4026. 'And did not put them near Laban's flock' means total separation from the good meant by Laban. This is clear from what has just been stated, and so is clear without any further explanation. For Divine goods and truths were separated completely from goods and truths which derive anything from what is human, for they transcend them and become infinite.
