King James Version (KJV)
26:5 A Syrian - So Jacob was, partly by his original, as being born of Syrian parents, as were Abraham and Rebecca, both of Chaldea or Mesopotamia, which was a part of Syria largely so called, partly by his education and conversation; and partly by his relations, his wives being such, and his children too by their mother's. Ready to perish - Either through want and poverty; (See #Gen 28:11|,20 32:10,) or through the rage of his brother Esau, and the treachery of his father - in - law Laban.
