For a number of years I have wondered about the translation of TAM describing Jacob in Gen. 25:27. In contrast to Esau, a hunter and man of the field, Jacob is described as being ISH TAM dwelling in tents.
Is there justification for translating TAM as:
ESV: quiet
NET: even-tempered
NKJV: mild
Tyndale: simple
new JPS: mild
