Rachel in Genesis 30
RAY-chul
This person shows up in Genesis 30:1: “When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister. She said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I will die.”” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real person in a real place.
Genesis 30:1
“When Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister. She said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I will die.””
