Clear Vision in a Dark Place: Leah's Untold Legacy

This book is concerned with exposing the life and legacy of the Messianic-Matriarch Leah. Because of the scant paltriness and sparse poverty of the biblical text about the intricacies of Leah's life, her story has easily overlooked, misinterpreted and maligned in the Bible.

Therefore, it is the case and conclusion of this writing that Leah has been given a bad rap, and many have mistakenly succumbed to the unjustified criticism and eisegetically called her ugly. Contrary to this scathing criticism, she is a significant Matriarch, yet comes across as secondary in the eyes of her father, her sister, her husband and even in

history. Nevertheless, she was primary in the mind of God, who saw that she was unloved and opened her womb.

Amidst this dark period of her life, her covenant with God gives her a clear vision of Israel's future. Miraculously she births half of the nation of Israel, most notably the Messianic and priestly tribes.

Wow . . . what an "opened" womb! The "left out" sister gives us a living Savior; the mistreated one gives us the Messiah!

After meticulous exegetical analysis and investigation presented in this book, I am confident that the reader will endorse and support the Biblical significance of Leah and that she emerges as the most noteworthy Matriarch and is superior to the other Matriarchs in piety, character and temperament.
