Chuàngshìjì 31:41 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 31:41

Thus have I been twenty years in thy house
Attended with these difficulties, inconveniencies, and hardships; I served thee fourteen years for thy two daughters;
Rachel and Leah; first seven years for Rachel; and having Leah imposed upon him instead of her, was obliged to serve seven years more, which he did for her sake; whereas he ought to have given them, and a dowry with them, to one who was heir to the land of Canaan, and not have exacted servitude of him: and six years for thy cattle,
to have as many of them for his hire, as were produced from a flock of white sheep, that were speckled, spotted, or ringstraked, or brown: and thou hast changed my wages ten times; (See Gill on Genesis 31:7);
