Jacob came to his Uncle Laban's house. He met Laban's daughter Rachel and loved her right away.
Jacob worked seven years so he could marry Rachel. It felt like just a few days because he loved her so much!
But on the wedding day, Laban tricked Jacob and gave him Rachel's sister Leah instead. Now Jacob knew how it felt to be tricked.
