Day 10Genesis 29

Jacob arrives at his uncle's house and sees them shepherding weirdly. He tried to :Ackshually: but then he stops when he sees a qt3.14 that he wants to make his wife, Rachel. He agrees to work for his uncle for 7 years in exchange for Rachel's hand in marriage, but he ends up getting hornswoggled by his uncle and he marries her older less qt sister, Leah. He gets mad but the uncle insists it's the custom to marry the older sisters before the younger. He agrees to give him Rachel next week if he works for him for another 7 years (oy vey). Maybe that's what he gets for lying to his brother. Leah is unloved but God makes her fertile and blocks Rachel from conceiving. Leah has a son named Reuben which means "Look, a son", then has more children: Simeon, Levi (attach/connect, because she thought after three sons her husband would finally love her), and finally Judah (praise) saying "this time I will praise the Lord".
