THE WORD OF ELOHIM
GENESIS
Chapter 31
Paragraph 5:
Rachel stole her father’s household idols.
In paragraph 5 of chapter 30, in Genesis Laban said to Ya’akov:
“If you will indulge me, I have learned by divination that Yehovah has blessed me on your account.”
There one story that I have heard, passed down through the sages of Israel that Rachel stole the household idols, in order to protect Ya’akov. If she believed in the power of divination, it would have been understandable to do so.
