Genesis 27:27

See, the smell of my son is as the smell of a field which the Lord hath blessed.

The smell of the garments of my son is as the sweet perfume, which is sent up from a field, richly furnished with all manner of pleasant and fragrant flowers and herbs.

Genesis 27:33

And Isaac trembled very exceedingly.

And Isaac was exceedingly astonished in himself, at the thought of the conveyance of the blessing upon a person, that he intended not.

Genesis 27:40

By thy sword shalt thou live, and shalt serve thy brother.

The course of thy life shall be troublesome and unquiet; and thou shalt uphold thy state by wars: and, though thy person shall be free, yet, in thy posterity, thou shalt be subject to the issue of thy brother Jacob.

Genesis 27:45

Why should I be deprived of you both in one day?

If Esau should in his fury kill thee, the law will justly kill him, and so we lose both at once.

Genesis 27:46

I am weary of my life because of the daughters of Heth.

These heathenish wives of Esau are a perpetual and intolerable vexation to my soul, by reason of their idolatry and viciousness.

Everything we make is available for free because of a generous community of supporters.
