[Leah] conceived again, gave birth to a son, and said, “At last, my husband will become attached to me because I have borne three sons for him.” Therefore he was named Levi. (Genesis 29:34)
The name Levi sounds like the Hebrew word for “attached.”
Leah longed for attachment, for love.
Many today seek that kind of attachment and love.
And that’s what God has given us in his Son.
At that time you were without Christ, excluded from the citizenship of Israel, and foreigners to the covenants of promise, without hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus, you who were far away have been brought near by the blood of Christ. (Ephesians 2:12-13)
