This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Gen_44:30 Now therefore when I come to thy servant my father, and the lad [be] not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad’s life;
Ver. 30. Seeing that his life is bound up.] God loved his Son Jesus infinitely more than Jacob did Benjamin; he exalts his love far above that of any earthly parent; which is but a spark of his flame, a drop of his ocean. And yet be freely parted with him, to certain and shameful death, for our sakes. "God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son," &c. This is a Sic without a Sicut; there is nothing in nature whereby to resemble it.
