Genesis 35:26 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 35:26

And the sons of Zilpah
And lastly, the sons of Zilpah, Leah's handmaid, which were two also, Gad and Asher; it is added, these [are] the sons of Jacob, which were born to him in Padanaram,
all excepting Benjamin; and because they were by far the greater part, even all but one, that were born there, this is said in general; and there having been given in the context such a particular account of the birth of Benjamin, and of the place of it, them was no need for the historian particularly to except him, since the reader would be in no danger of being led into a mistake.
