TSNTyndale Study Notes:

21:15-17 The law required that a firstborn son receive the greater share of his father’s inheritance (see 21:15-16; 2 Kgs 2:9). The custom of giving the firstborn son a double portion is first recorded here but was implied in earlier practice (see Gen 25:31-34; 27:1-4; 48:8-22).
• son of his father’s virility: The eldest male child carried this distinction because he proved that the man was capable of siring children, and a boy in particular.
