1But last of all, he was so quickly pacified, that when his Father did alone intimate (and not plainly make) a confession of his fault, by requesting a Covenant of peace betwixt them, quickly without any words he condescended, and makes a feast for Laban and the rest, and confirms the Covenant by an oath, as you may read it in Gen. 31.45. to the end.

- 1He was quickly pacified with his Father in Law.
Here is a man of a quiet spirit indeed! His Father in Law had wronged him formerly, and presently, by pursuing him, and by charging him to have stolen his Idols, which he foolishly calleth gods, yet he had so soon forgotten all this, as at the first word to embrace an offer of reconciliation, and to enter into a Covenant with him of ⟨p. 67⟩peaceable carriage to himself and his daughters. It is a most excellent grace to be quickly and easily pacified, and to blot out the remembrance of wrongs, and to carry himself lovingly to such a man as hath offered him hard measure, and that also many times, even as if he had received no such injury from him.
