Genesis 32:1-2

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Genesis 32:1-2. And Jacob went on his way, and the angels of God met him. And when Jacob saw them, he said, This is God’s host: and he called the name of that place Mahanaim.

Jacob was about to enter upon a great trial, and therefore he received a great comfort in preparation for it. God knows when to send angels to his servants; and when they come, it is often as the forerunners of a trial which is to follow them.
