Genesis Chp 28 Verses 1, 7-9

Gen 28:1 And IsaacH3327 calledH7121 H413 Jacob,H3290 and blessedH1288 him, and chargedH6680 him, and saidH559 unto him, Thou shalt notH3808 takeH3947 a wifeH802 of the daughtersH4480 H1323 of Canaan.H3667

Gen 28:7 And that JacobH3290 obeyedH8085 H413 his fatherH1 and his mother,H517 and was goneH1980 to Padanaram;H6307

Gen 28:8 And EsauH6215 seeingH7200 thatH3588 the daughtersH1323 of CanaanH3667 pleased notH7451 H5869 IsaacH3327 his father;H1

Gen 28:9 Then wentH1980 EsauH6215 untoH413 Ishmael,H3458 and tookH3947 untoH5921 the wivesH802 which he had(H853) MahalathH4258 the daughterH1323 of IshmaelH3458 Abraham'sH85 son,H1121 the sisterH269 of Nebajoth,H5032 to be his wife.H802

Charged: tsâvâh,tsaw-vaw', A primitive root; (intensively) to constitute, enjoin: - appoint, (for-) bid. (give a) charge, (give a, give in, send with) command (-er, ment), send a messenger, put, (set) in order.

Isaac charged Jacob to not marry any one of the Canaanite woman, and he obeyed, Esau then realized his mistake of marrying a Canaanite woman, went ahead and married Ishmael’s daughter, he thought in this way atleast he would receive some blessings from his father, weird, how in order to correct one mistake we go ahead and make another mistake, without even consulting advise.
