📚 Contexto Histórico
In the book of Genesis, Jacob was married to two sisters, Leah and Rachel, who were in a rivalry for his affection and the status that came from bearing children. Leah had already given birth to several children but had stopped, leading her to give her maidservant Zilpah to Jacob as a wife, mirroring Rachel's earlier action with her own maid. This practice was rooted in ancient Near Eastern customs where women in patriarchal societies used surrogates to secure their family legacy and fulfill social expectations.
