Questions Covered in This Episode:

  • What happens to Dinah?

  • How do her brothers respond?
  • Are you making too big of them referring to him as Jacob?
  • Is there a significance to them using circumcision as part of the agreement?
  • How does Jacob respond to Simeon and Levi’s actions?
  • In Genesis 35 it begins with God telling Jacob to...?
  • What is found in Genesis 35:9-15?
  • What is happening with the renaming of Jacob, again?
  • Should we pay any attention to verse 22?
  • Who gets more attention in the book of Genesis: Abraham, Issac, Jacob, or Joseph?
  • The story of Joseph occupies so much of the attention of Genesis but his story doesn’t resonate through the rest of the Bible story in the way that Abaraham does. Does Joseph come up more in the Bible?
  • Do you think there is significance to the fact that there are two key figures in the Gospels that are named Joseph?
  • We hear that Joseph has a special place in Jacob’s eyes: Why is that?
  • He gets a special coat, a robe of many colors. Tell us about that.
