[208] 38 ἄγαμαι σφόδρα καὶ τὴν ὑπομονὴν Ῥεβέκκαν, ἐπειδὰν τῷ τελείῳ τὴν ψυχὴν καὶ τὰς
τῶν παθῶν καὶ κακιῶν τραχύτητας καθῃρηκότι παραινῇ τότε εἰς Χαρρὰν ἀποδρᾶναι· λέγει γάρ· "νῦν οὖν, τέκνον, ἄκουσον τῆς φωνῆς μου καὶ ἀναστὰς ἀπόδραθι πρὸς Λάβαν τὸν ἀδελφόν μου εἰς Χαρρὰν καὶ οἴκησον μετ’ αὐτοῦ ἡμέρας τινάς, ἕως τοῦ ἀποστρέψαι τὸν θυμὸν καὶ τὴν ὀργὴν τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ σου ἀπὸ σοῦ, καὶ ἐπιλάθηται ἃ πεποίηκας αὐτῷ“ (Gen. 27, 43 — 45).

I very much admire Rebecca, who is patience, because she, at that time, recommends the man who is perfect in his soul, and who has destroyed the roughnesses of the passions and vices, to flee and return to Charran; for she says, "Now, therefore, my child, hear my voice, and rise up and depart, and flee away to Laban, my brother, to Charran, and dwell with him certain days, until the anger and rage of thy ¹ brother is turned from being against thee, and till he forgets what thou hast done to him." ²
