-Yackov and Lavan made a treaty by Galed that neither would cross at that point with the intent of harming the other.
- This treaty was broken by Bilam who was a descendent of Lavan. It was also broken by Kushan Rishasaim who invaded our country during the time of Asneal ben Kenoz. He was the king of Aram.
- In addition it is known to the Kabbalists that Bilam and Kushon were reincarnations of Lavan himself.
- That is why Dovid was able to battle the land of Aram for the treaty was already broken.
