Gênesis 32:26 Meaning and Commentary

Genesis 32:26

And he said, let me go, for the day breaketh
This was said that he might seem to be a man that was desirous of going about his business, as men do early in the morning; though the true reason perhaps was, that his form might not be more distinctly seen by Jacob, and much less by any other person: and he said, I will not let thee go except thou bless me;
for by his touching his thigh, and the effect of that, he perceived he was more than a man, even a divine Person, and therefore insisted upon being blessed by him: thus faith in prayer lays hold on God, and will not let him go without leaving the blessing it is pleading for; which shows the great strength of faith, and the efficacy of the prayer of faith with God; see ( Exodus 32:10 ) ( Isaiah 62:7 ) ( James 5:15 James 5:16 ) .

Gênesis 32:26 In-Context

24 E Jacó ficou sozinho. Então veio um homem que se pôs a lutar com ele até o amanhecer.
25 Quando o homem viu que não poderia dominar Jacó, tocou-lhe na articulação da coxa, de forma que a deslocou enquanto lutavam.
26 Então o homem disse: “Deixe-me ir, pois o dia já desponta”. Mas Jacó lhe respondeu: “Não te deixarei ir, a não ser que me abençoes”.
27 O homem lhe perguntou: “Qual é o seu nome?”“Jacó”, respondeu ele.
28 Então disse o homem: “Seu nome não será mais Jacó, mas sim Israel, porque você lutou com Deus e com homens e venceu”.
