To remind him of what he was and had been, in contrast to what God would make him. **fear not, &c.** Though Isaac forbidden to go ([Genesis 26:2](../../../kjv/genesis/26/2) ), and Abraham warned ([Genesis 15:13](../../../kjv/genesis/15/13) , [Genesis 15:14](../../../kjv/genesis/15/14) ), no need to fear where God goes with Jacob and us. **surely bring thee up.** Figure of speech *Polyptoton.* Compare [Genesis 15:14](../../../kjv/genesis/15/14) . **put his hand, &c.** i.e. shall close thine eyes in peace. **sons of Israel carried Jacob.** They now take the ground of faith. **wagons.** See note on [Genesis 45:19](../../../kjv/genesis/45/19) . **daughters.** Compare [Genesis 31:55](../../../kjv/genesis/31/55) with [Genesis 46:15](../../../kjv/genesis/46/15) , [Genesis 46:17](../../../kjv/genesis/46/17) . **the names.** Compare the above order with that of [Genesis 49:3-27](../../../kjv/genesis/49/3-27) , and see App-45 . **Merari.** Jochebed is to be added, for she "came into" Egypt in her mother ([Numbers 26:59](../../../kjv/numbers/26/59) ). **but Er and Onan.** These are not to be reckoned. **Hezron and Hamul.** These grandsons take their place. **souls of his sons.** Hebrew. *nephesh.* Souls put by *Synecdoche* (of the Part) for the persons ( App-6 ). And "of" = the Genitive of Apposition: i.e. "the souls, that is to say, his sons, "&c. ( App-17 ). **were born.** Some codices, with Samaritan Pentateuch, Targum of Onkelos, Septuagint, and Syriac, read "whom she bare". **sons.** Figure of speech *Synecdoche* (of Species). Only one mentioned; some codices read "son". **out of his loins.** This is said in order to distinguish the numbers sixtysix and seventy from Stephen's seventy-five, in [Acts 7:14](../../../kjv/acts/7/14) , which includes Jacob as well as "all his *kindred* " (which are not included in the direct descendants of this verse). These extra nine are made up in part by the five in [1 Chronicles 7:14-20](../../../kjv/1-chronicles/7/14-20) (Machir, Gilead, Shuthelah, Tahath, Eden, as in Septuagint: also here). **threescore and six.** See note on [Genesis 46:8](../../../kjv/genesis/46/8) . **threescore and ten.** 7 x 10. See App-10 . These seventy ([Exodus 1:5](../../../kjv/exodus/1/5) .[Ruth 4:11](../../../kjv/ruth/4/11); [Ruth 4:11](../../../kjv/ruth/4/11) ) are in contrast with the seventy nations of [Genesis 10](../../../kjv/genesis/10) , and in correspondence with the seventy elders ([Exodus 24:1](../../../kjv/exodus/24/1) .[Numbers 11:16](../../../kjv/numbers/11/16); [Numbers 11:16](../../../kjv/numbers/11/16) ). **Judah.** See [Genesis 44:18](../../../kjv/genesis/44/18) and Compare [Genesis 37:26](../../../kjv/genesis/37/26) . **Goshen.** The land east of Memphis, suitable for grazing, called "the field of Zoan". Zoan (or Tanis) mentioned in the Inscriptions as containing non- Egyptian inhabitants and Semites. **shepherds.** See on [Genesis 46:34](../../../kjv/genesis/46/34) . **abomination.** *Metonymy* (of Adjunct). = an abominable person. Apepi, the Pharaoh of Joseph, was one of the Hyksos, or shepherd kings. Joseph's advice would commend his brethren to Pharaoh ([Genesis 47:6](../../../kjv/genesis/47/6) ), and keep them separate from the Egyptians, It was a *race* prejudice, not a *class* prejudice. ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com","name":"Real Bible Believers","description":"RBB","publisher":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"potentialAction":[{"@type":"SearchAction","target":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/?s={search_term_string}","query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}],"inLanguage":"en-US"},{"@type":"ImageObject","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/bullingers-companion-bible-notes/genesis/46#primaryimage","inLanguage":"en-US","url":"/images/missing.jpg","contentUrl":"/images/missing.jpg","width":640,"height":370,"caption":"Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes - Genesis 46"},{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/bullingers-companion-bible-notes/genesis/46#webpage","url":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/bullingers-companion-bible-notes/genesis/46","name":"Bullinger's Companion Bible Notes - Genesis 46","isPartOf":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#website"},"primaryImageOfPage":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/commentaries/bullingers-companion-bible-notes/genesis/46#primaryimage"},"datePublished":null,"dateModified":null,"author":{"@id":"https://realbiblebelievers.com/#/schema/person/e966585dde703268e7f6ae890ea98509"},"description":"offered sacrifices.
