Genesis 49:27."Benjamin.(younger son of Jacob by Rachel; more interesting stuff on Benjamin).shall ravin.(tear, rip, shread).as a wolf. In the morning he shall devour the prey and at night he shall divide the spoil."
Genesis 49:28."All these are the twelve tribes of Israel and this is it that their father spake unto them and blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them."

-Bilhah:.Genesis 30:1-8 "And when Rachel saw that she bare Jacob no children, Rachel envied her sister and said unto Jacob, Give me children or else I die. And Jacob's anger was kindled against Rachel. And he said, Am I in God's stead, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb? And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her and she shall bear upon my knees, that I may also have children by her. And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife. And Jacob went in unto her. And Bilhah conceived and bare Jacob a son. And Rachel said, God has judged me and has also heard my voice and has given me a son; therefore called she his name Dan. And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again and bare Jacob a second son. And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister and I have prevailed. And she called his name Naphtali."

-Rachel:.Genesis 30:22-24 "And God remembered Rachel and God hearkened to her and opened her womb. And she conceived and bare a son and said, God has taken away my reproach. And she called his name Joseph and said, The Lord shall add to me another son."
Love hungry Rachel, the one Jacob wanted, the beautiful younger daughter of Laban, became one of Jacob's wives. As Rachel and Jacob journeyed from Bethel, Rachel died in giving birth to Benjamin and was buried in the way to Ephrath, which is Bethlehem. Jacob set a pillar upon her grave:.Genesis 35:18,19. Her sepulchre.(burial vault).is still regarded with great veneration by the Jews. Its traditional site is about half a mile from Jerusalem.

-Zilpah:.Genesis 30:9-13 "When Leah saw that she had left bearing, she took Zilpah her maid and gave her Jacob to wife. And Zilpah, Leah's maid bare Jacob a son. And Leah said, A troop cometh and she called his name Gad. And Zilpah Leah's maid bare Jacob a second son. And Leah said, Happy am I, for the daughters will call me blessed. And she called his name Asher."
