Older daughter of Laban, first wife of Jacob through her father's deception. She was unloved by Jacob but bore him six sons and one daughter. The names she gave her sons trace an arc from desperate longing for her husband's love to something harder and more durable. She was the mother of Judah, the line of David and of the Messiah.
