Gênesis 28:5 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 28:5

And Isaac sent away Jacob
From Beersheba; not in anger, or in a dishonourable way, but took his leave of him no doubt in an affectionate manner; as it is clear he went with his blessing, and had his good wishes for a prosperous journey: and he went to Padanaram;
which from Beersheba, according to some F8, was four hundred and eighty miles: unto Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian;
some versions make Laban to be the Syrian, others Bethuel; it is a matter of no great moment which is here so called, since they were both called Syrians, see ( Genesis 25:20 ) : the brother of Rebekah;
this refers to Laban, for Bethuel was her father: Jacob's and Esau's mother;
Jacob is set first, not only as being most beloved by his mother, but as now having the birthright and the blessing.

3 Que o Deus todo-poderoso o abençoe, faça-o prolĂ­fero e multiplique os seus descendentes, para que vocĂȘ se torne uma comunidade de povos.
4 Que ele dĂȘ a vocĂȘ e a seus descendentes a bĂȘnção de AbraĂŁo, para que vocĂȘ tome posse da terra na qual vive como estrangeiro, a terra dada por Deus a AbraĂŁo”.
5 EntĂŁo Isaque despediu JacĂł e este foi a PadĂŁ-ArĂŁ, a LabĂŁo, filho do arameu Betuel, irmĂŁo de Rebeca, mĂŁe de JacĂł e EsaĂș.
6 EsaĂș viu que Isaque havia abençoado a JacĂł e o havia mandado a PadĂŁ-ArĂŁ para escolher ali uma mulher e que, ao abençoĂĄ-lo, dera-lhe a ordem de nĂŁo se casar com mulher cananeia.
7 Também soube que Jacó obedecera a seu pai e a sua mãe e fora para Padã-Arã.
