Jacob spent the night there The phrase "Jacob spent the night there" indicates a pause in Jacob's journey, a moment of reflection and preparation. The Hebrew root for "spent the night" is "לון" (lun), which can also mean to lodge or to tarry. This suggests a temporary but significant stop, a time for Jacob to gather his thoughts and prepare for the impending encounter with Esau. Historically, this moment is pivotal as it marks a transition from fear to faith, where Jacob is about to face the consequences of his past actions with his brother. and from what he had brought with him he selected a gift for his brother Esau Of that which came to his hand.--Heb., of that which came in his hand. Some Jewish interpreters take the phrase literally, and suppose that it was precious stones; more truly it means "what he possessed," or what he had with him. The phrase "which came to his hand" would imply that he made no selection, but took what came first in his way.
