This time, Fr. John and Danny talk through Jacob’s mysterious encounter at Peniel in Genesis 32, where he wrestles with a divine stranger and emerges both wounded and blessed. The narrative’s deliberate ambiguity highlights the paradox of seeing God face to face—an experience that is both dangerous and transformative. Ultimately, the story teaches that grappling with enigma and mystery in Scripture draws us deeper into the awe-filled reality of God.
