This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Gen_32:27 And he said unto him, What [is] thy name? And he said, Jacob.
Ver. 27. What is thy name?] As if the angel should say, Thou art such a fellow as I never met withal. Titles of honour are not worthy of thee. Kneel thou down "Jacob," rise up "ISRAEL": Thou art a conqueror, if ever any were. Factus et teipso fortior, et Creatore tuo superior. O quam hic honos non est omnium! {a}
