Genesis 32:25-28

32:25

could <03201> [that he.]

struck <05060> [touched.]

32:26

Let me ........... let <07971> [Let me go.]

Let me ........... let <07971> [I will not.]

bless <01288> [thou bless.]

32:28

name <08034> [Thy name.]

Israel <03478> [Israel. i.e., a prince of God. as a prince.]

Or, according to the LXX., Vulgate, Houbigant, Dathe, and Rosenmuller, "because thou hast power with God, thou shalt also prevail with men." There is a beautiful antithesis between the two terms, with [Elohim,] {Elohim,} god, the Almighty, with [anashim,] {anashim,} weak, feeble men, as the word imports; seeing thou hast had power with the Almighty, surely thou shalt prevail over perishing mortals.

fought <08280> [power.]

<0582> [with men.]
