Listen "319. Genesis 29: Why Did God Favor Leah?"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of The Bible Show, Sam and Will delve into Genesis 29, exploring Jacob's journey to Laban's household and the poetic justice he experiences as the deceiver gets deceived. This chapter highlights the chaotic consequences of seeking identity and worth in anything other than God's love, as seen through both Jacob and Leah. The discussion covers Jacob's arrival at the well, a symbolic meeting place for brides in the Old Testament, and his immediate, impulsive attraction to Rachel. The hosts also examine the symbolism of Jacob rolling away the stone from the well, foreshadowing a greater act of life-giving by Jesus.
