Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

The sad figure of Leah is explored in this brief passage. Even though she not loved by her husband, she has four sons in a row with him. Even to this day, there are people who think that having a baby will somehow heal a troubled marriage, and Leah's choice for the boy's names reflects that very thing. It is interesting that Jacob doesn't even seem to participate in the naming of Leah's children. We know, in retrospect, that the Tribe of Judah will produce the line that bears King David, King Solomon, and, eventually, Jesus of Nazareth.
When the Kingdoms split apart after Solomon, it is the Tribe of Judah that stays in Jerusalem, (and has a slightly better crop of kings), and it is from Judah that the Jewish People get their name.
It is Leah who is buried with Jacob in the Cave of Machpelah.
Although she was not loved by her husband (nor her younger sister!), she was definitely loved by God.
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
Blessings To All Who Visit This Garden of Prayer.
