Parsha Vayetzei – Chapter 30 – Verse 22-25
Hashem turned nature upside down and finally Rachel becomes pregnant! Rachel bore a son and said, Hashem has gathered my shame, I don’t have to be embarrassed anymore, so she calls him Yosef. Yosef means “add on” – please add onto me another child. She was already davening for another child. Suddenly after 22 years in Lavan’s house, after Rachel gave birth to Yosef , Yaacov says it is time to go. He wants to go back to land of his people, his parents in the land of Canaan.
