Genesis 30:18

And Leah said, God hath given me my hire ,.... Of the mandrakes with which she had hired of Rachel a night's lodging with Jacob, and for which she had a sufficient recompense, by the son that God had given her: and she added another reason, and a very preposterous one, and shows she put a wrong construction on the blessing she received:

because I have given my maiden to my husband ; which, she judged, was so well pleasing to God, that he had rewarded her with another son:

and she called his name Issachar , which signifies "hire" or "reward"; or, there is a reward, or a man of reward.
