 Thus with Jacob, grace overcomes his unbelief. His sons repeat "all the words of Joseph, which he said unto them." Moreover, they show Jacob "the wagons which Joseph sent to carry him." The grace and goodness of Joseph breaks down the unbelief of Jacob. (Glory and Blessing by H. Smith)
 {v.27-28} "When he saw." Nothing but seeing was believing with Jacob; when he saw he believed, saying, "Joseph my son is yet alive." Sight produces resolution too - "I will go and see him"; and "Israel took his journey." When he "saw," and not till then did he say, "it is enough." (Joseph and His Brethren: Part 7 by F.T. Heath)
 We do not read of Jacob praying when the famine came, but we do read what he did when he saw that there was corn in Egypt (Gen. 42:1). It is the language of the doubting Thomas, in John 20: "Except I shall see in His hands... I will not believe." Jesus appeared a second time, when Thomas was present, and His gentle rebuke upon Thomas's confession of Him then was, "Blessed are they that have not seen and yet have believed." Sight does not call for faith, and its only advantages are present things. Faith is far more excellent; it is the substantiating of things hoped for (Heb. 11:1). (Joseph and His Brethren: Part 7 by F.T. Heath)
