And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field to his flock,
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field to his flock,
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock,
And Jacob sent for Rachel and Leah to come to him in the field among his flock.
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah into the field to his flock,
Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field to his flock,
And Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah to the field unto his flock,
Jacob sent and called Rachel and Leah - He had probably been at some considerable distance with the flocks; and for the greater secrecy, he rather sends for them to the field, to consult them on this most momentous affair, than visit them in their tents, where probably some of the family of Laban might overhear their conversation, though Laban himself was at the time three days' journey off. It is possible that Jacob shore his sheep at the same time; and that he sent for his wives and household furniture to erect tents on the spot, that they might partake of the festivities usual on such occasions. Thus they might all depart without being suspected.
31:4 And Jacob sent for Rachel and Leah to the field - That he might discourse with them more privately.
