NET © Notes |
1 map For location see Map4 G4; Map5 C1; Map6 E3; Map7 D1; Map8 G3. 2 sn You anointed the sacred stone. In Gen 28:18 the text simply reported that Jacob poured oil on top of the stone. Now that pouring is interpreted by the 3 sn And made a vow to me. The second clause reminds Jacob of the vow he made to the 4 tn Heb “arise, leave!” The first imperative draws attention to the need for immediate action. sn Leave this land immediately. The decision to leave was a wise one in view of the changed attitude in Laban and his sons. But more than that, it was the will of God. Jacob needed to respond to God’s call – the circumstances simply made it easier. |
