translationNotes

  • Hamor and Shechem his son continue to talk to the city elders.
  • Only on this condition...as they are circumcised - "Only if every man among us is circumcised, as the men of Israel are circumcised, will they agree to live among us and unite with us as one people"
  • Will not their livestock and their property - all their animals be ours? - all their animals be ours?** - Shechem uses a question for emphasis. Alternate translation: "All of their animals and property will be ours!" (See: en:ta:vol1:translate:figs_rquestion)
