וְיַעֲקֹ֖ב הָלַ֣ךְ לְדַרְכּ֑וֹ וַיִּפְגְּעוּ־ב֖וֹ מַלְאֲכֵ֥י אֱלֹהִֽים׃
Auch Jakob ging seines Weges, da begegneten ihm Engel Gottes.

In Lord of lords,21Deut. 10, 17. the first is sacred and the second is secular; in the God of Abraham22Gen. 31, 53. it is sacred; in the God of Nahor23ibid.; Nahor did not worship the true God. it is secular; in the God of their father24ibid.; Terah (their father) was an idolater. it is secular. In Thou shalt not revile God25Ex. 22, 27. [the noun may bear] a sacred or secular meaning.26It may denote God or judges. R. Simeon maintains that the noun is sacred.27V inserts ‘as it says’ within brackets, the words being redundant. [H omits and reads ‘Ishmael’ instead of ‘Simeon’.] In Forasmuch as I have seen thy face, as one seeth the face of God28Gen. 33, 10. the noun is secular;29Because it refers to an angel or prince. in God’s camp30ibid. XXXII, 3. the noun is sacred.
