And the Lord said,“ Go and patrol the earth!” So they left at once on their patrol.Then the Lord summoned me and said,“ Look, those who went north have vented the anger of my Spirit there in the land of the north.”

Ezekiel 1:5-14
From the center of the cloud came four living beings that looked human,except that each had four faces and four wings.Their legs were straight, and their feet had hooves like those of a calf and shone like burnished bronze.Under each of their four wings I could see human hands. So each of the four beings had four faces and four wings.The wings of each living being touched the wings of the beings beside it. Each one moved straight forward in any direction without turning around.Each had a human face in the front, the face of a lion on the right side, the face of an ox on the left side, and the face of an eagle at the back.Each had two pairs of outstretched wings— one pair stretched out to touch the wings of the living beings on either side of it, and the other pair covered its body.They went in whatever direction the spirit chose, and they moved straight forward in any direction without turning around.The living beings looked like bright coals of fire or brilliant torches, and lightning seemed to flash back and forth among them.And the living beings darted to and fro like flashes of lightning.

Genesis 32:24-31
This left Jacob all alone in the camp, and a man came and wrestled with him until the dawn began to break.When the man saw that he would not win the match, he touched Jacob’s hip and wrenched it out of its socket.Then the man said,“ Let me go, for the dawn is breaking!” But Jacob said,“ I will not let you go unless you bless me.”“ What is your name?” the man asked. He replied,“ Jacob.”“ Your name will no longer be Jacob,” the man told him.“ From now on you will be called Israel, because you have fought with God and with men and have won.”“ Please tell me your name,” Jacob said.“ Why do you want to know my name?” the man replied. Then he blessed Jacob there.Jacob named the place Peniel( which means“ face of God”), for he said,“ I have seen God face to face, yet my life has been spared.”The sun was rising as Jacob left Peniel, and he was limping because of the injury to his hip.
