Bible Verses About the Mighty One of Jacob: 12

Bible Verses About the Mighty One of Jacob: 12 on Isaiah 49:26 and abir ya'akov.

A lone walker follows a long switchback path toward morning light on a ridge.

"I will make your oppressors eat their own flesh; they will be drunk on their own blood, as with wine. Then all mankind will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob."

— Isaiah 49:26 (NIV)

People who search bible verses about the Mighty One of Jacob want Scripture on Isaiah 49:26's abir ya'akov — the LORD named Mighty One of Jacob as Savior and Redeemer — not only the rock of Israel inventory alone, or the living God inventory alone. This page is a numbered list of twelve passages with the NIV text and a short note on each. Related lists: Bible verses about the rock of Israel, Bible verses about the living God, Bible verses about salvation, Bible verses about hope, Bible verses about faith, Bible verses about God's love, Bible verses about Jesus, Bible verses about Christ, Bible verses about worship, Bible verses about refuge, and Bible verse of the day. The Elohei Ya'akov fortress name is Bible verses about the God of Jacob. Mighty One of Jacob here means the Isaiah 49:26 / 60:16 confession that God is Jacob's mighty Redeemer — distinct from rock-of-Israel or living-God lists alone.

Word study (lead theme). In Hebrew, אָבִיר abir (Strong's H46; Bible Hub H46) means mighty / strong one (used of God as Mighty One), and יַעֲקֹב ya'akov (Strong's H3290; Bible Hub H3290) is Jacob. Isaiah 49:26 joins them — your Savior, your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob. This list tracks that Mighty-One-of-Jacob title and related God-of-Jacob / Mighty-One-of-Israel language, not every rock-of-Israel or living-God verse alone. (Genesis 49:24's "Mighty One of Jacob" line sits with the Stone of Israel on that page — do not duplicate it here.)

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on Isaiah 49 presses the Redeemer and Mighty One of Jacob known to all mankind, and Isaiah 60 presses the same title in Zion's restoration (Bible Hub MHC Isaiah 49; Blue Letter Bible, Matthew Henry on Isaiah 49; Bible Hub MHC Isaiah 60; Blue Letter Bible, Matthew Henry on Isaiah 60). (Rock of Israel and living God live on those pages; this list centers abir ya'akov.)
