Genesi 50:10

And they came to the threshingfloor of Atad, which [is] beyond Jordan, and there they mourned with a great and very sore lamentation: and he made a mourning for his father seven days.

Ver. 10. And he made a mourning for his father.] Not seventy days, as those infidels did, Genesi 50:3. But why mourned he at all, since God had signified his will? So far forth as something concurs with God's will that is grievous to us, we may mourn moderately without offence.
