Jacob only had one named Dinah in Scripture - Dinah. Dinah's story, as told in Chapter 34, is full of violence and full of silence.

This week Ellen reviews the commandment that calls into question how we use God's name.

Jacob has exhausted all his options, all his tricks, all his manipulations. He has once again divided all he has in hopes of salvaging something if Esau is approaching with evil intent. He is alone but before he can take a seat, he is jumped. He will immerge from that fight with a scar and a new name but that is nothing to what will come next.
