And Jacob was wroth, and chode with Laban: and Jacob answered and said to Laban, What [is] my trespass? what [is] my sin, that thou hast so hotly pursued after me?
Ver. 36. And Jacob was wroth, and chode.] An angry expostulation; but not without some error, in the heat of altercation. "Be angry, and sin not," Eph 4:26 is, saith one, the easiest charge, under the hardest condition, that can be. It is difficult to kindle and keep quick the fire of zeal, which is the best kind of anger, without all smoke of sin.
