jacob
in the third reading (, "aliyah"), jacob loved rachel and, responding to laban's enquiry in verse 15, offered to serve laban seven years for rachel's hand, to which laban agreed. jacob served the years, but his love for rachel made them seem like just a few days. jacob asked laban for his wife, and laban made a feast and invited all the men of the place. in the evening, laban brought leah to jacob, and jacob slept with her. laban gave leah zilpah to be her handmaid. in the morning, jacob discovered that it was leah, and he complained to laban that he had served for rachel. laban replied that in that place, they did not give the younger before the firstborn, but if jacob fulfilled leah's week, he would give jacob both daughters in exchange for another seven years of service. jacob did so, and laban gave him rachel to wife, and gave rachel bilhah to be her handmaid. jacob loved rachel more than leah, so god allowed leah to conceive, but rachel was barren. leah bore a son, and called him reuben, saying that god had looked upon her affliction. she bore a second son, and called him simeon, saying that god had heard that she was hated. she bore a third son, and called him levi, saying that this time her husband would be joined to her. she bore a fourth son, and called him judah, saying that this time, she would praise god. rachel envied her sister, and demanded that jacob give her children, but jacob grew angry and asked her whether he was in god's stead, who had withheld children from her. rachel told jacob to sleep with her maid bilhah, so that bilhah might bear children upon rachel's knees who might be credited to rachel, and he did. bilhah bore jacob a son, and rachel called him dan, saying that god had judged her and also heard her voice. and bilhah bore jacob a second son, and rachel called him naphtali, saying that she had wrestled with her sister and prevailed. when leah saw that she had stopped bearing, she gave jacob her maid zilpah to wife. zilpah bore jacob a son, and leah called him gad, saying that fortune had come. and zilpah bore jacob a second son, and leah called him asher, saying that she was happy, for the daughters would call her happy. the third reading (, "aliyah") ends here.
