God Forgives
God is not like people.
When you abuse someone, they grow distant from you.
Because you hurt them.
God cannot be hurt.
He weathers the storms of rage.
He stays steady and firm like the Rock of Gilbralter.
Stay close to God.
Have God on your side.

Jacob's 12 Tribes and Dinah
12 Sons of Jacob = 12 Tribes of Israel
The Bible is patriarchal. In the Old Testament, women were considered property. And men inherited land. Jacob fathered 13 children from 4 women. 12 were boys and 1 was a girl. Her name was Dinah.
Jacob's Ladder - Jacob is renamed Israel.
The 12 sons inherited the promised land, which composes the country of Israel.
What happened to Dinah? - Gen 34
