Esau, a biblical figure from the Book of Genesis, is traditionally considered the ancestor of the Edomites, a group that settled in what is now southern Jordan. While some interpretations connect Esau to various ancient populations, there is no direct biblical or historical evidence linking him specifically to Arab ancestry. However, the Edomites were neighbors and often interacted with the ancient Israelites and other groups in the region, which could create some cultural overlaps. Overall, while Esau is not explicitly identified as part of Arab ancestry, his descendants, the Edomites, were part of the broader ancient Near Eastern context.
Isaac had two sons, Jacob and Esau. Jacob is the father of the Israelites (a.k.a. Jews), while Esau fathered the Edomites.
The BritishThe Africans who were sold into slavery were captured by their African enemies known as the Edomites. The captured slaves were the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Yacob (Jacob). They were called Israelites as a result of God changing the name of Yacob to Israel. The Israelites were given the land of Canaan to be their possession forever, but because of their constant disobedience to God's commands and laws, the Israelites lost the right to live there. God had promised the land of Canaan to Abraham and his descendants, but the enemies of the Israelites wanted the land for themselves: "The Lord spoke to me 'Mortal man' he said, 'the people who are living in the ruined cities of the land of Israel (the land belonging to Israel - which was Canaan)are saying: 'Abraham was only one man, and he was given the whole land. There are many of us, so now the land is ours.' (Ezekiel 33:23-24). Slavery was the final punishment for the Israelites. When the Edomites sold the Israelites to the Europeans, the Edomites claimed the land of Canaan as their own possession: "The Lord spoke to me 'Mortal man' he said, 'denounce the country of Edom. You were Israel's constant enemy and let her people be slaughtered in the time of her disaster, the time of final punishment for her sins.' (Ezekiel 35: 1,2,5).The Edomites benefited for a short time when they captured and sold the Israelites into slavery, but since that time Africa has been stripped bare by the Europeans. The scramble for Africa has seen the worlds richest continent robbed of its gold, silver, diamonds, oil, cocoa, coffee etc. These valuable commodities have been taken by the descendants of the very nations the Edomites had sold the Israelites to. Today, Africa is a continent ravished by starvation, pestilence, corruption, greed and war. The descendants of the African nations who sold God's people into slavery are suffering the consequences.

The Edomites were an ancient Semitic people mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, associated with the region of Edom, located south of ancient Israel. In present-day contexts, the term "Edomites" is not commonly used to refer to any specific group, as the Edomite culture and identity largely disappeared after the Babylonian conquest and subsequent historical events. Some scholars and historians may draw parallels between the Edomites and certain modern populations in the region, but there is no direct lineage or contemporary group that identifies as Edomites today.
Uz is often referred to as the dwelling place of the Edomites in biblical texts. It is mentioned in the Book of Job, where Job is described as being from the land of Uz.

The Edomites were a Semitic people. Their ancestors, like those of the Canaanites and Hebrews, are believed to have come from the Arabian peninsula.Genesis 36:1 gives their biblical ancestor as Edom, "who is Esau." Robert M.
