Its time for Yaakov to leave home and get married as his parents have told him and he sets off for Charan. On his way he passes the site of the future Beit Hamikdash and stops to rest. He has a dream about a ladder with angels going up and down. G-d talks to him and tells him amongst other things “I am with you” reassuring him on what is going to be a fraught few decades ahead. Yaakov awakens and pledges to give tithes to G-d and continues to Charan where he meets Rochel who was his cousin. She takes her home to her father Lavan and Yaakov offers to work for Lavan in exchange for getting Rochel as his wife. Lavan tricks Yaakov and gives him Leah instead. Eventually Yaakov also marries Rochel and the 2 maidservants Bilhah and Zilpah. There are eleven boys and one girl born in this week’s Sidra with the youngest boy in next week’s. Yaakov and Lavan discuss what wage Yaakov should receive for his efforts in looking after Lavan’s flock, and Lavan cheats many times so Yaakov performs some wonderful methods to ensure he receives his due earnings. Yaakov takes his family and leaves Lavan’s house on his return journey to the Promised land. Further ups and downs to follow.
