It signifies God as the mighty and sovereign deity who is specifically the God of the patriarch Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel. This name underscores God's covenantal relationship with Israel and His role as their protector and provider.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the ancient Near Eastern context, names of deities often reflected their attributes and relationships with their worshippers. The use of "El" and "Elohim" in this compound name highlights God's supreme power and authority. The addition of "Yisrael" personalizes this power, linking it directly to the descendants of Jacob. This name is a testament to the monotheistic faith of the Israelites in a polytheistic world, affirming their belief in one true God who is actively involved in their history and destiny.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/410.htm">el</a>, <a href="/hebrew/430.htm">elohim</a> and <a href="/hebrew/3478.htm">Yisrael</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"the mighty God of Israel," an altar of Jacob<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>El-Elohe-Israel (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>El-elohe-israel <p>From <a href="/hebrew/410.htm">'el</a> and <a href="/hebrew/430.htm">'elohiym</a> and <a href="/hebrew/3478.htm">Yisra'el</a>;
