Genesi 30:43 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 30:43

And the man increased exceedingly
Jacob grew very rich: and had much cattle;
the greater part of Laban's flocks brought forth speckled, spotted, and brown cattle, which, according to agreement, were Jacob's: and maidservants, and menservants;
which he got to take care of his household affairs, and to assist him in keeping his flocks: and camels, and asses;
for his flocks increasing so very much, he sold many of his sheep at a good price, as Jarchi observes, and with it bought camels and asses; and these were very fit for his use, when he should be obliged or think fit to remove into his own country, and which he was meditating, and had a direction from the Lord for, as in the following chapter.

Genesi 30:43 In-Context

41 Or avveniva che, tutte le volte che le pecore vigorose del gregge entravano in caldo, Giacobbe metteva le verghe ne’ rigagnoli, in vista delle pecore, perché le pecore entrassero in caldo vicino alle verghe;

42 ma quando le pecore erano deboli, non ve le metteva; così gli agnelli deboli erano di Labano, e i vigorosi di Giacobbe.

43 E quest’uomo diventò ricco oltremodo, ed ebbe greggi numerosi, serve, servi, cammelli e asini.
