SEV Biblia, Chapter 30:16
Y cuando Jacob volvía del campo a la tarde, salió Lea a él, y le dijo: A mí has de entrar, porque a la verdad te he alquilado por las mandrágoras de mi hijo. Y durmió con ella aquella noche.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Genesis 30:16
Verse 16. I have hired thee] We may remark among the Jewish women an intense desire of having children; and it seems to have been produced, not from any peculiar affection for children, but through the hope of having a share in the blessing of Abraham, by bringing forth Him in whom all the nations of the earth were to be blessed.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 14-24 - The desire, good in itself, but often too great and irregular, of being the mother of the promised Seed, with the honour of having man children, and the reproach of being barren, were causes of thi unbecoming contest between the sisters. The truth appears to be, tha they were influenced by the promises of God to Abraham; whose posterit were promised the richest blessings, and from whom the Messiah was to descend.
