God Gives Jacob a New Name, Golden Text: Luke 10.-20, , THE LESSON WORD STUDIES. Based on the lexi of the Revised Ver- sion. Jacob in Haran,--~The sojourn of Jacob iy Haran is of importance in our his. torical narratives at this point because of the fact that it was here that his eleven sons, from whom deséended the -iwelve tribes of Israel, were born. Mention is also made of the birth of a daughier, Dinah, 10 Leah, the first and older wife of Jacob. . Jacob's life in: Haran is im- portant also because here. he acquired independent wealth, which later greatly augmented' the inheritance which he re- ceived from his father, Isaac. The ac- count of 'the birth of Jacob's: sons i found in Gen. 29. 31 'to 30. 34, where { meaning of the name of each is ex- plained. 'The names of the eleven sons born in Haran in 'the drder of their birth and the meaning of each name as given in the narrative are as follows: Reuben, meaning See: a son; Sims eon. (Heb. "Shimeon"), meaning he (Jehovah) hath heard ; Levi, meaning a joining or binding ; Judah; meating the celebrated ; © Dan, meaning 'he hath judged ; - Naphlali, meaning my wrest. ling; Gad, meaning fortune; Asher, meaning happiness ; 'Issachar, meshing he will bring reward; Zebulun, meaning habitation ; Joseph meaning adding, or the added one. } | There is an ethical side 10 our narre- tive brought out especially in the mens tion of 'such 'incidents as the struggle of Leah and Rachel for their husband. which illustrates indirectly the evils of polygamy and. the jealousies and rival- ries to which it gives rise. 'The character of Jacob's uncle, Laban, as portrayed in these chaplers 'is anything but athrac- tive. His shrewdness, 'duplicity, and oc: quisiliveness are inherited by his daugh- ters and reflected also in the action of his sister, Jacob's mother. Self-interest and unpardonable deceit are conspicuous Laban's {reals ment of Jacob nalurally has a bearing on our estimate of Jacob's behavior towards ed a . with. him-- A heavenly visitant in. human . form, whose identity 'is not fully revealed lo Jacob, oe !

No more Jacob; bul Israel--As so often in his dealings with his chosen representatives" among 'men, Jehovah emphasizes the special crisis in Jacob's life 'and. the renewal of a. promise of future blessing by a change of name. In this case the change is from. a name meaning "the supplanter" to one indi- cating his successful wrestling with God, and suggestive also of his success in t) approaching éncounter. wih 'Esau. : Striven with God and. with men, and hast prevailed --. Jacob's persevering wrestling in prayer with Jehovah is just ended. But among men he has also per- severed in the past." His contest with Laban has turned out favorable lo him; and - while that with Esau is not yet come {0 an end, still fhe words "hast prevailed" arc words of good omen for the successful outeome of this encounter also, : 5 30.
