Understanding God's Heart For Us in Song
41 Whenever the stronger of the flock conceived, Jacob laid the rods in front of the eyes of the flock in the watering troughs, that they might conceive among the rods;
42 but when the flock were feeble, he didn’t put them in. So the feebler were Laban’s, and the stronger Jacob’s.
43 The man increased exceedingly, and had large flocks, female servants and male servants, and camels and donkeys.
