Raw Blame History

Rachel

Facts:

Rachel was one of Jacob's wives. She and her sister Leah were the daughters of Laban, Jacob's uncle.

Rachel was the mother of Joseph and Benjamin, whose descendants became two of the tribes of Israel.
For many years, Rachel was not able to have any children. Then God enabled her to give birth to Joseph.
Years later, as she gave birth to Benjamin, Rachel died, and Jacob buried her near Bethlehem.
