Description: A contemporary Jewish look at the daughter of Jacob and her brothers' revenge.
Dinah went out amongst the people of the land and Shchem seduced her. Shchem was so attracted to Dinah that he ultimately wanted to marry her. Jacob consented because he felt that Shchem was capable of doing teshuvah and it was an opportunity for them to elevate themselves and live according to Jewish law. Shimone and Levi in their outrage determined that Shchem and his people must be obliterated. Their immoral behavior demanded their destruction. Thus Shimone and Levi deceived their father and suggested that Shchem and his people circumcise for the purposes of conversion. However, it was merely a ploy and Shimone and Levi killed them while they were still weak and recuperating from their circumcision.
