“Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright.”
See that no one becomes like Esau, an immoral and godless person, who sold his birthright for a single meal — Esau (Genesis 25:29-34) became the type of the apostate: traded eternal blessing for immediate gratification. Godless (bebēlos, literally 'accessible to all', profane) describes one who has abandoned sacred privilege.
