Read Through the Bible
Day 16: Genesis 25, a little more
The following verse , Genesis 25:8, also struck me:
“The Abraham gave up the ghost, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years; and was gathered to his people” (Gen 25:8).
Matthew Henry offers some beautiful commentary in regards to this verse, but I will only quote the Latin statement, which he noted in relation to it:
“Vixi quantum satis est – I have lived long enough” (123).
