  • Robert Bloch on Deuteronomy 26 - 4 years ago
    Matthew Henry may shed light upon verse 5. "A Syrian ready to perish was my father, v. 5. Jacob is here called an Aramite, or Syrian, because he lived twenty years in Padan-Aram his wives were of that country, and his children were all born there, except Benjamin and perhaps the confessor means not Jacob himself, but that son of Jacob who was the father of his tribe."
