Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him. See also: Psalms 91:11Hebrews 1:42 Kings 6:16-17When he saw them, Jacob said, “This is God’s army.” He called the name of that place Mahanaim. See also: 2 Samuel 2:8Joshua 21:38Joshua 5:14Jacob sent messengers in front of him to Esau, his brother, to the land of Seir, the field of Edom. See also: Genesis 25:30Joshua 24:4Genesis 33:14He commanded them, saying, “This is what you shall tell my lord, Esau: ‘This is what your servant, Jacob, says. I have lived as a foreigner with Laban, and stayed until now. See also: 1 Peter 3:6Genesis 27:37Ecclesiastes 10:4I have cattle, donkeys, flocks, male servants, and female servants. I have sent to tell my lord, that I may find favor in your sight.’” See also: Genesis 33:8Genesis 33:15Genesis 33:11The messengers returned to Jacob, saying, “We came to your brother Esau. He is coming to meet you, and four hundred men are with him.” See also: Genesis 33:1Genesis 27:40-41Amos 5:19Then Jacob was greatly afraid and was distressed. He divided the people who were with him, along with the flocks, the herds, and the camels, into two companies. See also: Genesis 35:3Proverbs 2:112 Corinthians 1:8-10He said, “If Esau comes to the one company, and strikes it, then the company which is left will escape.” See also: Matthew 10:16Genesis 33:1-3Jacob said, “God of my father Abraham, and God of my father Isaac, the LORD, who said to me, ‘Return to your country, and to your relatives, and I will do you good,’ See also: Genesis 31:42Psalms 34:4-6Genesis 31:3I am not worthy of the least of all the loving kindnesses, and of all the truth, which you have shown to your servant; for with just my staff I crossed over this Jordan; and now I have become two companies. See also: Psalms 18:35Genesis 24:271 Timothy 1:12-15Please deliver me from the hand of my brother, from the hand of Esau; for I fear him, lest he come and strike me and the mothers with the children. See also: Psalms 59:1-2Matthew 6:13Proverbs 18:19You said, ‘I will surely do you good, and make your offspring as the sand of the sea, which can’t be counted because there are so many.’” See also: Genesis 28:13-15Hebrews 6:17Matthew 24:35He stayed there that night, and took from that which he had with him a present for Esau, his brother: See also: Proverbs 18:16Genesis 43:11Proverbs 21:14two hundred female goats and twenty male goats, two hundred ewes and twenty rams, See also: Deuteronomy 8:18Job 42:12Job 1:3thirty milk camels and their colts, forty cows, ten bulls, twenty female donkeys and ten foals. He delivered them into the hands of his servants, every herd by itself, and said to his servants, “Pass over before me, and put a space between herd and herd.” See also: Genesis 33:8-9Isaiah 28:26Matthew 10:16He commanded the foremost, saying, “When Esau, my brother, meets you, and asks you, saying, ‘Whose are you? Where are you going? Whose are these before you?’ See also: Genesis 33:3Then you shall say, ‘They are your servant, Jacob’s. It is a present sent to my lord, Esau. Behold, he also is behind us.’” See also: Genesis 32:4-5He commanded also the second, and the third, and all that followed the herds, saying, “This is how you shall speak to Esau, when you find him. You shall say, ‘Not only that, but behold, your servant, Jacob, is behind us.’” For, he said, “I will appease him with the present that goes before me, and afterward I will see his face. Perhaps he will accept me.” See also: Job 42:8-9Proverbs 21:141 Samuel 25:17-35So the present passed over before him, and he himself stayed that night in the camp. He rose up that night, and took his two wives, and his two servants, and his eleven sons, and crossed over the ford of the Jabbok. See also: Deuteronomy 3:16Deuteronomy 2:37Joshua 12:2He took them, and sent them over the stream, and sent over that which he had. Jacob was left alone, and wrestled with a man there until the breaking of the day. See also: Hosea 12:3-5Ephesians 6:12Luke 13:24When he saw that he didn’t prevail against him, the man touched the hollow of his thigh, and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was strained as he wrestled. See also: 2 Corinthians 12:7-9Hosea 12:3-4Genesis 32:32The man said, “Let me go, for the day breaks.” Jacob said, “I won’t let you go unless you bless me.” See also: Hosea 12:4Psalms 115:12-132 Corinthians 12:8-9He said to him, “What is your name?” He said, “Jacob”. He said, “Your name will no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have fought with God and with men, and have prevailed.” See also: Revelation 2:17Genesis 35:10Isaiah 62:2-4Jacob asked him, “Please tell me your name.” He said, “Why is it that you ask what my name is?” So he blessed him there. See also: Job 11:7Judges 13:16-18Isaiah 9:6Jacob called the name of the place Peniel; for he said, “I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.” See also: Isaiah 6:5Exodus 24:10-11Numbers 12:8The sun rose on him as he passed over Peniel, and he limped because of his thigh. See also: 2 Corinthians 12:7Malachi 4:2Genesis 19:15Therefore the children of Israel don’t eat the sinew of the hip, which is on the hollow of the thigh, to this day, because he touched the hollow of Jacob’s thigh in the sinew of the hip. See also: 1 Samuel 5:5
