Where did your name come from?
The name Reuben originated from the Hebrew name ืจึฐืืึผืึตื (Re’uven), which means “behold, a son”. In the Bible, Reuben was the first-born son of Jacob and Leah, and was one of the twelve tribes of Israel.
According to the Bible, Reuben was born to Jacob and Leah while they were still living in Paddan Aram. Reuben was known for his strength, but his character was not always honorable. He committed a sin by sleeping with his father’s concubine, which caused him to lose his status as the firstborn. Despite this, Reuben is still considered one of the twelve tribes of Israel and his descendants played an important role in Israel’s history.
