NASB | Genesis 32:24 Then Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him until daybreak. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 32:24 So Jacob was left alone, and a Man [came and] wrestled with him until daybreak. |
Bible Question (short): Why does God wrestle with Jacob? |
Question (full): Can anyone help clarify this unusual verse. It seems that Jacob is wrestling with an angel or with God for a matter of hours--and won't "give up" until God blesses him. Why did Jacob start this in the first place? Why does God continue to wrestle? What is the meaning of this verse? |
