# the sons of Jacob
2017-06-24 00:15:21 +00:00
It is implied that no one attacked anyone in Jacob's family. But two of the sons, Simeon and Levi had attacked the Canaanites relatives of Shechem after he seized and slept with Jacob's daughter. Jacob was afraid they would seek revenge in [Genesis 34:30](../34/30.md). AT: "Jacob's family" or "Jacob's household" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])
