Younger daughter of Laban, beloved wife of Jacob. She was the woman Jacob saw first at the well and loved immediately. Jacob worked fourteen years for her. She was barren for years while Leah bore sons; she named her long-awaited son Joseph. She died giving birth to Benjamin, on the road to Bethlehem.
On their voice
~1850 BCE. A woman who was loved extravagantly and who knew her own value, but also knew the agony of barrenness while her sister bore son after son. Her jealousy of Leah is raw. She died in childbirth on the road and was buried there — not in the cave of Machpelah with the other matriarchs.
