This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Gen_45:28 And Israel said, [It is] enough; Joseph my son [is] yet alive: I will go and see him before I die.
Ver. 28. It is enough; Joseph my son is yet alive.] Jacob rejoiceth more for his life than his honour. "Why is living man sorrowful?." {Lam_3:39} Yet he is alive; that is a mercy, amidst all his miseries.
Before I die.] This he speaks after the manner of old men, whose song is, "My breath is corrupt, my days are extinct, the graves are ready for me." {Job_17:1}
