"Anyone with whom you find your gods shall not live. In the presence of our kinsmen point out what I have that is yours, and take it." Now Jacob did not know that Rachel had stolen them.
Genesis 31:32
So Rachel died, and she was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem)...
Genesis 35:19
Was Rachel's untimely death in Genesis 35:19 a direct result of the rash curse that Jacob pronounced on the idol thief in Genesis 31:32? I suspect so. The words of a father and husband have real power in his family. Be careful what you say.
