One of the experiences of Jacob with Laban in Haran was that he worked for seven years
to pay for his sins
to save enough money for his own personal business
to develop his muscles
to show his loyaltyto his kind uncle Laban
to enable him marry Rachel
Explanation
In Genesis 29:18-20 (RSV), Jacob worked for seven years for Laban in exchange for the right to marry his daughter Rachel, whom he loved. However, Laban deceived him by giving him Leah, Rachel's older sister, instead, and Jacob had to work another seven years to marry Rachel.
