Young ladies be careful. Particularly when you are relocating to college or for a career. I know young people yearn to make friends. But pray over the prospective friends you will make. I decree Psalms 91 over all of the young people out there. Abide in God's Safety... Rest under His Shadow... So many people are full of demons & setting traps for others by drugging them & taking advantage of them in a carnal way. Be mindful of your surroundings... I love you all...

My name is Jeremiah, lately I’ve been feeling very weak on my journey I’ve been falling to lust and wedsites through my journey here and there I’m in real need of a prayer i don’t know if it’s a demon attacking me or not But I feel like Im close to losing my salvation please if someone can pray for me right now PLEASE🙏🏾
I prayed for you. The Lord is your strong tower you can flee to. Your salvation does not depend on an easy walk. Its Jesus who is holding on to you tightly. May the Lord give you His peace which surpasses all understanding. I would advice you to seek counsel in pastoral care. I would also advice you to read: 'At the altar of sexual idolatery' by Steve Gallagher. It has helped many. God bless you.
Yes many years I struggled too. Through all the trials I've come to Truth of it all and has set me free. Pornography or Lust has no end. It's very ugly. One weapon I used when under attack with lust especially thoughts or arrows fired at me I bind the demon's up in Jesus name and throw them into the fires of hell. Just surrender this sin and other sins to God ask Him to clean your heart out. Keep pressing toward God there is no other direction. God hates us remaining in our sins. Even though we fall from sin we don't remain in our sin. We get back up ask The Lord Jesus to purge this sin of pornography, confess it all to purify you and get back up. Fall , pray repent, get back up. We ask The Father for strength, love, and guidance. Keep the press. ❤️🙏
Romans 12:19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath , for it is written: It is mine to avenge ; I will repay; says the LORD. Lord Jesus Christ is truly our Lord and Savior 🙏🏼❤️🕊Repent, believe in the Gospel, Be Born Again
Amen. I needed to hear this lesson and prayer. There are many spiritual warfare in my family currently. Please pray for my daughter, the devil is filling her head with lies and trying to turn her against me. Thanks or your prayers
People never talked about Jacobs hate for his kids with leah. He didn't care for those kids as much as he loved Joseph and Benjamin. So when dinah was raped the only people who cared were her brothers, sad favouritism of kids is still going on right now.
Yes. Jacob was not innocent for even his name supposedly means deceiver which is why God renamed him Israel. But I will tell you on his deathbed he had to have regretted the way he treated his kids because he poetically described each one of them in his dying breath while also practically cursing them. But Dinah was not there so that means she already died.
I sought revenge on the man I married after finding out several MAJOR thing he had been hiding from me. The truth is, it didn't make me feel better, it only made me equally guilty. Revenge is a two-way sword. It doesn't cut one way.
How to get back in Christ. I am ruined and see this was horrible. Please Satan trying to kill me and I wasn't SPIRITUALLY battling and now feel reprobate and sinful. In this world system. Please pray.
Yes, I found it's always better to just forgive, learn from it, move on & leave it in The Lord's Hands. It doesn't always go well for those people that have wronged me, I'm more grateful to The Lord for giving me the strength to forgive because when things go south in their life, I have a clear & peaceful conscious😇 Jesus Christ Loves Us All, Hallelujah, Amen❣️🙌
Amen, what a complex story, seeing how lust and revenge can bring about such horror, this video is a powerful message, God will fight All your battles and vindicate you in due season, Amen 🙌❤️
Very sad yet very encouraging and informative. I came here just to increase my knowledge abt the word of God. im young and struggling with my faith and anxiety. Please Pray for me God bless u
Vengeance is mine saith the Lord, I will repay. We forget the significance of the karma in life. Leave the wicked to themselves and they will self destruct.
This is some powerful stuff and a great message. Hopefully I remember this if ever there comes a day where I feel the need to seek vengeance. There's nothing I hate more than evil going unpunished. I just have to put my trust in God that He will be the one to carry out the retribution.
I'm the same way. I have a difficult time forgiving anyone who does extreme evil to me or anyone close to me... I'm very fair just not very merciful. I can admit this...
@@whitneybentakadongo6248 If you knew Jesus you would be merciful, and you wouldn't be so quick to say "I'm fair and kind" Remember from where you come from, repent and stick to Jesus who said : "If you don't forgive men their offenses, your Father in Heaven will NOT forgive you your offenses either." Get to know Him, get to hear HIS VOICE!
Can you kindly say a prayer for my self and family? My immediate family and siblings nieces and nephews are under attack from the enemy. Seems like something dark is trying to harm and separated the family. Please pray for my family once was full of joy, unity and humbleness. Thank you so much for your time and prayer 🙏 God bless you all.
Praying for you all. Remember Jesus came to bring the ⚔️ not peace. This may be a sign that it’s time y’all choose sides. Not meaning in a bad way. My family is going through this and because they won’t come together in love we are being bought together to mourn. Some of them are not willing to get it together because God has called and their heart are hardened. I made the decision to accept God’s offer and follow Christ. You do your part and continue to pray for them I will definitely keep y’all in our family’s prayer and please do the same for my family. Stay encouraged and fight the good fight. Blessings and prays to you and your family.
That is called a Family Curse.. And a Family Curse can only be put by some one with the same Blood of that Family.. Hence why it is called a Family Curse
You have to use your authority over the evil spirit and come against it. After you get rid of it loose the spirit of health and peace over him instead and submit your prayer to the Lord.
@@justelder6192 forgive my ignorance, I don't understand the theory of a "Family Curse". Who or what has the power to curse a family? Christian believers can pray for situations and for protection from the evil one. Lord bless and God Speed.
After Jacob's son's betrayal of Joseph, we see that, one by one, each one of the brothers as not being worthy of the birth right. This also included Dinah as Jacob could have given her to a worthy man in marriage and then adopted her son as his heir. But Shechem's actions ended this possibility. Only when Judah offered up his own life, to protect Joseph's Brother Benjamin, would Jacob find his true heir. But even then that road to maturity, for Judah, was not a pretty one, but one full of the grace of God.
Dinah is copied from the Latin Diana/Greek Artemis. Her father is Zeus, another name for Jacob. The Greek Leto, Latin Latonia, Lycian Lada became Leah (darkness) the first wife of Jacob.
@@jamesneketia5991 The constellations are depicted as people throughout the bible. Jacob is partially copied from Hercules the son of Jupiter. Hercules is also a sun deity. Recommend "The Origin of all Religious Worship," by Charles F. Dupuis.
@@Usernumber777 The five sons of Shem/Sem make up the winter season or Scorpio thru Pisces. These same five signs is the five months/150days of the flood myth.
Jacob was deceitful and deceit continued through the generations. Shechem was horrible but the fact that Dinahs brothers killed a whole city was terrible. So much evil. So sad. There are always consequences for our wrong choices. Shechems whole family died or were taken captive because of what he did but Jacob's sons and future generations also paid the consequences for their actions too.
so good the lesson for everyones life to be cautious of the situation around in the light of Gods word, thank you I loved listening till the end👍glory be GOD 💥
I have broken so many Comandments, many times l have cried... l pray for the BLOOD of Jesus to cover my sins and GOD to forgive me fully, Sin is NOT FUN, l hope l can keep someone from making the mistakes l have made!! Please do the righteous thing in every area of your life you won't regret it l promise.
Jacob throughout Genesis was shown time and time again to be uncaring to much of his family, first in how he treated his brother Esau, and how he deceived his father, and also how he never really showed much love for any of his kids he had with Leah. So it’s unsurprising that he did nothing to help after his daughter was raped
One of most tragic events in the Bible. Uncontrolled anger, also plotting, and carrying out revenge doesn't get anyone anywhere, but leads to more serious problems in the end. The entire history of mankind is full of people doing this very thing. Only God, through His own son Jesus Christ, can save us from our sins and human frailties. Nothing else!
If this was the Calvary Chapel Solano w/Pastor Prudhomme~ his sermon 01/14 ~this was so excellent! Pastor Prudhomme “separated the bone from the marrow”! I’m certain many pastors do that all across the country but I have not heard one that good for quite awhile. You hit it out of the ballpark sir!
There are theories though, that the issue wasn't as cut and dried as being presented. It's possibly believed that Dinah's visits to the city were a regular occurrence. And that she and Shechem were actually lovers. His proposal to her was sincere, as demonstrated by his willingness to endure the circumcision rites. Dinah's brothers objected to their sister marrying to a foreign man, even a prince (sure, it was *their* land, but the principle remained). They used her circumstance as an excuse and opportunity to weaken and pillage pezzirites. And Jacob's concern wasn't for his daughter, or the death of innocent people. But how the incident would make him look bad. I bring this up, not to sully the story. But to remove pedestals and rose colored glasses. Removing the image of Dinah as an innocent maiden does nothing to lessen the impact of the story. Whether willing, or unwilling, the fornication was wrong. Plus it was with (presumably) a non-believer. Something forbidden by God. And though Simeon and Levi used the incident as an excuse to enact revenge, it was only that. An excuse. Remember, Jacob's family wasn't exactly the Salt of the Earth. Jacob himself was a schemer. Rachel, his favorite wife, stole her father's idols. And hid them under her camels saddle as the family left to find their own place to live. And let's not forget what Dinah's brothers did to their little brother Joseph. Pointing out these flaws doesn't lessen the story. It makes it more relatable. By making the characters more like you and me.
The problem is, you speculate motives of people removed by thousands of years from modern culture, which means the margin for error is astronomical. Dinah may have been involved with Shechem, but I very seriously doubt it. He had become infatuated with her and in my humble opinion, did rape her, and was also more than willing to marry the young girl. Satan knew the promise of Messiah was made to this exclusive line of humanity and probably thought if he violated the daughter [through someone under his influence], that he could destroy YHVH’s plans to redeem humanity. There is something far darker and more serious than simple teenage angst and romance here. Realizing the evil intention way beyond the scope of even something as foul as rape, Jacob and his some were righteously & rightfully incensed.
That's your interpretation, but Discernment given to us CHRISTIANS is by the power of God. Let me ask what would you do if a love one of yours was rape?
@@kiwiburciaga I will answer your question as a fellow christian with an equal; does the possiblity of Dinah being raped justify in your mind her brothers tricking Shechem and his people to perform the circumcision rites in order to murder all the men, capture the women as slaves, and plunder the city? Remember, Shechem was acting on good faith when he agreed to their terms. He was sincere in his wish to marry Dinah. It was her brothers who acted deceptively. The point I am making with this is not to disparage Dinah. It is to warn against the folly of placing the situation on a high pedestal, or view through rose-colored glasses. You should not assume that because story is written in the Bible, it should be held up as an example of right action. This is a pitfall that many fall into. Instead, read your Bible fully, and prayerfully. And understand there are many stories that tell the *wrong* way of resolving a conflict.
Except that it does not matter if Dinah needed to run errands in the city. He TOOK her. She did not give herself. He forced himself on her..Bad way to start any relationship. How could she ever respect him?
1 Corinthians 15:1-4 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; 2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. 3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Thankyou, 💜🙏🔥 Lord in this story lust on revenge has no Authority for what is ahead of me, where God has a plan and a purpose in what he wants me to give. All we need is his divine grace to continue what he has a sign me to continue his grace to live on his Amazing Plan. Amen 🙏🔥.
Reading this scripture had me very perplexed. I've been thinking on it all for a few days. There are so many lessons in this scripture. Thank you for giving some clarity. One question left: why did scripture say that Shechem was more honorable than the men in his family?
Its a stity that a bigger sin to avenge the original sin is still a sin that cannot be undone, whereas its better to have not sinnec but once done isnt undone by that of another
What a very powerful, selfish and deceitful story. One to learn from. God's will is ALWAYS THE BEST WAY... Many innocent men died in that village for selfish actions of one man forcing himself on a pure woman. Jacob's sons added evil upon evil instead of forgiveness and love for their fellowman. The true victims in this story are, Dinah, Jacob and the innocent men in the village that lost their lives in a brutal and vengeful manner. Grandma's Angel's
I always thought the worst part of the story was that Dinah's brothers objectified her even more than Shechem. Whether she was raped or not, Shechem loved her, would care for her, and give her children. After losing her virginity, a woman of that time would've had no other prospects. Her brothers didn't care. They used her as an object to fulfill their violence and bloodlust. She likely died a lonely, childless old maid because of them.
Lust is not love.. if shechem loved her,he would not have done what he did. However, I do get what you mean. There are lessons to be learnt from this story
Bethel is two words of beth (house) and El (God aka Aries at spring equinox). El is from the twisted horns of the ram aka Zeus/Jupiter Amen. Amen can also be written as Amun, Amon, and Ammon. See depiction of Alexander as the ram head god. The 12 tribes (12 constellations) make up the wheel of Ezekiel aka the zodiac which is always turning. Shechem is the constellation Taurus and Dinah is the Virgo constellation. Levi is the band/bond of stars connecting the fishies in Pisces. Simeon is the southern fish.
Thank you, it was very good. You give us good perspectives on this story. It does amaze me that two men were able to go and kill all the men of the city. I couldn't say how badly they were afflicted. Today we get circumcised as babies. We don't remember any pain, and we are taken care of by our loving parents. We now have new insights to this story about Dinah. Thank you again
Dinah is copied from the Latin Diana/Greek Artemis. Her father is Zeus, another name for Jacob. The Greek Leto, Latin Latonia, Lycian Lada became Leah (darkness) the first wife of Jacob.
@@qw2ps4 There was a lot of copying, even from the Egyptians, Sumerians, Persians, and Hindus. One example is Mabog (winter) who is copied from the Hindu Maha Bhaga. You will find the Hindu/Persian Manticore in Isaiah 9.14-15. This is where Israel (summer) is described as having the head of a lion (Leo) and tail of a liar (Scorpio).
10:43 exactly why the Judge were made by Moses with the help of Jethro's wisdom. Romans 13:1 Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. 1 Peter 2:13-14 Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority: whether to the emperor, as the supreme authority, or to governors, who are sent by him to punish those who do wrong and to commend those who do right.
Proverbs 31:8-9 in the Bible says, "Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute. Speak up and judge fairly; defend the rights of the poor and needy". 
I saw this as a movie several years ago. And it is also written in the Apocrypha/ Hidden books. If you have a Dollar General nearby there is another Awesome movie that's from the Apocrypha, called Risen. With Joseph Fiennes starring in it. An epic Biblical story of the Resurrection as told thru the eyes of an unbeliever. His task as a Tribune from Roman, is to hunt down the "body" of Jesus,post crucifixion,or perhaps Jesus Himself!!!
@@kennedyudoh9059 I just know I saw it about 8 yrs., ago on TBN, but it was a current movie. I will try to research it in the morning. Peace and Blessings.
I consider revenge justified. If you can eliminate a threat before they can harm again that's God's way of saying "revenge is mine" by using the tools God provided on earth. For example, in this case of rape, do you allow the rapist to go unpunished on earth where their actions unchecked will most likely result in repeat behaviour? Or, are we misinterpreted what God said about revenge? I think what God was saying is that revenge needs to be equal, not used as a "punitive" example. If you kill my dog, do I kill yours back? No, that's not revenge because the other dog isn't guilty of the owners behavior. Revenge should be focused only on the perpetrator, not those guilty of association unless that association has conspired to be party to the crime.
How barbaric people use to be, and all for one woman. Wasn't enough they could have just took their sister back and left... no they had to take it out on everyone else who had nothing to do with it. This is much more than just a revenge case, it's a case of stupidity and a very stupid way of society to live. Stuff like this is how wars get started... humans can be wretched things.
i agree but you have to remember that 'woman' was their minor sister who was raped. Its tragic but if your sister was raped you would be filled with rage too.
Totally, but respectfully disagree. I think the story is telling us how vile the sin of rape / molestation actually is. I think it is telling us that as a society, whatever society we are in, it is our duty to deal with our evil doers, lest we be judged and punished along with them. I think Jacob's sons were justified in smiting not only Shechem for his sins. They were right in smiting his father for not punishing his son. They were right to smite the men who would condone such a thing. Dinah was given the only fair justice she could be given; the knowledge that her rapist could never touch her or anyone ever again. That is what sexual deviants deserve.
The war against Troy was started over one case of abduction. Although it was voluntary, it was STILL abduction knowing the woman was already hitched to someone else. A matter of no thanks but you have to stay, would have prevented a war. It doesn't stop with just the guilty and never does, the innocent of many pays for it further down the road than we even realize. How would you like it if you got killed by a revenge case, knowing in those last moments you had nothing to do with it?
I agree with you but I also question her brother's reasons. I saw them doing this out of pride, not out of defending their sister. But maybe I'm just reluctant to turn a young woman's (who was probably still a child by today's standards) pain into some kind of fable to get a moral from. I can't even imagine what the rest of her life had been like. Her whole community knowing what was done to her, the horror she survived turned into a warning for other families' daughters, probably being gossiped about, people probably wondering if she had invited or wanted it, being rejected by other men because now she was ruined and defiled. Why do we need this woman's pain to know that rape is a disgusting, horrible thing to do to another person and should never be justified or excused? How would we feel if she was our sister? Or daughter? Would we want her used this way? We are just raping her memory.
I think they were right to kill Shechem but what about the innocent men who had nothing to do with it? I mean they literally took all the other women captive after killing their husbands. What do you think they intended to do with those women? I honestly respect them for caring about their sister and I am frustrated about Jacob's silence before. But they went a little too far.

before finding God's will we cannot love properly nor have strong faith... first is that we cannot love God nor our fellow neighbors rightousely.. or have Faith in God that we can overcome everything but the first step is to forgive everything and everyone in our lives.. no matter the deed that way we will also know that God forgives us too.. and we will receive the power to love through the spirit of God so we can over come every hill.. ultimately we will have a strong faith and Greed, Lust, Glutony, Envy, Jealousy, Anger and more will flee from us... Forgiveness will conquer all of them.. and we will be terrified to come to the dark places again
did someone see *"The Red Tent" movie?* (it's about Dinah and about "her's 2022 point of wiew'') All Christians *(who read the Bible)* should see that movie and be awaken for what's comming !

This testimony tells me why God told all of Israel on their way to Mt. Sinai Not too Intermarry with the Canaanites. God tried to teach The Israelites during their Mass Exodus from Bondage in Egypt. God introduces these three distinct Commands for The Newly Free People. 1. They were to be a Peculiar Treasure amongst The Nation's: in Layman's term's They were to Be in The World; of Man but, Not Act in the way's of The World. The Israel's destiny were to be quite Coast Guard to The Lost who no longer knew and worshiped The Living God The Ancient of Day's (Dan 7:10). So that by The Time Christ arrived the whole world would of been in Heaven sooner as we know that didn't work out that Plan. 2. They were to be A Holy People: "My Holy People" Thus saith The Lord; God repeats this Statement straight through too Exodus all the way to Deuteronomy. It does harken back to the 1st Lesson for Israel to be A Peculiar Treasure amongst The Nation's. 3. Do Not intermarry with the Canaanites; neither give your daughter's away to be their wives, nor your Son's to Their Daughter's. Thanks to this video reminding of The Rape of Dinah, that was most likely one of the Reasons as to Why God said No, to such Union's between Canaan and Israel. The other reason for this command given to Israel by God is because Believers as we all know are Not too Marry Un-believer's or Be Not Unequally Yoked as The Bible says. Another thing how does anyone know God didn't sanction the execution? All Israel's Son's did is show a foreshadowing of what was too come 440 year's later in The Book of Number's, Joshua, and Judge's. People forget that God did instruct Israel to essentially drive The Inhabitants living in Canaan too Extinction. Now If The People in Canaan renounced their Idolatry and turned instead to worshipping The Living God of Abraham then this would grant Them a reprieve from Judgement by God. In other Word's They would Live. The argument from the presenter in this Bible Video is that Hamor and his Son Scheceme were the only guilty party not the other people. I believe in The Bible and what The Bible says but a lot in the Bible is Speculation. Despite The time of Genesis & Jubilees Period that has come and gone, not a lot has changed with humanity regarding The Art of Looking Away (accept in George Floyd's case nobody could Look away). I remember in addition to the Anti-Drug's campaign that aired on Radio OR T.V. there were these other ad campaigns that played out as well on T.V. about not looking the other way when a woman is being beaten by an intimate partner. That Domestic Violence is every bodies problem a few voices declare not my problem by not getting involved. The point is from how The Prince; the Son of The King Hamor behaved towards Dinah Raping Her he'd probably had done that sort of thing before. Numerous Time's and numerous Time's The Hivites collectively tragically looked the other way. Think of the case in 1964, New York City Kitty Genovese just going home not bothering any body after getting off from work get's stabbed by a crazed killer looking to kill someone that Night. The story that caused and up roar is that people heard her cries for Help, "Help me He's Killing Me, Somebody please Help Me, he's killing me, and guess what Nobody did a thing to help her, and she was killed because nobody wanted to get involved Granted He did carry the Knife from Hell. Still It's New York somebody would have had an gun to blow his knees out or frankly Kill Him. Nobody did a thing. There's only so much that's shared about Dinah's Rape in The Bible; to me it was kind of like it was written as and After thought. Sort of like Oh by the way this happened in Scheceme with The Hivites. Deuteronomy chapter 22, addresses the crime of Rape God calls for the offender to be Executed so as too purge this Evil from The Nation meaning Israel. It seems how some Judicial Systems view violent crimes Rape by Law is separated from Homicides; which is classified as Sex Crimes. God doesn't ever separate Crime like Rape its an abomination because just because a person is left alive does not mean they haven't died. So God views Rape as Murder which is Why in Deuteronomy chapter 22 He does say The Rapist is to be Executed (stoned to Death). An Nothing was too happen to The Victim of the Crime. Also unless someone has ever had the experience of Domestic Violence, Rape or the ever growing Crime against Children Incest, or Stalking should be cautious on a subject pertaining too Rape. I mean God sending Israel 440 year's later too take on those same Hivites clearly God hadn't forgotten the crime against Dinah either
There was a ' seed war ' going on ( Genesis 3: 15 ) Abraham made his eldest servant to swear to not take a wife of the Canaanites for his son Isaac. Isaac charged Jacob not to take a wife of the daughters of Canaan. Canaanites were carriers of the ' seed of the serpent ' from Genesis 3: 15 and Genesis 6. The line of Abraham was to be kept separate from the line of Canaan. Sometimes it appeared that some men in the line of Abraham didn't quite get it, while the women did understand. Isaac was ready to bless Esau with the birthright and put him in the lineage to the Messiah. Esau may have been a carrier of the ' seed of the serpent ' that came through the lineage of Shem and Shem's wife from before the flood. Rebecca understood that could not be allowed and helped to cheat Esau out of the birthright. Jacob didn't seem to get it either as it was his mother that prompted him to go along with her plan to cheat Esau out of the blessing. Judah who through Jacob became the lineage to the Messiah also didn't seem to get it and married a Canaanite wife who then produced three Canaanite sons. Judah picked the wrong wife for himself but then picked the right wife for his sons. The problem was his sons were already Canaanites and could not be of the lineage to the Messiah. It took Ta'mar to recognize the situation and bypass the Canaanite seed by causing herself to be coupled directly to Judah . Dinah was not in the lineage to the Messiah but still a daughter of Israel and not supposed to be coupling to the Canaanite bloodline . Jacob was once again fine with it but it took his sons Sim'e-on and Le'vi whose brother of the same mother was of the lineage to Messiah to recognize and not let it happen.
No, she just wanted her own son to have birthright and not Esau, where you fullas get your bullshit from, there's nothing of what you are saying in the bible

Something about this story really leapt off the page when I was a kid. If I can make a suggestion... I don't know if you guys use head phones when editing, but the volume levels on the music kept changing.
Deep story. But I have always been disturbed by the (overkill) violence in the old testament, for those people of the book after God's heart. And the moments in which they moved (in their words) by the command of God to execute his will. So much blood was shed.
Exactly. But that’s what also shows the beauty of Jesus. He took the time to see how death truly affects humans since we aren’t just scared of our own but of the ones around us as well. Even when hearing about the death of a stranger makes us sympathetic if they have family.

Young ladies be careful. Particularly when you are relocating to college or for a career. I know young people yearn to make friends. But pray over the prospective friends you will make. I decree Psalms 91 over all of the young people out there. Abide in God's Safety... Rest under His Shadow... So many people are full of demons & setting traps for others by drugging them & taking advantage of them in a carnal way. Be mindful of your surroundings... I love you all...
Everyone is not your friend that's for dam sure....if you have just ONE true friend when you die count yourself lucky...

But in My case I always imagine him ending this lesson by saying "And here she comes now."
No, he didn't it was to serious of a subject at the time...but he would say this funny remark to me whenever he saw her walk up to knock on our front screen door to call on me.,
Which was:

Hey, it's tht snotty lit'l kid Frm across the street...at the door again.(sometimes he'd add) Doesn't she kw where her house is?... She'd be inside by then & smile as she gv him a huff & puff, maybe a hard step, .then say: Oh be quiet you or Scoff & say Shush Up & giggle. Of course she was probably 18 by then. So it wz Never disrespectful. I myself 16...

Just surrender this sin and other sins to God ask Him to clean your heart out. Keep pressing toward God there is no other direction.
God hates us remaining in our sins.
Even though we fall from sin we don't remain in our sin. We get back up ask The Lord Jesus to purge this sin of pornography, confess it all to purify you and get back up. Fall , pray repent, get back up.
We ask The Father for strength, love, and guidance.
Keep the press. ❤️🙏

People never talked about Jacobs hate for his kids with leah. He didn't care for those kids as much as he loved Joseph and Benjamin. So when dinah was raped the only people who cared were her brothers, sad favouritism of kids is still going on right now.
Yes. Jacob was not innocent for even his name supposedly means deceiver which is why God renamed him Israel. But I will tell you on his deathbed he had to have regretted the way he treated his kids because he poetically described each one of them in his dying breath while also practically cursing them. But Dinah was not there so that means she already died.

This is some powerful stuff and a great message. Hopefully I remember this if ever there comes a day where I feel the need to seek vengeance. There's nothing I hate more than evil going unpunished. I just have to put my trust in God that He will be the one to carry out the retribution.

Imagine one wrong action can cause revenge that claim so much inocent lives. We are not perfect but let's see sin as an enemy so we can ovoid them.
After Jacob's son's betrayal of Joseph, we see that, one by one, each one of the brothers as not being worthy of the birth right. This also included Dinah as Jacob could have given her to a worthy man in marriage and then adopted her son as his heir. But Shechem's actions ended this possibility. Only when Judah offered up his own life, to protect Joseph's Brother Benjamin, would Jacob find his true heir. But even then that road to maturity, for Judah, was not a pretty one, but one full of the grace of God.
Dinah is copied from the Latin Diana/Greek Artemis. Her father is Zeus, another name for Jacob. The Greek Leto, Latin Latonia, Lycian Lada became Leah (darkness) the first wife of Jacob.

Just wow. There was so much to unpack. There are many great lessons to learn from this situation.
Sometimes it's possible to take your heartfelt feelings too far. It can be very intense and too much for people who are not familiar with your Lord.
Jacob was deceitful and deceit continued through the generations. Shechem was horrible but the fact that Dinahs brothers killed a whole city was terrible. So much evil. So sad. There are always consequences for our wrong choices. Shechems whole family died or were taken captive because of what he did but Jacob's sons and future generations also paid the consequences for their actions too.

I'm alarmed that her brothers cared more about Dinah getting violated than her own father Jacob did.
Jacob throughout Genesis was shown time and time again to be uncaring to much of his family, first in how he treated his brother Esau, and how he deceived his father, and also how he never really showed much love for any of his kids he had with Leah. So it’s unsurprising that he did nothing to help after his daughter was raped
@@jared9915keep quiet
One of most tragic events in the Bible. Uncontrolled anger, also plotting, and carrying out revenge doesn't get anyone anywhere, but leads to more serious problems in the end. The entire history of mankind is full of people doing this very thing. Only God, through His own son Jesus Christ, can save us from our sins and human frailties. Nothing else!

There are theories though, that the issue wasn't as cut and dried as being presented. It's possibly believed that Dinah's visits to the city were a regular occurrence. And that she and Shechem were actually lovers. His proposal to her was sincere, as demonstrated by his willingness to endure the circumcision rites. Dinah's brothers objected to their sister marrying to a foreign man, even a prince (sure, it was *their* land, but the principle remained). They used her circumstance as an excuse and opportunity to weaken and pillage pezzirites. And Jacob's concern wasn't for his daughter, or the death of innocent people. But how the incident would make him look bad.
I bring this up, not to sully the story. But to remove pedestals and rose colored glasses. Removing the image of Dinah as an innocent maiden does nothing to lessen the impact of the story. Whether willing, or unwilling, the fornication was wrong. Plus it was with (presumably) a non-believer. Something forbidden by God. And though Simeon and Levi used the incident as an excuse to enact revenge, it was only that. An excuse.
Remember, Jacob's family wasn't exactly the Salt of the Earth. Jacob himself was a schemer. Rachel, his favorite wife, stole her father's idols. And hid them under her camels saddle as the family left to find their own place to live. And let's not forget what Dinah's brothers did to their little brother Joseph.
Pointing out these flaws doesn't lessen the story. It makes it more relatable. By making the characters more like you and me.
Always love to see comments such as this.
The problem is, you speculate motives of people removed by thousands of years from modern culture, which means the margin for error is astronomical. Dinah may have been involved with Shechem, but I very seriously doubt it. He had become infatuated with her and in my humble opinion, did rape her, and was also more than willing to marry the young girl. Satan knew the promise of Messiah was made to this exclusive line of humanity and probably thought if he violated the daughter [through someone under his influence], that he could destroy YHVH’s plans to redeem humanity. There is something far darker and more serious than simple teenage angst and romance here. Realizing the evil intention way beyond the scope of even something as foul as rape, Jacob and his some were righteously & rightfully incensed.
That's your interpretation, but Discernment given to us CHRISTIANS is by the power of God.
Let me ask what would you do if a love one of yours was rape?
@@kiwiburciaga I will answer your question as a fellow christian with an equal; does the possiblity of Dinah being raped justify in your mind her brothers tricking Shechem and his people to perform the circumcision rites in order to murder all the men, capture the women as slaves, and plunder the city? Remember, Shechem was acting on good faith when he agreed to their terms. He was sincere in his wish to marry Dinah. It was her brothers who acted deceptively.
The point I am making with this is not to disparage Dinah. It is to warn against the folly of placing the situation on a high pedestal, or view through rose-colored glasses. You should not assume that because story is written in the Bible, it should be held up as an example of right action. This is a pitfall that many fall into. Instead, read your Bible fully, and prayerfully. And understand there are many stories that tell the *wrong* way of resolving a conflict.
Except that it does not matter if Dinah needed to run errands in the city. He TOOK her. She did not give herself. He forced himself on her..Bad way to start any relationship. How could she ever respect him?

Oh VERY SWEET REVENGE. LOVE THE STORY VERY MUCH. THEY PAY THE RIGHT AND VERY HIGH PRICE.
Its a stity that a bigger sin to avenge the original sin is still a sin that cannot be undone, whereas its better to have not sinnec but once done isnt undone by that of another
What a very powerful, selfish and deceitful story. One to learn from. God's will is ALWAYS THE BEST WAY... Many innocent men died in that village for selfish actions of one man forcing himself on a pure woman. Jacob's sons added evil upon evil instead of forgiveness and love for their fellowman. The true victims in this story are, Dinah, Jacob and the innocent men in the village that lost their lives in a brutal and vengeful manner. Grandma's Angel's
I always thought the worst part of the story was that Dinah's brothers objectified her even more than Shechem. Whether she was raped or not, Shechem loved her, would care for her, and give her children. After losing her virginity, a woman of that time would've had no other prospects. Her brothers didn't care. They used her as an object to fulfill their violence and bloodlust. She likely died a lonely, childless old maid because of them.
Whoa! I didn't think about that. Probably explains why Dinah isn't mentioned again in the Bible.
Lust is not love.. if shechem loved her,he would not have done what he did. However, I do get what you mean. There are lessons to be learnt from this story

I consider revenge justified. If you can eliminate a threat before they can harm again that's God's way of saying "revenge is mine" by using the tools God provided on earth. For example, in this case of rape, do you allow the rapist to go unpunished on earth where their actions unchecked will most likely result in repeat behaviour? Or, are we misinterpreted what God said about revenge? I think what God was saying is that revenge needs to be equal, not used as a "punitive" example.
If you kill my dog, do I kill yours back? No, that's not revenge because the other dog isn't guilty of the owners behavior. Revenge should be focused only on the perpetrator, not those guilty of association unless that association has conspired to be party to the crime.
This is what I need.
How barbaric people use to be, and all for one woman. Wasn't enough they could have just took their sister back and left... no they had to take it out on everyone else who had nothing to do with it. This is much more than just a revenge case, it's a case of stupidity and a very stupid way of society to live. Stuff like this is how wars get started... humans can be wretched things.
Right
I agree
Maybe it's a top of the line woman.
Society is still barbaric and every woman isn't the same.
i agree but you have to remember that 'woman' was their minor sister who was raped. Its tragic but if your sister was raped you would be filled with rage too.

Totally, but respectfully disagree. I think the story is telling us how vile the sin of rape / molestation actually is. I think it is telling us that as a society, whatever society we are in, it is our duty to deal with our evil doers, lest we be judged and punished along with them. I think Jacob's sons were justified in smiting not only Shechem for his sins. They were right in smiting his father for not punishing his son. They were right to smite the men who would condone such a thing. Dinah was given the only fair justice she could be given; the knowledge that her rapist could never touch her or anyone ever again. That is what sexual deviants deserve.
The war against Troy was started over one case of abduction. Although it was voluntary, it was STILL abduction knowing the woman was already hitched to someone else. A matter of no thanks but you have to stay, would have prevented a war. It doesn't stop with just the guilty and never does, the innocent of many pays for it further down the road than we even realize. How would you like it if you got killed by a revenge case, knowing in those last moments you had nothing to do with it?
I agree with you but I also question her brother's reasons. I saw them doing this out of pride, not out of defending their sister. But maybe I'm just reluctant to turn a young woman's (who was probably still a child by today's standards) pain into some kind of fable to get a moral from. I can't even imagine what the rest of her life had been like. Her whole community knowing what was done to her, the horror she survived turned into a warning for other families' daughters, probably being gossiped about, people probably wondering if she had invited or wanted it, being rejected by other men because now she was ruined and defiled. Why do we need this woman's pain to know that rape is a disgusting, horrible thing to do to another person and should never be justified or excused? How would we feel if she was our sister? Or daughter? Would we want her used this way? We are just raping her memory.
I think they were right to kill Shechem but what about the innocent men who had nothing to do with it? I mean they literally took all the other women captive after killing their husbands. What do you think they intended to do with those women? I honestly respect them for caring about their sister and I am frustrated about Jacob's silence before. But they went a little too far.

before finding God's will we cannot love properly nor have strong faith...
first is that we cannot love God nor our fellow neighbors rightousely..
or have Faith in God that we can overcome everything
but the first step is to forgive everything and everyone in our lives.. no matter the deed
that way we will also know that God forgives us too.. and we will receive the power to love
through the spirit of God so we can over come every hill.. ultimately we will have a strong faith
and Greed, Lust, Glutony, Envy, Jealousy, Anger and more will flee from us... Forgiveness will
conquer all of them.. and we will be terrified to come to the dark places again

Thank you
I lusted and sought revenge and now I am in the worst pain. I committed adultery after finding my Husband did. Now I was my marriage back
Pray and Repent for u and your husband God will fix everything ,fast if you can God will make a way my sister
@@jeonmerci-dj3vs how do I fast?
@@sandiebeach0926 we all fast as guided by the Holy Spirit pray about it first and fast but Repent first ,for like two days it can be a 24 hr fast but I'd advise a beginner to fast from overnight to 6 pm but your fasting aim should be Repentance because Repentance draws God nearear to us
Repent and plead to God for forgiveness and Repent for your husband and ask the Holy Spirit to give a heart and the grace to forgive your husband and pray the same for him coz we can't on our own but God gives us the grace ,trust God bear the Fruits of the Holy Spirit as a wife ,talk to him be patient but pray no matter what test you see coz when you go into prayer and fasting Satan will see it and harden his heart so that you lose Faith but when you see it becoming worse that's when you know that the prayer is working don't stop seeking God ,pray that God brings him back and with persistence and perseverance God will hear your prayer and trust him
🕎 A spot lit story of unhinged lust,vengeance and non 👁️for 👁️ hysterical justice, resulting in patriarchal genocide.
This tragic,specified narrative is rarely taught ,(that I can recall) in nearly 40 years of seeking🕯️.
Ohhh my GOD,this is my name.
This testimony tells me why God told all of Israel on their way to Mt. Sinai Not too Intermarry with the Canaanites.
God tried to teach The Israelites during their Mass Exodus from Bondage in Egypt.
God introduces these three distinct Commands for The Newly Free People.
1. They were to be a Peculiar Treasure amongst The Nation's: in Layman's term's They were to Be in The World; of Man but, Not Act in the way's of The World.
The Israel's destiny were to be quite Coast Guard to The Lost who no longer knew and worshiped The Living God The Ancient of Day's (Dan 7:10).
So that by The Time Christ arrived the whole world would of been in Heaven sooner as we know that didn't work out that Plan.
2. They were to be A Holy People: "My Holy People" Thus saith The Lord; God repeats this Statement straight through too Exodus all the way to Deuteronomy.
It does harken back to the 1st Lesson for Israel to be A Peculiar Treasure amongst The Nation's.
3. Do Not intermarry with the Canaanites; neither give your daughter's away to be their wives, nor your Son's to Their Daughter's.
Thanks to this video reminding of The Rape of Dinah, that was most likely one of the Reasons as to Why God said No, to such Union's between Canaan and Israel.
The other reason for this command given to Israel by God is because Believers as we all know are Not too Marry Un-believer's or Be Not Unequally Yoked as The Bible says.
Another thing how does anyone know God didn't sanction the execution?
All Israel's Son's did is show a foreshadowing of what was too come 440 year's later in The Book of Number's, Joshua, and Judge's.
People forget that God did instruct Israel to essentially drive The Inhabitants living in Canaan too Extinction.
Now If The People in Canaan renounced their Idolatry and turned instead to worshipping The Living God of Abraham then this would grant Them a reprieve from Judgement by God.
In other Word's They would Live.
The argument from the presenter in this Bible Video is that Hamor and his Son Scheceme were the only guilty party not the other people.
I believe in The Bible and what The Bible says but a lot in the Bible is Speculation.
Despite The time of Genesis & Jubilees Period that has come and gone, not a lot has changed with humanity regarding The Art of Looking Away (accept in George Floyd's case nobody could Look away).
I remember in addition to the Anti-Drug's campaign that aired on Radio OR T.V. there were these other ad campaigns that played out as well on T.V. about not looking the other way when a woman is being beaten by an intimate partner.
That Domestic Violence is every bodies problem a few voices declare not my problem by not getting involved.
The point is from how The Prince; the Son of The King Hamor behaved towards Dinah Raping Her he'd probably had done that sort of thing before.
Numerous Time's and numerous Time's The Hivites collectively tragically looked the other way.
Think of the case in 1964, New York City Kitty Genovese just going home not bothering any body after getting off from work get's stabbed by a crazed killer looking to kill someone that Night.
The story that caused and up roar is that people heard her cries for Help, "Help me He's Killing Me, Somebody please Help Me, he's killing me, and guess what Nobody did a thing to help her, and she was killed because nobody wanted to get involved Granted He did carry the Knife from Hell.
Still It's New York somebody would have had an gun to blow his knees out or frankly Kill Him. Nobody did a thing.
There's only so much that's shared about Dinah's Rape in The Bible; to me it was kind of like it was written as and After thought.
Sort of like Oh by the way this happened in Scheceme with The Hivites.
Deuteronomy chapter 22, addresses the crime of Rape God calls for the offender to be Executed so as too purge this Evil from The Nation meaning Israel.
It seems how some Judicial Systems view violent crimes Rape by Law is separated from Homicides; which is classified as Sex Crimes.
God doesn't ever separate Crime like Rape its an abomination because just because a person is left alive does not mean they haven't died.
So God views Rape as Murder which is Why in Deuteronomy chapter 22 He does say The Rapist is to be Executed (stoned to Death).
An Nothing was too happen to The Victim of the Crime.
Also unless someone has ever had the experience of Domestic Violence, Rape or the ever growing Crime against Children Incest, or Stalking should be cautious on a subject pertaining too Rape.
I mean God sending Israel 440 year's later too take on those same Hivites clearly God hadn't forgotten the crime against Dinah either
I like it, thanks.
There was a ' seed war ' going on ( Genesis 3: 15 )
Abraham made his eldest servant to swear to not take a wife of the Canaanites for his son Isaac.
Isaac charged Jacob not to take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.
Canaanites were carriers of the ' seed of the serpent ' from Genesis 3: 15 and Genesis 6.
The line of Abraham was to be kept separate from the line of Canaan.
Sometimes it appeared that some men in the line of Abraham didn't quite get it, while the women did understand.
Isaac was ready to bless Esau with the birthright and put him in the lineage to the Messiah. Esau may have been a carrier of the ' seed of the serpent ' that came through the lineage of Shem and Shem's wife from before the flood.
Rebecca understood that could not be allowed and helped to cheat Esau out of the birthright. Jacob didn't seem to get it either as it was his mother that prompted him to go along with her plan to cheat Esau out of the blessing.
Judah who through Jacob became the lineage to the Messiah also didn't seem to get it and married a Canaanite wife who then produced three Canaanite sons. Judah picked the wrong wife for himself but then picked the right wife for his sons. The problem was his sons were already Canaanites and could not be of the lineage to the Messiah. It took Ta'mar to recognize the situation and bypass the Canaanite seed by causing herself to be coupled directly to Judah .
Dinah was not in the lineage to the Messiah but still a daughter of Israel and not supposed to be coupling to the Canaanite bloodline . Jacob was once again fine with it but it took his sons Sim'e-on and Le'vi whose brother of the same mother was of the lineage to Messiah to recognize and not let it happen.
No, she just wanted her own son to have birthright and not Esau, where you fullas get your bullshit from, there's nothing of what you are saying in the bible
Canaan is the constellation Scorpio. in the plural, the Canaanites are Scorpio thru Pisces (the winter season).
What does that have to do with the price of tea in China?
And where in the world would you ever get what zodiac sign Canaan was?
@@michaelszczys8316
The four sons of Ham (summer) are Leo, Virgo, Libra, and Scorpio. Canaan, the fourth son aka Scorpio is also used as Lud, a son of Shem/Sem aka Latin Pluto when the year is divided into seven months/summer and five months/winter. The five sons of Shem are Scorpio thru Pisces.
Michael Szczys how do you get "Esau may have been the seed of the serpent" when he was the twin brother of Jacob???
Something about this story really leapt off the page when I was a kid. If I can make a suggestion... I don't know if you guys use head phones when editing, but the volume levels on the music kept changing.
Deep story. But I have always been disturbed by the (overkill) violence in the old testament, for those people of the book after God's heart. And the moments in which they moved (in their words) by the command of God to execute his will. So much blood was shed.
Exactly. But that’s what also shows the beauty of Jesus. He took the time to see how death truly affects humans since we aren’t just scared of our own but of the ones around us as well. Even when hearing about the death of a stranger makes us sympathetic if they have family.
Thank you for this
