Not illustrated. 1889 Excerpt: ...correspond, but rather luxari), the sinew of the hip undergoing during the wrestling so violent a strain, that Jacob was lamed in consequence. The wrestling having lasted long enough, without Jacob being conquered, the unnamed says, 27a: Let me go, for the day breaketh. But Jacob, divining and feeling that it is a Divine Being whose attack he has had to sustain, keeps hold of the man and cries out, according to Hos. xii. 5, with tears and supplications, 276: I will not let thee go unless thou bless me. Then the marvellous Being says to him, ver. 28: What is thy name? And he said: Jacob. The question is only preparatory to the communication which follows, ver. 2 9: Thy name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for thou hast fought with Elohim and with men, and hast prevailed.

"W) Hos. xii. 5: he fought, from "nb = rni?, and on the other hand nfe Isa. xxxii. 1, they will rule); but Luth. correctly: For thou hast fought with God and with men. After this oracular saying, Jacob, on his part, also desires to know the name of the wondrous and, as he now the more certainly knows, Divine Being, with whom he has to do, vv. 29, 30: Then Jacob asked and said: Tell me, I pray thee, thy name.
