After receiving a visitation by God in a dream, Jacob's spirit is revived and he journeys onward to Haran. When he arrives, he meets some shepherds at a well who tell him that Rachel, his uncle's daughter, is headed to the same place. He introduces himself to Rachel; and she thereby introduces Jacob to her father Laban. Laban welcomes Jacob. After working for him for a short period, Jacob contracts with Laban to marry his younger daughter Rachel. Laban deceives Jacob and gives him the eldest daughter Leah. Jacob then has to negotiate once again a bridal price for Rachel. But, all is not well in his household. Leah is unloved. So, God favors her because Jacob does not and gives her four sons.
