Genesis 41:47 - Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible

Bible Comments

And in the seven plenteous years the earth brought forth by handfuls.

Brought forth by handfuls, х liqmaatsiym (H7062)] - in fistfuls, in sheaves. A singular expression, alluding not only to the luxuriance of the crop, but the practice of the reapers grasping the ears, which alone were cut.
