Genesis 34

Jacob's dream reveals the nature of the kingdom of God But now he is returning to his homeland. Babylon was like Mystery Babylon prophesied but not seen by who sit in darkness. The masses are brought into bondage to systems of governments of men like Cain, Nimrod, the Fathers^[1] of the earth, and call themselves Benefactors but who exercise authority^[2] one over the other to provide dainties of welfare at their tables. This is done by the covetous practices to appease their wantonness at the expense of others. ^[3] but Nimrods method brought confusion and divided the people and scattered them as they degenerated becoming a top down rule of the Masses through the welfare State. Jacob's dream talks of angels(mal’ăḵê מַלְאֲכֵ֥י)^[4] who may be messengers (hammal’āḵîm הַמַּלְאָכִ֔ים )^[4] who go up and down is about the form of governance required to become Israel.

There is a great deal of speculation as to the time frame of these events but there seem little understanding of the significants of the altar built by Jacob and less of Genesis 33:18 “‭And Jacob came to Shalem, a city of Shechem". Shalem was no more a city "in the land of Canaan" than Melchisedec was the king of Salem.
If we suppose Dinah to have been born in the same year with Joseph, who was in his seventeenth year at the time of his being sold as a bondslave Genesis 37:2, the events of this chapter must have occurred in the interval between the completion of her twelfth and that of her sixteenth year.
"Shekem" existed before the time of Abraham because consent existed.^[5]They were Hivite as called in the text as descendant of Kenaan at a former period Genesis 12:6.
We know the suitor of Diana "Spake to the heart of the damsel" We are led to believe he robbed her of her honor first but then promised to recognize her as his wife, provided he can gain the consent of her relatives. "Shekem spake unto his father Hamor." Hamor would express a willingness to follow the ways of Jacob which were the ways of Melchizedek and Abraham.^[6]
Two Ways
“Every kingdom divided against itself is brought to desolation, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand." Matthew 12:25
"Do you think I came to bring peace on earth? No, I tell you, but division." Luke 12:51
There was the Smoking furnace and a burning lamp of the vision of Abraham.
Genesis is the story of two ways to forms a government. The way of Nimrod of Babylon, Abimelech, King Bera of Sodom, and Pharaoh of Egypt requires consent. These were all to become cities of blood which were cauldrons and flesh pots where the masses bite one another as men do when reduced to human resources by their appetite for benefits.
"but both when he came from Padanaram; and pitched his tent before the city.” Is that not what Abraham did?
What to see?
V1 "to see the daughters" bib·nō·wt בִּבְנ֥וֹת which is used here and in Judges 14:3 concerning the woman or daughter of the uncircumcised Philistines who was desired by Samson. It could be suggested that the true meaning was that it was the circumcision of the heart that was lacking.
The way of righteousness requiers an circumsized heart. That was critical to be Israel. And the son of Jacob were vain, not being Israel. This vanity kept them from understanding.
This HEB: וַיִּשְׁכַּ֥ב אֹתָ֖הּ וַיְעַנֶּֽהָ׃ is also scene in 2 Samuel 13:14 "Howbeit he would not hearken unto her voice: but, being stronger than she, forced (וַיְעַנֶּ֔הָ) ^[7] by 'verse 17name' her, and lay with her."
Dogma blasphemes the LORD
V13 in Genesis 27:35 uses the word subtilty to describe Jacob's obtaining a blessing Isaac who thought Esau should have that blessing. The same Hebrew word in the same form is used here for the second time in the Bible and translated deceitfully(bemirmāh בְּמִרְמָ֖ה). This particular word is only found in Jeremiah 9:6 'Thine habitation is in the midst of deceit; through deceit they refuse to know me, saith the LORD." They justified this deceit with "because he had defiled Dinah their sister:" They are unforgiving and because of their self-righteousness dogma and are literally cutting themselves off from the LORD.
V30 And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled(‘ă·kar·tem עֲכַרְתֶּ֣ם ) me to make me to stink la·hab·’î·šê·nî לְהַבְאִישֵׁ֙נִי֙ Lamed Hey Beit Alef Yod Shin Nun Yod ⁿ making me repugnant") among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and I being few in number, they shall gather themselves together against me, and slay^[8] me; and I shall be destroyed^[9]“, I and my house.

Questions


1

Dinah and the daughters

1 And Dinah the daughter of Leah, which she bare unto Jacob, went out to see the daughters of the land.

Shechem

2 And when Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite, prince of the country, saw her, he took her, and lay with her, and defiled (וַיְעַנֶּֽהָ)^[10] her.

3 And his soul clave unto Dinah the daughter of Jacob, and he loved the damsel, and spake kindly unto the damsel.

4 And Shechem spake unto his father Hamor, saying, Get me this damsel to wife.

5 And Jacob heard that he had defiled (טִמֵּא֙) Dinah his daughter: now his sons were with his cattle in the field: and Jacob held his peace until they were come.

Hamor requests

6 And Hamor the father of Shechem went out unto Jacob to commune with him.

7 And the sons of Jacob came out of the field when they heard it: and the men were grieved, and they were very wroth, because he had wrought folly in Israel in lying with Jacob's daughter; which thing ought not to be done.

8 And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her him to wife.

9 And make ye marriages with us, and give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you.

Dwell with us

10 And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein.

11 And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find grace in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I will give.

12 Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to wife.

Sons of Jacob Answer

13 And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully (bemirmāh בְּמִרְמָ֖ה), and said, because he had defiled Dinah their sister:

14 And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us:

15 But in this will we consent unto you: If ye will be as we be, that every male of you be circumcised;

16 Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people.

17 But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone.

The words pleased

18 And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son.

19 And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter: and he was more honourable than all the house of his father.

Communed with the men of the city

20 And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying,

Men of peace

21 These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for the land, behold, it is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters.

22 Only herein will the men consent unto us for to dwell with us, to be one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised.

23 Shall not their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us.

All who went out the gate

24 And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city.

Boldly slew the men

25 And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew all the males.

26 And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out.

Sons spoiled the city

27 The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.

28 They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field,

29 And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives took they captive, and spoiled even all that was in the house.

Jacob stinks

30 And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled (‘ă·kar·tem עֲכַרְתֶּ֣ם ) me to make me to stink la·hab·’î·šê·nî לְהַבְאִישֵׁ֙נִי֙ by making me repugnant") among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and I being few in number, they shall gather themselves together against me, and slay^[8] me; and I shall be destroyed^[9]“, I and my house.
