Genesis 49:22 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 49:22

20 “Bread from ^aAsher shall be rich,
And he shall yield royal dainties.

21 “Naphtali^a is a deer let loose;
He uses beautiful words.

22 “Joseph is a fruitful bough,
A fruitful bough by a well;
His branches run over the wall.

23 The archers have ^abitterly grieved him,
Shot at him and hated him.

24 But his ^abow remained in strength,
And the arms of his hands were¹ made strong
By the hands of ^bthe Mighty God of Jacob
^c(From there ^dis the Shepherd, ^ethe Stone of Israel),

25 ^aBy the God of your father who will help you,
^bAnd by the Almighty ^cwho will bless you
With blessings of heaven above,
Blessings of the deep that lies beneath,
Blessings of the breasts and of the womb.
