The Rape of Jacob's Daughter Part 1
Series Genesis
Chapter 34 is about the rape of Jacobs daughter and the aftermath, and then the circumstances that flow from it. Ask yourself, why is this in the Bible? Why did God record this story in His book. We know it happened, of course, but everything that happened didn't get recorded. Why is this passage here? That's always the question we should have in our minds as we study a passage. It really gets to, "What is the purpose of the passage?".
Well, one of the questions I really like to think about when i'm studying to teach, or read the Bible period, is, why is this passage here? Another way of saying this is, "What is the purpose of the passage?".
When God inspired the author to put this in the Bible, what was the desired impact on the lives of God's people? That's asking an application question...
