SEV Biblia, Chapter 27:42
Y fueron dichas a Rebeca las palabras de Esaú su hijo mayor; y ella envió y llamó a Jacob su hijo menor, y le dijo: He aquí, Esaú tu hermano se consuela acerca de ti con la idea de matarte.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 27:42
Verse 42. Doth comfort himself, purposing to kill thee.] µjntm űl mithnachem lecha, which Houbigant renders cogitat super te, he thinks or meditates to kill thee. This sense is natural enough here, but it does not appear to be the meaning of the original; nor does Houbigant himself give it this sense, in his Racines Hebraiques. There is no doubt that Esau, in his hatred to his brother, felt himself pleased with the thought that he should soon have the opportunity of avenging his wrongs.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 41-46 - Esau bore malice to Jacob on account of the blessing he had obtained Thus he went in the way of Cain, who slew his brother, because he gained that acceptance with God of which he had rendered himsel unworthy. Esau aimed to prevent Jacob or his seed from having the dominion, by taking away his life. Men may fret at God's counsels, but cannot change them. To prevent mischief, Rebekah warned Jacob of his danger, and advised him to withdraw for his safety. We must not presum too far upon the wisdom and resolution, even of the most hopeful an promising children; but care must be taken to keep them out of the way of evil. When reading this chapter, we should not fail to observe, tha we must not follow even the best of men further than they act accordin to the law of God. We must not do evil that good may come. And thoug God overruled the bad actions recorded in this chapter, to fulfil his purposes, yet we see his judgment of them, in the painful consequence to all the parties concerned. It was the peculiar privilege an advantage of Jacob to convey these spiritual blessings to all nations The Christ, the Saviour of the world, was to be born of some on family; and Jacob's was preferred to Esau's, out of the good pleasur of Almighty God, who is certainly the best judge of what is fit, an has an undoubted right to dispense his favours as he sees proper, R 9:12-15 __________________________________________________________________
