Gênesis 31:16 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 31:16

For all the riches which God hath taken from our father
And given to Jacob for his labour: that [is] ours, and our children's;
it belonged to us by the law of nature, before it came into thine hands; and our right unto it is still more manifest, and is confirmed by the service thou hast done for it, by which means it came into thy possession; and therefore it is no point of conscience with us, nor need it be any with thee especially, to go off with it: now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do;
for that must needs be right: this was well spoken indeed; they mean, that he should leave their father's house, and go into the land of Canaan, as God had directed him; and they signified that they were willing: to go along with him.

Gênesis 31:16 In-Context

14 Raquel e Lia disseram a Jacó: “Temos ainda parte na herança dos bens de nosso pai?
15 Não nos trata ele como estrangeiras? Não apenas nos vendeu como também gastou tudo o que foi pago por nós!
16 Toda a riqueza que Deus tirou de nosso pai é nossa e de nossos filhos. Portanto, faça tudo quanto Deus lhe ordenou”.
17 Então Jacó ajudou seus filhos e suas mulheres a montar nos camelos,
18 e conduziu todo o seu rebanho, junto com todos os bens que havia acumulado em Padã-Arã, para ir à terra de Canaã, à casa de seu pai, Isaque.
