  1. (28:10-22) Jacob flees Esau to Haran. He dreams of a ladder between heaven and earth with angels going up and down. Jacob names the place Bethel, ”House of God.”
  2. (29:1-30) Jacob meets Rachel. Jacob agrees to work for Laban, her father, for 7 years in exchange for marrying her, but Laban tricks him into marrying her sister, Leah. Jacob is forced to work another seven years for Rachel.
  3. (29:31-35) Leah gives birth to 4 sons — Reuben, Simon, Levi and Judah — but Rachel is barren.
  4. (30:1-13) Rachel gives Jacob her maid Bilhah, who bears him two sons—Dan and Naphtali—whom Rachel adopts as her own. Leah does the same with her maid Zilpah, who bears Gad and Asher.
