Connection with the revenge of Dinah’s brothers
Genesis 34 points to Jesus, who suffered the worst wrong ever done and answered it by trusting His Father to judge. Peter wrote, "When they heaped abuse on Him, He did not retaliate; when He suffered, He made no threats, but entrusted Himself to Him who judges justly" (1 Peter 2:23). On the night He was arrested He told Peter, "Put your sword back in its place" (Matthew 26:52).
