God sees that Leah is unloved and blesses her with children, Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah. Highlights God’s intervention in Leah’s life and the beginnings of the tribes of Israel. Jacob agreed to Laban’s conditions, marrying Rachel after Leah and working an additional seven years. Leah, who feels unloved and finds solace in bearing children, believing that each son might win Jacob’s affection.
It reads in Genesis 29: 28-35 Easy: So Jacob did what Laban said. He finished the marriage week with Leah. Then Laban gave Rachel to Jacob to be his wife. Laban gave his female servant Bilhah to Rachel to become her servant. Jacob also slept with Rachel. He loved Rachel more than he loved Leah. He worked for Laban for seven more years. The Lord saw that Jacob did not love Leah. So he let her become pregnant. But Rachel did not give birth to any children. Leah became pregnant and she gave birth to a son. She called him Reuben. She said, ‘It is because the Lord has seen how sad I am. My husband will love me now because I have given birth to a son.’ Leah became pregnant again. She gave birth to another son. She said, ‘The Lord has given me another son because he knows that I am not loved.’ She called this son Simeon. Leah became pregnant again. Later, she gave birth to another son. She said, ‘Now I have given my husband three sons, so he will want to stay with me.’ She called this son Levi. Leah became pregnant again. She gave birth to another son. She said, ‘This time I will praise the Lord.’ She called this son Judah. Then she stopped giving birth to children.
