SEV Biblia, Chapter 30:30
porque poco tenías antes de mi venida , y ha crecido en multitud; y el SEÑOR te ha bendecido con mi entrada; y ahora ¿cuándo tengo de hacer yo también por mi propia casa?
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 30:30
Verse 30. For it was little which thou had before I came] Jacob takes advantage of the concession made by his father- in-law, and asserts that it was for his sake that the Lord had blessed him: Since my coming, ylgrl leragli, according to my footsteps - every step I took in thy service, God prospered to the multiplication of thy flocks and property. When shall I provide for mine own house] Jacob had already laid his plan; and, from what is afterwards mentioned, we find him using all his skill and experience to provide for his family by a rapid increase of his flocks.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 25-43 - The fourteen years being gone, Jacob was willing to depart without an provision, except God's promise. But he had in many ways a just claim on Laban's substance, and it was the will of God that he should be provided for from it. He referred his cause to God, rather than agre for stated wages with Laban, whose selfishness was very great. And it would appear that he acted honestly, when none but those of the colour fixed upon should be found among his cattle. Laban selfishly though that his cattle would produce few different in colour from their own Jacob's course after this agreement has been considered an instance of his policy and management. But it was done by intimation from God, an as a token of his power. The Lord will one way or another plead the cause of the oppressed, and honour those who simply trust his providence. Neither could Laban complain of Jacob, for he had nothin more than was freely agreed that he should have; nor was he injured but greatly benefitted by Jacob's services. May all our mercies be received with thanksgiving and prayer, that coming from his bounty they may lead to his praise __________________________________________________________________
