[Answer] Who was Jacob's eldest son?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Who was Jacob's eldest son? "

...Jacob was the father to 12 sons, through his two wives and both their maidservants. Eleven of the sons loathed their brother Joseph. They conspired amongst themselves, plotting to kill him. Reuben, the eldest of the 12 brothers, intervened, agreeing to throw Joseph in a pit, but refusing to kill him. According to scriptures, Reuben chose this route to rescue Joseph from the pit later. We have the privilege to know the entire story and how It was all a part of God’s sovereign plan for Joseph to be put in the pit by his siblings. Yet, one can only imagine what the outcome might have been if Reuben had stood against the entire plan and protected his brother as the elder of the 12. We will never know, but in the subsequent years after God elevated Joseph to a powerful position, second only to the Pharaoh in Egypt, he told Reuben and the others, “as for you, you meant evil against me, but God meant it for good…” Genesis 50:20
