Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

מִכְרָ֥⁠ה & אֶת־בְּכֹֽרָתְ⁠ךָ֖ לִֽ⁠י

sell, & DOM birthright_of,your to=me

Make sure it is clear in your translation that Jacob was offering the stew as payment for Esau’s birthright as the firstborn son. In Hebrew culture the firstborn son inherited twice as much as the rest of the children in the family (Deuteronomy 21:15-17). That information could be put in a footnote so that people understand what Esau was selling for a bowl of stew. Alternate translation: “give your birthright to me in exchange for some stew” or “trade your rights as the firstborn son to me for some stew then I will give you some.”

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

25:27-34 Jacob and Esau each developed in accord with his initial characteristics (25:24-26). Esau, the reddish, hairy man, cared about physical things rather than spiritual things (see Heb 12:16); he was finally overcome by physical appetites and sold his birthright. Jacob, the heel grabber, knew the birthright’s value and drove a ruthless bargain to gain it presumptuously from his brother.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
