Gênesis 37:18-36 NVIPT

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 37:34

‘And Jacob tore his clothes and put sackcloth on his loins and mourned for his son for many days. And all his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted, and he said, “For I will go down to the grave (sheol) to my son mourning.” And his father wept for him.’ And the Medanites sold him into Egypt, to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh’s, the captain of his bodyguard.’ The contrast is striking and deliberate. On the one hand the grief-stricken father mourning... read more

Cast him into some pit; partly, as unworthy of burial; partly, to cover their villanous action; and partly, that they might quickly put him out of their sight and minds. Some evil beast hath devoured him, there being great store of such creatures in those parts. See 1 Kings 13:24; 2 Kings 2:24. read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 37:21

He delivered him, as to the violent and certain despatch of his life which was intended. Or the act is here put for the purpose and endeavour of doing it, in which sense Balak is said to fight against Israel, Joshua 24:9, and Abraham to offer up Isaac, Hebrews 11:17. So here, he delivered him, i.e. used his utmost power to deliver him, that so he might recover his father’s favour lost by his incestuous action. read more

They sat down to eat bread, to refresh themselves, their consciences being stupified, and their hearts hardened against their brother, notwithstanding all his most passionate entreaties to them, Genesis 42:21. Ishmeelites; the posterity of Ishmael. See Genesis 25:18. Gilead, a famous place for balm, and other excellent commodities, and for the confluence of merchants. See Jeremiah 8:22; Jeremiah 22:6.

If we suffer him to perish in the pit, when we may sell him with advantage, and conceal his blood, i.e. his death, as the word blood is often used. See Deuteronomy 17:8; 2 Samuel 1:16; 2 Samuel 3:28. read more

This story seems a little involved, and the persons to whom he was sold doubtful. Here seem to be two, if not three, sorts of merchants mentioned, Ishmeelites and Midianites here, and Medanites, as it is in the Hebrew, Genesis 37:36, which were a distinct people from the Midianites, as descended from Medan, when the Midianites descended from Midian, both Abraham’s sons, Genesis 25:2. The business may be accommodated divers ways; either, 1. The same persons or people are promiscuously called... read more

Reuben returned unto the pit, that, according to his brethren’s order, Genesis 37:27, he might take him thence and sell him. He rent his clothes, as the manner was upon doleful occurrences. See below, Genesis 37:34; Numbers 14:6; Ezra 9:3; Job 1:20; Job 2:12. read more

He calls him the child comparatively to his brethren, though he was seventeen years old, Genesis 37:2. The child is not, i.e. is not in the land of the living, or is dead, as that phrase is commonly used, as Genesis 42:13,Genesis 42:36, compared with Genesis 44:20; Job 7:21; Jeremiah 31:15; Lamentations 5:7; Matthew 2:18. I, whither shall I go, either to find the child, or to flee from our father? He is more solicitous than the rest, because he being the eldest brother, his father would require... read more
