Trans Torah: Moshiach ben Yosef v'Dinah

Is a prayer in that case ineffective? Rav Yosef raises an objection based on a baraita: It is stated: “And afterwards she bore a daughter, and called her name Dina” (Genesis 30:21). The Gemara asks: What is meant by the addition of the word: Afterwards? What does the verse seek to convey by emphasizing that after the birth of Zebulun she gave birth to Dina? Rav said: After Leah passed judgment on herself and said: Twelve tribes are destined to descend from Jacob, six came from me and four from the maidservants, that is ten, and if this fetus is male, my sister Rachel will not even be the equivalent of one the maidservants; immediately the fetus was transformed into a daughter, as it is stated: And she called her name Dina; meaning she named her after her judgment [din]. The Gemara rejects this: One does not mention miraculous acts to teach general halakha.

(21) And afterward [Leah] bore a daughter, and called her name Dinah; for she said, "Din"/Judgement is from before the Divine, that there shall be from me a half of the tribes; but from Rahel my sister shall go forth two tribes, even as they shall proceed (in like manner) from each of the handmaids. And the prayer of Leah was heard before the Lord; and the infants were changed In their wombs; and Joseph was given to the womb of Rahel, and Dinah to the womb of Leah.

(1) Now Dinah, the "daughter" whom Leah had borne to Jacob, went out to visit the daughters of the land. (2) Shechem son of Hamor the Hivite, chief of the country, saw her, and took her and lay with her and disgraced her. (3) Being strongly drawn to Dinah daughter of Jacob, and in love with the boy, he spoke to the boy tenderly.

Chaim Vital
You already know what our sages, of blessed memory, said regarding the verse “and afterward she bore a daughter”—that it was originally a male, and through Leah’s prayer it was transformed into a female. Thus, it was Leah who caused Dinah to be a girl, and therefore she is called the daughter of Leah, and not the daughter of Jacob.
This is also the secret of why Dinah is written in Scripture as na’ar (youth, masculine), but we read it as na’arah (young woman, feminine)—because initially she was a male youth, and afterward she became a female youth.

,,,(11) We must not spend time wondering how such a misfortune could have happened and what errors if any her parents had committed. We must remember that Dinah's nature was like that of a male who is in the habit of going out into the field; this is how she conducted herself. Our sages have explained that as a fetus Dinah grew in her mother's womb as a male child, and that it was Leah's prayer which led to her being born as a female (Berachot 60).

(7) “Joseph, seventeen years old…” – [so why do] you say [t]he[y] were a lad? It is because [t]he[y] would do the things of teen girls: [t]he[y] would groom [their] eyes, lift [their] heels, and curl [their] hair...

(3) Now Israel loved Joseph best of all his sons—he was his “child of old age”; and he had made them a (princess')"ketonat pasim"/ornamented tunic.

(18) [Princess Tamar] was wearing a "ketonat pasim"/ornamented tunic, for maiden princesses were customarily dressed in such garments...

(17) Leah had weak eyes; Rachel was shapely and beautiful/yafat to'ar v'yafat mareh.

(6) He left all that he had in Joseph’s hands and, with him there, he paid attention to nothing save the food that he ate. Now Joseph was shapely and beautiful/yafat to'ar v'yafat mareh.

(7)“It was on a certain day, he came into the house to perform his labor, and there was no man from the people of the house in the house” (Genesis 39:11). – is it possible that this man’s house remained without anyone [inside]? ...Rabbi Neḥemya said: It was the day of the theater. Everyone went to see it, but he did not go. Instead, “he came into the house to perform his labor” – to calculate his master’s accounts. Rabbi Shmuel bar Naḥman said: “to perform his labor” indeed (to submit to the demands of Potiphar's wife).However, “there was no man” – he examined himself and did not find himself to be a man...
(The text uses this Biblical phrase as a euphemism for Yosef's virility, we can read it literally as a reference to Yosef's gender.)

(23) Joseph lived to see children of the third generation of Ephraim; the children of Machir son of Manasseh were likewise born upon Joseph’s knees.

(25) The God of your father’s [house], who helps you, and Shaddai/God of Breasts who blesses you with blessings of heaven above, Blessings of the deep that couches below, Blessings of the breast and womb.

(1)... Dinah went forth to see those girls who were making merry; and he seized her, and he slept with her, and she conceived and bare Osnat. The sons of Israel said that she should be killed, for they said that now people would say in all the land that there was an immoral daughter in the tents of Jacob.
(2) What did (Jacob) do? He wrote the Holy Name upon a golden plate, and suspended it about [Osnat's] neck and sent her away. She went her way. Everything is revealed before the Holy One, blessed be He, and Michael the angel descended and took her, and brought her down to Egypt to the house of Potiphera; because Osnat was destined to become the wife of Joseph. Now the wife of Potiphera was barren, and (Osnat) grew up with her as a daughter. When Joseph came down to Egypt he married her, as it is said, "And he gave him to wife Osnat the daughter of Potiphera priest of On" (Gen. 41:45).

§ Apropos the end of days, the Gemara cites another verse and interprets it homiletically. It is stated: “The Lord then showed me four craftsmen” (Zechariah 2:3). Who are these four craftsmen? Rav Ḥana bar Bizna said that Rabbi Shimon Ḥasida said: They are Messiah ben David, Messiah ben Yosef, Elijah, and the righteous High Priest, who will serve in the Messianic era....

King Shapur of Persia said to Shmuel mockingly: You say that the Messiah will come on a donkey; I will send him the riding [barka] horse that I have. Shmuel said to him: Do you have a horse with a multitude of colors [bar ḥivar gavanei] like the donkey of the Messiah?
