Lev 23:42-43:
42 You all must live in shelters for seven days—all you native-born Israelis, 43 so that the future generations will know that I made their ancestors live in shelters when I brought them out of Mitsrayim (Egypt). I am your god Yahweh.
Gen 29:1-20:
29 Then Ya’akov (Jacob) got on the road again and went to the land of the eastern peoples. 2 Close to his destination, he looked ahead, and wow, there was a well in the countryside, and what’s more, three flocks of sheep and goats were lying there near it, because the flocks were watered from that well but the stone over the mouth of the well was large and heavy. 3 Once all the flocks were gathered there, then they would roll the stone from over the mouth of the well and water the animals. Then they would return the stone to its place over the mouth of the well.
4 So Ya’akov asked the farmers, “My brothers, where are you from?”
“We’re from Haran,” they replied.
5 “Do you know Nahor’s grandson Lavan (Laban)?” Ya’akov asked.
“Yes, we know him,” they replied.
6 “Is he doing well?” Ya’akov asked.
“Yes, he’s fine,” they said, “and here comes his daughter Rahel (Rachel) with their flock.”
7 “Look, it’s still broad daylight,” Ya’akov told them. “It’s not time for the livestock to be brought it. Water the flock, and go pasture them.”
8 “We can’t,” they said, “until all the flocks are gathered here and they roll the stone off the top of the well. Then we will water the sheep.”
9 He was still talking with them when Rahel came with her father’s flock, because she was the one who looked after them. 10 When Ya’akov saw Rahel (the daughter of his mother’s brother, Lavan (Laban)) with Lavan’s flock, he went over and rolled the stone off the top of the well and watered the sheep and goats. 11 Then he gave Rahel a kiss and happily cried out loud. 12 Then he told Rahel that he was a relative of her father and that he was a son of Rivkah.
Then she ran and told her father, 13 and when Lavan heard the news about his sister’s son Ya’akov, he ran out to meet him. Then he embraced him and kissed him and brought him to his house. Then Ya’akov told Lavan everything that had happened up until then, 14 and Lavan told him, “You are indeed a close relative.”
After Ya’akov (Jacob) had stayed with Lavan (Laban) and worked for him for a whole month, 15 Lavan said to him, “Should you work for me for nothing just because you’re my relative? Tell me, what should I pay you?”
16 Now Lavan had two daughters: the older one was named Le’ah, and the younger one was named Rahel (Rachel). 17 Le’ah had pretty eyes, but Rahel was extremely beautiful in every way.
18 Now Ya’akov was in love with Rahel, so he answered, “I’ll work for you for seven years so I can marry your younger daughter Rahel.”
19 “Okay, stay with me then,” said Lavan. “It’s better for me to give her to you than to give her to some other man.”
20 So Ya’akov worked seven years for Rahel, but it only seemed like a few days to him because of his love for her,
Exo 12:50-51:
50 All the Israelis followed those instructions that Yahweh had given through Mosheh and Aharon, 51 and so on that very day, Yahweh took all the Israelis out of Mitsrayim (Egypt) grouped by their family divisions.
