And these are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived, an hundred threescore and fifteen years.
These are the days of ... Abraham. His death is here related, though he lived until Jacob and Esau were fifteen years. Just 100 years after coming to Canaan, "the Father of the faithful," "the friend of God," died; and even in his death the promises were fulfilled (cf. Genesis 15:15). We might have wished some memorials of his deathbed experience; but the Spirit of God has withheld them. Nor was it necessary; for (see Matthew 7:16) from earth he passed into glory (Luke 16:22). Though dead, he yet liveth (Matthew 22:32).
