1.Jacob, displeased with the envy of Laban and his sons, departs secretly.
19.Rachel steals her father's household gods.

And although he has cheated me and changed my wages ten times
This phrase reflects Jacob's experience with Laban, his father-in-law, who repeatedly altered the terms of their agreement regarding Jacob's wages. This behavior is consistent with Laban's earlier actions, such as deceiving Jacob into marrying Leah before Rachel. The number "ten" is often used in the Bible to signify completeness or fullness, suggesting that Laban's actions were thoroughly unjust. This reflects the broader biblical theme of human deceit and the challenges faced by God's people. The cultural context of the time allowed for such agreements to be made verbally, and Laban's repeated changes would have been seen as a serious breach of trust.

God has not allowed him to harm me
Despite Laban's attempts to exploit Jacob, God's protection over Jacob is evident. This phrase underscores the biblical theme of divine providence and protection. It echoes the promise God made to Jacob at Bethel (Genesis 28:15), where God assured him of His presence and protection. This divine safeguarding is a recurring theme in the lives of the patriarchs, as seen in the protection of Abraham and Isaac. It also foreshadows the New Testament assurance of God's protection over believers, as seen inRomans 8:31, "If God is for us, who can be against us?" This protection is a type of Christ, who ultimately delivers and protects His people from spiritual harm.

Lists and Questions
Top 10 Lessons from Genesis 31

In Genesis 31:41, Jacob claims Laban changed his wages ten times, yet no detailed account shows each change; does this raise questions of consistency or exaggeration?

In Genesis 31:19, what historical evidence supports the existence or importance of household gods (teraphim), and how does it reconcile with monotheism?

In Genesis 31:24, why would God communicate with Laban if Laban worshipped other gods, and how does this align with other biblical passages about idolatry?

Exodus 31:15 - Why does a just and loving God mandate the death penalty for Sabbath-breaking, and how is that reconciled with later biblical teachings on mercy?(7)Ten times.--That is, a good many times.

Verse 7. -And your father hath deceived me, -הֵתֵל, the hiph. ofתָּלַל, means to rob or plunder (Furst), or to cause to fall, as in the cognate languages, whence to deceive (Gesenius) -and changed my wages ten times; -i.e. many times, as inNumbers 14:22;Job 19:3 (Rosenmüller, Bush, Kalisch, Lange); as often as possible, the number ten expressing the idea of completeness (Keil, Murphy) -but God (Elohim, Jacob purposing to say that he had been protected, not by human stratagem, but by Divine interposition)suffered him not to hurt me - literally,to do evil to me. The verb here construed withעִמָּד =עִם is sometimes followed byעַל (1 Kings 17:20), and sometimes byבְּ (1 Chronicles 16:22).
