Genesis 27:43 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 27:43

Now therefore, my son, obey my voice
Hearken to what I say, and do according to it, as he had already in many instances, and particularly in a late one, in which he succeeded, and therefore had good reason to attend to her advice and direction, see ( Genesis 27:13 ) ; and arise, flee thou to Laban my brother, to Haran;
where Laban her brother, dwelt.

Genesis 27:43 In-Context

41 Esau hated Jacob, because his father had given Jacob the blessing. He thought, "The time to mourn my father's death is near; then I will kill Jacob."

42 But when Rebecca heard about Esau's plan, she sent for Jacob and said, "Listen, your brother Esau is planning to get even with you and kill you.

43 Now, son, do what I say. Go at once to my brother Laban in Haran,

44 and stay with him for a while, until your brother's anger cools down

45 and he forgets what you have done to him. Then I will send someone to bring you back. Why should I lose both of my sons on the same day?"
