Genesis 31:22 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 31:22

And it was told Laban on the third day, that Jacob was fled.
] Three days after Jacob was gone he had the report of it, by some means or another; by some of his neighbours, or servants left at home, and sooner he could not well have it, since the flock he went to shear was three days' distance from Jacob's, ( Genesis 30:36 ) .
