Feeling that Laban's attitude has changed and sensing God's call to return to his homeland, Jacob secretly departs with his wives, children, and livestock. Laban pursues Jacob, leading to a tense confrontation. However, God intervenes, warning Laban not to harm Jacob. The two men eventually come to an agreement, establishing a covenant at Galeed, marking the boundary between their territories.
