Meanwhile, Jacob set up a stone pillar at the place where God had talked with him and poured out a drink offering on it. <br><br>What features these two covenants is that in the former one Jacob claimed, “…of all that you give me I will give you a tenth” (Ge 28: 22) and in the latter covenant God gave Jacob a new name—Israel, meaning “May God prevail.”<br><br>The new name aimed to remind Jacob of the ups and downs in life. No one can be freed from trials. We suffer, struggle, but God will ultimately prevail.Yi-tinghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11527493509807782006noreply@blogger.com
