32 With whomsoever thou findest thy gods, let him not live: before our brethren discern thou what is thine with me, and take it to thee: for Jacob knew not that Rachel had stolen them.

4064. 'Jacob has taken all that belonged to our father' means that every aspect of good meant by 'Jacob' had been given to Him from that source, that is to say, from that intermediate good. This becomes clear without explanation. None had in actual fact been given to Him, as is evident from what follows. It was 'the sons of Laban' who said it.
