Some recalled you as extremely hairy man (4)
I believe the answer is:
esau
'hairy man' is the definition.
(hairy son of Isaac in the Bible)
'some recalled you as extremely' is the wordplay.
'recalled' says the letters should be written in reverse (to recall can mean to bring something back).
'some' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue (some parts of the word are used).
'uase' can be found hidden inside 'you as extremely'.
'uase' written backwards gives 'ESAU'.
(Other definitions for esau that I've seen before include "Jacob's twin (Bible)" , "Old Testament character sounds as if he had a vision" , "Hairy brother to Jacob in Bible" , "Elder of the twin sons of Isaac and Rebecca" , "Cheated brother" .)
