Connection with the short accounts in Genesis
Genesis tells the side lines first and briefly. Ishmael's account gets seven verses (Genesis 25:12–18), then this heading opens Isaac's account, which runs to the end of chapter 35. Esau gets one chapter (Genesis 36) before Jacob's account fills the rest of the book.
