Gênesis 46:27 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 46:27

And the sons of Joseph, which were born in Egypt, [were] two
souls
Ephraim and Manasseh; which is observed to show that they do not come into the above reckoning, but are to be taken into another that follows: all the souls of the house of Jacob, which came into Egypt, [were]
threescore and ten;
here it may be observed, the phrase is varied; it is not said, "all the souls which came out of the loins of Jacob", but "all the souls of the house" or family of Jacob; all that that consisted of, and takes in Jacob himself, the head of his house or family; nor is it said, "which came with Jacob into Egypt", as before, but "which came into Egypt"; not which came with him thither, but yet were there by some means or another, as Joseph and his two sons; Joseph by being brought down, and sold there, and his two sons by being born there; if therefore Jacob, Joseph, and his two sons, are added to the above number of sixty six, it will make seventy; as for the account of Stephen, making the number seventy five, (See Gill on Acts 7:14).

Gênesis 46:27 In-Context

25 Estes são os filhos de Bila, a qual Labão deu � sua filha Raquel; e estes deu ela a Jacó, ao todo sete almas.

26 Todas as almas que vieram com Jacó para o Egito e que saíram da sua coxa, fora as mulheres dos filhos de Jacó, eram todas sessenta e seis almas;

27 e os filhos de José, que lhe nasceram no Egito, eram duas almas. Todas as almas da casa de Jacó, que vieram para o Egito eram setenta.

28 Ora, Jacó enviou Judá adiante de si a José, para o encaminhar a Gósen; e chegaram � terra de Gósen.

29 Então José aprontou o seu carro, e subiu ao encontro de Israel, seu pai, a Gósen; e tendo-se-lhe apresentado, lançou-se ao seu pescoço, e chorou sobre o seu pescoço longo tempo.
