And the LORD ^H3068 spake ^H1696 unto Moses, ^H4872 saying, ^H559 Make ^H6213 thee two ^H8147 trumpets ^H2689 of silver; ^H3701 of a whole piece ^H4749 shalt thou make ^H6213 them: that thou mayest use ^H1961 them for the calling ^H4744 of the assembly, ^H5712 and for the journeying ^H4550 of the camps. ^H4264 And when they shall blow ^H8628 with them, ^H2004 all the assembly ^H5712 shall assemble ^H3259 themselves to thee at the door ^H6607 of the tabernacle ^H168 of the congregation. ^H4150 And if they blow ^H8628 but with one ^H259 trumpet, then the princes, ^H5387 which are heads ^H7218 of the thousands ^H505 of Israel, ^H3478 shall gather ^H3259 themselves unto thee.

^H3212 but I will depart ^H3212 to mine own land, ^H776 and to my kindred. ^H4138 And he said, ^H559 Leave ^H5800 us not, I pray thee; forasmuch as thou knowest ^H3651 ^H3045 how we are to encamp ^H2583 in the wilderness, ^H4057 and thou mayest be to us instead of eyes. ^H5869 And it shall be, if thou go ^H3212 with us, yea, it shall be, that what goodness ^H2896 the LORD ^H3068 shall do ^H3190 unto us, the same will we do ^H2895 unto thee. And they departed ^H5265 from the mount ^H2022 of the LORD ^H3068 three ^H7969 days' ^H3117 journey: ^H1870 and the ark ^H727 of the covenant ^H1285 of the LORD ^H3068 went ^H5265 before ^H6440 them in the three ^H7969 days' ^H3117 journey, ^H1870 to search out ^H8446 a resting place ^H4496 for them. And the cloud ^H6051 of the LORD ^H3068 was upon them by day, ^H3119 when they went out ^H5265 of the camp. ^H4264 And it came to pass, when the ark ^H727 set forward, ^H5265 that Moses ^H4872 said, ^H559 Rise up, ^H6965 LORD, ^H3068 and let thine enemies ^H341 be scattered; ^H6327 and let them that hate ^H8130 thee flee ^H5127 before ^H6440 thee.

Notwithstanding the land ^H776 shall be divided ^H2505 by lot: ^H1486 according to the names ^H8034 of the tribes ^H4294 of their fathers ^H1 they shall inherit. ^H5157 According ^H6310 to the lot ^H1486 shall the possession ^H5159 thereof be divided ^H2505 between many ^H7227 and few. ^H4592 And these are they that were numbered ^H6485 of the Levites ^H3881 after their families: ^H4940 of Gershon, ^H1648 the family ^H4940 of the Gershonites: ^H1649 of Kohath, ^H6955 the family ^H4940 of the Kohathites: ^H6956 of Merari, ^H4847 the family ^H4940 of the Merarites. ^H4848 These are the families ^H4940 of the Levites: ^H3881 the family ^H4940 of the Libnites, ^H3846 the family ^H4940 of the Hebronites, ^H2276 the family ^H4940 of the Mahlites, ^H4250 the family ^H4940 of the Mushites, ^H4188 the family ^H4940 of the Korathites. ^H7145 And Kohath ^H6955 begat ^H3205 Amram. ^H6019 And the name ^H8034 of Amram's ^H6019 wife ^H802 was Jochebed, ^H3115 the daughter ^H1323 of Levi, ^H3878 whom her mother bare ^H3205 to Levi ^H3878 in Egypt: ^H4714 and she bare ^H3205 unto Amram ^H6019 Aaron ^H175 and Moses, ^H4872 and Miriam ^H4813 their sister. ^H269 And unto Aaron ^H175 was born ^H3205 Nadab, ^H5070 and Abihu, ^H30 Eleazar, ^H499 and Ithamar. ^H385 And Nadab ^H5070 and Abihu ^H30 died, ^H4191 when they offered ^H7126 strange ^H2114 fire ^H784 before ^H6440 the LORD. ^H3068 And those that were numbered ^H6485 of them were twenty ^H6242 and three ^H7969 thousand, ^H505 all males ^H2145 from a month ^H2320 old ^H1121 and upward: ^H4605 for they were not numbered ^H6485 among ^H8432 the children ^H1121 of Israel, ^H3478 because there was no inheritance ^H5159 given ^H5414 them among ^H8432 the children ^H1121 of Israel. ^H3478 These are they that were numbered ^H6485 by Moses ^H4872 and Eleazar ^H499 the priest, ^H3548 who numbered ^H6485 the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 in the plains ^H6160 of Moab ^H4124 by Jordan ^H3383 near Jericho. ^H3405 But among these there was not a man ^H376 of them whom Moses ^H4872 and Aaron ^H175 the priest ^H3548 numbered, ^H6485 when they numbered ^H6485 the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 in the wilderness ^H4057 of Sinai. ^H5514 For the LORD ^H3068 had said ^H559 of them, They shall surely ^H4191 die ^H4191 in the wilderness. ^H4057 And there was not left ^H3498 a man ^H376 of them, save Caleb ^H3612 the son ^H1121 of Jephunneh, ^H3312 and Joshua ^H3091 the son ^H1121 of Nun. ^H5126

Commentary on Genesis 46 Matthew Henry Commentary

John Gill Keil & Delitzsch Robert Jamieson: Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Chapter 46

Jacob is here removing to Egypt in his old age, forced thither by a famine, and invited thither by a son. Here,

I. God sends him thither (v. 1-4).
II. All his family goes with him (v. 5-27).
III. Joseph bids him welcome (v. 28-34).

Gen 46:1-4

The divine precept is, In all thy ways acknowledge God; and the promise annexed to it is, He shall direct thy paths. Jacob has here a very great concern before him, not only a journey, but a removal, to settle in another country, a change which was very surprising to him (for he never had any other thoughts than to live and die in Canaan), and which would be of great consequence to his family for a long time to come. Now here we are told,

I. How he acknowledged God in this way. He came to Beersheba, from Hebron, where he now dwelt; and there he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac, v. 1. He chose that place, in remembrance of the communion which his father and grandfather had with God in that place. Abraham called on God there (ch. 21:33), so did Isaac (ch. 26:25), and therefore Jacob made it the place of his devotion, the rather because it lay in his way. In his devotion,
- 1. He had an eye to God as the God of his father Isaac, that is, a God in covenant with him; for by Isaac the covenant was entailed upon him. God had forbidden Isaac to go down to Egypt when there was a famine in Canaan (ch. 26:2), which perhaps Jacob calls to mind when he consults God as the God of his father Isaac, with this thought, "Lord, though I am very desirous to see Joseph, yet if thou forbid me to go down to Egypt, as thou didst my father Isaac, I will submit, and very contentedly stay where I am.'
- 2. He offered sacrifices, extraordinary sacrifices, besides those at his stated times; these sacrifices were offered,
  - (1.) By way of thanksgiving for the late blessed change of the face of his family, for the good news he had received concerning Joseph, and for the hopes he had of seeing him. Note, We should give God thanks for the beginnings of mercy, though they are not yet perfected; and this is a decent way of begging further mercy.
  - (2.) By way of petition for the presence of God with him in his intended journey; he desired by these sacrifices to make his peace with God, to obtain the forgiveness of sin, that he might take no guilt along with him in this journey, for that is a bad companion. By Christ, the great sacrifice, we must reconcile ourselves to God, and offer up our requests to him.
  - (3.) By way of consultation. The heathen consulted their oracles by sacrifice. Jacob would not go till he had asked God's leave: "Shall I go down to Egypt, or back to Hebron?' Such must be our enquiries in doubtful cases; and, though we cannot expect immediate answers from heaven, yet, if we diligently attend to the directions of the word, conscience, and providence, we shall find it is not in vain to ask counsel of God.
II. How God directed his paths: In the visions of the night (probably the very next night after he had offered his sacrifices, as 2 Chr. 1:7) God spoke unto him, v. 2. Note, Those who desire to keep up communion with God shall find that it never fails on his side. If we speak to him as we ought, he will not fail to speak to us. God called him by name, by his old name, Jacob, Jacob, to remind him of his low estate; his present fears did scarcely become an Israel. Jacob, like one well acquainted with the visions of the Almighty, and ready to obey them, answers, "Here I am, ready to receive orders:' and what has God to say to him?
- 1. He renews the covenant with him: I am God, the God of thy father (v. 3); that is, "I am what thou ownest me to be: thou shalt find me a God, a divine wisdom and power engaged for thee; and thou shalt find me the God of thy father, true to the covenant made with him.'
- 2. He encourages him to make this removal of his family: Fear not to go down into Egypt. It seems, though Jacob, upon the first intelligence of Joseph's life and glory in Egypt, resolved, without any hesitation, I will go and see him; yet, upon second thoughts, he saw some difficulties in it, which he knew not well how to get over. Note, Even those changes that seem to have in them the greatest joys and hopes, yet have an alloy of cares and fears, Nulla est sincera voluptas-There is no unmingled pleasure. We must always rejoice with trembling. Jacob had many careful thoughts about this journey, which God took notice of.
  - (1.) He was old, 130 years old; and it is mentioned as one of the infirmities of old people that they are afraid of that which is high, and fears are in the way, Eccl. 12:5. It was a long journey, and Jacob was unfit for travel, and perhaps remembered that his beloved Rachel died in a journey.
  - (2.) He feared lest his sons should be tainted with the idolatry of Egypt, and forget the God of their fathers, or enamoured with the pleasures of Egypt, and forget the land of promise.
  - (3.) Probably he thought of what God had said to Abraham concerning the bondage and affliction of his seed (ch. 15:13), and was apprehensive that his removal to Egypt would issue in that. Present satisfactions should not take us off from the consideration and prospect of future inconveniences, which possibly may arise from what now appears most promising.
  - (4.) He could not think of laying his bones in Egypt. But, whatever his discouragements were, this was enough to answer them all, Fear not to go down into Egypt.
- 3. He promises him comfort in the removal.
  - (1.) That he should multiply in Egypt: "I will there, where thou fearest that thy family will sink and be lost, make it a great nation. That is the place Infinite Wisdom has chosen for the accomplishment of that promise.'
  - (2.) That he should have God's presence with him: I will go down with thee into Egypt. Note, Those that go whither God sends them shall certainly have God with them, and that is enough to secure them wherever they are and to silence their fears; we may safely venture even into Egypt if God go down with us.
  - (3.) That neither he nor his should be lost in Egypt: I will surely bring thee up again. Though Jacob died in Egypt, yet this promise was fulfilled,
    - [1.] In the bringing up of his body, to be buried in Canaan, about which, it appears, he was very solicitous, ch. 49:29, 32.
    - [2.] In the bringing up of his seed to be settled in Canaan. Whatever low or darksome valley we are called into at any time, we may be confident, if God go down with us into it, that he will surely bring us up again. If he go with us down to death, he will surely bring us up again to glory.
  - (4.) That living and dying, his beloved Joseph should be a comfort to him: Joseph shall put his hand upon thine eyes. This is a promise that Joseph should live as long as he lived, that he should be with him at his death, and close his eyes with all possible tenderness and respect, as the dearest relations used to do. Probably Jacob, in the multitude of this thought within him, had been wishing that Joseph might do this last office of love for him: Ille meos oculos comprimat-Let him close my eyes; and God thus answered him in the letter of his desire. Thus God sometimes gratifies the innocent wishes of his people, and makes not only their death happy, but the very circumstances of it agreeable.

Gen 46:5-27

Old Jacob is here flitting. Little did he think of ever leaving Canaan; he expected, no doubt, to die in his nest, and to leave his seed in actual possession of the promised land: but Providence orders it otherwise. Note, Those that think themselves well settled may yet be unsettled in a little time. Even old people, who think of no other removal than that to the grave (which Jacob had much upon his heart, ch. 37:35; 42:38), sometimes live to see great changes in their family. It is good to be ready, not only for the grave, but for whatever may happen betwixt us and the grave. Observe,

1. How Jacob was conveyed; not in a chariot, though chariots were then used, but in a wagon, v. 5. Jacob had the character of a plain man, who did not affect any thing stately or magnificent; his son rode in a chariot (ch. 41:43), but a wagon would serve him.
2. The removal of what he had with him.
- (1.) His effects (v. 6), cattle and goods; these he took with him that he might not wholly be beholden to Pharaoh for a livelihood, and that it might not afterwards be said of them, "that they came beggars to Egypt.'
- (2.) His family, all his seed, v. 7. It is probable that they had continued to live together in common with their father; and therefore when he went they all went, which perhaps they were the more willing to do, because, though they had heard that the land of Canaan was promised them, yet, to this day, they had none of it in possession. We have here a particular account of the names of Jacob's family, his sons' sons, most of whom are afterwards mentioned as heads of houses in the several tribes. See Num. 26:5, etc. Bishop Patrick observes that Issachar called his eldest son Tola, which signifies a worm, probably because when he was born he was a very little weak child, a worm, and no man, not likely to live; and yet there sprang from him a very numerous offspring, 1 Chr. 7:2. Note, Living and dying do not go by probability. The whole number that went down into Egypt was sixty-six (v. 26), to which add Joseph and his two sons, who were there before, and Jacob himself, the head of the family, and you have the number of seventy, v. 27. The Septuagint makes them seventy-five, and Stephen follows them (Acts 7:14), the reason of which we leave to the conjecture of the critics; but let us observe,
  - [1.] Masters of families ought to take care of all under their charge, and to provide for those of their own house food convenient both for body and soul. When Jacob himself removed to a land of plenty, he would not leave any of his children behind him to starve in a barren land.
  - [2.] Though the accomplishment of promises is always sure, yet it is often slow. It was now 215 years since God had promised Abraham to make of him a great nation (ch. 12:2); and yet that branch of his seed on which the promise was entailed had increased only to seventy, of which this particular account is kept, that the power of God in multiplying these seventy to so vast a multitude, even in Egypt, may appear the more illustrious. When God pleases, a little one shall become a thousand, Isa. 60:22.

Gen 46:28-34

We have here,

I. The joyful meeting between Jacob and his son Joseph, in which observe,
- 1. Jacob's prudence in sending Judah before him to Joseph, to give him notice of his arrival in Goshen. This was a piece of respect owing to the government, under the protection of which these strangers had come to put themselves, v. 28. We should be very careful not to give offence to any, especially not to the higher powers.
- 2. Joseph's filial respect to him. He went in his chariot to met him, and, in the interview, showed,
  - (1.) How much he honoured him: He presented himself unto him. Note, It is the duty of children to reverence their parents, yea, though Providence, as to outward condition, has advanced them above their parents.
  - (2.) How much he loved him. Time did not wear out the sense of his obligations, but his tears which he shed abundantly upon his father's neck, for joy to see him, were real indications of the sincere and strong affection he had for him. See how near sorrow and joy are to each other in this world, when tears serve for the expression of both. In the other world weeping will be restrained to sorrow only; in heaven there is perfect joy, but no tears of joy: all tears, even those, shall there be wiped away, because the joys there are, as no joys are here, without any alloy. When Joseph embraced Benjamin he wept upon his neck, but when he embraced his father he wept upon his neck a good while; his brother Benjamin was dear, but his father Jacob must be dearer.
- 3. Jacob's great satisfaction in this meeting: Now let me die, v. 30. Not but that it was further desirable to live with Joseph, and to see his honour and usefulness; but he had so much pleasure and satisfaction in this first meeting that he thought it too much to desire or expect any more in this world, where our comforts must always be imperfect. Jacob wished to die immediately, and lived seventeen years longer, which, as our lives go now, is a considerable part of a man's age. Note, Death will not always come just when we call for it, whether in a passion of sorrow or in a passion of joy. Our times are in God's hand, and not in our own; we must die just when God pleases, and not either just when we are surfeited with the pleasures of life or just when we are overwhelmed with its griefs.
II. Joseph's prudent care concerning his brethren's settlement. It was justice to Pharaoh to let him know that such a colony had come to settle in his dominions. Note, If others repose a confidence in us, we must not be so base and disingenuous as to abuse it by imposing upon them. If Jacob and his family should come to be a charge to the Egyptians, yet it should never be said that they came among them clandestinely and by stealth. Thus Joseph took care to pay his respects to Pharaoh, v. 31. But how shall he dispose of his brethren? Time was when they were contriving to get rid of him; now he is contriving to settle them to their satisfaction and advantage: This is rendering good for evil. Now,
- 1. He would have them to live by themselves, separate as much as might be from the Egyptians, in the land of Goshen, which lay nearest to Canaan, and which perhaps was more thinly peopled by the Egyptians, and well furnished with pastures for cattle. He desired they might live separately, that they might be in the less danger both of being infected by the vices of the Egyptians and of being insulted by the malice of the Egyptians. Shepherds, it seems, were an abomination to the Egyptians, that is, they looked upon them with contempt, and scorned to converse with them; and he would not send for his brethren to Egypt to be tramped upon. And yet,
- 2. He would have them to continue shepherds, and not to be ashamed to own that as their occupation before Pharaoh. He could have employed them under himself in the corn-trade, or perhaps, by his interest in the king, might have procured places for them at court or in the army, and some of them, at least, were deserving enough; but such preferments would have exposed them to the envy of the Egyptians, and would have tempted them to forget Canaan and the promise made unto their fathers; therefore he contrives to continue them in their old employment. Note,
  - (1.) An honest calling is no disparagement, nor ought we to account it so either in ourselves or in our relations, but rather reckon it a shame to be idle, or to have nothing to do.
  - (2.) It is generally best for people to abide in the callings that they have been bred to, and used to, 1 Cor. 7:24. Whatever employment or condition God, in his providence, has allotted for us, let us accommodate ourselves to it, and satisfy ourselves with it, and not mind high things. It is better to be the credit of a mean post than the shame of a high one.
