Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Genesis 42:36

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

36. Me have ye bereaved —This exclamation indicates a painfully excited state of feeling, and it shows how difficult it is for even a good man to yield implicit submission to the course of Providence. The language does not imply that his missing sons had got foul play from the hands of the rest, but he looks upon Simeon as lost, as well as Joseph, and he insinuates it was by some imprudent statements of theirs that he was exposed to the risk of losing Benjamin also. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-37" class="com-number"
