Israel (Шаблон:Hebrew name) is a Hebrew-language masculine given name. According to the Book of Genesis, the name was bestowed upon Jacob after the incident in which he wrestled with the angel (Шаблон:Bibleverse and 35:10). The given name is already attested in Eblaite (Шаблон:Lang Шаблон:Transliteration) and Ugaritic (Шаблон:Lang Шаблон:Transliteration).[1]Шаблон:Pages needed Commentators differ on the original literal interpretation. The text of the Book of Genesis etymologizes the name with the root Шаблон:Transliteration (Шаблон:Lang, "to rule, contend, have power, prevail over"):[2] Шаблон:Lang (KJV: "a prince hast thou power with God"), but modern suggestions read the Шаблон:Transliteration as the subject, for a translation of "El rules/judges/struggles"Шаблон:Cn or "El fights/struggles"Шаблон:Cn The Jewish Study Bible of Oxford University Press says on page 68 "The scientific etymology of Israel is uncertain, a good guess being '[The God] El rules.Шаблон:'"[3] implying God through the word for the supreme deity of the Canaanite religion.

Referring to a foreign people, the name appears on the Merneptah Stele (Шаблон:Lang-egy Шаблон:Transliteration), probably referring to the Israelites.

In Jewish texts during the Second Temple period and beyond, as well as in Christian Greco-Egyptian texts, Шаблон:Transliteration was understood to mean "a man seeing God": from Шаблон:Transliteration (man) Шаблон:Transliteration (to see) Шаблон:Transliteration (God).[4]

Per the Bible, Jacob's descendants (the Twelve Tribes of Israel) formed a national ethos and collectively established the Kingdom of Israel, whence came the name of the modern-day State of Israel.
