The Future of Bible Study Is Here.
Genesis 29:32
67 | |
68 | sn The name Reuben (רְאוּבֵן, ré’uven) means “look, a son.” |
69 | tn Heb “looked on my affliction.” sn Leah’s explanation of the name Reuben reflects a popular etymology, not an exact one. The name means literally “look, a son.” Playing on the Hebrew verb “look,” she observes that the Lord has “looked” with pity on her oppressed condition. See further S. R. Driver, Genesis, 273. |
