About This Book
They chose to marry the same man, now they are locked in marriage with each other for life, for better and for worse. Two sisters: Leah and Rachel both wanted a part of Israel, the man of God, Israel the nation, and Israel the state of mind.
They wanted to be part of Israel, and they got there, but only after they left the cheating ways in which they were raised.
They faced adversity and trouble of their own making, before they became mighty women, which was when they answered Israel and said:
Now then, whatsoever God hath said unto thee, do.(Gen: 31-16)
It was only then, that Israel: the man, the nation, and the state of mind rose up (Gen: 31-17) and was met by the angels of God on his way (Gen: 32: 1).
Leah and Rachel, they became the Matriarchs of Israel by choice.
