SEV Biblia, Chapter 38:12
¶ Y pasaron muchos días, y murió la hija de Súa, mujer de Judá; y Judá se consoló, y subía a los trasquiladores de sus ovejas a Timnat, él y su amigo Hira el adulamita.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 38:12
Verse 12. In process of time] This phrase, which is in general use in the Bible, needs explanation; the original is µymyh wbryw valyirbu haiyamim, and the days were multiplied. Though it implies an indefinite time, yet it generally embraces a pretty long period, and in this place may mean several years.
Matthew Henry Commentary
The profligate conduct of Judah and his family. --This chapter gives an account of Judah and his family, and such a account it is, that it seems a wonder that of all Jacob's sons, ou Lord should spring out of Judah, Heb 7:14. But God will show that his choice is of grace and not of merit, and that Christ came into the world to save sinners, even the chief. Also, that the worthiness of Christ is of himself, and not from his ancestors. How little reason ha the Jews, who were so called from this Judah, to boast as they did, Jo 8:41. What awful examples the Lord proclaims in his punishments, of his utter displeasure at sin! Let us seek grace from God to avoid ever appearance of sin. And let that state of humbleness to which Jesu submitted, when he came to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself, in appointing such characters as those here recorded, to be his ancestors endear the Redeemer to our hearts __________________________________________________________________
