Biblical Parallels Index – Bereshit 29
Favored and Unfavored Wives
- Makbilot Bamikra points out that the notion of a preferred (אהובה, lit. beloved) and less preferred (שנואה, lit. hated) wife appears, in a legal context, in Devarim 21:15-17. The parallel raises the question of how to understand Bereshit 29:30-31's description of Rachel as "beloved" and Leah as "hated". Was Leah actually hated or more simply less favored than Rachel?
