1 Mose 25:25

25 Der erste, der herauskam, war rötlich, ganz rauh wie ein Fell; und sie nannten ihn Esau.

3311. 'And Jacob was a blameless man' means truth. This is clear from the representation of 'Jacob' as the doctrine of natural truth, 3305, and from the meaning of 'blameless' as that which is used to refer to those governed by truth, and so to refer to truth, 612.
