal twin sons born to Isaac and Rebekah. Isaac was the only child born  Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai). The Lord God gave Mount Seir and its region to Esau and his descendants. The Lord God gave Canaan, the Promised Land, to Abraham, and Isaac, and to Jacob, and their descendants. Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Dan, Naphtali, Gad, Asher, Issachar, Zebulun, Joseph, and Benjamin were the sons born to Jacob and his wives Leah and Rachel and maidservants Bilhah and Zilpah.

Over 1,400 years after Miriam died and was buried in Kadesh in the desert wilderness of Zin, and Aaron died and was buried upon Mount Hor, and Moses went upon Mount Nebo, saw the Promised Land, died, and was divinely buried, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 3:1-4:49, 12:1-16, 20:1-29, 26:1-65, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 6:1-81, 23:1-32, Matthew,Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
