Rachel and Leah paints a vivid picture of the intertwined lives of four women - Leah, Laban's oldest daughter, whose "tender eyes" prevent her from fully participating in daily family chores, and Rachel, the spoiled and privileged younger daughter - or so it seems to Leah. There is also Bilhah, an orphan who is not quite a slave, but not really family, either, and Zilpah, who knows how to use her beauty to secure something better than the life of drudgery into which she was born. Into the desert camp a handsome kinsman who is clearly destined to be Rachel's husband but whose presence chanegs the lives of all four women forever.
