 Praise be the God of Leah, the daughter of Laban. Who was unloved and her sister, beloved of Jacob. This is the one who God the Father looked at her and said: this is the one I choose to be the foremother of my beloved Son. The Son of God. The Merciful Lamb and Mighty King. This is the one who will give me praise.
“Once more she conceived and bore a son, and she said, “This time I will give thanks to the Lord”; therefore she named him Judah.” Genesis 29:35 NABRE © 2010. CCD. All rights reserved.
