Genesis 27:43

Now therefore, my son, obey my voice; and arise, flee to Laban my brother to Haran;
All Commentaries on Genesis 27:43 Go To Genesis 27

Ambrose of Milan

We have heard the words of an intemperance that is drunk with bodily desires; let us consider the deeds of true virtue. Virtue needs nothing but the grace of God. It pursues the only and supreme good, and it is content with that only good from which we receive all things but on which we bestow nothing because it has no need of anything, just as David says, “I have said to the Lord, ‘You are my Lord, for you have no need of my goods.’ ” And what does the Lord need, when he abounds in all things and imparts everything to us, while providing all things without deficiency? Jacob and the Happy Life.
