40:38 the whole family of Israel: This description is reminiscent of the way the book began (see 1:1-7). Jacob’s family had become slaves in Egypt. What a dramatic change had occurred! They were no longer slaves. They were now in a position to be a blessing to the earth, as God had promised to Abraham generations earlier (Gen 12:3).
