Esau descendants are very similar to Adam's - the curse has fallen on them all. And, as with all humanity, when they are passed over and left to themselves, they all perish without God in their own rebellion (Acts 14 ; Psalm 147:19 ; Genesis 25-27 ; Romans 9 ; Obadiah ; Isaiah 34 ; Jeremiah 49)

Pride is not picky...
Pride couldn't care less about your humble beginnings, honored past or lifelong humble service to God and men.
You can be ignorant or brilliant or dumb as a box of rocks... pride doesn't care and it doesn't care how you got to it.
It pays no attention to how dirty and poor you may be or how wise, famous and wealthy you may be.

Pride shows no partiality... like a nasty flesh eating buzzard, it doesn't matter how it died, it just loves death and feeding on rotten relationships. Don't let pride pick you apart—one irritating piece at a time—until all you have is one wrecked relationship after another. And don't let the pride buzzards consume you before there is nothing left. ... Always remember, Jesus raises the dead and He always lift those who are humble and contrite in spirit….
