Thematic Bible: City built where jacob wrestled with the angel


Thematic Bible



Then Jeroboam built Shechem in the hill-country of Ephraim, and dwelt therein; and he went out from thence, and built Penuel.

And the sun rose upon him as he passed over Penuel, and he limped upon his thigh.

And he went up thence to Penuel, and spake unto them in like manner; and the men of Penuel answered him as the men of Succoth had answered. And he spake also unto the men of Penuel, saying, When I come again in peace, I will break down this tower.

And he brake down the tower of Penuel, and slew the men of the city.
