Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 1. - And Abraham was old and well stricken in age: - literally, [lone into days (cf. Genesis 18:11), being now about 140 (vide Genesis 25:20) - and the Lord - Jehovah] not because the chapter is the exclusive composition of the Jehovist (Tuch, Bleek, Kalisch), but because the writer aims at showing how the God of redemption provided a bride for the heir of the promise (Hengstenberg) - had blessed Abraham in all things.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English ReadersXXIV.MARRIAGE OF ISAAC AND REBEKAH.(1) Abraham was old.--As Isaac was thirty-seven years of age when Sarah died (Genesis 23:1), and forty at his marriage (Genesis 25:20), Abraham, who was a centenarian at Isaac's birth, would now be nearly 140. As he lived to be 175 (Genesis 25:7), he survived Isaac's marriage thirty-five years, and lived to see Esau and Jacob nearly grown up.
