Löydetty 694 Tulokset: Descendants Of Jacob
Jacob named the place Peniel, "Because I have seen God face to face," he said, "yet my life has been spared." (Genesis 32, 31)
At sunrise, as he left Penuel, Jacob limped along because of his hip. (Genesis 32, 32)
That is why, to this day, the Israelites do not eat the sciatic muscle that is on the hip socket, inasmuch as Jacob's hip socket was struck at the sciatic muscle. (Genesis 32, 33)
Jacob looked up and saw Esau coming, accompanied by four hundred men. So he divided his children among Leah, Rachel and the two maidservants, (Genesis 33, 1)
When Esau looked about, he saw the women and children. "Who are these with you?" he asked. Jacob answered, "They are the children whom God has graciously bestowed on your servant." (Genesis 33, 5)
Then Esau asked, "What did you intend with all those droves that I encountered?" Jacob answered, "It was to gain my lord's favor." (Genesis 33, 8)
"No, I beg you!" said Jacob. "If you will do me the favor, please accept this gift from me, since to come into your presence is for me like coming into the presence of God, now that you have received me so kindly. (Genesis 33, 10)
But Jacob replied: "As my lord can see, the children are frail. Besides, I am encumbered with the flocks and herds, which now have sucklings; if overdriven for a single day, the whole flock will die. (Genesis 33, 13)
Esau replied, "Let me at least put at your disposal some of the men who are with me." But Jacob said, "For what reason? Please indulge me in this, my lord." (Genesis 33, 15)
Jacob journeyed to Succoth. There he built a home for himself and made booths for his livestock. That is why the place was called Succoth. (Genesis 33, 17)
Having thus come from Paddan-aram, Jacob arrived safely at the city of Shechem, which is in the land of Canaan, and he encamped in sight of the city. (Genesis 33, 18)
The plot of ground on which he had pitched his tent he bought for a hundred pieces of bullion from the descendants of Hamor, the founder of Shechem. (Genesis 33, 19)
