Charles Ellicott Commentary Genesis 37:1

"And Jacob dwelt in the land of his father`s sojournings, in the land of Canaan." — Genesis 37:1 (ASV)

And Jacob ... — This verse is not the beginning of a new section, but the conclusion of the Tôldôth Esau. In Genesis 36:6, we read that Esau went into a land away from Jacob. Upon this follows in Genesis 37:8, And Esau dwelt in Mount Seir; and now the necessary information concerning the other brother is given to us, And Jacob dwelt in the land ... of Canaan. In the Hebrew the conjunctions are the same.
