Génesis 29:5 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 29:5

And he said unto them, know ye Laban the son of Nahor?
&c.] He was the son of Bethuel, and grandson of Nahor; grandsons being called the sons of their grandfather; and Nahor might be more known than Bethuel, Haran being Nahor's city, ( Genesis 24:10 ) ; and not Bethuel his mother's father, but Laban her brother is inquired after; perhaps Bethuel was dead, and Laban was the head of the family, and well known, and it was to him he was sent: and they said, we know him;
perfectly well; he lives in our city, and is our neighbour.

Génesis 29:5 In-Context

3 Por eso los pastores corrían la piedra solo cuando estaban juntos todos los rebaños, y luego de abrevar a las ovejas volvían a colocarla en su lugar, sobre la boca del pozo.
4 Jacob les preguntó a los pastores:—¿De dónde son ustedes?—Somos de Jarán —respondieron.
5 —¿Conocen a Labán, el hijo de Najor? —volvió a preguntar Jacob.—Claro que sí —respondieron.
6 Jacob siguió preguntando:—¿Se encuentra bien de salud?—Sí, está bien —le contestaron—. A propósito, ahí viene su hija Raquel con las ovejas.
7 Entonces Jacob les dijo:—Todavía estamos en pleno día, y es muy temprano para encerrar el rebaño. ¿Por qué no les dan de beber a las ovejas y las llevan a pastar?
