Commentary

And Jacob kissed Rachel,.... Which he did in a way of courtesy and civility; this wa s done after he had acquainted her with his relation to her; he saluted her upon that: and lifted up his voice, and wept; for joy at the providence of God that had brought him so opportunely to the place, and at the sight of a person so nearly related to him; and who he hoped would be his wife, and was the person designed of God for him.
