Calvin's on Genesis 49:20

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

20. Out of Asher . The inheritance of Asher is but just alluded to, which he declares shall be fruitful in the best and finest wheat, so that it shall need no foreign supply of food, having abundance at home. By royal dainties , he means such as are exquisite. Should any one object, that it is no great thing to be fed with nutritious and pleasant bread; I answer; we must consider the end designed; namely, that they might hereby know that they were fed by the paternal care of God. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-21" class="com-number"
