《Israel: the hidden meaning》「以色列」的意義

※Traditional Explanation
The man said to Jacob: “Your name shall no longer be Jacob, but Israel, for you have striven with beings divine and human, and have prevailed” (Gen. 32:28). Therefore, it is widely believed that the name “Israel” comes from the Hebrew word sharit (שרית), which in biblical Hebrew means “to struggle”, “to exercise influence”, or “to prevail”.
那人說：「你的名不要再叫雅各，要叫以色列；因為你與神與人較力，都得了勝。」（創32:28）。
因此，人們普遍認為「以色列」這個名字來源於希伯來語中的sharit（שרית），在聖經中希伯來文中的意思是「搏鬥」，「較力」或「得勝」。

There is another way to interpret this name, one which helps us comprehend the depth of the transformation at Penuel.
這個名字還有另一種解釋法，這可以幫助我們從Penuel深度的理解。
@~
Gen. 32:30 So Jacob called the name of the place Peniel毗努伊勒（Peniel: that is, The face of God就是神之面的意思）31 The sun rose upon him as he passed Penuel, limping because of his hip.
פְּנִיאֵ֑ל (6439) פּניאל פּנוּאל pe nûêl pe nı̂yêl pen-oo-ale, pen-ee-ale
Penuel or Peniel = "facing God"

※What happened to Jacob?
*The name Israel can be read as Yashar- El (ישר-אל). The Hebrew word Yashar (יָשָׁר) means straight, honest, honorable, law-abiding and in biblical usage, it also means “righteous, God-fearing person”.
「以色列」ישׂראל這個名字可以分解為Yashar-El（ישר-אל）。希伯來語Yashar（יָשָׁר）意思是直接，誠實，光榮，守法(sincere、upright、straightforward、righteous、…。)，在聖經用法，它也意味著「義人、敬畏上帝的人」。

*The root akov (עָקֹב֙), on the other hand, (the root of the name Yakov) might mean also “crooked”, as in this verse: the crooked (הֶֽעָקֹב֙) shall be made straight (Is 40:4).
另一方面，「雅各」(3290) יעקבya‛ăqôb yah-ak-obe，字根akov（עָקֹב֙），（Yakov這個名字的根）意味著「彎曲」，如賽40：4在這節經文中：彎曲的（הֶֽעָקֹב֙）變成直的(לְמִישׁ֔וֹר)。
@~
賽40:4一切山窪都要填滿，大小山岡都要削平；高高低低的要改為平坦，崎崎嶇嶇的必成為平原。
הֶֽעָקֹב֙ (6121) עקב‛âqôb aw-kobe ；the crooked：1)-deceitful, sly, insidious 2)-steep, hilly
~
לְמִישׁ֔וֹר (4334) מישׁר מישׁור mı̂yshôr mı̂yshôr mee-shore, mee-shore：shall be made straight
~@

*Then we understand the meaning of this change: Israel is the one whom God makes straight, as opposed to “being crooked and uneven”.
然後我們理解「雅各」改名「以色列」，這種變化的意義：以色列是上帝所造的「義人」，而不是「不正和易變的」。
