He Strives With God.
Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Jun 10, 2024 (message contributor)
A bit of an aside, I can remember when I have pulled a few all night jobs out of necessity back in my power distribution days when a fault would require repairing, nothing like a 24 plus hour day to exhaust you. Lack of sleep is never a good thing, but in Jacob’s case it led to a change in the man who was named Jacob or deceiver and became blessed and as a result re-named Israel; meaning “he strives with God” or “God strives.”
