Hear me out. Jacob is Aaron from the future. In the coming years, he's going to learn what happened to Claire and Kate who in his future never came back from the island. Aaron becomes increasingly obsessed with getting to the island to reunite with his two mothers and with the help of Future Walt, he is able to estimate the opening of a window in space-time that allow him to go to the island. So Jacob goes through the window hoping to find Claire and Kate only the twist is that the window sends him to the island thousands of years in the past when the island was settled by Egyptians. Aaron calls himself Jacob to prevent any problems with the timeline. Jacob becomes chosen by the island to be its immortal guardian so he can create a break between it and Egypt, an action that made the island so difficult to locate. As time goes by, Jacob uses his position to run experiments with outsiders who he allow to arrive on the island. The point of these experiments is to prove Esau wrong about humanity's destructive nature and to put together a plan to get his mothers and the rest of the survivors off the island when they arrive there in 2004.
When they do arrive, mishaps occur because of Ben's selfish desire to save himself from dying of cancer and Esau pulling strings in his plan to find the loophole that will allow him to get rid of Jacob once and for all. Fearing that Esau may have a chance at killing him, Jacob had a contigency plan put in place if he dies when he astral projected himself to different places and points in time to touch Jack, Kate, Sayid, Hurley, Sun, Jin, and Locke and to give Illana her new mission in life.
Jacob has the same powers as Walt and is able to astral project himself in other places like him. Walt is suppose to represent Aaron's future and be there to help Aaron get to the island. Walt helps Aaron because he believes his father is on the island thanks to the lie Hurley told him about his father being alive and wants Aaron to bring him back to the outside world when he can.
If Esau being capable of assuming the forms of dead people was the one who warned Kate not return to Aaron and is keeping Claire on the island, he may have done so because though he's plotting for his release from him, he is still enslaved to Jacob's will. Jacob wants his younger self off the island either in case his plan doesn't work and he'll able to get another chance at getting things right or he'll be safe from what else is going to happen in his plan. And he wants Claire kept hidden from the others because he wants her safe long so when she gets released, she'll be able to get off the island somehow and return to the outside world to resume being a mother to him.
And I think the first episode of Season 6 opens with Aaron waking up the island after passing through the window. That's whose eye is opening in the teaser for the final season.
