So I don't see any reason for juxtaposing what Paul said and the verse you quoted.
Its irrelevant for a multitude of reasons.
I hope that is considered me touching your point.
Its invalid.

I don't know if you don't get the point or if you just chose to continue ignoring the point.
I will try again, "if you can hate your immediate family members and still please God then the word hate does not mean what we general understand it to mean.
Likewise, God does not hate Esau in that manner either.
