Gênesis 37:12 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 37:12

And his brethren went to feed their father's flock in
Shechem.
] Very probably some considerable time after the telling of the above dreams; it was usual to remove flocks from place to place for the sake of pasturage; and sometimes at a great distance, as Shechem was from Hebron, where Jacob now dwelt, said F9 to be about sixty miles; but this is not so much to be marvelled at as the place itself, whither they went, for though Jacob had bought a parcel of a field in this place, ( Genesis 33:19 ) ; which might be a reason for their going thither to feed their father's flocks in his own field; yet it was the place where they had committed a most outrageous action in destroying all, the males there, and therefore might fear the inhabitants of the neighbouring cities would rise upon them and cut them off.

Gênesis 37:12 In-Context

10 Quando o contou ao pai e aos irmãos, o pai o repreendeu e lhe disse: “Que sonho foi esse que você teve? Será que eu, sua mãe, e seus irmãos viremos a nos curvar até o chão diante de você?”
11 Assim seus irmãos tiveram ciúmes dele; o pai, no entanto, refletia naquilo.
12 Os irmãos de José tinham ido cuidar dos rebanhos do pai, perto de Siquém,
13 e Israel disse a José: “Como você sabe, seus irmãos estão apascentando os rebanhos perto de Siquém. Quero que você vá até lá”.“Sim, senhor”, respondeu ele.
14 Disse-lhe o pai: “Vá ver se está tudo bem com os seus irmãos e com os rebanhos, e traga-me notícias”. Jacó o enviou quando estava no vale de Hebrom.Mas José se perdeu quando se aproximava de Siquém;
