28And Isaac lived 180 years. 29Then he breathed his last and died and was gathered to his people, old and full of years. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.Cross References

Genesis 35:27 Summary
Genesis 35:27 tells us that Jacob returned to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba, which is also known as Hebron. This was a significant place for Jacob's family, as it was where his grandfather Abraham and father Isaac had stayed and encountered God, as seen in Genesis 13:18. Jacob's return shows that he valued his family and wanted to reconnect with them, just as we are called to honor our parents in Exodus 20:12. By returning to his family, Jacob was able to find closure and reconciliation, and we can learn from his example to prioritize our own relationships and faith heritage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did Jacob return to his father Isaac at Mamre?
Jacob returned to his father Isaac at Mamre, near Kiriath-arba, to reunite with his family and fulfill his filial duties, as seen in Genesis 35:27, a gesture of respect and obedience, reminiscent of the Fifth Commandment in Exodus 20:12 to honor one's parents.
What is the significance of Mamre and Kiriath-arba?
Mamre and Kiriath-arba, also known as Hebron, held spiritual significance as a place where Abraham and Isaac had stayed, and where God had appeared to them, as recorded in Genesis 13:18 and Genesis 18:1.
How does Jacob's return relate to his overall journey?
Jacob's return to his father Isaac at Mamre marks a pivotal point in his journey, as he had previously fled to Paddan-aram to escape Esau's wrath, and now returns to his ancestral homeland, as seen in Genesis 28:5 and Genesis 31:3.
What can we learn from Jacob's decision to return to his father?
We can learn the importance of family, respect for one's parents, and the value of reconciliation, as Jacob's return demonstrates his desire to reconnect with his family and heritage, reflecting the biblical values of love, honor, and forgiveness, as taught in Ephesians 6:1-3 and Colossians 3:20.
Reflection Questions
- What are some ways I can show respect and honor to my own parents or elders, just as Jacob did by returning to his father Isaac?
- How can I, like Jacob, find my way back to my spiritual heritage and reconnect with my faith community after a period of distance or estrangement?
- What role does forgiveness and reconciliation play in my relationships, and how can I apply the example of Jacob's return to my own life?
- In what ways can I, like Abraham and Isaac, create a legacy of faith and spiritual significance for my own family and community?
Gill's Exposition on Genesis 35:27
And Jacob came unto Isaac his father,.... No mention being made of his mother, it is very probable she was dead; and Isaac being alone, and very old, and the time of his death drawing nigh, he might
Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Genesis 35:27
And Jacob came unto Isaac his father unto Mamre, unto the city of Arbah, which is Hebron, where Abraham and Isaac sojourned. Jacob came unto ... Mamre, unto the city of Arbah, which is Hebron.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Genesis 35:27
Jacob came; either with his wives, and children, and estate, to dwell with Isaac; or rather in person, to visit his sick and dying father; for otherwise Jacob having been ten years near his father, no doubt he had oft visited him, and carried his wives and children thither, though Scripture be silent in this particular: but they could not live together because of the greatness of their estates, as it happened with others. See 36:7.
Ellicott's Commentary on Genesis 35:27
(27) The city of Arbah, which is Hebron.—Better rendered Kirjath-arba in Genesis 23:2, where see Note.
Adam Clarke's Commentary on Genesis 35:27
Verse 27. The city of Arbah, (which is Hebron)] See Genesis 23:2. It has been conjectured that Jacob must have paid a visit to his father before this time, as previously to this he had been some years in Canaan; but now, as he was approaching to his end, Jacob is supposed to have gone to live with and comfort him in his declining days.
Cambridge Bible on Genesis 35:27
27. Isaac] The mention of Isaac, after so long an interval, is surprising. But the P narrative carefully records the death and age of each patriarch. According to J, Isaac was living at Beer-sheba, when Jacob left his home (Genesis 28:10). According to P, Isaac died 80 years later at Mamre in close proximity to the burial-place of his father. Isaac was 40 years old when he married Rebekah (Genesis 25:20); 60 years old at the birth of Esau and Jacob (Genesis 25:26); at least 100 years old when Jacob went to Haran (Genesis 27:46, cf. Genesis 26:34), and, therefore, over 120 when Jacob returned from Haran. Mamre] Cf. Genesis 13:18, Genesis 23:19. Kiriath-arba] Cf.
