When Jacob went out to meet Esau, he divided his family, flocks, herds and camels into two bands. Why?

  • He didn't want Esau to be overly impressed with his possessions.
  • He was afraid Esau would attack them.
  • Some of the family were sick, and he separated them.
  • The camels were giving birth to young at the time.

You are correct!

Genesis 32:7-8

7 In great fear and distress Jacob divided the people who were with him into two groups, and the flocks and herds and camels as well. 8 He thought, “If Esau comes and attacks one group, the group that is left may escape.”
