Esau and Jacob Reconciled

By Matthew Henry

PARTICULAR notice is taken of the amicable agreement of Esau and Jacob, in solemnizing their father’s funeral, to show how wonderfully God had changed Esau’s mind (since he vowed his brother’s murder), immediately after his father’s death. God has many ways of preventing bad men from doing the mischief they intended; he can either tie their hands, or turn their hearts.—Matthew Henry.
