The book is simply brilliant, with the most insightful analysis of the life of Jacob, encapsulating God's great salvation plan from the calling of the Israel nation all the way to the salvation of Christians and the second coming of Christ. It answers many intriguing questions about the blessings that Jacob wrestled from God and the subsequent sufferings he faced. --Sau-Wing Lam, preacher and renowned TV host With skillful description, William Lam tells a vivid story of how Jacob, a self-centered go-getter, was transformed from grabbing to giving, from alienation to reconciliation. The book opens our eyes to the salvation stories of Jesus Christ hidden in the lives of Jacob and his son Joseph. --Cecilia Yau, preacher, author, and spiritual director This investigative study of Jacob's life is fascinating, insightful, refreshing, and thought-provoking. It gives us a glimpse into the mysteries surrounding Jacob's wrestling match with God at the ford of Jabbok. --David Ling, senior pastor emeritus, San Francisco Bay Area and Hong Kong
