Genesis 33:15-17

Expanded Bible

¹⁵ So Esau said, “Then let me leave some of my people with you.”

“No, thank you,” said Jacob. “·I only want to please you, my master [^LWhy should I find such grace/favor in the eyes of my master/lord?].” ¹⁶ So that day Esau started back to ·Edom [^LSeir; 14:6]. ¹⁷ But Jacob went to Succoth, where he built a house for himself and ·shelters [booths] for his animals. That is why the place was named Succoth [^Csounds like “shelter” in Hebrew].
