God's promise to Rebecca (Genesis 25:23) was fulfilled when He chose her son Jacob (28:13-15) and not Esau (Malachi 1:2-3). God's promises to Jacob were fulfilled through His protection of Jacob (Genesis ch.35) and through the Israelites' inheritance of the Holy Land.
God fulfilled his promises to Jacob by giving him numerous descendants who became the twelve tribes of Israel, as well as the land of Canaan. He fulfilled his promises to Rebecca by allowing her to bear two sons, Esau and Jacob, who played significant roles in shaping the nation of Israel.
he gave them kids
God chose Jacob over Esau based on His divine will and purpose, not because of anything Jacob or Esau had done. This decision was part of God's larger plan to fulfill His promises to Abraham and Isaac, and to establish the lineage through which Jesus Christ would eventually be born.
Reminding God of his promises in prayer helps us to strengthen our faith and trust in Him, and it demonstrates our belief in His faithfulness. It also aligns our prayers with His will and purpose, allowing us to claim the promises He has made in His word.
The angel who wrestled with Jacob is traditionally believed to be an angel of God, though the specific name of the angel is not provided in the Bible. This event is described in the Book of Genesis, chapter 32, where Jacob wrestles with the angel until daybreak and receives a blessing.
God changed Jacob's name to Israel, as mentioned in the Bible in Genesis 32:28. This renaming symbolized Jacob's transformation and new identity as a man who struggled with God and men, yet prevailed.
A:In Genesis chapter 32, Jacob wrestled all night with a stranger, until it was time for the sun to come up and it was time for the stranger to leave. Jacob refused to let the stranger leave unless he blessed Jacob. The stranger, who was clearly a god, told Jacob that henceforth his name would no longer be Jacob, but instead be Israel, for he had wrestled with God. And if the opponent was a god, he was also a sun god - daybreak signalled the end of the contest, he had to leave Jacob before the sun could rise, then the sun rose upon Jacob. And Jacob, now Israel, named the place Peniel because he had seen God face to face. A little later, after meeting his brother Esau, whom he had feared, Jacob went to Shalem, where he bought land and built an altar, calling the place El-elohe-Israel.There is substantial evidence in the Bible itself that Jacob was originally a moon god before the story evolved into one of a human Patriarch, so when he wrestled all night with the god who blessed him and changed his name to Israel, this could have originated as the daily struggle in which the sun god defeats the moon god at dawn, after the moon god had prevailed all night. And not only was Jacob likely to have once been a moon god, but his twin brother and constant rival (even before birth), Esau, was likely to have been the sun god in the earliest version of their story. If so, the 'man' who wrestled with Jacob was another incarnation of his own brother, Esau.The name Israel (Yisra'el) is commonly translated as "Wrestled with God", but it can also mean "Champion (or Prince) of God", "Striver with (or against) God", "Ruler (or Prince) over God", "God Prevails", "God Rules", "God will Rule", or possibly "God Who will Rule".Later, Jacob went to Bethel, where he had previously fled from his brother Esau. In an apparently independent account Genesis 35:10-12), because God did not seem to know that Jacob had already been renamed Israel, God appeared to Jacob and told him that his name would no longer be Jacob, but instead be Israel, and that he would father a great nation in fulfilment of the covenant with Abraham and Isaac.
No. But there are lots of God's promises all throughout the Bible!God promises are covenents.
I suppose you can consider it conditional in that Abraham had to leave his country in order for God to fulfill his promises. But as for all the blessings God promised (that were to be given once Abraham arrived in his new country), those were all unconditional.
Abraham began serving God long before God spoke to him. He didn't serve God because of Divine promises. However, the prophecies and promises certainly encouraged him.
Having hope in the Lord alone means trusting in God's promises, relying on His strength, and seeking His guidance in all circumstances. It involves putting your faith in God's plan for your life and believing that He will provide for your needs and fulfill His purposes for you.
He didn't; and Isaac married only once. He married Rebecca and never had another wife. (You probably meant to ask about Jacob.)
God changed Jacob's name twice. First, he changed his name from Jacob to Israel, which means "He struggles with God" after Jacob wrestled with an angel. Later, God also referred to Jacob as "God Almighty" or "Abraham's God" in Genesis 35:11.
God chose Jacob over Esau based on His divine will and purpose, not because of anything Jacob or Esau had done. This decision was part of God's larger plan to fulfill His promises to Abraham and Isaac, and to establish the lineage through which Jesus Christ would eventually be born.
We don't use the word in the same nuance as it is used by Christians. We (Jews) need to concentrate on upholding our end of the covenant by keeping the entire Torah, and God will fulfill his prophetic promises when He sees fit.

Jacob obeyed God after he wrestled with God, but he was always stubborn and went his own way but God set him straight. God helped Jacob by setting him straight and making his kids into a great nation. Read Genesis chapter 27,28 and 19 and maybe 30 to be safe.
God Given Faith. FAITH!
