The Nations of Esau: Ancient Times

Edomite elements were later to be found amongst colored peoples but on the whole Esau (Edom) is of Caucasian type and proud of it.

Esau was also known as Edom. He gave rise to the Edomite Nations. One of the Edomite peoples created a small kingdom to the southeast of Judah. The region known as Edom contained only a small portion of the Edomite people. There were however several Edomite polities and groups of Edomites that merged with other nations often as the military elites and aristocracy.

EDOMITES.

DUKE MAGDIEL [Genesis 36:43] one of the early leaders of Edom was the real founder of Rome according to tradition.

Early Rulers of Edom were to be found in Mesopotamia e.g. Saul of Rehoboth on the River (Genesis 36:31-43).

Descendants of Esau settled in Babylon and in some of the Phoenician Cities such as Tyre. Both Babylon and Tyre in Scripture are associated with Edom.

According to Don Isaac Abarbanel (1437-1508) a tradition existed that many of the early Christians were Edomites.

Additional answer:

To be a 'descendant', you have to come AFTER someone...so your question is probably:

'Did Esau descend from Babylon's founders?'.

Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, Japheth.

Nimrod (the founder of Babel (Babylon)) descended from Ham(Genesis 10:6-10)

Esau (son of Abraham) descended from Shem (Genesis 11:10-27)

If you go far enough back, we're ALL related. We ALL come from the same original two. But Esau is not in Nimrod's specific lineage....they would be distant cousins.

Does the Arab and Israeli conflict go back to the time of Jesus and the Romans?

It goes back farther than that. It goes back to Jacob and Esau and their uncle Ishmael. It was the descendants of Esau's grandson, Amalek, (the Amalekites) who attacked the Israelites as they were coming out of Egypt. That happened over 3400 years ago. During the time of Jesus and the Romans, the Harod kings were descendants of Esau. The Israelites didn't appreciate being ruled by their antagonistic, "Jewish-in-name-only" 'relatives' much less the Roman 'foreigners.'


Where did Esau move to?

Esau took his family to the land of Seir (Genesis ch.36), where he intermarried with the Horites and gradually became dominant. This is the region of Petra, in southern Jordan, east of the Dead Sea, whose ruins can still be seen. Later, some or all of the descendants of Esau moved to Italy (Rashi commentary, Genesis 27:39), where they became (or joined) the Patrician class of Rome.


Was Jacob and Esau Jesus Descendants?

Jesus had no children according to the Bible or scriptures. He was never married because he was a virgin and his purpose was to offer himself as a sacrifice for the remission of sins of Israel.

However, Jesus was a descendant of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob then from one of the 12 Sons of Jacob name Judah and onward to Joseph the husband of Mary. Referrence: Matthew Chapter 1-16.
