Genesis Chapter 28 - Jacob departs to Haran

Isaac tells Jacob to return to the house of his mother‘s brother Laban, and to take a wife from among Laban‘s daughters. He also instructed Jacob to not take away from the Canaanite women. Esau perceives of the Canaanite women are evil in his father‘s eyes and so he takes a daughter of Ishmael as his third wife. Jacob dreams, a dream of a ladder between heaven and earth. YHVH blesses Jacob as he had done with Isaac and also as he had done with Abraham. Jacob vows to repeatedly tied to God, the blessings bestow upon him if God agrees to be a God to him and to protect him.
