God Renames Jacob

Genesis 35

I pray blessings on you as you read.

(v. 1) "Then God said to Jacob, 'Go to Bethel and live there. Make an altar there. I am the God who appeared to you when you were fleeing from your brother Esau.' " (v. 10) "God said to him, 'Your name is Jacob. You will no longer be called Jacob, but your name will be Israel.' So he named him Israel."
