Given by: the narrative of Jubilees, praising Leah at her death and Jacob's love for her. Given to: the reader, as a portrait of a marriage marked by gentle speech and honour.

Leah was the wife Jacob had not chosen and did not first love; Jubilees redeems her memory by honouring the character she showed within the marriage, and Jacob's grief shows love grown deep over years.

for she was perfect and upright in all her ways and honoured Jacob,and all the days that she lived with him he did not hear from her mouth a harsh word, for she was gentle and peaceable and upright and honourable.

Leah is remembered for gentle, harsh-word-free speech and honour toward her husband; Jacob mourns her with his whole heart and soul.
