EP 132: The Wrong Way To Propose Marriage: Dinah’s Story

We are continuing our stories in the bible about people who have suffered abuse and trauma. We are looking into the Jacob's background and the violation of his daughter Dinah by one of the neighboring Hivite men. How did her family respond? Did they believe and protect her? Was the way that Dinah's brothers handled the situation sanctioned by God or not? We also find out why you should keep your word and honor your commitments. This story shows how God will use even flawed people to further his kingdom.

Welcome. Come on in. How are you doing today? I hope that you enjoyed the study of Jeremiah last week. I know it was a lot to take in. There's a lot about Jeremiah to learn. You just did an overview last week. So many nuggets to chew on. So I hope that you learned something. I hope that encouraged you to read Jeremiah for yourself and learn some additional things. [00:00:34] Now, this week I was doing some Bible reading in Genesis, and I happen to notice that the story before was the story about Dinah one of Jacob's daughters. And so I read it and I decided that I would do that lesson this week because it's short [00:01:00] and to the point. And so that's what we're gonna talk about today's, Dinah story.

I already mentioned that I had problems with my web hosting and I'm in the process of changing to a new web host. I'm still having trouble with transferring, but I was two weeks late getting out episodes. This week it was just a matter of exhaustion. [00:01:36] Working 10 hour days now and coming home and trying to edit the podcast and get it posted on time, and I was just so tired. I was falling asleep on the couch. My husband's poking me. It's. 9: 30, 10 o'clock at night. And up until, you know, the [00:02:00] last couple weeks, I haven't had any problems posting on time, but I just wanna let you know I'm not going anywhere. [00:02:07] Nothing is wrong, it's just technical difficulties. And then I'm just tired. Uh,
