Genesis 32-34

Well, it's been a long time since Jacob saw his brother, Esau.  If you remember, Jacob stole Esau's blessing just before fleeing and Esau declared that he wanted to kill Jacob.  Well, they were about to meet and Jacob is afraid.  So, he divides his camp thinking that at least one could escape if the other was attacked.  Also, He sends gifts ahead in hopes to appease Esau.

That night, he takes everything he owns and sends it across the ford of Jabbok, "and Jacob was left alone".  All alone there, he wrestles with a man until daybreak.  The man touches Jacob's hip and puts it out of joint.  Even still, Jacob refuses to let the man go until he blesses him.  The man blesses Jacob and gives him a new name, Israel.  This man he wrestles with is God, for he names the place Peniel, saying "For I have seen God face to face, and yet my life has been delivered".

So, Jacob meets Esau and Esau is happy to see his brother.  They argue about the gifts, but Esau finally accepts them.  Esau goes back to Seir and Jacob goes to Succoth.  What I find weird is why it sounds like Jacob intended to go to Seir with Esau, but then seems to just go to Succoth without telling him?  Apparently, we read later in chapter 36 that because the land could not support both Esau and Jacob, they separated.

Moving on, we read about Dinah, the only daughter of Jacob that is mentioned.  There might be others, but we wouldn't know how many to be exact.  Anyway, a man named Shechem the son of Hamor the Hivite rapes Dinah, but then falls in love with her.  He wants her as his wife and goes with his father to get her.  However, Jacob's sons (I'm guessing Simeon and Levi mainly) only agree to giving their sister to them if they all get circumcised.  Shechem and Hamor happily agree.  However, while they and all their people are still in pain from the circumcision, Simeon and Levi go and kill them all and plunder all their goods.  This displeases Jacob, but Simeon and Levi only think it right for what Shechem did to Dinah.
