These were the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel. He was the firstborn, but his birthright was given to the sons of Joseph son of Israel, because Reuben defiled his father’s bed.

Abraham’s sons: Isaac and Ishmael.

Joshua said to all the people,“ This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, says:‘ Long ago your ancestors, including Terah, the father of Abraham and Nahor, lived beyond the Euphrates River and worshiped other gods.But I took your father Abraham from the region beyond the Euphrates River, led him throughout the land of Canaan, and multiplied his descendants. I gave him Isaac,and to Isaac I gave Jacob and Esau. I gave the hill country of Seir to Esau as a possession.“‘ Jacob and his sons, however, went down to Egypt.

By faith even Sarah herself, when she was unable to have children, received power to conceive offspring, even though she was past the age, since she considered that the one who had promised was faithful.

Look to Abraham your father, and to Sarah who gave birth to you. When I called him, he was only one; I blessed him and made him many.

Judah, your brothers will praise you. Your hand will be on the necks of your enemies; your father’s sons will bow down to you.Judah is a young lion— my son, you return from the kill. He crouches; he lies down like a lion or a lioness— who dares to rouse him?The scepter will not depart from Judah or the staff from between his feet until he whose right it is comes and the obedience of the peoples belongs to him.He ties his donkey to a vine, and the colt of his donkey to the choice vine. He washes his clothes in wine and his robes in the blood of grapes.His eyes are darker than wine, and his teeth are whiter than milk.

When he brought them to his mother Leah, Rachel asked,“ Please give me some of your son’s mandrakes.”But Leah replied to her,“ Isn’t it enough that you have taken my husband? Now you also want to take my son’s mandrakes?”“ Well then,” Rachel said,“ he can sleep with you tonight in exchange for your son’s mandrakes.”When Jacob came in from the field that evening, Leah went out to meet him and said,“ You must come with me, for I have hired you with my son’s mandrakes.” So Jacob slept with her that night.God listened to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son.Leah said,“ God has rewarded me for giving my slave to my husband,” and she named him Issachar.Then Leah conceived again and bore Jacob a sixth son.“ God has given me a good gift,” Leah said.“ This time my husband will honor me because I have borne six sons for him,” and she named him Zebulun.

They set out from Bethel. When they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth, and her labor was difficult.During her difficult labor, the midwife said to her,“ Don’t be afraid, for you have another son.”With her last breath— for she was dying— she named him Ben-oni, but his father called him Benjamin.So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath( that is, Bethlehem).

Neither is it the case that all of Abraham’s children are his descendants. On the contrary, your offspring will be traced through Isaac.That is, it is not the children by physical descent who are God’s children, but the children of the promise are considered to be the offspring.For this is the statement of the promise: At this time I will come, and Sarah will have a son.And not only that, but Rebekah conceived children through one man, our father Isaac.For though her sons had not been born yet or done anything good or bad, so that God’s purpose according to election might stand—not from works but from the one who calls— she was told, The older will serve the younger.As it is written: I have loved Jacob, but I have hated Esau.

“ I have loved you,” says the LORD. Yet you ask,“ How have you loved us?”“ Wasn’t Esau Jacob’s brother?” This is the LORD’s declaration.“ Even so, I loved Jacob,but I hated Esau. I turned his mountains into a wasteland, and gave his inheritance to the desert jackals.”
