Genesi 33:2 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 33:2

And he put the handmaids and their children foremost
In the first division, as being less honourable and less beloved by him: and Leah and her children after;
still according to the degree of honour and affection due unto them; Leah being a wife that was imposed and forced upon him: and Rachel and Joseph hindermost;
being most beloved by him, and therefore most careful of them; Rachel being his principal and lawful wife, and who had the greatest share in his affection, and Joseph his only child by her.

Genesi 33:2 In-Context

1 POI Giacobbe alzò gli occhi, e riguardò; ed ecco Esaù veniva, menando seco quattrocent’uomini. Ed egli spartì i fanciulli in tre schiere, sotto Lea, sotto Rachele, e sotto le due serve.
2 E mise le serve e i lor figliuoli davanti; e Lea e i suoi figliuoli appresso; e Rachele e Giuseppe gli ultimi.
3 Ed egli passò davanti a loro, e s’inchinò sette volte a terra, finchè fu presso al suo fratello.
4 Ed Esaù gli corse incontro, e l’abbracciò, e gli si gittò al collo, e lo baciò; ed amendue piansero.
5 Ed Esaù alzò gli occhi, e vide quelle donne e que’ fanciulli, e disse: Che ti son costoro? E Giacobbe disse: Sono i fanciulli che Iddio ha donati al tuo servitore.
