Timothy Wayne George's comment on 2013-01-10 04:01:59:

God wanted the children of Israel to remember forever, the part of the body that He touched to heal Jacob. Jacob is the only man, who wrestled with God, and won. It was then that God changed the name of Jacob, to Israel, which is the same when we are born again, we become Christians. If any man is in Christ, he is a new creation, the old is gone, and all things become new.
