Jacob and Esau were born at enmity. Jacob came out of the womb on Esau’s heel. By the time their father dies, they are allies. Isaac breathes his last and is gathered to his people.

Here we see something about the afterlife, or is it still a precursor to actual life. Even prior to Christ’s sacrifice, there is a place for the people of God. Isaac is gathered to Abraham’s side with others who died true people of God the world over. There is no soul sleep. The essence of the person lives on even when the body dies.
