Jacob means "heel holder" or "supplanter" but this was later changed to Israel, which means "God prevails" or "He retains God" or "God Is Upright", after he had wrestled with God and prevailed (Genesis 32:22-31). He is the son of Isaac and he lived from 2108 FC to 2255 FC (1860 BC – 1713 BC | 147 yrs). Isaac is 74 yrs old when Jacob was born. Jacob is the grandson of Abraham and the father of the 12 tribes of Israel.

Why we chose that time?

The dating of Jacob’s sons is a bit tricky, because there are a couple of ambiguous statements; we can date Joseph very easily, but the rest take a bit more work. We know Jacob was 130 when he met Pharaoh (Genesis 47:8-9). We know that was the second year of the famine (Genesis 45:6-11). We know that before that were seven good years (Genesis 41:47). And we know that Joseph was 30 years old at the beginning of the first good year (Genesis 41:46).

Thus, we subtract from Jacob’s 130 years the 2 years of famine; 7 years of plenty; and Joseph’s age of 30 years; and we find Joseph was born when Jacob was 91. Joseph was sold into Egypt at 17 (Genesis 37:2), and died at 110 (Genesis 50:26). So go ahead and write all that down on your chart.  

We don’t know when Benjamin was born, but it is likely it was after Joseph was sold into Egypt because at that time, it seems his mother was still alive (Genesis 37:10). “Seems” is in italics because there is an argument against that, but we won’t go into that now.  

As a minor point, Joseph was a tattle-tale (verses 2-3), and that does not appear to be treated as a bad thing by the Bible. As for the rest of Jacob’s sons, that requires us to backtrack a bit. Jacob fled to Haran, where Abraham’s family was, to escape Esau, and there met Rachel (Genesis 27:41-45, 28:1-5). We are not told how old he was when this happened, but we can figure it out with some clever reasoning.

We know that Jacob worked for his wives for 7 years apiece, plus 6 years to round out twenty years, before he left Haran with all of his children and wives (Genesis 31:38-41). We know Joseph had been born in Haran, and Jacob left Haran soon after (Genesis 30:24-25).  

This means Jacob would have arrived in Haran when he was 71, worked for 7 years for his first wife and began having children at 78. Thus leaving him 13 years to have all of his children. This is not impossible of course, with four women it’s quite easy; however, it leaves several problems to be solved.  

For example, Judah was Leah’s fourth child, thus he would have been born at a minimum of four years later, when Jacob was 82. Then it says he married about the time that Joseph was sold into Egypt, when Jacob was 108.  

Then he had children. The oldest, Onan, was old enough to take a wife himself, be killed; the next oldest was old enough to take her, be killed; then the youngest needed quite some time to grow up, then Judah married Tamar, she had twins, then one of those twins, Pharez, was old enough to have children of his own when they went into Egypt (Genesis 46:12)... all within the space of 22 years, by the time Jacob was 130!

That’s patently impossible, unless Judah’s children married and had children at 8 years old. Even if you say that Judah married earlier, before Joseph’s sale into slavery, Judah was born at 82 years of Jacob, minimum, allowing that he might have married as early as 15, thus had his first child when Jacob was 97... that still only allows another 11 years, and it is still quite impossible.  

If Jacob went to Haran at 71, it raises another problem; after Jacob left, Esau went to Ishmael to get a wife (Genesis 28:9). You’ll see the problem with that if you refer to the timeline, for Ishmael died when Jacob was 63!

Twenty Or Forty?

So again, challenge your assumptions. We’re basing all this on the statement of Jacob that he had been with Laban for 20 years in Genesis 31:38-41. But read that carefully. Analyze it. What other possible interpretations are contained in those verses? Could it be that those twenty year periods, mentioned separately, are in fact separate periods?

They aren’t described the same; “this twenty years HAVE I BEEN WITH THEE; thy ewes and thy she-goats have not cast their young, and the rams of thy flock have I not eaten” and “thus have I been twenty years in thy house: I SERVED THEE fourteen years for thy two daughters, and six years for thy cattle; and thou hast changed my wages ten times.”

Those are similar, but not identical. In one, he SERVED Laban, for his cattle and daughters. But in the other he was WITH Laban; not as a servant, but as a partner or friend. The Hebrew supports this, because each time the word “twenty” is used in this passage it is prefaced by the word zeh (which isn’t translated into English in most Bibles).

When repeated, like “zeh twenty... blah blah blah... zeh twenty” this word is used to separate two distinct things, as we say “this twenty and that twenty, the one twenty or the other twenty”. Examples of this usage in scripture include Exodus 14:20, Ecclesiastes 6:5, Job 21:23-25, where clearly contrasting ideas are separated.

So a better translation of this passage would be “DURING THE ONE TWENTY YEARS I WAS WITH THEE; thy ewes and thy she-goats have not cast their young, ... DURING THE OTHER TWENTY YEARS FOR MYSELF, IN THY HOUSE, I served ...”

This solves all the problems posed above. It has Jacob going up to Laban when he was 51, marrying Leah at 58, Rachel at 65 (though he may have married her at the same time as Leah, but didn’t finish paying for her until he was 65); working to start his own flock for 6 more years; and then for 20 years working with Laban as a partner.

So we’ve solved all the problems in this area... unfortunately, this is a dead end. There is genealogical information carrying us through Egypt, but no direct “and he lived... years, and had a son, and he lived... years, and died”. Fortunately, whenever the Bible leaves a gap like this, it gives us a bridge to span the gap — Covenant of faith
