IPV Awareness Month 4: The Rape of Dinah

In Genesis 34 Jacob's daughter was raped by a neighboring prince. While Biblical scholars for centuries have debated whether Dinah was raped, or caught in a love affair, their discussion is very similar to our ongoing debates concerning consent, force, and oppression. The recent #MeToo movement not only calls us to awareness that males have, from the beginning of time, continually overpowered our sisters while silencing their voice. Moral leadership is needing in both ancient and modern times.
