GENESIS 28-29:
After what Jacob did to Esau, with Esau holding a big grudge, it is time for Jacob to get out of town.

JOB 16:
Eliphaz said that Job was showing no reverence for God, that his own words condemned him. His rhetorical questions all imply that Job is being proud and guilty of sin. Eliphaz maintained that no mortal can be pure.

MARK 10a:
In yesterday's reading Jesus predicted his death, spoke about who is greatest in God's kingdom, and talked about the seriousness of sin.

NLT Translation notes:
Gen 29:8 “We can’t water the animals until all the flocks have arrived,” they replied. “Then [we/the] shepherds move the stone from the mouth of the well, and we water all the sheep and goats.”
9 Jacob was still talking with them when Rachel arrived with her father’s flock, for she was a shepherd[ess].
