SEV Biblia, Chapter 45:20
Y no se os preocupe por vuestras alhajas, porque el bien de la tierra de Egipto será vuestro.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 45:20
Verse 20. Regard not your stuff] Literally, Let not your eye spare your instruments or vessels. ľkylk keleychem, a general term, in which may be included household furniture, agricultural utensils, or implements of any description. They were not to delay nor encumber themselves with articles which could be readily found in Egypt, and were not worth so long a carriage.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 16-24 - Pharaoh was kind to Joseph, and to his relations for his sake. Egyp would make up the losses of their removal. Thus those for whom Chris intends his heavenly glory, ought not to regard the things of thi world. The best of its enjoyments are but lumber; we cannot make sure of them while here, much less can we carry them away with us. Let u not set our eyes or hearts upon the world; there are better things for us in that blessed land, whither Christ, our Joseph, is gone to prepar a place. Joseph dismissed his brethren with a seasonable caution, "Se that ye fall not out by the way." He knew they were too apt to be quarrelsome; and having forgiven them all, he lays this charge upo them, not to upbraid one another. This command our Lord Jesus has give to us, that we love one another, and that whatever happens, or ha happened, we fall not out. For we are brethren, we have all one Father We are all guilty, and instead of quarrelling with one another, have reason to fall out with ourselves. We are, or hope to be, forgiven of God, whom we have all offended, and, therefore, should be ready to forgive one another. We are "by the way," a way through the land of Egypt, where we have many eyes upon us, that seek advantage against us a way that leads to the heavenly Canaan, where we hope to be for eve in perfect peace.
