SEV Biblia, Chapter 42:36
Entonces su padre Jacob les dijo: Me habéis privado de mis hijos; José no parece, ni Simeón tampoco, y a Benjamín le llevaréis; sobre mí son todas estas cosas.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 42:36
Verse 36. All these things are against me.] hnlk wyh yl[ alai hayu cullanah; literally, All these things are upon me. Not badly translated by the Vulgate, In me haec omnia mala reciderunt, ""All these evils fall back upon me."" They lie upon me as heavy loads, hastening my death; they are more than I can bear.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 29-38 - Here is the report Jacob's sons made to their father. It troubled the good man. Even the bundles of money Joseph returned, in kindness, to his father, frightened him. He laid the fault upon his sons; knowin them, he feared they had provoked the Egyptians, and wrongfully brough home their money. Jacob plainly distrusted his sons, remembering tha he never saw Joseph since he had been with them. It is bad with family, when children behave so ill that their parents know not how to trust them. Jacob gives up Joseph for gone, and Simeon and Benjamin a in danger; and concludes, All these things are against me. It prove otherwise, that all these things were for him, were working togethe for his good, and the good of his family. We often think that to be against us, which is really for us. We are afflicted in body, estate name, and in our relations; and think all these things are against us whereas they are really working for us a weight of glory. Thus does the Lord Jesus conceal himself and his favour, thus he rebukes and chasten those for whom he has purposes of love. By sharp corrections an humbling convictions he will break the stoutness and mar the pride of the heart, and bring to true repentance. Yet before sinners fully know him, or taste that he is gracious, he consults their good, and sustain their souls, to wait for him. May we do thus, never yielding to discouragement, determining to seek no other refuge, and humblin ourselves more and more under his mighty hand. In due time he wil answer our petitions, and do for us more than we can expect __________________________________________________________________
