Genesis 33:4
_ _ Esau ran to meet him — What a sudden and surprising change! Whether the sight of the princely present and the profound homage of Jacob had produced this effect, or it proceeded from the impulsive character of Esau, the cherished enmity of twenty years in a moment disappeared; the weapons of war were laid aside, and the warmest tokens of mutual affection reciprocated between the brothers. But doubtless, the efficient cause was the secret, subduing influence of grace (Proverbs 21:1), which converted Esau from an enemy into a friend. |
Genesis 33:4
And Esau ran to meet him — Not in passion but in love. Embraced him, fell on his neck and kissed him — God hath the hearts of all men in his hands, and can turn them when and how he pleases. He can of a sudden convert enemies into friends, as he did two Sauls, one by restraining grace, 1 Samuel 26:21, 1 Samuel 26:25, the other by renewing grace, Acts 9:21. And they wept — Jacob wept for joy to be thus kindly received; Esau perhaps wept for grief and shame to think of the ill design he had conceived against his brother. |
