Bible Question (short): Gen 38 and Racheal and Leah's lineage |
Question (full): OK, I have a few questions. First of all, was Laban, Leah and Rachel's father, a Caananite? Does the Bible mention who Leah and Rachel's mother was or if they had the same mothers? If they had the same mother or not, was their mother/mothers a Caananite? Also do you have any insight on Gen. 38:27-30. What the symbolism in it? I know Perez is part of the lineage of Christ but I don't get the symbolism of Zerah's hand coming out first and the scarlet thread around his wrist and then Perez "breaking out". Thanks and God bless! |
