Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - Genesis 45:26

Genesis 45:26. Jacob's heart fainted— The Vulgate, and some others, render this passage, Jacob awoke, as it were, out of a dead sleep, yet he believed them not. The particle כי ki, rendered for in our version of the Bible, often signifies but, but yet, or although: and thus the meaning of the passage is, that though Jacob did not perfectly believe, or had not heard enough to be sufficiently confirmed in the belief of their words; yet the very hearing of Joseph's being yet alive, whom he thought... read more

Genesis 45:27. When he saw the waggons— The intelligence of his son Joseph was so unexpected, yet so important to the good old father, that he could scarcely be persuaded to believe the truth of it; nor could he be satisfied, without the convincing evidence of the magnificent presents which Joseph had sent him: then his spirit revived; i.e.. he not only recovered perfectly from his fainting fit, but was now raised to greater life and vigour than he had felt since the loss of Joseph. Pristino... read more

Genesis 45:28. Israel said, it is enough— Two things his sons told him, says Bishop Kidder, viz. that Joseph was alive, and that he was governor of AEgypt; and the latter of the two Joseph required them to tell his father, Gen 45:9 but, for Joseph's glory and dominion, Jacob does not rejoice as one greatly affected with it. It was his life gave him the joy: he said, It is enough; Joseph, my son, is yet alive! Nothing can more beautifully and nobly express the sentiments of a tender parent, than... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Genesis 45:16-28

Israel’s decision to move to Egypt 45:16-28Pharaoh’s invitation was as generous as it was because Pharaoh held Joseph in high regard. This is another excellent example of hospitality: giving the best that one has to a starving and needy family. Pharaoh’s invitation was an invitation, not a command. Pharaoh had no authority to command Jacob to move into Egypt. Jacob was free to accept or reject this offer. If Jacob chose to accept it, he would be free to return to Canaan whenever he chose. The... read more

11. Israel’s move to Egypt 45:16-46:30Joseph’s brothers returned to Jacob with news of Joseph’s survival and prosperity. Israel (Jacob) then moved to Egypt in response to Joseph’s invitation and God’s encouragement. The survival of Jacob’s family in Egypt through the famine recalls the survival of Noah’s family in the ark through the Flood. read more

John Dummelow's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 45:1-28

Joseph makes Himself known to his Brethren. Pharaoh invites Jacob and his Family to Settle in Egypt5-7. Joseph declares that the events of the past all witnessed to the providential care of God. 6. Earing] i.e. ploughing, cognate with Lat. aro, ’I plough.’ The word is now obsolete. 8. A father to Pharaoh] a title of honour and respect: cp. Isaiah 22:21.10. The land of Goshen] This was a fertile district of N. Egypt, lying to the E. of the Nile between Zagazig and Tel-el Kebir, 40m. NE. of... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Genesis 45:26

(26) Jacob’s heart fainted.—Heb., grew cold. This was not the effect of incredulity or suspicion, but of surprise. Jacob, crushed by the loss of the child who had taken the place of his beloved Rachel in his heart, had nothing left to interest him except Benjamin. When, therefore, the news come that Joseph still lives, his mind cannot open itself to receive the joyful tidings, and their first effect is to chill him with a renewed sense of his loss. It is only when he sees the wagons, and other... read more

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers - Genesis 45:28

(28) And Israel said.—We must not lay too much stress upon this change of name, as though it were a title appropriate to the patriarch only in his happier and triumphant hours; for in Genesis 45:6 it-is given him in the midst of his distress. It rather shows that the names were long both in use as regards the patriarch personally, but as the title of Israel was alone given to Jacob’s family, it is plain that a high significance was attached to it, and that the inheritance of the Abrahamic... read more

Genesis 45:5 'The case of Themistocles was almost like that of Joseph; on being banished into Egypt he also grew in favour with the king, and told his wife "he had been undone, unless he had been undone". For God esteems it one of His glories that He brings good out of evil; and therefore it were but reason we should trust God to goven His own world as He pleases; and that we should patiently wait till the change cometh, or the reason be discovered.'

THE RECONCILIATIONGenesis 45:1-28By faith Joseph, when he died, made mention of the departing of the children of Israel and gave commandment concerning his bones.-{; Hebrews 11:22}IT is generally by some circumstance or event which perplexes, troubles, or gladdens us, that new thoughts regarding conduct are presented to us, and new impulses communicated to our life. And the circumstances through which Joseph’s brethren passed during the famine not only subdued and softened them to a genuine... read more
