  1. One of the modifications that the 72 Chachomim wrote was regarding the posuk כי באפם הרגו איש וכו’ .
    The story in parshas vayishlach clearly states that the sons on Yaakov ovinu killed the men of the town of Shchem so what was gained by the wording in Parshas Vayechi?

    (These questions come up in our daf yomi shiur.)
    Hillel Royde

    • In reality, the residents of Shechem were deserving of their fate (for failing to protect Dina; i.e. not enforcing law and order, as per peirush Ramban)

      Rashi explains that the revision was to clarify that to Yaakov Avinu as well, they were regarded as mere ‘beheimos’ (due to their guilt) and thus not considered an act of killing.
