בנותיו ובנות בניו. פירש"י בנות בניו זו שרח בת אשר ויוכבד בת לוי. וקשיא דבניו ניחא אלא בנותיו מאן נינהו שהרי לא נכנסו מבנותיו למצרים כי אם דינה שהתאומות מתו. ושמא י"ל דכלותיו קרי בנותיו. אך קשיא לי מאי דכתיב כל נפש בניו ובנותיו שלשים ושלש דהתם ליכא למימר כלותיו שהרי לא נמנו כדכתיב מלבד נשי בני יעקב ושמא ר"ל דינה ובת לוי ובנות בנים הרי הם כבנות כך נ"ל וכן משמע למבין מתוך פירש"י: בנותיו ובנות בניו, “his daughters and the daughters of his sons;” Rashi explains this line as referring to Serach, daughter of Asher, and Yocheved, daughter of Levi. This sounds peculiar as it does not explain who Yaakov’s “daughters (pl)” were. We have been told only about one daughter Dinah, born for him by Leah. She was the only daughter listed as descending to Egypt. The twin daughters born to him had all died before that time. Leah’s descendants numbered 33 as stated explicitly. (verse 15) It is possible to include daughters-in-law, but those were not included in the count. My personal problem with this verse are the words (author writing) כל נפש בניו ובנותיו שלושים ושלש, “the total number of souls his sons and daughters were thirty three.” (verse 15) It is not possible to understand this number as including any daughters-in-law, as these were not counted, seeing that they are specifically excluded in verse 26 as not having been included in the count. Maybe that what Rashi had in mind was to teach us that granddaughters were considered like daughters.
