The Portion of Jacob This phrase refers to God Himself as the inheritance and possession of Jacob, representing the people of Israel. In Hebrew, "portion" (חֵלֶק, cheleq) signifies a share or inheritance, emphasizing the unique relationship between God and Israel. Unlike the idols of the nations, which are lifeless and powerless, God is the living and active portion of His people. This highlights the covenantal bond and the divine favor bestowed upon Israel, setting them apart from other nations. is not like these for He is the Maker of all things and Israel is the tribe of His inheritance the LORD of Hosts is His name The rod of his inheritance.--The phrase was familiar in the poetry of Israel (Psalm 74:2; Isaiah 63:17--Heb.), but its exact meaning is not clear. The word may be "rod" in the sense of "sceptre," as in Genesis 49:10; Micah 7:14. Israel is that over which, or by means of which, God rules. But the other meaning in which it stands for "stem," "division," "tribe" (as in Isaiah 19:13; Exodus 28:21), is equally tenable. . . . Verse 16. - The portion of Jacob; i.e. Jehovah. The phrase appears to have been coined at a lower level of religion, when every nation was supposed to have its own patron deity; just as the prophet says, ironically, to the fetish-worshippers of Israel, "Among the smooth stones of the stream is thy portion" (Isaiah 57:5), and Moses, in Deuteronomy (Deuteronomy 4:19), speaks of the host of heaven as having been "divided [i.e. assigned] unto all nations under the whole heaven." But, of course, the phrase is susceptible of a high, spiritual application (comp. Psalm 16:5; Psalm 142:5). God's people are, by their very conception, an ἐκλογὴ, chosen out by God, and choosing him, and not the world, for their portion. "Making the best of both worlds" is an object implicitly condemned by this consecrated phrase. The former of all things. How much more forcible is the original phrase: "... of the whole," i.e. the universe! "To form" is a phrase constantly used of God in the second part of Isaiah. The rod of his inheritance. "Rod" should rather be tribe. The twelve tribes had an inner unity, as contrasted with other peoples; comp. Psalm 74:2 and Isaiah 63:17 ("tribes").Parallel Commentaries ...
