“And he took them, and sent them over the brook, and sent over that he had.”
After he had sent them across the stream, he sent over all his possessions. Jacob sends everything and everyone across but stays behind himself — alone in the liminal space between Laban's country and Esau's. The application: significant spiritual encounters often require the shedding of company, possessions, and distractions. Jacob sends everything across and stays alone.
