Laban has been very deceitful and has not dealt fairly with him. Plus, Jacob noticed that Laban and his sons’ countenance towards him has become quite toxic. So, he decides to secretly flee with all that he has and return to his father’s house. He flees, but Rachel secretly takes her father’s household idols. Laban discovers that Jacob has left and hotly pursues him. God encounters Laban in a dream and warns him not to trouble Jacob. Laban meets with him accuses Jacob of being deceptive and that he has stolen his household god. Jacob permits Laban to search his household; and after finding nothing, he hotly rebukes Laban. They then make a covenant and Laban returns home. 00:00 - Review 05:07 - Jacob flees explaining to his wives 12:17 - Rachel and Leah responds and agrees 21:00 - Laban pursue Jacob 26:37 - Jacob submits to being searched by Laban 35:00 - The covenant between Lban and Jacob 44:54 - Preview of Genesis Chapter 32
