Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Genesis 46:27
And the sons of Joseph, which were born him in Egypt, were two souls: all the souls of the house of Jacob, which came into Egypt, were threescore and ten. All the souls ... were threescore and ten.
Matthew Poole's Commentary on Genesis 46:27
He doth not say, which came with Jacob into Egypt, because some of them came thither before him, and others with him, some in their persons, and some in their parents. As for the difficulty arising from comparing this place with , it will be more fit to speak of it when we come to that place.
Trapp's Commentary on Genesis 46:27
Genesis 46:27 And the sons of Joseph, which were born him in Egypt, [were] two souls: all the souls of the house of Jacob, which came into Egypt, [were] threescore and ten.Ver. 27. Threescore and ten.] St Stephen reckons seventy-five. And so the Greek translateth here, which Stephen seemeth to follow; as doth likewise St Luke for Cainan; that translation being then received, and they not willing to alter it. The Jews say, that these seventy souls were as much as all the seventy nations of the world. And Moses tells them, that whereas their fathers went down into Egypt with seventy souls, now Jehovah had made them "as the stars of heaven for multitude."
Cambridge Bible on Genesis 46:27
27. threescore and ten] LXX gives “threescore and fifteen,” which is followed in Acts 7:14. The additional five persons were the three grandsons and two great-grandsons born to Joseph in Egypt. Cf. Genesis 50:23; Numbers 26:28 ff. The number “seventy” being a sacred number is secured, though at the cost of some adjustment.
Whedon's Commentary on Genesis 46:27
27. All the souls… threescore and ten — It accorded with Hebrew spirit and custom to so frame a register of honoured names as to have them sum up a definite and significant number.
