Clarke's Genesis 35:27 Bible Commentary
The city of Arbah, (which is Hebron) - See Genesis 23:2. It has been conjectured that Jacob must have paid a visit to his father before this time, as previously to this he had been some years in Canaan; but now, as he was approaching to his end, Jacob is supposed to have gone to live with and comfort him in his declining days.
Wesley's Genesis 35:27 Bible Commentary
35:27 And Jacob came unto Isaac his father — We may suppose he had visited him before since his return, for he sore longed after his father's house, but never 'till now brought his family to settle with him, or near him. Probably he did this now upon the death of Rebekah, by which Isaac was left solitary.
