Reference for Bava Batra 245:17

והיינו דכתיב (בראשית כט, לא) וירא ה' כי שנואה לאה מאי שנואה אילימא שנואה ממש אפשר בגנות בהמה טמאה לא דבר הכתוב בגנות צדיקים דבר הכתוב אלא ראה הקב"ה ששנואין מעשה עשו בפניה ויפתח את רחמה

He said unto him: But had not Reuben sinned, [Jacob] would not have bestowed upon Joseph any benefit at all?<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Surely, his recognition of Joseph's services should not have depended on the remote chance of a birthright becoming available for disposal. ');"><sup>30</sup></span> But R. Jonathan your master did not say so.<span class="x" onmousemove="('comment',' Jacob gave to Joseph, in recognition of his benefaction, other gifts and blessings, while the change of the birthright was due to other causes. ');"><sup>31</sup></span>
