**and came into the land**
Jacob at Haran becomes a sterling illustration, if not type, of the nation descended from him in its present long dispersion. Like Israel, he was:
(1) Out of the place of blessing [Genesis 26:3](../../../kjv/genesis/26/3).
(2) without an altar [Hosea 3:4](../../../kjv/hosea/3/4); [Hosea 3:5](../../../kjv/hosea/3/5).
(3) gained an evil name [Genesis 31:1](../../../kjv/genesis/31/1); [Romans 2:17-24](../../../kjv/romans/2/17-24).
(4) but was under the covenant care of Jehovah [Genesis 28:13](../../../kjv/genesis/28/13); [Genesis 28:14](../../../kjv/genesis/28/14); [Romans 11:1](../../../kjv/romans/11/1); [Romans 11:25-30](../../../kjv/romans/11/25-30).
(5) and was ultimately brought back [Genesis 31:3](../../../kjv/genesis/31/3); [Genesis 35:1-4](../../../kjv/genesis/35/1-4); [Ezekiel 37:21-23](../../../kjv/ezekiel/37/21-23).
The personal lesson is obvious: while Jacob is not forsaken, he is permitted to reap the shame and sorrow of his self-chosen way.
