Laban was a key figure in the Old Testament, appearing primarily in the book of Genesis. He was the brother of Rebekah, making him the uncle of Jacob. Laban lived in Haran and played a significant role in the lives of both Jacob and his daughters, Leah and Rachel.

When Jacob fled from Esau, he sought refuge with Laban, who later tricked him into working 14 years to marry Rachel by first deceiving him into marrying Leah. Laban was known for being cunning and manipulative, often seeking personal gain. Despite his deceit, Jacob prospered under his service, as God blessed him abundantly.

Laban’s pursuit of Jacob after his departure further displayed his controlling nature, but ultimately, they made a covenant of peace. His significance in biblical history lies in how God’s plan prevailed despite human deception, showing that divine blessings cannot be hindered by man’s schemes.
