ed was evidence Of his self-confi-
dent feeling; that the angel did
not at once overcome him was a
matter Of grace and discipline.
(2) Weakness Against God. At
length it was necessary that Jacob
should be wounded before brought
to a just recognition of the Wrest-
Ter. A mere touch was sufficient,
and the strongest sinew in Jacobs
body gave way and shrivelled be-
meath it. Then Jacob was a.
reused, not to wrath. but to his
utter dependence. He now realized
that if he ever gained a victory
or inherited Canaan, it would be
not by his own wits or energies,
but by the gift of the Lord. (3)
Crisis Before God. For hours
Jacob had asserted himself against
his Antagonist with skill super
lative and with persistence to the
point Of obstinancy; but now his
self confidence crumpled in a heap
and his self-sufficiency suffered
utter collapse. Just then the Di-
vine Wrestler said to the wang
uished but victorious supplanter,
"Let me go, for the day break
eth" Physically he could have
shaken himself loose without ask
ing release. Possibly the request
was a suggestion that Jacob must
turn at once to the duties of the
day before him. More likely the
request simply opened the way by
Isaac but must come from God. 81.
ca Clinging to God. From wrest-
ling to clinging-what a trans
formation was there in the Jacob
nature! Nor would he relax his
hold when the Wrestler asked re-
lease. 81 will not let thee 60,

the channel Of blessing opened

and he depended solely upon God.

l. PERIL was involved In Esau's
hate. With his family and flocks
Jacob was moving slowly home
ward on his return from the East.
When the angels met him, he
know that God had not forsaken
him But now he was approaching
the territory occupied by Esau. To
test his present feeling, Jacob
sent messengers with concilia-
tory announcement of his arrival
in the country. He must have
h,en Mortified to learn that the
attitude of the injured brother was
still intensely hostile; for these
many years the germs of hate had
thriven in the bosom Of Esau, and
now at last had come the hour OF
vengeance. Quickly gathering a
hand of four hundred men, and
bent on destruction he started 10

The news filled the camp and

caravan of Jacob with the utmost
CONSERVATION. For the moment
perhaps his own spirit wavered.
But he fell at the throne Of grace
and uttered a most humble, earn
est prayer. Then he sought to
propitiate Esau with train OF
valuable gifts which he thought
would have great weight with his
impulsive brother. Yet to provi-
de against any emergency, he d.
vided his household into two COM
panies, so that if one should be
destroyed the other might escape.
Thus all possible precautions
were taken and plans were laid
by the time the shades of night
were upon them. And what rest
less, anxious night that was! They
were on the banks Of the Jabbok,
an eastern tributary Of the Jor-
dan, some miles above Jericho,
The presents for Esau had been,
sent over, but for a time Jacob
and the company remained on the
north side of the brook. But dur
ing the night, after slight rest,
Jacob arose and started the flocks
and the household over the brook
and on the anxious march to meet
Esau.
2. POWER was given in Gods
help. Note a. Wrestling with God
Jacob remained perhaps from no
higher motive than to see his
family safely across the brook or
to be sure that nothing valuable
was left. Contrary to our ordi-
nary view, he seems not to have
been now especially in a mental
frame for prayer. On the other
hand, he may have had absolute
confidence in the success Of his
plans. Well he knew his impetu-
Gus brother and how to reach him!
But there was a Force TO reckon
with which he was too much ignci
ing. So as he stood on the bank
Of Jahbok, there came to him IN
the darkness a mysterious Person
