Genesi 31:3 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 31:3

And the Lord said unto Jacob
In answer to a prayer of his; or seeing what difficulties and discouragements Jacob laboured under, he appeared unto him for his encouragement and instruction how to proceed: return unto the land of thy fathers;
the land of Canaan, given to Abraham and Isaac by promise: and to thy kindred:
his father and mother, and brother, who all dwelt in the land of Canaan at this time, or as many as were living: or "to thy nativity" F23, the place where he was born, and to which he must have a natural desire to return: and I will be with thee;
to protect him from any injury that might be attempted to be done unto him, either by Laban or Esau.

Genesi 31:3 In-Context

1 OR egli udì le parole de’ figliuoli di Labano, che dicevano: Giacobbe ha tolto a nostro padre tutto il suo avere; e di quello ch’era di nostra padre, egli ha acquistata tutta questa dovizia.
2 Giacobbe ancora vide che la faccia di Labano non era verso lui qual soleva esser per addietro.
3 E il Signore disse a Giacobbe: Ritornatene al paese de’ tuoi, ed al tuo luogo natio, ed io sarò teco.
4 E Giacobbe mandò a chiamar Rachele e Lea, a’ campi, presso della sua greggia.
5 E disse loro: Io veggo che la faccia di vostro padre non è inverso me qual soleva esser per addietro; e pur l’Iddio di mio padre è stato meco.
