As I s...Myss Lafunky, thank you for your response.<br /><br />As I said, the last line of paragraph 10 - "...simply because she wanted a man's heart".<br /><br />I understand the desire of a husband's heart as a wife's topmost desire as pointed out in Gen. 3:16.<br />Bernardonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490676943414191920.post-59869248912088556722013-04-30T21:07:01.964+01:002013-04-30T21:07:01.964+01:00Thank you Bernado for your comment.
"Leah wo...Thank you Bernado for your comment.<br /><br />"Leah would only sell the mandrakes to her sister for her night in their husband’s bed. Now, that was harsh- even disgusting! One cannot but wonder what was going through Leah’s mind in all this". <br /><br />"It’s easy to want to be sympathetic with her, we all know many a woman who has been subjected to a life of emptiness and depression because their husbands did not give them the love they deserved, but come on, how low could she sink, simply because she wanted a man’s heart?"<br /><br />The above is paragraph 10, what don't you agree with? What is your view?<br /><br />What are you saving for no 2? Feel free to offer your comment.<br />Once you have offered your comments, I will endeavour to respond.Mysses Lafunkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07860573756184786018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490676943414191920.post-5315962986205370562013-04-30T20:58:42.360+01:002013-04-30T20:58:42.360+01:00Thank you Ife.

"...simply because"?<br /><br />I agree with virtually all of Funke's summary as well, save for number 2 (which is linked to my first paragraph).<br />Bernardonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4490676943414191920.post-87312541835476560732013-04-29T19:52:10.413+01:002013-04-29T19:52:10.413+01:00Wow! so well written.

My learning/summary from t...Thank you for sharing.<br /><br />My learning/summary from the above post:<br /><br />1)Know what you want in life, once you know it, be zealous and go after your desire.<br /><br />2)Have the desire for things that are right and meaningful, do not waste your energy chasing the wrong things.<br /><br />3)Focusing solely on one’s husband and neglecting the children may lead to the children feeling unloved.<br /><br />4)At that time that the event took place, it was common for a man to have more than one wife.<br /><br />5)It’s strange for two sisters to have married one man; I can imagine the contention, envy, jealousy, rivalry with Leah and Rebecca. <br /><br />6)When the Lord saw that Leah was hated, He favoured her, Leah had children for Jacob while Rebecca was unable to conceive.<br /><br />In other words, ALL things work together for those that love the Lord. Also, when our ways please the Lord, God would favour us.<br /><br />7)Perhaps Jacob did not love Leah because he felt cheated by Leah and her dad, I’m not certain as to why Leah consented to have married Jacob. <br /><br />8)It must have been difficult for Leah to have married Jacob who did not love her at all, and who did not choose her. <br /><br />I’m still shocked that, they made love to have children despite that Jacob did not love Leah.<br /><br />This is a reminder for singles not to chase after a man or a woman that does not love you; you may end up in misery. Particularly, a lady must not be chasing after a man that does not love her. <br /><br />9)Leah had to find happiness in the children that she gave birth to, given that, her husband did not love her. Leah was never loved by Jacob despite her patience with him and despite giving birth. Such a shame!!<br />Mysses Lafunkyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07860573756184786018noreply@blogger.com
