Bilhah

1) Rachel's servant girl given to her by her father Laban on her marriage to Jacob (Gen 29:29), and whom she pressed on her husband Jacob by which to secure a child. Through Bilhah Jacob sired Dan (30:6) and Naphtali (30:8). She must have been very young when she was given to Rachel and, therefore, not much older than Jacob's firstborn son Reuben for he was found sleeping with her and "defiling" his father's bed (Gen 35:16).

2) Bilhah was also the name of a town listed as belonging to the tribe of Simean (1 Chron 4:29); nothing is known about it.
