Thematic Bible: Mother of dan and naphtali


Thematic Bible



And Rachel saw she had borne no children unto Jacob, so Rachel became envious of her sister, - and said unto Jacob, Come! give me children, or else, I die. Then kindled the anger of Jacob with Rachel, - and he said, Am I, in the place of God, who hath withheld from thee the fruit of the womb? And she said, Lo! my handmaid, Bilhah. Go in unto her, - that she may hear upon my knees, so that, I also, may be builded up by her! read more.
And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid, to wife, - and Jacob went in unto her; and Bilhah conceived, and bare unto Jacob a son; and Rachel said God hath vindicated me. Moreover also he hath hearkened unto my voice, and hath given me a son. For this cause, called she his name Dan. And Bilhah, Rachel's handmaid conceived again, and bare a second son to Jacob. Then said Rachel With wrestlings of God, have I wrestled with my sister Yea I have prevailed. So she called his name, Naphtali.

And the sons of Bilhah, handmaid of Rachel, Dan, and Naphtali:

And, the sons of Dan, - Hushim; And the sons of Naphtali, - Jahzeel and Guni, and Jezer and Shillem. These, are the sons of Bilhah, whom Laban gave to Rachel his daughter, - so she bare these to Jacob, - all the souls, were seven.
