How old was Jacob from the Bible?

Answer:

Isaac was 60 years old when Jacob and Esau were born. At the time of the story of the deception of Jacob in obtaining the birthright, Isaac was 137 years old. Therefore, Jacob and Esau at that time were 77 years old each.

Jacob was 147 at the time of his death in Egypt.
