Raw Blame History

Jacob came to Isaac

In some languages, it might be more natural to say: “Jacob went to Isaac.”

When Isaac felt the goat hair and smelled the clothes, he thought it was Esau and blessed him.

This is a sequential clause. The word When connects Isaac feeling and smelling Jacob with the resulting action (he believed it was Esau and blessed him). (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/grammar-connect-time-sequential)

he thought it was Esau

He thought that the person he was touching and smelling was Esau.
