This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Gen_25:32 And Esau said, Behold, I [am] at the point to die: and what profit shall this birthright do to me?
Ver. 32. What profit shall this birthright, &c.] Pluris facio pulticulam bonam, quam titulam inahem. Sensualists look only at the present pleasure, and sell their souls for it. Earthly things are present and pleasant, therefore we so cleave to them; striving, like the toad, who shall fall asleep with most earth in his paws.
