Toldot 

Description

The opening story in Parashat Toledot includes the birth and career choices of Yaakov and Esav. The next chapter, Beresheet 26, details Yitzhak and Rivkah's time in Philistia (Gerar) where they appear to be a youngish couple without children. A proposal for a re-sequencing of the events is offered, with a rationale for the Torah's order of presentation.
