AnswerIn Genesis chapter 28, Jacob is told that he can not marry any of the local people and must marry one of his uncle, Laban's two daughters, Rachel and Leah. In chapter 29, he meets Rachel and falls in love, but Laban tricks him into marrying Leah, but promises that Jacob can also marry Rachel if he works for Laban for seven years. Jacob loved Rachel more than Leah.
