创世记 45:26 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 45:26

And told him
What had happened to them in Egypt: saying, Joseph [is] yet alive;
who was thought by him and them to have been dead long ago: and he [is] governor over all the land of Egypt;
deputy governor, and had such power and authority that nothing was done without his order; the executive power or administration of government was put into his hands, and all the officers of the kingdom were under him, he was next to Pharaoh: and Jacob's heart fainted, for he believed them not;
it was too great and too good news to be true; though it was desirable, it was unexpected; it amazed him, he knew not what to think, or say or believe about it; there was such a conflict of the passions in him, that he could not compose himself, or reason with himself about it; and what might serve the more to hinder his belief of it was, that this report of theirs was contrary to what they themselves had before related of his death; and very likely upon the mention of the thing he fell into a swoon, and was not himself for a while; and when he came a little to himself, they went on with their account, as follows.

24 於 是 约 瑟 打 发 他 弟 兄 们 回 去 , 又 对 他 们 说 : 你 们 不 要 在 路 上 相 争 。
25 他 们 从 埃 及 上 去 , 来 到 迦 南 地 、 他 们 的 父 亲 雅 各 那 里 ,
26 告 诉 他 说 : 约 瑟 还 在 , 并 且 作 埃 及 全 地 的 宰 相 。 雅 各 心 里 冰 凉 , 因 为 不 信 他 们 。
27 他 们 便 将 约 瑟 对 他 们 说 的 一 切 话 都 告 诉 了 他 。 他 们 父 亲 雅 各 又 看 见 约 瑟 打 发 来 接 他 的 车 辆 , 心 就 苏 醒 了 。
