Genesis 31:42

Studie

       

42 unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham, and the Fear of Isaac, had been for me, surely now empty thou hadst sent me away; mine affliction and the labour of my hands hath God seen, and reproveth yesternight.'

4133. 'That you have stolen my heart' means that it no longer possessed Divine good as it had done previously. This is clear from the meaning of 'stealing the heart' as taking away that which is cherished and holy, dealt with above in 4112, and so means that through that separation it no longer possessed Divine good as it had done previously.
