The Story of Dinah examines the intersection of rape culture and
Jewish tradition by tracing over two thousand years of Jewish
commentary on Genesis 34. Using a definition of rape derived from
the Hebrew Bible, Ruit scrutinizes the commentaries on the text for
reflections of what would be deemed "rape myths" today. This book
journeys through time and tradition as it uncovers the evolution of
Jewish thought regarding women, rape, and women who have been
violated. Every period examined, from the biblical account and the
intertestamental writings all the way through to present day,
reveals surprising and powerful insights about Jewish tradition and
its attitudes towards women and sexual violation.
