Jacob is now returning from Padam Aram and needs to reconcile with Esau. As he travels south along the eastern side of the Jordan River he sends for Esau who lives in Edom. Once he makes peace with Esau Jacob then crosses the Jordan and enters the Land God had promised to Abraham. God appears to him and changes his name from Jacob to Israel. He then tells Jacob that the land God had given to Abraham and then to Isaac, would be given to him and to his descendants.
