SEV Biblia, Chapter 49:7

Maldito su furor, que es fuerte; y su ira, que es dura; yo los apartaré en Jacob, y los esparciré en Israel.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 49:7

Verse 7.
Cursed was their anger] The first motions of their violence were savage; and their excessive or overflowing wrath, hrb[ ebrah, for it was inflexible - neither the supplications of the males, nor the entreaties, tears, cries, and shrieks of the helpless females, could deter them from their murderous purpose; for this, ver. 5, they are said to have accomplished.

I will divide them out, µqlja achallekem, I will make them into lots, giving a portion of them to one tribe, and a portion to another; but they shall never attain to any political consequence. This appears to have been literally fulfilled. Levi had no inheritance except forty-eight cities, scattered through different parts of the land of Canaan: and as to the tribe of Simeon, it is generally believed among the Jews that they became schoolmasters to the other tribes; and when they entered Canaan they had only a small portion, a few towns and villages in the worst part of Judah's lot, Josh. xix. 1, which afterwards finding too little, they formed different colonies in districts which they conquered from the Idumeans and Amalekites, 1 Chron. iv. 39, &c. Thus these two tribes were not only separated from each other, but even divided from themselves, according to this prediction of Jacob.

8. Judah! thou! Thy brethren shall praise thee. Thy hand, in the neck of thine enemies: The sons of thy father shall bow themselves to thee. 9. A lion's whelp is Judah: From the prey, my son, thou hast ascended, He couched, lying down like a strong lion And like a lioness; who shall arouse him? 10. From Judah the scepter shall not depart, Nor a teacher from his offspring, Until that SHILOH shall come, And to him shall be assembled the peoples. 11. Binding his colt to the vine, And to the choice vine the foals of his ass, He washed his garments in wine, His clothes in the blood of the grape. 12. With wine shall his eyes be red, And his teeth shall be white with milk.


Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 3-7 - Reuben was the first-born; but by gross sin, he forfeited the birthright. The character of Reuben is, that he was unstable as water Men do not thrive, because they do not fix. Reuben's sin left a lastin infamy upon his family. Let us never do evil, then we need not fea being told of it. Simeon and Levi were passionate and revengeful. The murder of the Shechemites is a proof of this. Jacob protested agains that barbarous act. Our soul is our honour; by its powers we ar distinguished from, and raised above, the beasts that perish. We ought from our hearts, to abhor all bloody and mischievous men. Cursed by their anger. Jacob does not curse their persons, but their lusts. will divide them. The sentence as it respects Levi was turned into blessing. This tribe performed an acceptable service in their zea against the worshippers of the golden calf, Ex 32. Being set apart to God as priests, they were in that character scattered through the nation of Israel.
