LITERARY -
Passing on the Blessing to Jacon, but it seems that this blessing is far off reality.
Again, an heir must find a bride in a far off country and that is what Jacob must do.
Unlike his dad, who had a servant secure a bride for him, Jacob is responsible for finding his own bride.
HISTORICAL -
Israel is still wandering in the wilderness longing to go back home.
