Genesi 31:39 Commento: Rashi, Rashbam, Sforno & Or HaChaim

טְרֵפָה֙ לֹא־הֵבֵ֣אתִי אֵלֶ֔יךָ אָנֹכִ֣י אֲחַטֶּ֔נָּה מִיָּדִ֖י תְּבַקְשֶׁ֑נָּה גְּנֻֽבְתִ֣י י֔וֹם וּגְנֻֽבְתִ֖י לָֽיְלָה׃

Io non ti recava [a mia giustifica-zione] gli (avanzi degli) animali rapiti [dalle fiere]: io te n’indennizzava, tu gli esigevi da me: rubati fossero di giorno, o rubati di notte.

Rashi on Genesis

טרפה THAT WHICH WAS TORN by a lion or a wolf.

Rashbam on Genesis

אחטפנה, the meaning is that Yaakov would have to pay for the loss from his own pocket. A similar construction occurs in Kings I 1,21. where the line אני ובני שלמה חטאים does not mean “I and my son Shlomoh will be guilty,” but I and my son Shlomoh will have to bear the cost.

Sforno on Genesis

לא הבאתי אליך, אנכי אחטנה, I never brought you a diseased or fatally wounded animal whose death had been due to my negligence; all I ever brought you were animals which were the victims of genuine accidents, something I could not have prevented. Even so, מידי תבקשנה, you held me responsible for making good your loss, illegally, of course.
