I'm amazed by this Red Tent story. Dinah..a cherished child in her tribe, and she falls in love with a prince. And her over zealous brothers killed him. She was not raped, it was consent is written he loved her and spoke tenderly to her. They were in love. And then her brothers...the same ones who threw her bother Joesph into the pit; betrayed her, I like the author's depiction of what happened to Dinah. We don't know because after reviewing Genesis 34..we don't know what happened to Dinah after this. I think the author brings a good account of what happened to Dinah. Though we don't really know what happened to Dinah after Genesis 34. It doesn't say. At least the author brought Dinah the respect of remembering Dinah's life. It is not stated in the bible. Some Hebrew texts elaborate thar Dinah became a Canaanite woman, and some Hebrew suggests she had a daughter that married Joseph. We know not...this author brings a good subject to view...Women of the Bible. and Dinah was a very special woman. Dinah a sibling sister who are the 12 tribes of Israel...their sister. loved and special sister. I admire this author who remembered her. And helps us to remember who is Dinah and what happened to her. As Joseph whose story is remembered in Genesis. But the bible doesn't tell us what happened to Dinah?
