After braving isolation, famine, the ire of Pharaoh, and several more years of barrenness, she resorts to her own plan to bring a child into the world involving her maidservant Hagar and Abraham. However, jealousy soon sets in after Hagar gives birth to Ishmael (from whom the prophet Mohammed will descend). Then a miracle happens. Though well past her childbearing years, Sarah and Abraham conceive and have a son of their own, Isaac. Lineage, birthrights, and personal freedom are at odds with long-held grievances and shattered love.<\/p>\n<h4>Rebekah<\/h4>\n<p>After a difficult and painful pregnancy, Rebekah prophetically learns that she will birth twins who will be divided and that the elder will serve the younger. Her sons exist in conflict from the very start, with Jacob literally holding onto his brother Esau&#8217;s heel during birth. While her husband, Isaac, is firm in the right of succession for Esau, Rebekah is equally convinced that Jacob is the most deserving one to be the rightful heir. After watching the boys grow into very different men, she is determined to cajole, manipulate, and even deceive Isaac, now on his deathbed, to ensure that Jacob is the chosen one. By executing the ultimate deception, Rebekah sets the stage for one of history&#8217;s most paramount moments of brother against brother, family destiny, and fulfilled prophecy.<\/p>\n<h4>Leah &amp; Rachel<\/h4>\n<p>Once the best of friends, Leah and her younger sister, Rachel, both yearn for Jacob&#8217;s heart and hand in marriage. But Jacob&#8217;s heart is with Rachel, whose beauty has captivated him. However, on Jacob and Rachel&#8217;s wedding night, her father tricks Jacob and sends Leah into the marriage tent instead of Rachel. So now he is compelled to marry Leah as well, forcing the sisters into a bitter rivalry for Jacob&#8217;s love. While Rachel has his heart, it&#8217;s Leah who presents Jacob with his firstborn son (and many more to follow). Rachel eventually births a son, Joseph, but the pregnancy and delivery nearly kill her. As Jacob, the rivalrous sisters, and their clan return to the promised land of Canaan, Rachel makes the ultimate sacrifice to complete their family. Between them, the sisters bore the famed twelve tribes of Israel, from whom will descend Moses, Joshua, and eventually, two thousand years later, Jesus of Nazareth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Based on The Old Testament, The Faithful Reveals Stories of Family, Love, Jealousy, and Power from the Point of View of The Book of Genesis&#8217;
