(28) The days of Isaac were an hundred and fourscore years.--As Isaac was sixty when his sons were born, Jacob was one hundred and twenty years of age at his father's death, and one hundred and thirty when he appeared before Pharaoh (Genesis 47:9). Now, as Joseph was seventeen when sold into Egypt (Genesis 37:2), and thirty when raised to power (Genesis 41:46), and as the seven years of plenty and two of the years of famine had passed before Jacob went down into Egypt, it follows that the cruel deed, whereby he was robbed of his favourite child, was committed about twelve years before the death of Isaac.Verse 28. - And the days of Isaac were an hundred and fourscore years. At this time Jacob was 120; but at 130 he stood before Pharaoh in Egypt, at which date Joseph had been 10 years governor. He was therefore 120 when Joseph was promoted at the age of 30, and 107 when Joseph was sold; consequently Isaac was 167 years of age when Joseph was sold, so that he must have survived that event and sympathized with Jacob his son for a period of 13 years. Genesis 35:28 simply states, “And Isaac lived 180 years”, yet behind each word lies a rich testimony of God’s covenant faithfulness. The conjunction ties Isaac’s story to the larger narrative; the name identifies a chosen patriarch; the verb affirms God-sustained life; the number showcases divine sovereignty over time; and the closing term “years” points to measured, purposeful days. Together they assure us that every moment of a believer’s life, from first breath to final rest, is held in the faithful hands of the Lord who keeps His promises exactly as written.
