There is debate as to the contrast of words translated here in verse 2 which seems a bit strong. But in the OT on many occasions, the verb used here for hate has the basic meaning of 'not to choose.' Esau sold his birthright opportunity for a meal to satisfy his hunger showing little respect for such a great blessing from the Creator. God shows his love for Jacob by extending His grace and giving the Covenant to Jacob and his descendants in Genesis 25:21-26, Isaiah 44:1-5. In His sovereign purpose, God set His love upon the one brother and not the other. The term 'hate' may carry the idea of indifference and can also be translated as 'love less.'
