    Is there any other scripture pertaining to Jacob and the man he wrestled with. Was this man an angle? Is there any other scripture to back that up.

    Hosea 12:2-6, it is wisdom to search out scripture, many times GOD clarifies His WORD & repeats. Also significant : Genesis 28:17-22, Genesis 32, Genesis 35:1,3, Genesis 35 whole chapter puts together Bethel & Bethlehem & GOD's appearing, Genesis 48:3,7, Exodus 6:3, Isaiah 2:3, Isaiah 41:8, Jeremiah 31:11, Jeremiah 51:19, Micah 4:2, Acts 7:46-48,

    Psalms 146:5,

    James 1:5,

    Hopefully these are helpful in your study

    Sharon.

    Sorry for the misprint, I meant "With the msg being so clear in Genesis 32:24-30 there's no need to seek other scriptures to interpret it."

    God bless.

    Hi Sharon.

    With the msf being so clear in Genesis 32:24-30 there's no need to seek other scriptures to interpret it.

    "And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.

    And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.

    And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.

    And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.

    And he said, THY NAME SHALL BE CALLED NO MORE JACOB, BUT ISRAEL: FOR AS A PRINCE HAST THOU POWER WITH GOD AND WITH MEN, and hast prevailed.

    And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.

    And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: FOR I HAVE SEEN GOD FACE TO FACE, AND MY LIFE IS PRESERVED."

    God bless.
