because their sons each acted more like the other

Each son had qualities that appealed to either Isaac or Rebekah. "The boys grew up, and Esau became a skilled hunter, a man who loved the outdoor life, but Yacob was a quiet man who stayed at home. Isaac preferred Esau, because he enjoyed eating the animals Esau killed, but Rebecca preferred Yacob." (Genesis 25:27-28).
