The Lord put the socket of Jacob's hip . . . out of joint, causing him to walk with a limp the rest of his life. -- Bible Believers Commentary

It was break of day when the angel desired to be let go, and by that time the parley held between them ceased, and they parted, the sun was rising; and as Jacob went on it shone upon him, as a token of the good will and favour of God to him, and as an emblem of the sun of righteousness arising on him with healing in his wings, and he halted upon his thigh; it being out of joint, of which he became more sensible when he came to walk upon it; and besides, his attention to the angel that was with him caused him not so much to perceive it until he had departed front him: some think he went limping all his days; others, that he was healed immediately by the angel before he came to Esau; but of either there is no proof. -- Gill

And as he passed over Penuel-this some suppose to have been the original name of the place, which Jacob changed by the alteration of a vowel, but it is probably nothing more than an old form of the same word-the sun rose upon him,-"there was sunshine within and sunshine without. When Judas went forth on his dark design, we read, 'It was night,' Joh_13:30" (Inglis)-and he halted upon his thigh-thus carrying with him a memorial of his conflict, as Paul afterwards bore about with him a stake in his flesh (2Co_12:7). -- The Pulpit Commentary

Jewish answer:

The angel (not the Lord) put the socket of Jacob's hip out of joint, causing him to walk with a limp for several hours (not his whole life). Rashi commentary, based upon continuous Jewish tradition, not educated conjecture.

Why did God say Isaac was Abraham's only son?

Here are several commentaries: 1) He was Abraham's only son through Sarah (Rashi commentary, Genesis ch.22). 2) He was the son through whom Abraham's covenant with God would continue (this is an explicit verse in Genesis 17). 3) For both of the above reasons, it was said that only Isaac would be considered Abraham's real seed (Genesis 21:12). Interestingly, despite Isaac being much younger than he, even Ishmael acknowledged Isaac's preeminence (Rashi commentary, Genesis ch.25).
