3331. Verse 34 And Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil pottage; and he ate, and drank, and he rose up, and went. And Esau despised the birthright.

'Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil pottage' means that the good of life was given the good of truth and the good of doctrine. 'And he ate, and drank' means taking to oneself. 'And he rose up' means a consequent raising up. 'And went' means life. 'And Esau despised the birthright' means that the good of life did not in the meantime attach any importance at all to priority of place.
