Genesis 26:13 - Exposition

And the man waxed great, —like his father before him (cf. Genesis 24:1 , Genesis 24:35 )— and went forward ,—literally, went going , the verb followed by the infinitive expressing constant growth or progressive increase (cf. Genesis 8:3 ; Genesis 12:9 ; 4:24 )— and grew until he became very great— "as any other farmer would who reaped such harvests" ('Land and Book').
