A church father on this verse
“See how envy drove them to ingratitude, and not only them but also Laban himself. "Jacob saw Laban's attitude to him," the text goes on, remember, "and, lo, it was not as it had previously been." You see, his sons' words deranged his mind and made him forget what he had said some time before in conversation with Jacob…”
