Genesis 35

Genesis 35:27-29

Epilogue to the Genealogy of Isaac – Genesis 35:27-29 gives us the closing epilogue of the genealogy of Isaac. It simply gives us the dates of his life and tells us that he died in peace at an old age. When the Scriptures tell us that a patriarch dies in a ripe old age in peace, it implies that this person fulfilled the destiny that God had given him. I believe that we can see this in epilogues to the genealogies of the lives of Noah, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and in the life of Joseph. Genesis 35:27 — “the city of Arbah” - Comments - Other translations read, “Kirjah Arba.”
