Gênesis 34:10 NVIPT

Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - Genesis 34:6-17

Jacob's sons, when they heard of the injury done to Dinah, showed a very great resentment of it, influenced perhaps rather by jealousy for the honour of their family than by a sense of virtue. Many are concerned at the shamefulness of sin that never lay to heart the sinfulness of it. It is here called folly in Israel (Gen. 34:7), according to the language of after-times; for Israel was not yet a people, but a family only. Note, 1. Uncleanness is folly; for it sacrifices the favour of God,... read more

And ye shall dwell with us ,..... Peaceably and quietly, not as sojourners only, but as inhabitants: and the land shall be before you ; to choose what part of it they pleased to dwell in, and which they should have in their own power and possession: dwell and trade you therein ; in any sort of traffic and commerce the land would admit of, and they should best choose: and get you possessions therein ; buy houses and land, and enjoy them, they and their posterity; these are the... read more

The tragedy at Shechem. I. DINAH AND SHECHEM . 1. A young girl ' s indiscretion . "Dinah went out to see the daughters of the land." If Dinah's object was to witness the manners of the people, she was guilty of objectionable curiosity; if to exhibit herself, of distressing vanity; if to mingle in their entertainments, of improper levity; and for all these reasons, considering the character of the family to which she belonged, and the wickedness of the people with whom... read more

Good out of evil. The whole of this miserable story has its place in the development of the kingdom of God. No alliance can be true and safe which is not upon the foundation of the Divine covenants. Circumcision without faith is a mere carnal ordinance, working evil. The sin of Shechem was avenged, but it was avenged by the commission of a greater sin by Simeon and Levi. It was not thus that the kingdom of God was to be spread. "Ye have troubled me," Jacob said. And so have all worldly... read more

And Hamor communed (literally, spake ) with them ( i.e. the whole family, or Jacob and his sons), saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for —the root ( חָשַׁק ) signifies to join together, intrans; to be joined together, hence to cleave to another in love (cf. Deuteronomy 7:7 , Deuteronomy 7:10 , Deuteronomy 7:15 ; Deuteronomy 21:11 ); of similar import to the word ( דָּבַק ) employed in Genesis 34:3 , which means to be devotedly attached to any one, as, ... read more

- Dinah’s DishonorThis chapter records the rape of Dinah and the revenge of her brothers.Genesis 34:1-5Dinah went out to see the daughters of the land. The Jewish doctors of a later period fix the marriageable age of a female at twelve years and a day. It is probable that Dinah was in her thirteenth year when she went out to visit the daughters of the land. Six or seven years, therefore, must have been spent by Jacob between Sukkoth, where he abode some time, and the neighborhood of Shekerm,... read more

Genesis 34:10. The land shall be before you That is, in your power, to dwell where you please, and to have the same rights and privileges in it which we have. Get you possessions therein Or take possession in it, that is, in any vacant part of it: use it for pasture or tillage, as you think good, and take the benefit to yourselves. read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Genesis 34:1-31

Back in Canaan (33:18-35:15)From Succoth Jacob later moved with his household across the Jordan River into Canaan itself and settled in Shechem. By buying a piece of land, he gained permanent possession of part of the land God had promised to him and his descendants (18-20; cf. 23:1-20; 28:1-5).When the son of a local headman raped Jacob’s daughter Dinah, the headman suggested to Jacob that his son marry Dinah, and that Jacob’s sons marry the local Canaanite women (34:1-12). Jacob’s sons agreed... read more

"And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her unto him to wife. And make ye marriages with us; give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you. And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein. And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find favor in your eyes and what ye say unto me I will give. Ask me never so much dowry... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Genesis 34:1-17

Here is another instance of a man seeing a woman and taking her for himself (cf. Genesis 6:2).Moses used the name "Israel" here for the first time as a reference to God’s chosen people (Genesis 34:7). The family of Jacob had a special relationship to God by divine calling reflected in the name "Israel" (prince with God). Therefore Shechem’s act was an especially "disgraceful thing" having been committed against a member of the family with the unique vocation (cf. Deuteronomy 22:21; Joshua 7:15;... read more
