This week, Jordan and Mary Kate discuss the relationship of Jacob, Rachel, and Leah. Is this a story of love at first sight? Who is said to love in this story? What is the role of "love"? Is "love" even the right word? Join us as we discuss some common modern interpretations of Genesis 29 and their problems.
