Read Genesis 29:14-30 (Jacob marries Leah & Rachel)

Has anyone ever played a mean trick on you? You on someone else?

How did Laban manipulate Jacob's words in 29:21?

How could Jacob have not realized with whom he was sleeping? (29:22) (Compare 24:65 and note that this night was preceded by a week-long feast)

How is Jacob's being deceived in 29:25 ironic?

What would you have been willing to do to marry your spouse? 14 years as an agricultural slave?

Would you be willing to work that hard to keep your spouse once you're married?

Why did Jacob keep Leah as a wife?

How do you think Leah might have felt here?

Does God condone polygamy? How did it work out for Jacob? (Remember Sarah and Hagar?)

From whom does Jesus descend? (29:35)

How do we see the love of Jesus in the actions of Jacob?
