**men** = Hebrew sing, *'ish* ( App-14 ), as we use the expression "400 foot". When plural, used only of angels.

**and kissed him.** This is one of the Hebrew words with "extraordinary points", to show that the Massorites thought it should be omitted. See App-31 . It should read, "and fell on his neck and wept"; without kissing. This is the custom in Genesis. Compare [Genesis 45:14](../../../kjv/genesis/45/14) ; [Genesis 46:29](../../../kjv/genesis/46/29) .

**enough** = abundance, plenty.

**Jacob said.** Figure of speech *Ellipsis* . ( App-6 ). Ellipsis should be supplied thus: "Jacob [refused, and] said. "

**men.** Samaritan Pentateuch and Septuagint read "I".

**What needeth it?** Hebrew What for? or Why so? Figure of speech *Erotesis* and *Ellipsis* ( App-6 )= Why [have] anything?

**booths.** Hebrew. *succoth.* Hence the name. First occurance.

**came to Shalem,** a city of Shechem; read, came in peace to the city of Shechem; the Hebrew *Shalem* means peace.

**Hamor.** Probably a title, like Abimelech and Pharaoh.

**El-elohe-Israel -** "GOD-the God-of-Israel", but not the place for this altar. Compare [Genesis 35:1](../../../kjv/genesis/35/1) .
