Genesis 32:23 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 32:23

And he took them, and sent them over the brook
His wives and children, under the care of some of his servants: and sent over that he had:
all that belonged to him, his servants and his cattle or goods.

Genesis 32:23 In-Context

21 He sent the gifts on ahead of him and spent that night in camp.
22 That same night Jacob got up, took his two wives, his two concubines, and his eleven children, and crossed the Jabbok River.
23 After he had sent them across, he also sent across all that he owned,
24 but he stayed behind, alone. Then a man came and wrestled with him until just before daybreak.
25 When the man saw that he was not winning the struggle, he hit Jacob on the hip, and it was thrown out of joint.
