In one of my previous posts I tried to solve Jacob’s strange “dream” in which he saw angels (read: unidentified extraterrestrial beings) climbing a ladder to heaven (read: to a flying vehicle).
Today I decided to take a closer look at the story of Jacob, who fought with God / Angel / Elohim.
Jacob’s struggle with God is further evidence of the presence and interference of extraterrestrial beings in the development of homo sapiens.
Jacob, son of Isaac, grandson of Abram (named Abraham by the creator), worked for many years for his future father-in-law Laban, in order to earn money for a wife and marry her. After many years, he returned to his hometown with his wives Rachel and Leah, children, servants and all their belongings.
On his way back Jacob came upon the camp of Elohim.
Genesis 32:1-2
1 Jacob also went on the journey he had begun: and the angels of God met him.
2 And when he saw them, he said: These are the camps of God, and he called the name of that place Mahanaim, that is, Camps.
In this case, the Mahanim signifies the place of two camps, and it proves that Jacob saw the camp of Angels/Elohim who were physically present on Earth. Following this theme, we can see that the Elohim were not discarnate angels, but physical flesh and blood individuals who were present on Earth.
Moving on, Jacob encountered a person with whom he had to fight.
Genesis 32:24-31
24 He remained alone; and behold, a man wrestled with him till morning.
25 And when he saw that he could not overcome him, he touched the sinew of his thigh, and forthwith it shrank.
26 And he said to him: Let me go, for it is break of day. He answered: I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
27 And he said: What is thy name? He answered: Jacob.
28 But he said: Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel; for if thou hast been strong against God, how much more shalt thou prevail against men?
29 Jacob asked him: Tell me by what name art thou called? He answered: Why dost thou ask my name? And he blessed him in the same place.
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Phanuel, saying: I have seen God face to face, and my soul has been saved.
31 And immediately the sun rose upon him, after he was past Phanuel; but he halted on his foot.
The above description says that Jacob actually fought with someone, with God / Angel / Elohim and was not killed, nor did he lose.
Thanks to this event he was named Israel (Hebrew יִשְׂרָאֵל , “Fighting with God”).
Isra-El means “fighting with El”, and El is a synonym for the highest god, deity.
El in Ugaritic mythology is the highest Canaanite god.
The place where they fought – Penuel / Peni-El means “the face of El”. This is a reference to the fact that Jacob saw the face of God (El) and did not die, which usually does not happen (no one can see the face of the Lord and live).
Here are a few things that bother me:
1. Why did Jacob fight with the creator, the highest God? Does God have to fight?
2. If Jacob fought with the supreme God, the creator of heaven and earth, then God had a corporeal shell? He was not a spiritual being?
3. If God is immortal, omnipresent, omnipotent, then why did he lose to Jacob?
4. Jacob, winning with God, forced a blessing on him – this is really strange and incomprehensible… God humbled himself as a defeated one and blessed the victorious Jacob?
So the most important question for today is: did Jacob, called Israel, fight with the supreme God, a spiritual being, or maybe with a physical material being who did not come from Earth and was the leader of extraterrestrial beings?
As always, I leave the answer to this question to each individual.
