Genesis26:29
29 That thou wilt do us no hurt; as we have not touched thee , and as we have done unto thee nothing but good, and have sent thee away in peace: thou art now the blessed of the LORD .
To wit, so as to injure or hurt thee, as above ver. 11.
Or, O thou who art now the blessed of the Lord, whom God hath inriched with great and manifold blessings, which we did not take away from thee, as we could easily have done, but thou doest still enjoy them; and now art, as thou wert amongst us, the blessed of the Lord. Or, Seeing God hath blessed thee, it will not become thee to curse us, or to bear any grudge against us for that little unkindness which we expressed to thee. Or it may be a wish, if thou makest this covenant with us, be thou now the blessed of the Lord, we heartily wish thy blessings and prosperity may increase.
