Is There a Balance in the Present?

Jacob was kind of an arrogant crooked deceitful character maybe over impressed with his own ability he thought it was pretty amusing to pull a fast trick or two on his brother then he ran off which is not all that brave. Then he got walloped a lot and perhaps learned something and then when he came back you know he was a different person so the story gets rough again Jacob settles in shalom or shalom dina goes looking around for friends Shechem the son of Hamor lays with her and then wants her for his wife shechem put the cart before the horse let's say the men of Hamor are circumcised they agree to do so that turns out to be a big mistake
