Did God Bless Jacobs Marriages?
Manage episode 483903282 series 3490188
In this episode, we explore Jacob's chaotic and emotionally charged family life as told in Genesis 30. With Leah, Rachel, Bilhah, and Zilpah all competing for his affection and for children, we explore whether God’s blessing of offspring means He approved of the means.
Was this family structure God’s design, or a result of human rivalry and desperation? We unpack the birth of the twelve sons who would become the tribes of Israel, the use of mandrakes and servant surrogates, and the tension between divine providence and human striving.
Join us as we wrestle with Jacob’s household's messiness and consider how God works through broken relationships to fulfill His promises.
