SEV Biblia, Chapter 31:46
Y dijo Jacob a sus hermanos: Coged piedras. Y tomaron piedras e hicieron un majano; y comieron allí sobre aquel majano.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 31:46
Verse 46. Made a heap] lg gal, translated heap, signifies properly a round heap; and this heap was probably made for the double purpose of an altar and a table, and Jacob's stone or pillar was set on it for the purpose of a memorial.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 43-55 - Laban could neither justify himself nor condemn Jacob, therefor desires to hear no more of that matter. He is not willing to ow himself in fault, as he ought to have done. But he proposes a covenan of friendship between them, to which Jacob readily agrees. A heap of stones was raised, to keep up the memory of the event, writing being then not known or little used. A sacrifice of peace offerings wa offered. Peace with God puts true comfort into our peace with ou friends. They did eat bread together, partaking of the feast upon the sacrifice. In ancient times covenants of friendship were ratified by the parties eating and drinking together. God is judge betwee contending parties, and he will judge righteously; whoever do wrong, it is at their peril. They gave a new name to the place, The heap of witness. After this angry parley, they part friends. God is ofte better to us than our fears, and overrules the spirits of men in ou favour, beyond what we could have expected; for it is not in vain to trust in him __________________________________________________________________
