Story of Jacob

We begin with Isaac's sons from the People of the Book - the Bible and the Torah. The People of the Book, the Bible and the Torah, said that when Isaac was forty years old, he married Rebekah, Bint (daughter) Bethuel, during his father's (Abraham) life. They said she was sterile, so Isaac prayed to Allah and then she became pregnant. She gave birth to twin boys. The first one was called Esau whom the Arabs called Al-Eis. He became the father of Rum. The second one was called Jacob, which means Israel, (belonging to the people of Israel).
