This story may seem to be pretty straightforward at first - Jacob wrestles with God and receives a blessing from Him. But as we dig in, we find not only profound lessons for us to draw from in our walk with Christ, but more importantly we see shadows and seeds of the Gospel unfolding right before our eyes. We truly see Jesus in this story and it's one that we had better pay attention to as it carries significance not only in the life of Jacob, but for all of Redemptive history!
