Jacob´s wrestle at Jabok

Publication at Protestant Theological Faculty |
2007

Abstract

The thesis of the article is, that ?until daybreak? (Gen 32,25) and (Gen 25,26; 32,21) express the same idea. Jacob was born ?afterward? but he did not accept it.

When he wrestles ?after? the daybreak, he reaches his own position, by which the initial point for the reconciliation with Esau is constituted (Gen 33,10).
