JACOB - LIVING IN THE APPEARING OF GOD AND CALLING UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD

Jacob, as the third generation of the called race, was eventually led by God not to live by his supplanting way, but by the same way of contacting God as his grandfather and his father did. After being dealt with by the Lord for a considerable time, he learned to live in the appearing of God and to call upon the name of the Lord (Gen. 35:1, 9;
48:3). To him, this was not only the inherited way, but also the way to which he was led by God’s discipline.
