From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

As Jacob and his entourage near the border of Canaan, Rachel goes into labor and dies as she gives birth to her second—and Jacob's twelfth—son, Benjamin. Jacob buries her and erects a monument over her grave, which is located just outside Bethlehem. Jacob is finally reunited with his father Isaac in Mamre, outside Hebron. When Isaac dies at the age of 180, Jacob and Esau bury him.
