5730.就代表性的历史意义而言，此处所论述的主题是雅各的后代，即：他们被抛弃；然而却固执地坚持作代表。约瑟想打发他们走，只留下便雅悯表示他们被抛弃；他们所作的忏悔和恳求暗示他们固执的坚持。
Potts(1905-1910) 5730
5730. In the representative historic sense the subject here treated of is Jacob's descendants, that they were rejected, but that they obstinately insisted on being representative. Their being rejected is meant by Joseph's desiring to send them away, and to keep Benjamin only; their obstinately insisting is involved in the particulars of their confession and entreaty.
Elliott(1983-1999) 5730
5730. The subject in the historical representative sense is at this point the fact that Jacob's descendants were cast aside; yet they insisted resolutely on being representative people. The casting aside of them is meant by Joseph's wish to send them away and keep Benjamin only; their resolute insistence is implied by the confession and entreaty which they made.

5730. In sensu repraesentativo historico agitur hic de Jacobi posteris quod rejecti, sed quod contumaciter institerint ut repraesentativi essent; quod rejecti, intelligitur per quod Josephus illos dimittere voluerit, et solum retinere Benjaminem; quod contumaciter institerint, involvunt contenta confessionis et supplicationis illorum.
