Genesis 34:27

The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.

Cross-reference

In Genesis 34:2, Shechem's violation of Dinah is the original crime directly cited here as the reason for the plundering.

In Genesis 34:13, the same defilement of Dinah motivates their earlier deception — here it now fuels the plundering of the entire city.

In Genesis 34:31, Simeon and Levi invoke the same wrong — treating Dinah dishonorably — to justify their actions.

Esther 9:10 Contrast

In Esther 9:10, the Jews notably refused plunder after killing Haman's sons — a stark contrast to the looting that occurs here.

Esther 9:16 Contrast

In Esther 9:16, the Jews again kill their enemies but deliberately take no plunder — unlike Jacob's sons, who plunder freely.
