from Verse by Verse · host Life, Hope & Truth

Tom Clark discusses Genesis 32:24-28—“Then Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestled with him until the breaking of the day. Now when He saw that He did not prevail against him, He touched the socket of his hip; and the socket of Jacob’s hip was out of joint as He wrestled with him. And He said, ‘Let Me go, for the day breaks.’ But he said, ‘I will not let You go unless You bless me!’ So He said to him, ‘What is your name?’ He said, ‘Jacob.’ And He said, ‘Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have struggled with God and with men, and have prevailed.”🔗 Check out our Learning Center for all kinds of helpful resources—we’ve got video series, booklets, study guides, infographics and more: https://lifehopeandtruth.com/learning-center/📆 Verse by Verse releases every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
