Genesis 34:31

Gen 34:31 And they said, Should he deal with our sister as with an harlot?

Ver. 31. Should he deal with our sister as with an harlot? ] Why, no: but should you therefore speak so boldly to your father, and deal so cruelly with your confederates; whom you first cheated into a covenant, and then basely butchered, when not able to help themselves? But anger is outrageous, and forethinks not what will follow hereafter, or becomes a man for present. Bridle it therefore. The word harlot is written with a great letter in the original ז , to show with what a courage they spake it. Hebrew Text Note
