Rachel is barren so she gives her maid, Bilhah, to Jacob to have children.
Bilhah bore two sons by Jacob.
Leah became barren and gave Jacob her maid, Zilpah.
Leah sells her son's mandrakes and lays with Jacob and conceives a son, Issachar.
Leah also had Zebulun and Dinah, a daughter.
God remembers Rachel and she bears a son, Joseph.
Jacob asks to leave Laban because he has finished serving him.
Laban does not want Jacob to leave.
Genesis 31
Laban begins to despise Jacob, so the Lord tells him to return to the land of his fathers.
All of Laban's sheep began to have speckled, streaked, and gray-spotted which inturn became Jacob's.
Jacob flees and Laban follows. Laban catches up to Jacob and questions him.
Jacob says how he worked 14 years for Laban's daughters and 6 years for his flock.
Jacob and Laban make a covenant.
