Gen 27:15 · Douay-Rheims
“And she put on him very good garments of Esau, which she had at home with her:”
On this verse:
“The fact that Jacob wears the robe signifies that the Word has been clothed by the flesh, while the skins of the kids wrapped around his arms show that he has received in himself all our sins by stretching his hands and arms on the cross, as Isaiah himself has said: "He has borne our sins and carried our diseases."”
