🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem 🇮🇱(2/26/26)[Prayer]





A New Study For A New Year: Personalities

Genesis 29:32-35

32 And Leah conceived, and bare a son, and she called his name Reuben: for she said, Surely the Lord hath looked upon my affliction; now therefore my husband will love me.

33 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and said, Because the Lord hath heard I was hated, he hath therefore given me this son also: and she called his name Simeon.

34 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and said, Now this time will my husband be joined unto me, because I have born him three sons: therefore was his name called Levi.

35 And she conceived again, and bare a son: and she said, Now will I praise the Lord: therefore she called his name Judah; and left bearing.

The King James Version

Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem




Abba Father,
How Awesome You Are!
You Alone Are LORD,
You Alone Are The Most High!
You Alone Are The One True God.
You Are The King of Kings,
LORD of Lords,
and Rock of All Ages,
Our Creator,
You Are Before All Things,
And In You All Things Hold Together.
We Come Before You in Silent Awe,
You, The Master of The Universe,
And The Creator of the Quantum World of the Atom.
All the other "gods" of this world are false.
Keep us from Temptation, Dear Father,
That we will not worship Your creation rather than You!

Let all that has been Concealed
Be Revealed.

Father, We Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem,
According To Your Will and Promise.
We Pray That You Will Forgive The Sins
of Our Own Nation,
and Lead us all to Godly Repentance.
Create in Us Clean Hearts, Oh LORD,
and Renew a Right Spirit Within Us.

This we Pray Together,
As We Await Your Messiah,
Blessed Be He,
To Set Up His Kingdom,
And Make All Things Right.



”The Greatest Of these Is Love.”

If Laban thought he was doing any favors for his eldest daughter Leah, he was sadly mistaken. Instead, his deception doomed her to a loveless marriage, and in constant competition with her younger sister. (Centuries later, the Law of Moses would prohibit such arrangements, along with many other Marriage Laws). While the two sisters may have had a lovely relationship before, this situation made them bitter rivals.

Poor Leah! She thought that if she kept having babies, Jacob would eventually love her. Even the names she chose for her sons reflect her desperation. She has four boys in a row, Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah. The names of each boy describe Leah's sad journey of desperation and struggle.

Since she was having babies left and right, it's obvious that she and Jacob had Marital Relations. But there was no love. This illustrates a remarkable sensitivity, even of a Nomadic,Tribal, Patriarchal Culture that there IS a DIFFERENCE. Sex without Love is empty and unfulfilling. Leah was performing her duties as a wife, but knew the difference.

Meanwhile, Rachel was getting plenty of both, and not producing any offspring. This didn't seem to bother Jacob, but it bothered Rachel. Her sister Leah was doing something she couldn't. And that made her jealous. She started to take it out on her husband, who, I'm sure, was doing HIS part of the deal, so what was her problem?

This "Baby Contest" would continue for years. (I can't even imagine!). It made both women miserable, and, in the coming Chapters we will see both ladies engage in subterfuge, herbal remedies, superstition, stealing idols, and even a bit of "witchcraft" to get what they want.

Yesterday, one of our Friends remarked on the thread that she felt sorry for Leah. I do too, but God eventually works this out. Leah is buried in the Tomb of the Patriarchs, the Cave of Machpeliah, in Hebron. She is buried with Jacob, her husband. She is considered the Mother of (most ) of the Twelve Tribes.

Rachel, the mother of Joseph and Benjamin, is buried in a little tomb outside of Bethlehem, where she died while on a Journey with her husband.

Ironically, Rachel died giving birth to Benjamin.

Benjamin's name was modified by Jacob after Rachel's death, because the name she gave her newborn meant "Son of my Sorrow".

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Amen to your prayer and word. I have trouble enough with one wife, probably because of me.

Funny! It’s always a two-edged sword, FRiend. 😇
