In Genesis 37:14, Jacob sends Joseph to check on his brothers and the flock — echoing this scene of locating family among sheep.

In Genesis 43:27, Joseph inquires about his father Jacob's wellbeing — mirroring Jacob's own inquiry about Laban's welfare here.

In Exodus 2:16, Jethro's seven daughters come to water their father's flock at a well — the same pastoral scene of women tending family sheep.

In 2 Kings 4:26, the servant asks the Shunammite 'Is it well with thee?' — nearly identical phrasing to Jacob's inquiry about Laban.

In 2 Samuel 20:9, Joab asks Amasa 'Art thou in health?' — the same greeting formula as Jacob's inquiry, though Joab's intent is treacherous.

In Exodus 18:7, Moses and Jethro exchange greetings of welfare upon meeting — the same cultural courtesy Jacob shows by asking 'Is he well?' about Laban.
