00:10I'm here looking for my uncle, Laban.
00:12He's my father.
00:13Cousin!
00:13Previously on The Faithful.
00:15An eligible bachelor.
00:17What a man. I love him.
00:19You take my daughter's hand in marriage.
00:21Will you marry me?
00:22Rachel.
00:23You've broken my heart.
00:25You cannot love him like I do.
00:27Perhaps there's a way to keep them here for another seven years.
00:30She did this to trap me.
00:32In the eyes of the world, Leia and I are married.
00:34I swear you won't treat her as your real wife.
00:36It would just be you and me.
00:37Jacob, we're going to have a son.
01:04I know.
01:05I know.
01:07The baby is the fruit of your sister's deception, but here we are.
01:10No, no.
01:11It's not the babe's fault.
01:13I shall still be a loving aunt.
01:19That's my son.
01:21A hearty arrival into this world.
01:24If you're staying away from me, you don't have to.
01:26This is important.
01:29You're certain?
01:29Yes.
01:31Go be a father.
01:47His name's Reuben.
01:51Reuben.
01:56Reuben.
02:03It's the happiest day of my life.
02:21It's the happiest day of my life.
02:23Jacob promised Rachel that nothing would alter their love.
02:26or life together.
02:28You'd be good for your mother.
02:29But my life was realized the moment our child was born.
02:34My dreams came into focus.
02:38As hers began to fade, I felt her pain.
02:58Hour by hour, day by day, Jacob and I spun towards one another until we were one.
03:21Lord, bless my son, Reuben, on his first birthday.
03:27Make him strong to live a life in your service.
03:52Oh, girl.
04:02Oh, what a talent, eh?
04:07What are you making?
04:08A toy for Reuben.
04:10Aw, that's most kind, sister.
04:12Well, it must be hard to see Jacob and Leia's closeness.
04:16Yes, they are looking quite happy with them, aren't they?
04:18I've hardly noticed.
04:20Besides, they have a child together.
04:21It's impossible for them to not share a closeness,
04:24but it's me, Jacob loves.
04:26It's my turn to spend his nights.
04:28She's getting rather testy.
04:30Perhaps her monthly friend is visiting.
04:32Move away. Move away!
04:37Oh, here.
04:38I call upon my household gods
04:40to bless my beautiful grandchild.
04:45And I bought one for you
04:47to place upon your hearth.
04:50Um, Reuben has been blessed already.
04:53by Jacob's God, the Lord himself.
04:56Your daughter understands.
04:58My God is very important to me.
05:01Our God.
05:03I believe in him, too.
05:06Yeah.
05:07Yes.
05:08Our God.
05:10And my descendants shall continue in our faith.
05:17These are so gods who handed down to me
05:19from my father
05:20to his father before that.
05:22Please don't take offense.
05:24I know you mean well.
05:33How can I take offense
05:34when you have given me
05:36the most perfect grant?
05:40He has brought so much joy
05:42to my life.
05:47Clever, Reuben.
05:49You'll be playing with us next.
05:57Good boy.
05:58You won't be gone too long?
06:01Uh, only a few weeks.
06:03That's how I imagine.
06:04There's quite a handful of merchants
06:06to trade with along the main road
06:08who have interest in our war.
06:10I hope your brothers
06:11and the shepherds you're traveling with
06:12keep you safe.
06:13I would come
06:14were it not for Reuben.
06:20I was thinking
06:22when I return
06:23it might be high time
06:26for me to focus my efforts
06:27less on family business
06:29and more on starting family with you.
06:32We do need to move faster
06:34if you're to bear my next 11 children.
06:36Yes, you're a magical 12.
06:50It's so fun.
06:53Good night.
06:55Good night, little stars.
07:08It might be the vision
07:09I had on my way to Haran
07:11when I saw the angels.
07:14They were far away.
07:19Ethereal.
07:20Difficult to behold with the eye
07:21but at the same time
07:24bright and beautiful.
07:26I wish I could have seen it.
07:30I remember when he told us
07:31that story the first time we met.
07:33I was so impressed
07:36that God himself
07:37had spoken to you.
07:42I haven't heard the Lord's voice
07:43in a long time
07:44but
07:45I often reach out
07:46to the memory of that vision
07:48in difficult moments.
07:50You're a man of deep faith.
07:53It's what drew me to you.
08:01I've lost track of time
08:03I should leave.
08:04Must you?
08:06You know Rachel
08:08wouldn't appreciate me
08:09tarrying in your tent.
08:10Playing family with you.
08:12Spending time together.
08:15Our late night conversations.
08:19Sometimes I wonder
08:21if you might not love me too.
08:27Leia, it's not what you think.
08:28I...
08:30I love...
08:33I love the life
08:34that you have given me.
08:35Should that not be enough?
08:49Husband!
08:52Miss me?
08:53You have no idea.
08:56Let's go make a baby then.
09:01Mom.
09:14Two cycles
09:15and still not pregnant.
09:17Guess we'll have to keep trying.
09:24You won't.
09:27There's no pleasant way
09:28to tell you this
09:30but when you were gone
09:31a few months ago
09:32I spent a night
09:33with your sister
09:35and now she's pregnant.
09:37a few minutes of time
10:08It's been a week, Rachel. You've hardly said two words to me.
10:11Do you think that's sufficient time to stop being angry when I'm to be cruelly reminded
10:15for the next nine months of your indiscretion every time I look at Leia's swollen belly?
10:20It is not an indiscretion. Leia is also my wife.
10:23This is not what we agreed on.
10:25Or the agreement to act as if Leia isn't a part of this family. It doesn't work.
10:30You are the love of my life, Rachel. It hurts me to hurt you.
10:35But the truth is, I care for Leia, too.
10:38She is the mother of my child. Soon to be children.
10:42She must have manipulated you. Fallen into your arms.
10:46Sobbing over her loneliness. Going on about how I want her.
10:49She has rights, too, as my wife.
10:51And I can no longer pretend that she doesn't exist.
10:54Or that we are not truly married when we share so many intimate moments together as parents.
10:59You can't possibly understand.
11:00Why won't I understand? Because I'm not a mother.
11:10What are you doing?
11:12There's only one way to fix this problem.
11:14I clearly have a lot of catching up to do.
11:41With each child born to Jacob and I,
11:43my life grew fuller and fuller.
11:46I had everything Rachel wanted.
11:48My sister was always strong, sure, unshakable.
11:58But she was bending under the weight of disappointment.
12:07Ruben, can you come help me in the kitchen?
12:10Okay.
12:12And one can only bend so much before one breaks.
12:45What is it?
12:45What's wrong?
12:51Jacob, please give me children or I shall die.
12:55It's been six years I can't bear it any longer.
12:59Oh, we're trying everything we can.
13:02I want this so badly, too.
13:04Do you?
13:05Because you seem perfectly content to have an entire brood of my sister's children.
13:09How can you say such a thing?
13:11I am desperate to have a child with you.
13:15Then am I in the place of God who has chosen to deny you a babe?
13:18No, you're the one who has denied me a chance to catch up with Leia.
13:21It is painful enough that you can't stop sleeping with my sister,
13:25but she seems to become pregnant when you even cast an eye upon her.
13:29You asked for 12 children.
13:30You already have eight, and none of them are by me.
13:34Then tell me, Rachel.
13:36What would you have me do?
13:39Stop bedding my sister, or I will stop bedding you.
13:46The serpent approached Eve and told her to eat of the fruit of knowledge,
13:52that her eyes shall open, and she'll know good from evil.
14:00But I must leave you in suspense.
14:03It is time for sleep.
14:08Come on, my sons.
14:12My bed grows cold these days, husband.
14:16Keep me company tonight.
14:19I would, but I can't.
14:22Your sister had me swear that I would no longer visit your tent.
14:26Be patient, babe.
14:42Look what Reuben found, sister.
14:48Are those mandrakes?
14:49Yes.
14:50It is said that mandrake roots, when made into a tea,
14:53can help those struggling to conceive.
14:55I've heard of such a rare root.
14:59Give it here.
15:00I see.
15:02They're after something.
15:04What will you have in exchange, then?
15:08One night with Jacob.
15:11You want me to trade Jacob for your sons and mandrakes?
15:15What's one night?
15:16For something that could give you the babe that you've wanted above all else.
15:25Fine.
15:27One night.
15:33Hello, husband.
15:36Don't be alarmed.
15:40Rachel knows.
15:42She and I made an arrangement.
16:03Sister, I must speak with you.
16:07I'm not quite sure how to say this.
16:13I am with child again.
16:17Again.
16:20And you've won.
16:22Another babe.
16:26My little gamble with the mandrakes do not work so well for me.
16:31God favors you indeed.
16:34I'm sorry.
16:35I cannot imagine the pain that you must be in.
16:38Please, don't pretend to feel sorry for me.
16:42I know my failures must be a great joy to you.
16:45They are not.
16:47I have born Jacob, many children.
16:50I am content.
16:52Being the mother of a large family is all I've wanted for a long time.
16:55How wonderful for you.
16:58My dear sister, I have had quite enough of this rivalry over the years.
17:05This child shall be my last.
17:10Your last?
17:14Really?
17:16Yes, Rachel.
17:19I love you.
17:21Despite everything.
17:24Two sisters, one heart.
17:27Remember?
17:30I wish to see your desires come to fruition, too.
17:34I want to see you happy.
17:45Sister, I don't know if it's possible for me to be with child.
17:49We've tried for so long.
17:52Well, then let me help.
17:55Woman to woman.
17:58I may have given Jacob his firstborn, but perhaps you could give him his youngest.
18:04A child that would be just as special in his own way.
18:17You've always been self-reliant.
18:20A practical woman.
18:22And you have made your way so far on reason and resilience.
18:28But sometimes don't you feel that there are things on this earth that cannot be explained
18:36by logic alone.
18:38More and more he says.
18:40We must accept that not everything can be within our control, sister.
18:47The faith in something godly out there, that's...
18:51That's what gives me hope.
18:55Come.
18:57Shall we pray?
19:10Dear Lord, I pray for my sister, that you remember her, that you open her womb, giving
19:20her what she and your faithful servant, Jacob, have so long desired.
19:35Now the only thing to wish for is a healthy and easy pregnancy.
19:49She's looking very pale.
19:51Stay with us.
19:52Stay with us.
19:53The baby's nearly here.
19:55I'll fetch some fresh health.
20:00How is she?
20:01She's doing the best that she can, but Jacob, our mother died, giving birth to Rachel, and
20:06she seems to be experiencing similar difficulties.
20:10I can't lose her.
20:11I can't live without her.
20:13I know.
20:15Me neither.
20:17No.
20:30You did it.
20:31You did it.
20:33Rachel, Rachel, no.
20:35Please, god, no.
20:38Sister, sister.
20:41Oh, no.
20:51Oh, thank God, thank God, my youngest son, Joseph, now this is the happiest day of my life.
21:13Come on, let's go. Come on. I can't tell if father's taking the news well.
21:21He's had a while to prepare himself. Jacob and I have always planned to leave for Canaan once we're married.
21:26I must say, I am worried. You're always worried.
21:30But is it safe? What about Jacob's brother who wanted to kill him? Has his anger been assuaged?
21:35He could be putting our lives in danger, our family's lives in danger,
21:40and leaving our home and everything we've ever known with nothing.
21:44I would never let us leave with nothing. I told Jacob to negotiate with father.
21:50I've built this family's fortune sheep by sheep, and we're deserving of our share.
21:54As for Jacob's family, as you've taught me once, sister, let me now be the one to remind you.
22:01We must have faith.
22:05We've spoken, and your father has been quite accommodating.
22:10I must say, it's going to be very hard to part with my beloved daughters, and frankly, a tragedy.
22:20We left at home alone with those two.
22:27He's even been generous enough to offer some of the flock.
22:31Really?
22:32Yes, of course.
22:33I am very well aware that I have only been blessed with good fortune because of you and Jacob.
22:39So I would like you to go to the flock and separate out both the speckled and the spotted sheep,
22:45and have them for yourselves.
22:52What kind of father would I be if I did not set my children up for success?
23:00Yes, now, here, look.
23:06How was this?
23:09Hey, that guy.
23:11Good.
23:14Good.
23:15I don't see a single black or speckled sheep.
23:18No, neither do I.
23:21We did as you said, father.
23:23We separated all the spotted sheep.
23:25And hid them away.
23:27Rachel and Jacob will never find them.
23:29Good.
23:30And they won't be taking anything that is right for the hours.
23:33With nothing to their name.
23:34I suspect they won't be leaving her on either.
23:37My father tricked us.
23:39We can't let him win.
23:40We were right to that flock.
23:42I shall go to him and speak true.
23:44That will get us nowhere.
23:46We can't prove anything, and if we accuse him now, he'll simply come up with another trick.
23:50Then we must bide our time, regrow the flock, and trick him right back.
23:54But how are we going to rebuild the flock without any black or speckled sheep to breed with?
23:58Besides, it took me nearly 20 years to grow my father's herd.
24:02My love, I will find a way.
24:04I don't know how I am so certain, but I promise you, it will not take another 20 years.
24:11Remember, you taught me everything you know as the best shepherdess in her own.
24:17Even the best shepherdess isn't capable of miracles.
24:22Trust me.
24:58Joseph, wait.
25:02Come, sister, come.
25:04Jacob, you have bred an entire flock out of thin air, and in only a handful of years.
25:10How?
25:11I took poplar, almond and plain, stripped back the bark to expose the white underneath,
25:17then put them in the trough, and set all the white sheep from your father's flock to drink from it.
25:22And when they would breed, all of the lambs were spotted and speckled.
25:27An unusual methodology, is it not? I'd never heard of it.
25:30It was as if I woke up one morning and just knew.
25:34I believe it was God.
25:36He favored us.
25:38You've come a long way from the man who hardly knew how to milk a cow.
25:42Now that we have our own flock, how will we take them with us?
25:46Father will never allow it.
25:49That is why we cannot tell your father.
25:53We will just sneak away without even saying goodbye.
25:56Yes, sister.
25:57We must slip away in the night.
26:17Father, they're gone.
26:19Father, they're gone.
26:21No, who's the take of laying Rachel?
26:24And all of their children and the entire camp.
26:26The whole place is empty.
26:29And they've made off with half of our flock.
26:31All the black and spotted sheep.
26:33Leaving us with a very small and weak herd.
26:35They profited off of us.
26:37They fooled us.
26:38Took women's arrows right out from under us.
26:43They tricked me!
26:45Their own father!
26:50Go to town.
26:51Gather up your men.
26:52We will give chase.
26:53I take everything back!
26:55By force, if necessary.
26:56Go!
26:57Get your men!
26:58Go!
27:06Go!
27:13Go!
27:13Go!
27:14Go!
27:15Go!
27:15Go!
27:16Go!
27:18Go!
27:18Go!
27:18Go!
27:19Go!
27:20Go!
27:22Go!
27:22Go!
27:23Go!
27:23Go!
27:23Go!
27:27Go!
27:33Why are father's idols hidden in your saddle?
27:38I snuck into his camp before we left and I stoke them.
27:42Why?
27:42Our father and brothers will have discovered our absence by now and are surely giving chase.
27:47When they catch us, and they will catch us, they'll seize our flocks and send us away empty-handed.
27:52I can't let that happen.
27:53Oh, father is so very attached to the idols and our brothers want them for themselves.
27:59This will only antagonize them.
28:01That's exactly what I'm counting on.
28:03Just trust me.
28:05We need a contingency plan and this is it.
28:12And say nothing of this to Jacob.
28:42Jacob, Jacob, you laugh without saying a word.
28:48You think it's right to take away a man's daughters like captives of the sword in the night?
28:54You are here to take what is rightfully ours.
28:57How can you say this?
28:59You are the one that cheated me!
29:01If you're speaking of our herd, then we have a right to every creature that we've taken.
29:05I don't think your brothers or our men are going to agree with that.
29:09And besides, there is also the matter of the household idols.
29:13You do know, don't you, that it is a sinful offense to take a man's gods from him.
29:19Not to mention their familial significance.
29:21Those idols have always been held by the leader of our family.
29:24I have not taken your precious household gods.
29:27That would be a sin indeed.
29:28Oh, who did it then?
29:30I think you're nothing but a common thief.
29:33Search our belongings yourself.
29:36And if you find anyone here that has stolen your gods, I swear that they shall not live.
29:42Oh, I will hold you to that promise.
29:54Sister, I can hardly breathe.
29:56I'm going to find the couple of sudden.
29:58Search the test!
29:59I want the bridal frown!
30:07This is the last tent in the camp.
30:09It's mine and Rachel's.
30:10You won't find them here.
30:16There's nothing here, Father.
30:19The only place we haven't searched is your persons.
30:23Hmm?
30:25Up.
30:26I'm sorry, Father.
30:28Please don't be angry.
30:29But I cannot rise before you.
30:32The ways of women are upon me.
30:35Ah.
30:37Hmm.
30:37No, Father.
30:38We cannot touch her during her, um, lunations.
30:42It would be much too unpleasant.
30:44Oh.
30:45Oh, no matter.
30:46Because we will not be leaving before the idols turn up.
30:50In the meantime, my sons, round up the livestock.
30:56Come on.
30:56Come on.
31:00Uh, brother, why don't I show you where the sheep are?
31:02You'd be hard-pressed to find them.
31:10I'm turning into a fine old morning.
31:14Well, I slept rather well for a man on the road.
31:20Why are you all so glum?
31:24Well, yeah, shouldn't there be some cheer when one is with family?
31:27Perhaps you would have more cheer, sir, if you had not overstayed your welcome.
31:31Father!
31:32Father!
31:33Yes?
31:34We were rounding up the livestock when Bium fell.
31:36There they were.
31:37The household idols tumbling out of his pocket.
31:39I never, I didn't, I never touched them.
31:42They're trying to set me up to look bad at Father's eyes.
31:45We all know you'd love to be named patriarch of this family and claim my rightful inheritance.
31:51I have every right to be the patriarch of this family if Father wishes to bequeath me the idols.
31:55I am the eldest son!
32:02I have every right, brother.
32:05You better run, brother, or you still can!
32:09I'm going to catch you!
32:10Afternoon!
32:11Afternoon, dear!
32:15I got horses!
32:18What did you say earlier, sir?
32:21That you'd be leaving once the idols were found?
32:26You framed our brother.
32:28You were right.
32:30It did antagonize them.
32:33Oh, sister, you saved our lives.
32:41We made the last of our long-anticipated journey to Jacob's home.
32:46To our new lives.
32:47I'd been afraid that family strife might greet us.
32:51That we'd be met with resentment, anger, and swords.
32:56But what we found was reconciliation and forgiveness.
33:00Love with our new family and fresh purpose.
33:04Sister, can you believe it?
33:05Canaan.
33:06It's everything I've imagined.
33:09At last, we were home.
33:21Is that how you prevailed over the angel of the Lord, Father?
33:25It was, Joseph.
33:26We wrestled until the break of day, when I finally prevailed.
33:31Though it did not come without pain.
33:33The man broke my hip.
33:35But still, I didn't let him go until he blessed me.
33:40Your father came face to face with God, who gave him his new name, Israel.
33:48Rachel and I were content in Canaan.
33:50Our sisterhood was strong, and so was our family.
33:55But Jacob's dream of twelve sons never faded in my mind.
33:59I could not ignore the desire.
34:04And neither could she.
34:09Why do you have landrakes?
34:11Are you trying to have another child?
34:14You are, aren't you, Leia?
34:17I've only ever been able to bear one child.
34:21When I have always wanted several.
34:24But I was never blessed.
34:26Not like you.
34:28And you're nearly past the ways of women.
34:31If anyone should carry another child, it's me.
34:34Rachel, you nearly died giving birth to Joseph.
34:38You would be risking your life.
34:39You can't do it.
34:40I can, and I shall.
34:43It would be worth the risk.
34:45Then we shall see who bears the twelfth son.
35:15I'm scared.
35:17I'm scared.
35:17I'm here.
35:18I'm here.
35:19I'm here.
35:21I'm here.
35:45I'm here.
35:54I'm not going to make it, Emily.
35:57Please, sister.
35:59Please stay with us.
36:02You were right.
36:05You told me it was too dangerous to have another baby.
36:11Oh, I let my jealousy get the best of me.
36:17It will haunt me forever if this costs you your life.
36:23I played my part in this too.
36:27But I look at our beautiful family and my beautiful son.
36:34And I think it was all worth the sacrifice, wasn't it?
36:42And every tear and every painful moment.
36:48God has a destiny for us all.
36:55I love you.
36:58Two sisters, one heart.
37:18You promised me you'll raise my son as if you were your own.
37:23I promise.
37:25I promise.
37:33His name is Benjamin.
37:38My youngest and last.
37:41A child of sorrow.
37:45But also strength.
37:51Life is much too short.
37:54Is it not, my love?
38:00I could have spent eternity with you.
38:11Rachel said, God has a plan for each of us.
38:15And that sometimes it would be far too great for us to understand.
38:21She was right.
38:44Benjamin was always ravenous.
38:47You could never feed that boy enough.
38:49I need to remove my aunt before she tells that awful story again about how I became violently ill eating
38:53that cursed ghost medicine.
38:57You're supposed to tell stories that would make me more appealing to my soon-to-be wife, not less.
39:02Let me have my fun.
39:07Aunt, do you?
39:09Do you think Mother was watching over our merriment?
39:13I'm sure of it.
39:16Nights like these, I can almost feel her here with us.
39:24I am.
39:27I brought this with me.
39:31It's all I have of her.
39:34That's not true.
39:36You have her eyes, you have her smile, but most of all, you have her courage.
39:45And she would be so proud of the man that you are today.
39:54Son.
39:57It's time.
40:10You outdid yourself.
40:12Rachel would have loved it.
40:14Would she have?
40:15Or would she have rather been hiding with the sheep than dealing with all of the gossiping wives and Flora
40:20and her angels?
40:23I miss her.
40:25So much.
40:28I do, too.
40:31She would want us to be joyful tonight.
40:35She would tell us that this is exactly as we dreamed.
40:40As God promised.
40:43That our descendants number as many as the stars.
40:48Maybe not as many as the stars.
40:52Not yet.
40:53But one day they will.
40:58There are.
41:06There are.
41:10There are.
41:14There are.
41:16There are.
41:18Things that haven't lived or been our cycle.
41:21There are.
41:25Times.
41:26People that haven't died.
41:26I love you.
41:56I love you.
