Bilhah
There are two Bilhah's in the Bible. One is a town in Simeon (1 Chr 4:29). The famous Bilhah is one of four arch-mothers of Israel. She is Rachel's maiden and mother of Dan and Naphtali. Reuben, son of Jacob and Leah, copulates with her, and forfeits his status of first-born (Gen 35:22; 49:3-4). |
balla (247) means trouble and occurs only once, in Ez 4:4.
