Context Reading
17Leah’s eyes were weak, but Rachel was beautiful in form and attractive. 18Jacob loved Rachel. He said, “I will serve you seven years for Rachel, your younger daughter.” 19Laban said, “It is better that I give her to you, than that I should give her to another man. Stay with me.” 20Jacob served seven years for Rachel. They seemed to him but a few days, for the love he had for her. 21Jacob said to Laban, “Give me my wife, for my days are fulfilled, that I may go in to her.”
