Genesis 30:7 Commentary: Haamek Davar

וַתַּ֣הַר ע֔וֹד וַתֵּ֕לֶד בִּלְהָ֖ה שִׁפְחַ֣ת רָחֵ֑ל בֵּ֥ן שֵׁנִ֖י לְיַעֲקֹֽב׃

And Bilhah Rachel’s handmaid conceived again, and bore Jacob a second son.

Haamek Davar on Genesis

Rochel’s handmaid. This is reiterated here to indicate that unlike Hagar, she continued to treat her mistress with respect even after she conceived.
