Zilpah Life story
In the Book of Genesis, Zilpah was Leah's handmaid, presumed slave, whom Leah gave to Jacob like a wife to bear him children. Zilpah gave birth to two sons, whom Leah claimed as her own and named Gad and Asher. Zilpah is given to Leah as a handmaid by Leah's father, Laban, upon Leah's marriage to Jacob.
