I've been wondering, what's the difference between the Arabs and the
Palestinians? I've heard that the Arabs are descended from Ishamael
(Abraham's firstborn) and that the Palestinians are descended from (Esau,
the twin brother of Jacob, Isaac's children (Ishmael's nephews).
Could someone shed some light on the subject because in most of my reading,
the terms are used interchangeably, but there must be a fundamental
difference.
Thanks.
