God chose to call Jacob "Israel" instead of his birth name because Jacob had wrestled with God and prevailed, showing his strength and determination. This new name symbolized a transformation in Jacob's character and marked a new beginning for him as a leader of God's chosen people.
YES!!!!!!! She does pick Edward over Jacob!!!! And Edward turns Bella into a vampire when she was dying when while she was giving birth to Reneesme.
The birth of Israel as a nation can be traced back to Jacob's struggle with the angel of God. After Jacob fought the angel, God named him Israel, and this became the name that refers to Jacobs offspring who evolved into the nation of 12 tribes. The birth of modern Israel happened at the end of British occupied Palestine (what is now called Israel) after ww2 when the Jews of the diaspora returned to their native homeland and transformed it into a modern nation state.
No, Jacob doesn't die. Instead, he imprints on Reneseme, who is Bella's daughter, who she gives birth to in the book when she becomes a vampire.
