Genesis 33:2

33:2 He put the servants and their children in front, with Leah and her children behind them, and Rachel and Joseph behind them. ¹ 

Genesis 34:28-29

34:28 They took their flocks, herds, and donkeys, as well as everything in the city and in the surrounding fields. ²  34:29 They captured as plunder ³  all their wealth, all their little ones, and their wives, including everything in the houses.

¹ sn This kind of ranking according to favoritism no doubt fed the jealousy over Joseph that later becomes an important element in the narrative. It must have been painful to the family to see that they were expendable.

² tn Heb “and what was in the city and what was in the field they took.”

³ tn Heb “they took captive and they plundered,” that is, “they captured as plunder.”
