16 וַיָּבֹא יַעֲקֹב* מִן־הַשָּׂדֶה בָּעֶרֶב וַתֵּצֵא לֵאָה לִקְרָאתֹו וַתֹּאמֶר אֵלַי תָּבֹוא כִּי שָׂכֹר שְׂכַרְתִּיךָ בְּדוּדָאֵי בְּנִי וַיִּשְׁכַּב עִמָּהּ בַּלַּיְלָה הוּא׃

3992. I will pass through all thy flock this day. That this signifies that He perceives the quality of all the good, is evident from the signification of a “flock,” as being good (see n. 343, 3518); and from the signification of “passing through it all,” as being to know and perceive its quality.
