GENESIS 34

DINAH + THE SHECHEMITES 

Dinah, the daughter of Leah and Jacob, is seized, raped, defiled, and humiliated by a man named Shechem.

When Shechem asks to marry her, Dinah’s brothers demand that all the men in the city be circumcised. While the men are recovering, Simeon and Levi take revenge by killing them and plundering their belongings. Jacob is troubled by their actions and fears retaliation.
