women of the Bible: Leah by ric Gustafson
Jacob had agreed to work for Laban for seven years. He did this in return of marrying his daughter Rachel. Instead it was his daughter Leah. Jacob wanted Rachel. He agreed to work seven more years for her. Everyone thought that Rachel was barren.
Leah bore six sons and one daughter for Jacob. Leah's third son was Levi thus came Israel's line of priests. From Leah's fourth son Judah's line came Jesus the Messiah.
Leah was favored in God's eyes. We are also.
