Gen. 30:3‑8• 3And she said, Behold my maid Bilhah, go in unto her; and she shall bear upon my knees, that I may also have children by her.
 4And she gave him Bilhah her handmaid to wife: and Jacob went in unto her.
 5And Bilhah conceived, and bare Jacob a son.
 6And Rachel said, God hath judged me, and hath also heard my voice, and hath given me a son: therefore called she his name Dan.
 7And Bilhah Rachel's maid conceived again, and bare Jacob a second son.
 8And Rachel said, With great wrestlings have I wrestled with my sister, and I have prevailed: and she called his name Naphtali. (Gen. 30:3‑8)
;
Gen. 35:22• 22And it came to pass, when Israel dwelt in that land, that Reuben went and lay with Bilhah his father's concubine: and Israel heard it. Now the sons of Jacob were twelve: (Gen. 35:22)
;
Gen. 46:25• 25These are the sons of Bilhah, which Laban gave unto Rachel his daughter, and she bare these unto Jacob: all the souls were seven. (Gen. 46:25)
• Naphtali, Bilhah's son, does not seem to have shown any interest in his genealogy (1 Chron. 7:13). His descendants are scarcely mentioned, and still less, the number of his men of war. (“Issachar, Benjamin, Naphtali, Ephraim, Asher. the Daughters of Zelophehad: 1 Chronicles 7” by H.L. Rossier)
• We cannot emphasize often enough that the importance of the genealogies here is dependent upon the care taken by the families to preserve them during the captivity. Naphtali resembles the dried remnant of a plant that was once green and flourishing, whereas Issachar, Benjamin, and Asher keep intact the deposit that God had confided to them. (“Issachar, Benjamin, Naphtali, Ephraim, Asher. the Daughters of Zelophehad: 1 Chronicles 7” by H.L. Rossier)
