    Leah was so young when her sister Rachel was born that she could not remember a time when Rachel was not the darling of the familypretty, clever, and cute, whereas Leah plugged along being obedient, hard-working, and responsible. Then one day a good-looking marriageable kinsman named Jacob showed up, looking for a haven from his brother's rage, and Leah fell in love at once. It didn't surprise her at all that Jacob saw only Rachel. But surely, as the two sisters worked and lived alongside Jacob for seven years, he would come to realize that Leah was the one he ought to marry...

    Leah was known by many as the ignored older sister of the Bible's beautiful Rachel and the apparently unloved wife of the patriarch Jacob. Due to popular belief though, her life was more than a dismal, useless existence. Underneath the short account of her life in the Bible was a woman who dealt with many of the issues women face today, rejection, loneliness and control. This is her story in the form of a novel.

    1 edition published in 2004 in English and held by 1 library worldwide
    "Do you find yourself struggling between wanting to do the right thing and wanting to do your thing? Between pleasing God and pleasing yourself? That's where we find Jacob and Esau, Leah and Rachel and where we'll find answers to the conflicts in our own hearts as well. According to Liz Curtis Higgs, "Jacob and Leah are perfect examples of God blessing the undeserving and loving the unlovable. Their story pours forth a generous dose of grace from a place we don't often expect to find it: among the pages of the Old testament." This is a verse-by-verse study of Genesis 25 and 27-29 as we examine the lives of Jacob and Esau, Leah and Rachel. All seven 30-minute lessons, plus the 3-minute promo spot and the 15-minute preview are on the DVD. Also includes a complete set of audio CDs of all seven lessons. The CDs also include a promo spot, a preview, and camera-ready art and promotional copy to download and personalize." -- publisher's website.
