Gênesis 30:16 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 30:16

And Jacob came out of the field in the evening
From feeding his flocks; and Leah went out to meet him;
knowing full well the time he used to come home: and said, thou must come in unto me;
into her tent, for the women had separate tents from the men; as Sarah from Abraham; and so these wives of Jacob had not only tents separate from his, but from one another: for surely I have hired thee with my son's mandrakes:
that is, she had hired that night's lodging with him of Rachel, with the mandrakes her son Reuben had brought out of the field. Jacob made no objection to it; but consented, being willing to please both his wives, who he perceived had made this agreement between themselves: and he lay with her that night;
and that only, for the present: for, by the way of speaking, it looks as if he did not continue with her more nights together at that time, but went, as before that evening, to Rachel's tent.

Gênesis 30:16 In-Context

14 Ora, saiu Rúben nos dias da ceifa do trigo e achou mandrágoras no campo, e as trouxe a Léia, sua mãe. Então disse Raquel a Léia: Dá-me, peço, das mandrágoras de teu filho.

15 Ao que lhe respondeu Léia: É já pouco que me hajas tirado meu marido? queres tirar também as mandrágoras de meu filho? Prosseguiu Raquel: Por isso ele se deitará contigo esta noite pelas mandrágoras de teu filho.

16 Quando, pois, Jacó veio � tarde do campo, saiu-lhe Léia ao encontro e disse: Hás de estar comigo, porque certamente te aluguei pelas mandrágoras de meu filho. E com ela deitou-se Jacó aquela noite.

17 E ouviu Deus a Léia, e ela concebeu e deu a Jacó um quinto filho.

18 Então disse Léia: Deus me tem dado o meu galardão, porquanto dei minha serva a meu marido. E chamou ao filho Issacar.
