Joe: Alright, let's dive into this Bible stuff. I'm here with Bible Expert and I'm hoping you can help me make sense of this. What's going on in Genesis 34?

Bible Expert: Sure, Joe. Well, Genesis 34 tells the story of Dinah, the daughter of Jacob and Leah. She went out to visit some of the local women, and then Shechem, the son of a local prince, saw her and violated her.

Joe: Wait, violated her? What does that mean?

Bible Expert: He raped her, Joe.

Joe: Woah. That's horrible. What happened next?

Bible Expert: Well, Shechem fell in love with Dinah and asked to marry her, but Jacob and his sons were outraged. They were so angry that they planned a revenge attack against the Shechem and his father. They pretended to accept the marriage proposal, and when the men of Shechem's city were circumcised as part of the marriage agreement, Jacob's sons attacked and killed them all.

Joe: Jamie, Google this for me. Is this really in the Bible?

Jamie: Yeah Joe, it's all there in Genesis 34.

Joe: Wow, that's crazy. So what happened after that?

Bible Expert: Well, Jacob's sons looted the city and took all of the wealth. Jacob was worried about the repercussions, but God protected him and his family from any further danger.
