SEV Biblia, Chapter 12:13
el linaje de la Casa de Leví por sí, y sus mujeres por sí; el linaje de Simei por sí, y sus mujeres por sí;
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 13. The family of the house of Levi apart, and their wives apart , etc.] Because of the contempt of the priestly office of Christ, which theirs prefigured, and was abolished by him; because of their trampling upon his blood, righteousness, and sacrifice: the family of Shimei apart, and their wives apart ; not of Shimea the son of David, ( 1 Chronicles 3:5) as Jarchi thinks, for his family is comprehended in the family of David; nor of Shimei the son of Merari, and grandson of Levi, ( 1 Chronicles 6:16,17), for the same reason: some think that, by way of prophecy, the family of Semei, mentioned among the progenitors of Christ, ( Luke 3:26), is intended; and others have thought of Shammai, a famous Misnic doctor in the times of Christ, whose disciples were called the house or family of Shammai, of which frequent mention is made in the Misna and Talmud: but the Septuagint, Syriac, and Arabic versions, read “the family of Simeon”; mentioned together with Levi, as brethren in iniquity, and now mourn for the common concern they had in the crucifixion of Christ, and their refusal of him.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 9-14 - The day here spoken of, is the day of Jerusalem's defence an deliverance, that glorious day when God will appear for the salvatio of his people. In Christ's first coming he bruised the serpent's head and broke all the powers of darkness that fought against God's kingdo among men. In his second coming he will complete their destruction when he shall put down all opposing rule, principality, and power; an death itself shall be swallowed up in that victory. The Holy Spirit i gracious and merciful, and is the Author of all grace or holiness. He also, is the Spirit of supplications, and shows men their ignorance want, guilt, misery, and danger. At the time here foretold, the Jew will know who the crucified Jesus was; then they shall look by faith to him, and mourn with the deepest sorrow, not only in public, but in private, even each one separately. There is a holy mourning, the effec of the pouring out of the Spirit; a mourning for sin, which quicken faith in Christ, and qualifies for joy in God. This mourning is a frui of the Spirit of grace, a proof of a work of grace in the soul, and of the Spirit of supplications. It is fulfilled in all who sorrow for sin after a godly sort; they look to Christ crucified, and mourn for him Looking by faith upon the cross of Christ will cause us to mourn for sin after a godly sort __________________________________________________________________
