Ruben lost his birthright as the firstborn son because he defiled his father's bed by sleeping with one of his father's concubines, which was considered a serious offense in their cultural and religious beliefs. This act was seen as dishonorable and disrespectful, leading to the loss of his right to inherit the privileges that typically came with being the eldest son.
