49:28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: and this is it that their father spake unto them, and blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them.
“blessed them”
Jacob's life, ending in serenity and blessing, testifies to the power of God to transform character. His spiritual progress has six notable phases:
(1) the first exercise of faith, as shown in the purchase of the birthright Gen 25:28–34; Gen 27:10–22.
(2) the vision at bethel Gen 28:10–19.
(3) walking in the flesh Gen 29:1 to Gen 31:55.
(4) the transforming experience Gen 32:24–31.
(5) the return to Bethel: idols put away Gen 35:1–7.
(6) the walk of faith Gen 37:1 to Gen 49:33.
