.. fourteen daughters born to jacob



..

b3141 ... thought i had a fairly decent knowledge of old testament.
Then i found sites
like http://www.jewishgates.com/file.asp?File_ID=1312 which contend
that jacob was the father of fourteen daughters ! !


it looks as though benjamin had TWO twin sisters while other sons of
jacob had one twin sister each. I've even seen some talmud-related
sites which have leah and rachel as twins.... probably frathernal
twins since the two lasses don't seem to have resembled each other.


.... a/ any additional data on this matter would be welcome


... ... b/ do we have any idea of names of benjamin's two twin
sisters ?


... c/ do we know names of benjamin's wives ?


d/ how does dinah fit into the schemata ? is she meant to be counted
as one of the fourteen ? Whose twin was she ? Why is dinah's name
provided while names of her sisters and half-sisters are not ?
