Dinah (dî'nah), judged, acquitted, or avenged. The daughter of Jacob and Leah. Genesis 30:21. The history of her visiting the daughters of the heathen inhabitants of the land, of her defilement by Shechem, and of the treacherous and bloody revenge taken by her brothers Simeon and Levi, are recorded in Genesis 34:1-31. Nothing more is certainly known of her; she probably accompanied her family into Egypt. Genesis 46:15.
