Rivka had a brother, and his name was Lavan. Lavan ran out to the man, to the spring.
Yitzchak was forty years old when he took Rivka, the daughter of Betu'el the Syrian of Paddan-Aram 1, the sister of Lavan the Syrian, to be his wife.
His mother said to him, *Let your curse be on me, my son. Only obey my voice, and go get them for me.*
The words of Esav, her elder son, were told to Rivka. She sent and called Ya`akov, her younger son, and said to him, *Behold, your brother Esav comforts himself about you by planning to kill you.
Now therefore, my son, obey my voice according to that which I command you.
Yitzchak sent Ya`akov away. He went to Paddan-Aram 1 to Lavan, son of Betu'el the Syrian, Rivka's brother, Ya`akov's and Esav's mother.
and that Ya`akov obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Paddan-Aram 1.
God said to Ya`akov, *Arise, go up to Beit-El, and live there. Make there an altar to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esav your brother.*

But Kefa and the emissaries answered, *We must obey God rather than men.
