Dinah, the daughter of Leah, whom she bore to Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land. Gen 30:21Jer 2:361Ti 5:13Gen 26:34Gen 27:46Gen 28:6Gen 30:13Gen 46:15 Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, the prince of the land, saw her. He took her, lay with her, and humbled her. Mat 5:28Jdg 14:1Job 31:1Job 31:9Pro 13:202Sa 11:2Deu 21:14Deu 22:24 His soul joined to Dinah, the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the young lady, and spoke kindly to the young lady. Hos 2:14Isa 40:21Sa 18:12Ch 30:222Sa 19:7Rut 1:14 Shechem spoke to his father, Hamor, saying, “Get me this young lady as a wife.” Jdg 14:22Sa 13:13Gen 21:21
Now Jacob heard that he had defiled Dinah, his daughter; and his sons were with his livestock in the field. Jacob held his peace until they came. 2Sa 13:221Sa 10:271Sa 16:111Sa 17:15Gen 30:35Gen 37:13-14Lev 10:3Luk 15:25 Hamor the father of Shechem went out to Jacob to talk with him. The sons of Jacob came in from the field when they heard it. The men were grieved, and they were very angry, because he had done folly in Israel in lying with Jacob’s daughter, a thing that ought not to be done. Jdg 20:6Jos 7:15Deu 22:21Gen 20:9Heb 13:41Co 10:81Co 6:181Pe 2:9 Hamor talked with them, saying, “The soul of my son, Shechem, longs for your daughter. Please give her to him as a wife. 1Ki 11:2Psa 119:20Gen 34:3Psa 63:1Psa 84:2 Make marriages with us. Give your daughters to us, and take our daughters for yourselves. Deu 7:3Gen 19:14Gen 24:3Gen 26:34-35Gen 27:46Gen 6:2 You shall dwell with us, and the land will be before you. Live and trade in it, and get possessions in it.” Gen 13:9Gen 20:15Gen 42:34Gen 47:27Gen 34:21-23
Shechem said to her father and to her brothers, “Let me find favor in your eyes, and whatever you will tell me I will give. Gen 33:15Gen 18:3 Ask me a great amount for a dowry, and I will give whatever you ask of me, but give me the young lady as a wife.” Exo 22:16-171Sa 18:25-272Sa 3:14Deu 22:28-29Gen 24:53Gen 29:18Gen 31:41Mat 14:17
The sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father with deceit when they spoke, because he had defiled Dinah their sister, 1Th 5:152Sa 13:23-29Gen 25:27-34Isa 59:13Jdg 15:3Job 13:4Job 13:7Mat 28:13 and said to them, “We can’t do this thing, to give our sister to one who is uncircumcised; for that is a reproach to us. 1Ki 21:91Sa 14:61Sa 17:261Sa 17:362Sa 1:202Sa 15:7Gen 17:11Gen 17:14 Only on this condition will we consent to you. If you will be as we are, that every male of you be circumcised, Gal 4:12 then will we give our daughters to you; and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people. But if you will not listen to us and be circumcised, then we will take our sister, 1 and we will be gone.”
Their words pleased Hamor and Shechem, Hamor’s son. The young man didn’t wait to do this thing, because he had delight in Jacob’s daughter, and he was honored above all the house of his father. 1Ch 4:91Sa 22:142Ki 5:1Act 13:50Act 17:12Gen 29:20Gen 41:20Isa 23:8-9 Hamor and Shechem, his son, came to the gate of their city, and talked with the men of their city, saying, Rut 4:12Sa 15:2Amo 5:10Amo 5:12Amo 5:15Deu 17:5Gen 22:17Gen 23:10 “These men are peaceful with us. Therefore let them live in the land and trade in it. For behold, the land is large enough for them. Let’s take their daughters to us for wives, and let’s give them our daughters. Only on this condition will the men consent to us to live with us, to become one people, if every male among us is circumcised, as they are circumcised. Won’t their livestock and their possessions and all their animals be ours? Only let’s give our consent to them, and they will dwell with us.” Pro 1:12-131Ti 6:6-10Act 19:24-26Jhn 2:16Jhn 6:26-27Pro 23:4-5Pro 28:20
All who went out of the gate of his city listened to Hamor, and to Shechem his son; and every male was circumcised, all who went out of the gate of his city. 1Co 7:19Gen 23:10Gen 17:23Gen 23:18Isa 1:10-16Mat 7:6Rom 2:28-29 On the third day, when they were sore, two of Jacob’s sons, Simeon and Levi, Dinah’s brothers, each took his sword, came upon the unsuspecting city, and killed all the males. Gen 49:5-7Gen 29:33-342Ch 32:25Jos 5:6Jos 5:8Num 31:17Num 31:7Pro 4:16 They killed Hamor and Shechem, his son, with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem’s house, and went away. 2Sa 2:26Deu 32:42Isa 31:8 Jacob’s sons came on the dead, and plundered the city, because they had defiled their sister. 1Ti 6:10Est 9:10Est 9:16Exo 2:14Gen 34:2Gen 34:31Jos 7:1Jos 7:13 They took their flocks, their herds, their donkeys, that which was in the city, that which was in the field, Deu 8:17-18Job 1:15-16Job 20:5Num 31:17 and all their wealth. They took captive all their little ones and their wives, and took as plunder everything that was in the house. Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have troubled me, to make me odious to the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites. I am few in number. They will gather themselves together against me and strike me, and I will be destroyed, I and my house.” 1Sa 13:4Exo 5:21Jos 7:25Psa 105:121Ch 16:191Ch 19:61Sa 27:12Gen 13:7
They said, “Should he deal with our sister as with a prostitute?” Pro 6:34Gen 34:13Gen 49:7
