This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Gen 37:1-4. Parental partiality.

Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger - that is, “a sojourner”; “father” used collectively. The patriarch was at this time at Mamre, in the valley of Hebron (compare Gen 35:27); and his dwelling there was continued in the same manner and prompted by the same motives as that of Abraham and Isaac (Heb 11:13).
