Genesis 33:9 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 33:9

And Esau said, I have enough, my brother
Or "I have much" {o}, and stand in no need of this present, or have much more than thou hast: keep that thou hast unto thyself;
for the use of himself and family, which is large; in this Esau showed himself not only not a covetous man, but that he was truly reconciled to his brother, and needed not anything from him, to make up the difference between them.

Genesis 33:9 In-Context

7 accessitque Lia cum liberis suis et cum similiter adorassent extremi Ioseph et Rahel adoraverunt

8 quaenam sunt inquit istae turmae quas obvias habui respondit ut invenirem gratiam coram domino meo

9 et ille habeo ait plurima frater mi sint tua tibi

10 dixit Iacob noli ita obsecro sed si inveni gratiam in oculis tuis accipe munusculum de manibus meis sic enim vidi faciem tuam quasi viderim vultum Dei esto mihi propitius

11 et suscipe benedictionem quam adtuli tibi et quam donavit mihi Deus tribuens omnia vix fratre conpellente suscipiens
