E32 NAMES OF THE BIBLE PART 6: JACOB

Shalom, and welcome to part 6 of this series of NAMES OF THE BIBLE. Thus far we have covered a few names: God's personal name,YHWH, ADAM & EVE, NOAH, AVRAHAM, ISAAC and now we will do a study on the name (shem/character), of JACOB, and his role in the narrative. Jacob is an intriguing character in the biblical narrative who experienced a significant amount of hardship throughout his lifetime. And maybe it was because Jacob learned the hard way. There is certainly so much we can learn and glean from studying his character and his role in the narrative.
