About this listen

In Genesis 31, Jacob decides to leave Laban, his father-in-law, after years of service. He secretly departs with his family and flocks, fearing Laban's reaction. Will Jacob's stealthy escape succeed, or will Laban catch up to him? In Matthew 12:1-21, Jesus challenges traditional Sabbath laws by allowing his disciples to pluck grain. The Pharisees confront him, accusing them of breaking the law. Will Jesus' teachings of compassion override strict Sabbath observance, or will the Pharisees' criticism prevail?
