Génesis 30:23 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 30:23

And she conceived and bare a son
Through the goodness of God unto her, and for which she was greatly thankful; and said, God hath taken away my reproach;
the reproach of barrenness with which she was reproached among her neighbours; and perhaps by her sister Leah, and indeed it was a general reproach in those times; and especially, it was the more grievous to good women in the family of Abraham, because they were not the means of multiplying his seed according to the promise, and could have no hope of the Messiah springing from them.

Génesis 30:23 In-Context

22 Y acordóse Dios de Rachêl, y oyóla Dios, y abrió su matriz.
23 Y concibió, y parió un hijo: y dijo: Quitado ha Dios mi afrenta:
24 Y llamó su nombre José, diciendo: Añádame Jehová otro hijo.
25 Y aconteció, cuando Rachêl hubo parido á José, que Jacob dijo á Labán: Envíame, é iré á mi lugar, y á mi tierra.
