In a tender yet firm tone, Isaac summons his son, Jacob, imparting a vital instruction laced with a hope for divine favor. He firmly advises against marrying from Canaan, urging Jacob instead to journey to the ancestral lands of Padan Aram. There, among the family of Bethuel, Jacob is to find a bride, sealing a bond with Laban’s daughters, his kin through his mother.

Isaac’s voice softens as he invokes the Almighty’s blessings upon Jacob. With a hopeful gaze, he prays for bountiful progeny, envisioning an assembly of thriving communities birthed from Jacob's lineage. He beseeches God to extend Abraham's blessings onto Jacob, entrusting him and his future generations with the cherished land, a sacred inheritance once bestowed upon Abraham.

With a mix of anticipation and reverence, Jacob heeds his father’s counsel. As Isaac sends him forth, Jacob embarks on a journey to Padan Aram, towards Laban, his uncle, embracing the profound familial and divine quest laid before him, with faith as his compass in seeking a companion to share in God's promise.
