Genesis 27:1-46

27:1

[A.M. 2244. B.C. 1760.]

almost <03543> [dim.]

hunt <06679 06718> [take me. Heb. hunt.]


27:4

eat <0398> [that I may eat.]

The blessing, says Dr. A. Clarke, which Isaac was to confer on his son, was a species of divine right, and must be communicated with appropriate ceremonies. As eating and drinking were used among the Asiatics on almost all religious occasions, and especially in making and confirming covenants, it is reasonable to suppose, that something of this kind was essentially necessary on this occasion; and that Isaac could not convey the right, till he had eaten of the meat provided for the purpose by him who was to receive the blessing.

<05315> [that my.]


27:7

27:8


27:9

two <08147> [two.]

tasty <04303> [savoury.]

{Matammim,} from {taam,} to taste or relish: how dressed is uncertain, but its name declares it nature.

27:14

mother <0517> [mother.]


27:15

best clothes <02532 0899> [goodly raiment. Heb. desirable.]

The Septuagint translates it "a goodly robe," which was a long garment that great men used to wear, (Lu 20:46; 15:22.) The priest afterwards in the law had "holy garments" to minister in, (Ex 28:2-4.) Whether the first-born before the law had such to minister in is not certain: for, had they been common garments, why did not Esau himself or his wives keep them? But being, in likelihood, holy robes, received from their ancestors, the mother of the family kept them in sweet chests, from moths and the like; whereupon it is said, (ver. 27,) "Isaac smelled the smell of his garments."


27:16

skins <05785> [skins.]

Travellers inform us, that the Eastern goats have long, fine, and beautiful hair, of the most delicate silky softness; indeed the animals generally in those hot countries are not covered with so thick a coat of hair as they are in more northerly regions; so that Isaac might easily be deceived, when his eyes were dim, and his feeling no less impaired than his sight.


27:19

Esau <06215> [I am.]

me <05315> [that thy.]

27:21

Come closer <05066> [Come.]

touch <04184> [may feel.]


27:22

voice <06963> [The voice.]

How wonderful, says Mr. Scott, is that difference which there is betwixt the faces and the voices of the several individuals of the human species! Scarcely any two of the innumerable millions are exactly alike in either, and yet the difference cannot be defined or described! The power, wisdom, and kindness of our Creator should be admired and adored in this remarkable circumstance; for they are very visible. This description of Jacob is not unaptly accommodated to the character of a hypocrite: his voice, his language, is that of a Christian; his hands, or conduct, that of an ungodly man: but the judgment will proceed from God, the Judge of all, at the last day, as in the present case, not by the voice, but by the hands.


27:23

hands ........ hands <03027> [his hands.]

scent ............ smells .... scent .... open field <07381 07704> [the smell of a field.]

A field where aromatic plants, flowers, fruits, and spices grew in abundance, with which these garments (see ver. 15) of Esau might probably have been perfumed by being laid up with them.

27:38


27:39

home <04186> [Behold.]

<04924> [the fatness. or, of the fatness.]

It is here foretold, says Bp. Newton, that as to temporal advantages, the two brothers should be much alike. (See ver. 28.) Esau had cattle, beasts, and substance in abundance, and he went to dwell in Mount Seir of his own accord. When the Israelites desired leave to pass through the territories of Edom, the country abounded with fruitful fields and vineyards. (Nu 20:17.)

Exodus 3:6

3:6

God ...... God ..... God ...... God ................ God <0430> [I am.]

father <01> [thy father.]

Though the word {avicha,} "thy father," is here used in the singular, yet St. Stephen, quoting this passage (Ac. 7:32), uses the plural, [Lo Theos ton patron sou,] "the God of thy fathers;" and that this is the meaning, the following words prove. This reading is confirmed by the Samaritan and Coptic.

hid <05641> [hid.]


Exodus 3:15

3:15

Lord <03068> [The Lord.]

name forever <05769 08034> [this is my name for ever.]

The name here referred to is that which immediately precedes, [yhwh,] <\\See definition 03068\\>,] {Yehowah,} which we translate "Lord", the name by which God had been known from the creation of the world, (Ge 2:2,) and by which he is known to the present day. [yhwh,] {Yehowah,} from [hwh,] {hawah,} to be, subsist, signifies "He who is", or "subsists", i.e., eminently and in a manner superior to all other beings; and is essentially the same with [ahwh,] {eheyeh,} "I AM", in the preceding verse.
