| A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882] |
| Alluding to God's promise to Jacob (Gen 28:13). Out of the whole storehouse of the promises of God, only one is prominently brought forward, namely, that concerning the possession of Canaan [Psa 105:11]. Everything revolves around this. The wonders and judgments have all for their ultimate design the fulfilment of this promise. |
| Notes on the Bible, by Albert Barnes, [1834] |
And confirmed the same unto Jacob - literally, "caused it to stand;" that is, he made it fast or secure. He renewed it, commanding the same things; making the same promises; and pledging himself for its fulfillment in the same manner. Gen 28:10-15.
For a law - For an established or settled ordinance, for a rule by which future things were to be regulated: that is, they would occur according to that promise, and be conformed to it. It was, as it were, a rule which God prescribed for himself in regard to his own future conduct.
And to Israel ... - Another name for Jacob, Gen 32:28. |
| Explanatory Notes on the Whole Bible, by John Wesley [1754-65] |
| A law - That it might be as firm and irrevocable as a law. |
