Génesis 29:6 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 29:6

And he said unto them, [is] he well?
&c.] In good health, he and his family, or "is peace unto him" F2; does he enjoy prosperity and happiness? for this word was used in the eastern nations, and still is, for all kind of felicity: and they said, [he is] well;
or has peace; he and his family are in good health, enjoying all the comforts and blessings of life: and, behold, Rachel his daughter cometh with the sheep;
at that very instant she was coming out of the city with her father's flock of sheep, to water them at the well; an instance of great humility, diligence, and simplicity; this was very providential to Jacob.

Génesis 29:6 In-Context

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?
8 Y ellos respondieron:—No podemos hacerlo hasta que se junten todos los rebaños y los pastores quiten la piedra que está sobre la boca del pozo. Solo entonces podremos dar de beber a las ovejas.
