He is identified as a Hivite and the father of Shechem, a prince of the land. Hamor's narrative is primarily found in <a href="/bsb/genesis/34.htm">Genesis 34</a>, where he plays a central role in the events surrounding the defilement of Dinah, the daughter of Jacob and Leah.<br><br><b>Biblical Account</b><br><br>Hamor is first introduced in <a href="/genesis/33-19.htm">Genesis 33:19</a>, where it is mentioned that Jacob purchased a parcel of land from the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, for a hundred pieces of silver. This transaction established a connection between Jacob's family and the inhabitants of the land.<br><br>The more detailed account involving Hamor occurs in <a href="/bsb/genesis/34.htm">Genesis 34</a>. Shechem, Hamor's son, saw Dinah and "took her and lay with her by force" (<a href="/genesis/34-2.htm">Genesis 34:2</a>). Deeply infatuated with Dinah, Shechem desired to marry her and spoke to his father, Hamor, to arrange the marriage. Hamor approached Jacob and his sons to negotiate the union, proposing intermarriage between their peoples and offering generous terms, including the sharing of land and resources (<a href="/genesis/34-8.htm">Genesis 34:8-10</a>).<br><br>Jacob's sons, however, were outraged by the violation of their sister and deceitfully agreed to the marriage on the condition that all the males in Hamor's city be circumcised. Hamor and Shechem agreed to this condition, and Shechem did not delay in fulfilling it because of his love for Dinah (<a href="/genesis/34-18.htm">Genesis 34:18-19</a>).<br><br>Tragically, while the men of the city were still in pain from the circumcision, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brothers, took their swords and attacked the city, killing all the males, including Hamor and Shechem (<a href="/genesis/34-25.htm">Genesis 34:25-26</a>). They then took Dinah from Shechem's house and plundered the city.<br><br><b>Cultural and Theological Significance</b><br><br>Hamor's account is often examined for its themes of justice, revenge, and the complexities of human relationships. The narrative highlights the cultural practices of the time, such as the importance of family honor and the practice of circumcision as a covenantal sign. The actions of Simeon and Levi, while driven by a desire to avenge their sister, are later condemned by Jacob for their violence and deceit (<a href="/genesis/49-5.htm">Genesis 49:5-7</a>).<br><br>Hamor's involvement in the events of <a href="/bsb/genesis/34.htm">Genesis 34</a> also serves as a backdrop to the broader narrative of the patriarchs and their interactions with the peoples of Canaan. The incident underscores the tensions between the descendants of Abraham and the inhabitants of the land, foreshadowing future conflicts and the eventual conquest of Canaan by the Israelites.<br><br><b>Legacy</b><br><br>Hamor's legacy is primarily tied to the tragic events surrounding Dinah and the subsequent actions of Jacob's sons. His name is often associated with the city of Shechem, which later becomes a significant location in Israel's history. Despite the violent outcome, the account of Hamor and Shechem remains a poignant reminder of the complexities of human sinfulness and the need for divine guidance in matters of justice and reconciliation.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Hamor</span><p>an ass; clay; dirt<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Hamor</span><p>(<i>an ass</i>), a Hivite who at the time of the entrance of Jacob on Palestine was prince of the land and city of Shechem.

His son Shechem founded the city of that name which Simeon and Levi destroyed because of his crime in the matter of Dinah, Jacob's daughter (<a href="/genesis/34-20.htm">Genesis 34:20</a>). Hamor and Shechem were also slain (ver. 26). <a name="isb" id="isb"></a><div class="vheading2">International Standard Bible Encyclopedia</div><span class="encheading">HAMOR</span><p>ha'-mor (chamor, "an ass"; Emmor): Hamor was the father of Shechem from whom Jacob bought a piece of ground on his return from Paddan-aram for one hundred pieces of silver (<a href="/genesis/33-19.htm">Genesis 33:19</a>), and the burial place of Joseph when his body was removed from Egypt to Canaan (<a href="/joshua/24-32.htm">Joshua 24:32</a>). "The men of Hamor" were inhabitants of Shechem, and suffered a great loss under Abimelech, a prince over Israel (<a href="/judges/9-22.htm">Judges 9:22-49</a>). Dinah, Jacob's daughter, was criminally treated by Hamor, who requested her to be given to him in marriage, in which plan he had the cooperation of his father, Shechem. The sons of Jacob rejected their proposition and laid a scheme by which the inhabitants of the city were circumcised, and in the hour of helplessness slew all the males, thus wreaking special vengeance upon Hamor and his father Shechem. It is mere conjecture to claim that Hamor and Dinah were personifications of early central Palestinian clans in sharp antagonism, and that the course of Simeon and Levi was really the treachery of primitive tribes. Because the word Hamor means "an ass" and Shechem "a shoulder," there is no reason for rejecting the terms as designations of individuals and considering the titles as mere tribal appellations.<br><br>Byron H.
