Leah is one of the most profound biblical examples of overcoming rejection. She was unloved by her husband, Jacob, and lived in the shadow of her more beautiful sister, Rachel. Leah did not overcome rejection because her circumstances suddenly changed or because Jacob finally fell in love with her. Instead, she overcame rejection by shifting her focus away from demanding human validation and placing her identity firmly in YHUH. Her emotional and spiritual journey is beautifully captured in the naming of her children.
Shabbat 7/11/26
