創世記 34:6-12 JCB

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - Genesis 34:1-31

Genesis 34. Shechem’ s Outrage on Dinah Avenged.— It is generally agreed that two sources have been used, but much uncertainty prevails as to their identity and extent, while in view of the priestly phraseology in one of the narratives, it is probable that the compiler has left his mark rather deeply upon it, unless we assign it directly to P, who may have employed an earlier story. According to one story, perhaps J, Shechem seduces Dinah and keeps her in his house. Jacob announces the news... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - Genesis 34:7

Because he had wrought folly; that is, wickedness; which howsoever vain men many times esteem their wisdom, by the sentence of the all-wise God is accounted and commonly in Scripture called folly, as Deuteronomy 22:21; Joshua 7:15; Judges 19:23; Judges 20:6, &c. In Israel, or, against Israel; either, 1. Against the person, and in or against the family of Israel, a person near and dear to God, and highly honoured by him, and in covenant with God; who therefore esteems the injuries done to... read more

Hamor communed with them; with Jacob’s sons, to whom Jacob committed the business, being himself oppressed with shame and grief, and fear for his daughter. Your daughter, the daughter of your family; or he thus speaketh to her brothers, because they transacted all in their father’s name. read more

Before you, i.e. in your power, to dwell where you please, and to have the same rights and privileges in it which we enjoy. See Genesis 20:15. Get you possessions therein; or, take possession in it, i.e. in any vacant part of it; use it for pasture or tillage, as you think good, and take the benefit to yourselves. read more

Dowry to her for her portion, according to the ancient custom of men’s buying their wives; of which see Exodus 22:17; and gift to you, either for reparation of the past injury, or in testimony of my respect to you, and desire of her, as Genesis 24:53. read more

CRITICAL NOTES.—Genesis 34:6. Hamor, the father of Shechem, went out unto Jacob to commune with him.] In Oriental countries the fathers arrange the marriages of their children. Genesis 34:7. Wrought folly in Israel.] “This was a standing phrase from this time forth for crimes against the honour and vocation of Israel as the covenant people, especially for gross sins of the flesh.” (Deuteronomy 22:21; Judges 20:10; 2 Samuel 13:2.) “Fool” and “folly” are terms used of impiety and iniquity.” (See... read more

Chuck Smith Bible Commentary - Genesis 34:1-31

Chapter 34Now there's a time gap between chapters thirty-three and thirty-four because at the time that they had left the land of Padanaram, Dinah was less than six years old. And now she comes into the story at this point and obviously is older than that. And Dinah the daughter of Leah ( Genesis 34:1 ), Who was, of course, the first wife that Laban had given to him, the older sister and after Dinah-Leah actually, had born several sons to Jacob, she finally bore a daughter. And so she had a lot... read more

Genesis 34:1. Dinah. One of the oldest of Jacob’s daughters, for he had many: Genesis 37:35. Josephus intimates that it was a festival day, and it is probable that she had been invited by ladies with whom her family was acquainted. She was then about fifteen years of age, but it does not appear that Jacob knew of this visit to the feast. Genesis 34:12. Dowry, to the father, and gift to the lady. When Cyrus concluded the match with Gobrias, that Hystaspes should marry his daughter, he... read more

II. IT WAS A GRIEVOUS SIN. 1. Unjust and cruel. The punishment was far in excess of the fault, and the innocent were made to suffer with the guilty. 2.
