I Have Seen God Face to Face — Genesis 32:27–32
And he said unto him,
What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
And he said,
Jacob.
And he said,
Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for thou hast striven with God and with men, and hast prevailed.
And Jacob asked him, and said,
Tell me, I pray thee, thy name.
And he said,
Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name?
And he blessed him there.
GEN 32:27–29
And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for, said he,
I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
And the sun rose upon him as he passed over Penuel, and he limped upon his thigh.
GEN 32:30–31
Therefore the children of Israel eat not the sinew of the hip which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day: because he touched the hollow of Jacob's thigh in the sinew of the hip.
