57. Marriage Feast

Listen from:
Genesis 29:2222And Laban gathered together all the men of the place, and made a feast. (Genesis 29:22). Laban gathered together all the men of the place and made a feast.
The usual duration of a marriage feast was a week. Thus, “Fulfill her week,” in verse 27, means, “Wait until the week’s festivities are over.” This was the duration of Samson’s marriage feast (Judg. 14:1212And Samson said unto them, I will now put forth a riddle unto you: if ye can certainly declare it me within the seven days of the feast, and find it out, then I will give you thirty sheets and thirty change of garments: (Judges 14:12)).
