Και υπηγεν ο Ρουβην εν ταις ημεραις του θερισμου του σιτου και ευρηκε μανδραγορας εν τω αγρω, και εφερεν αυτους προς την Λειαν την μητερα αυτου. Ειπε δε η Ραχηλ προς την Λειαν, Δος μοι, παρακαλω, απο τους μανδραγορας του υιου σου.

3953. Verses 17-18 And God hearkened to Leah, and she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son. And Leah said, God has given me my reward, because I gave my servant-girl to my husband. And she called his name Issachar.
'God hearkened to Leah' means Divine love. 'And she conceived and bore Jacob a fifth son' means reception and acknowledgement. 'And Leah said, God has given me my reward, because I gave my servant-girl to my husband' in the highest sense means Divine Good wedded to Truth, and Truth wedded to Good; in the internal sense heavenly conjugial love; and in the external sense mutual love. 'And she called his name Issachar' means the essential nature of it.
