Information

Jacob

Jacob is a significant figure in the Hebrew Bible and the Quran, serving as a patriarch of the Israelites and a key character in the narrative of the Abrahamic religions. In Hebrew, Jacob is known as Ya'aqov (יעקב), which is derived from the Hebrew root meaning "to follow" or "to supplant." In Arabic, he is referred to as Ya'qūb (ياقوب). Jacob is the son of Isaac and Rebecca, and the father of the twelve tribes of Israel. His story is marked by significant events such as his struggle with his twin brother Esau, his journey to Haran where he works for his uncle Laban, and his eventual return to Canaan. Jacob's name is also associated with the name "Israel," which he receives after wrestling with an angel. This event is seen as a pivotal moment in Jacob's life, symbolizing his transformation and the establishment of the Israelite nation. Jacob's descendants, through his twelve sons, become the twelve tribes of Israel, playing a crucial role in the religious and historical narrative of the Jewish people and other Abrahamic faiths.
