Rachel and Benjamin
Return to Bethel · Genesis 35
Story guide: Rachel dies giving birth to Benjamin on the road to Ephrath, and Jacob sets a pillar over her grave.
Open this scene in the reader →16Then they journeyed from Bethel, and when there was still some distance to go before reaching Ephrath, Rachel gave birth, and she had difficulty in childbirth.
17And when her labor was hard, the midwife said to her, “Do not fear, for this also is a son for you.”
18And as her life was departing—for she was dying—she called his name Ben-oni; but his father called him Benjamin.
19So Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem).
20And Jacob set up a pillar over her grave. It is the pillar of Rachel’s grave to this day.
21Then Israel journeyed on and pitched his tent beyond Migdal-eder.
