The name Jacon means ...."Taking hold of the heel" Jacobs mother Rebekah was distressed by the struggling of the twins within her womb, which Jehovah explained , were the beginnings of two opposing nations. Furthermore Jehovah declared that contrary to custom, the older would serve the younger. Accordingly the second -born Jacob was holding the heel of Esau at their birth; hence the name Jacob, meaning "take hold of the heel" Genesis 25:22 thru 26. Jehovah thus demonstrated his ability to detect the genetic bent of the unborn, and to exercise his foreknowledge and right to select beforehand whom he chooses for his purposes, and yet in no way to predetermine the final destiny of individuals.
It is in the Bible. Book of Genesis.
This refers to Jacob's wrestling with the angel and the angel putting Jacob's hip out of joint when he could not overcome him. (Genesis 32.24-31). The spiritual meaning of this for us could be that when we wrestle with God in prayer for something, he gives us our desire but also humbles us in the process - Jacob got his blessing but went off limping on his thigh.
