| | Jacob - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Jacob was a man of might and vision (38:45) and was chosen by God to preach the Message. | | | Jacob or Ya'akov, (יַעֲקֹב "Holder of the heel", Standard Hebrew Yaʿaqov, Tiberian Hebrew Yaʿăqōḇ; Arabic يعقوب Yaʿqūb), later known as Israel (יִשְׂרָאֵל "One Who Has Struggled with God", Standard Hebrew Yisraʾel, Tiberian Hebrew Yiśrāʾēl; Arabic اسرائيل Isrāʾīl) is the third Biblical patriarch. | | | Jacob remained silent about the episode, but later rebuked his two sons for their anger in his deathbed blessing (Genesis 49:5-7). |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Jacob |
| | Jacob's relations with Laban's household form an interesting episode, the details of which are perfectly true to Eastern life and need not be set forth here. | | | Besides blessing him with eleven children, God granted to Jacob a great material prosperity, so that Laban was naturally desirous of detaining him. | | | Passing through Socoth, Jacob first settled near Salem, a city of the Sichemites, and there raised an altar to the God of Israel (xxxiii, 17-20). |

| | Jacob (1) - International Standard Bible Encyclopedia |
| | Jacob now goes to Egypt, but he goes with the express approval of the God of his fathers, and with the explicit assurance that the same Divine providence which ordained this removal (Genesis 50:20) will see that it does not frustrate any of the promises of God. | | | Jacob can say, when he awakes from his dream, "This is the house of 'Elohim," but God says to him in the dream, "I am the God ('Elohim) of thy father" (28:17,13). | | | This feud was occasioned by the fraud that Jacob at Rebekah's behest practiced upon his father and brother, when these two were minded to nullify the clearly revealed purpose of the oracle (Genesis 25:23) and the sanctions of a solemn oath (Genesis 25:33). |
