Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 49:1

Genesis 49:1. Gather yourselves together It was his will that they should all be sent for to see their father die, and to hear his dying words. It would be a comfort to him, who had sometimes thought himself bereaved, to see all his children about him when he was dying, and he hoped it would be a blessing to them to attend him in his last moments, and witness his confidence and hope in God, the serenity and peace of mind in which he could quit this world and all its concerns, to enter the... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - Genesis 49:2

Genesis 49:2. Hearken, unto Israel your father This chapter calls for our strictest attention, for it contains a number of predictions which were to be fulfilled at distant periods, through a long succession of ages; things depending upon so many various circumstances, upon such remote causes, so hid to all human view, so contrary to all appearances at the time they were spoken of, that it was impossible for any foresight or sagacity of man so much as to conjecture or imagine them. And yet... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Genesis 49:1-28

Blessings on Jacob’s twelve sons (49:1-28)The last words of Jacob to his sons found their fulfilment in the history of Israel’s twelve tribes (49:1-2). First Jacob dealt with the six sons of Leah (see v. 3-15), then with the four sons of the minor wives (see v. 16-21), and finally with the two sons of Rachel (see v. 22-27).Reuben should have been strong, but through lack of self-control he lost the leadership of the nation (3-4; cf. 35:22). Simeon and Levi had been violent, and their tribes... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Genesis 49:1

"And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the latter days."In this great chapter, distinguished by one of the most marvelous of all the Messianic prophecies, we are confronted at the outset by the arrogant denial of critics that this account is trustworthy. Dummelow's comment is typical: "This chapter gives us indeed the last utterances of the dying patriarch respecting the future of his sons, but with additions and... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - Genesis 49:2-3

"Assemble yourselves, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; And hearken unto Israel your father. Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength. The pre-eminence of dignity and the pre-eminence of power."The natural love of Jacob for his firstborn appears in this. God had promised Jacob to make of him a great nation, and Reuben was the beginning of the fulfillment. But, alas, the firstborn, in this instance, was not destined to live up to all the high hopes that his father had... read more

Genesis 49:1. Called— Jacob, sensible that his last hour drew near, and having made an end of blessing Joseph's two sons, as is related at length in the preceding chapter, now calls all his sons together, that he may take his farewel of them. That which shall befall you— We have in Scripture many instances of fathers summoning their children, or magistrates the people under their charge, to attend to their last words, ch. Genesis 27:4. 1 Kings 2:1.Joshua 23:0; Joshua 23:0; Joshua 24:0. where... read more

Genesis 49:2. Gather yourselves together— Jacob received a double blessing, spiritual and temporal, the promise of the land of Canaan, and the promise of the seed in which all the nations of the earth should be blessed; which promises were first made to Abraham, then repeated to Isaac, and afterward confirmed to Jacob; and Jacob, a little before his death, bequeaths the same to his children. The temporal blessing, or inheritance of the land of Canaan, might be shared and divided among all his... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - Genesis 49:1

1. Jacob called unto his sons—It is not to the sayings of the dying saint, so much as of the inspired prophet, that attention is called in this chapter. Under the immediate influence of the Holy Spirit he pronounced his prophetic benediction and described the condition of their respective descendants in the last days, or future times. Genesis 49:3; Genesis 49:4. REUBEN forfeited by his crime the rights and honors of primogeniture. His posterity never made any figure; no judge, prophet, nor... read more
