Rachel's Death as She Gives Birth to Benjamin in Genesis
God told to go to Bethel. Bethel was the place where God had appeared to Jacob when he had fled from his brother Esau. Jacob had named the place Bethel, which means "house of God," because it was there that he had seen a ladder extending to heaven, and angels ascending and descending upon the ladder. He had also called the place the "gate of heaven." At that time, God had promised him that he would eventually return safely to that place. So Jacob and his family went to Bethel.
At Bethel, God appeared to Jacob again, and spoke to him, changing his name to Israel.
After that, Israel and his family left Bethel, and set out for Ephrath, which is also called Bethlehem. When they were almost there, Rachel, whose name meant "lamb," went into labor. While she was in labor, the midwife said to her, "Fear not; thou shalt have this son also." As she died in childbirth, she named her new son Benoni, which means "son of my sorrow," but his father called him Benjamin, which means "son of the right-hand side." So Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath, that is, Bethlehem.
Israel continued on his journey, and spread his tent beyond the tower of Edar. The tower of Edar is apparently the place where Jesus was born.
