1Further, Jacob was a painful and industrious person, for when he came to Padan Aram, and met with the Shepherds, and with Rachel coming with her Fathers flocks, he advised them concerning the ordering of their cattle, and himself rolled away the stone from the Wells mouth, and watered Rachels sheep. Chap. 29.8, 9, 10. and afterwards, he abode in Labans house for a month, he did not live idly there, but behaved himself so painfully and serviceably, that Laban himself made him offer of wages, saying, Thou shalt not serve me for nought: so that Laban found him a painful and serviceable man, which made him willing to entertain him. But especially when he had undertaken the care of his Father in Laws sheep, He served him with all his might, as he tells his two wives, Chap. 31.6. Which also he allegeth to Labans self, In the day the drought consumed me, and the frost by night, and sleep departed from mine eyes. Chap. 31. 40. You see, that he was not idle, careless, and sluggish, but very diligent and laborious.
