“And tarry with him a few days, until thy brother’s fury turn away;”
Stay with him for a while until your brother's fury subsides. The phrase a while will turn into twenty years. Rebekah's planning again underestimates the duration and cost of what she has set in motion. The application: the plans we make in crisis tend to underestimate how long the consequences last. A while becomes a generation.
