And he cometh in unto his father, and saith, 'My father;' and he saith, 'Here am I; who art thou, my son?' | | Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible And he came unto his father,.... Into the tent and apartment where he was: and said, my father; to try whether he was awake, and to let him know that he was come, since he could not see him: and he said, here am I; what hast thou to say to me? who art thou, my son? for, from the voice and the quick dispatch made, he suspected it was not his son Esau.
Keil and Delitzsch Biblical Commentary on the Old TestamentBut Jacob had no easy task to perform before his father. As soon as he had spoken on entering, his father asked him, "Who art thou, my son?" On his replying, "I am Esau, thy first-born," the father expressed his surprise at the rapid success of his hunting; and when he was satisfied with the reply, "Jehovah thy God sent it (the thing desired) to meet me," he became suspicious about the voice, and bade him come nearer, that he might feel him. But as his hands appeared hairy like Esau's, he did not recognise him; and "so he blessed him." In this remark (Genesis 27:23) the writer gives the result of Jacob's attempt; so that the blessing is merely mentioned proleptically here, and refers to the formal blessing described afterwards, and not to the first greeting and salutation.
Geneva Study BibleAnd he came unto his father, and said, My father: and he said, Here am I; who art thou, my son?
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Bible Commentary18-27. he came unto his father-The scheme planned by the mother was to be executed by the son in the father's bedchamber; and it is painful to think of the deliberate falsehoods, as well as daring profanity, he resorted to. The disguise, though wanting in one thing, which had nearly upset the whole plot, succeeded in misleading Isaac; and while giving his paternal embrace, the old man was roused into a state of high satisfaction and delight.
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary27:18-29 Jacob, with some difficulty, gained his point, and got the blessing. This blessing is in very general terms. No mention is made of the distinguishing mercies in the covenant with Abraham. This might be owing to Isaac having Esau in his mind, though it was Jacob who was before him. He could not be ignorant how Esau had despised the best things. Moreover, his attachment to Esau, so as to disregard the mind of God, must have greatly weakened his own faith in these things. It might therefore be expected, that leanness would attend his blessing, agreeing with the state of his mind. | |
