Lesson_51_Jacobs_First_Sons

Jacob was tricked into marrying Leah, and he made no secret of the fact that he did not love her. Leah lived in

the agonizing shadow of her beautiful sister, Rachel. But God always pays attention to the brokenhearted.

Genesis 29:31 says, 'When the Lord saw that Leah was not loved, he enabled her to conceive.' God gave her

four sons in rapid succession: Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah. Today we will explore how God comforts the

rejected, the powerful meaning behind these four names, and the incredible shift in Leah's heart when she

finally stops seeking her husband's approval and decides to praise God instead.
