Dinah Gets Into Trouble

DO KNOW who Dinah is going to visit?  She is going to see some of the girls who live in the land of Ca'naan.  Would her father be happy about this? To help answer this question, try to remember what Abraham and Isaac thought about the women in Ca'naan. 

Did Abraham want his son Isaac to marry a girl from Ca'naan?  No, he did not. Did Isaac and Re-bek'ah want their son Jacob marry a Ca'naan girl? No, they did not. Do you know why? 

It was because these people in Ca'naan worshiped false gods.  They were not good people to have an husbands and wives, and they weren't good people to have as close friends with these Ca'naan girls.
