And the flocks conceived before the rods, and brought forth cattle ringstraked, speckled, and spotted.
Y los rebaños se aparearon frente a las varas, y dieron a luz crías rayadas, manchadas y moteadas.
Los animales del rebaño se reprodujeron cerca de las varas y nacieron crías con diferentes patrones de color.
📚 Contexto Histórico
This occurs during Jacob's time working for his father-in-law Laban in Mesopotamia. Jacob had agreed to take only the striped and spotted animals as his wages, so he employed various methods (including placing peeled rods near where the animals mated) believing this would influence the appearance of their offspring. This was part of Jacob's strategy to build his own wealth while working for Laban, who had repeatedly changed Jacob's wages.
