Thematic Bible: City built where jacob wrestled with the angel


Thematic Bible



Then Jeroboam built Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt therein; and went out from thence, and built Penuel.

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

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

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