Leah was Jacob's first wife, the elder daughter of Laban, though Jacob loved her younger sister Rachel and initially worked seven years to marry Rachel instead. Despite this difficult beginning, Leah bore Jacob six sons and a daughter, becoming the mother of Judah and Levi, two of the twelve tribes of Israel. She stands in Scripture as a woman whose unloved position became the means by which God's covenant family grew.
