# to Esau his son ... to Jacob her son
Esau and Jacob were both sons of Isaac and Rebekah. They are called "his son" and "her son" to emphasize that one parent preferred one son over the other son.
# See here
The phrase "see here" adds emphasis to what follows. AT: "Listen carefully"
# He said, 'Bring me game and make me delicious food, that I may eat it and bless you in the presence of Yahweh before my death.'
This is a quotation within a quotation. It can be stated as an indirect quotation. AT: "He told Esau to 'hunt a wild animal, and to make the tasty meat that he loves.' Then before he dies, Isaac will bless Esau in the presence of Yahweh." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-quotesinquotes]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-quotations]])
