sent away Jacob . Whoever observes Jacob's life , after he had surreptitiously obtained his father's blessing , will perceive that he enjoyed very little worldly felicity. His brother purposed to murder him , to avoid which he was forced to flee from his father's house; his uncle Laban deceived him , as he had deceived his father , and treated him with great rigour; after a servitude of 21 years , he was obliged to leave him in a clandestine manner , not without danger of being brought back , or murdered by his enraged brother; no sooner were these fears over , than he experienced the baseness of his son Reuben , in defiling his bed; he had next to bewail the treachery and cruelty of Simeon and Levi toward the Shechemites; then he had to feel the loss of his beloved wife; he was next imposed upon by his own sons , and had to lament the supposed untimely end of Joseph; and to complete all , he was forced by famine to go into Egypt , and there died , in a strange land. So just , wonderful , and instructive are all the ways of Providence!
