This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Gen_37:23 And it came to pass, when Joseph was come unto his brethren, that they stript Joseph out of his coat, [his] coat of [many] colours that [was] on him;
Ver. 23. They stripe Joseph out of his coat.] For, (1) It an eyesore to them; (2.) There with they would colour their cruelty. And this while they were doing, Joseph used many entreaties for himself, but they would not hear him. {Gen_42:21} Reuben also pleaded hard for the child, but all to no purpose. {Gen_37:22} Their tender mercies were cruelties.
