Consider the marital dynamics of Jacob\u2019s family. He has four wives. Think about the wives\u2019 relationships with each other and relationships with Jacob. What <\/p>\n<p>is your opinion of the relationships between the wives in this family? What seem to be the advantages\/disadvantages (for men, for women, and for children) of a man <\/p>\n<p>having multiple wives in the particular time\/place in which the narrative takes place? Be specific and detailed in your answers.<\/p>\n<p>2. Who is Inna? What is her relationship to Jacob\u2019s family? Why might she be an important asset to the family?<\/p>\n<p>3. How do Dinah\u2019s mothers react when Jacob announces major changes (moving location, meeting Esau and so on) that affect the entire family? Does Jacob consult <\/p>\n<p>his wives or ask their opinion? What does Jacob seem to expect from his wives in this regard?<\/p>\n<p>4. When Dinah visits her grandmother, Rebecca, she is traumatized by an incident between Rebecca and one of Esau\u2019s daughters, Tabea. According to the narrative, <\/p>\n<p>why did Rebecca react so violently? What do you think was at stake for her?<\/p>\n<p>5. How does Jacob react when he learns about the ceremonial rites for Dinah when she begins to menstruate? Why might he react in such a way? What is at stake <\/p>\n<p>for him as a patriarch? What is the effect on the family, his wives, on Dinah?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>the red tent The questions below are designed to guide and focus your reading through The Red Tent.
