It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
Note 5 at Rom. 9:12: There is no record in scripture that the individual Esau ever served the individual Jacob. However, Esau's posterity did serve Jacob's posterity (1 Chr. 18:13). Although Paul is making reference to the actual birth of these two individuals, the prophecy given to Rebecca and its fulfillment are referring to the nations which came from these men.
