창세기 33:12-15 KRV

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 33:12

And he ( i . e . Esau) said (in further token of his amity), Let us take our journey, and let us go ,—but whether he intended to accompany Jacob on his way (Keil, Kalisch, et alii ) or invited Jacob to go with him to Mount Seir (Ainsworth, Clericus) is uncertain. On the first hypothesis it is difficult to explain how Esau came to be traveling in the same direction as his brother, while the adoption of the second will serve in some measure to elucidate Jacob's language in Genesis... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 33:12

Worldly companionship. "And he said, Let us take our journey, and let us go, and I will go before thee." The offer probably made with kindly intention. No sign of bitterness in Esau's feelings; but ignorance of the necessities of Jacob's march. Jacob knew it was not possible with safety (cf. Psalms 137:4 ; 1 Peter 4:4 ). Reminds us of the attitude of many worldly persons towards Christians. "The carnal mind is enmity against God." Yet worldly men may have sincere regard for Christian... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 33:13

And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender (Joseph at this time being little over six years of age), and the flocks and herds with young (literally, giving milk; עַלוֹת , from עוּל , to give suck) are with me ,—literally, upon me , i . e . are an object of my special care, because of their condition (Rosenmüller, Keil)— and if men should over-drive them literally, and they (sc. the shepherds) will over-drive them, i . e . in order to keep... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 33:14

Let my lord, I pray thee ,—it is perhaps too much to explain Jacob's obsequious and deferential address to his brother (my lord) as the sign of a guilty conscience (Kalisch, Alford), when possibly politeness and humility will suffice— pass over —not cross the Jordan (Afford), since Esau was not journeying to Canaan; but simply pass on, as in Genesis 33:3 — before his servant: and I will lead on softly (literally, I will go on at my slow pace ), according as the cattle that... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - Genesis 33:15

And Esau said, Let me now leave (literally, set, or place ) with thee (as an escort or guard) some of the folk — i.e. armed followers ( vide Genesis 33:1 )— that are with me . But of even this proposal Jacob appears to have been apprehensive. And he said, What needeth it ! (literally, For what, or wherefore, this? ) let me find grace in the sight of my lord— meaning either, I am satisfied, since thou art gracious to me (Vatablus),—ἱκανὸν ὅτι ευ}ron... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 33:12

Genesis 33:12. Let us go, I will go before thee He offers himself to be Jacob’s guide and companion, in token of a sincere reconciliation. We do not find that Jacob and Esau were ever before so loving with one another as they were now. God had made Esau, not only not an enemy, but a friend. He is become fond of Jacob’s company, and invites him to go along with him to mount Seir. Let us never despair of any, nor distrust God, in whose hands all hearts are. read more

Genesis 33:14. Until I come unto my lord, to mount Seir As no mention is made of it, many writers think, that, for some reasons, Jacob never went to mount Seir to see Esau. Certainly it is very doubtful whether he ever did. It cannot be supposed however, that he would delay so long as the time mentioned in the twenty-fifth chapter before he went to see his father. read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 33:15

Genesis 33:15. He said, What needeth it? Esau having offered some of his men to be his guard and convoy, Jacob humbly refuses his offer. He is under the divine protection, and needs no other. Those are sufficiently guarded who have God for their guard, and are under a convoy of his hosts, as Jacob was. Jacob adds only, Let me find grace in the sight of my lord Having thy favour, I have all I need, all I desire from thee. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Genesis 33:1-17

Meeting with Esau (33:1-17)Jacob may have had a dramatic spiritual experience with God, but he still had to face Esau the next day. He took precautions to protect his family against any possible hostility, then went ahead to meet Esau personally (33:1-3). Esau showed a generous spirit of forgiveness, with the result that the dreaded meeting proved to be a happy reunion. Jacob had gained Esau’s birthright and blessing by cunning and deceit, but he was not allowed to enjoy them fully till he... read more
