Eh, Jacob is known as Israel.

No. All of our writings in Hebrew are Ya'akov even as if it is shorthanded.

I don't know what it really means to you that you should argue, but I go by

Thy name shall not be called Jacob, but Israel (Genesis 32:28)

Thou shalt not be called any more Jacob, but Israel shall be thy name (Genesis 35:10)

It is true that the Holy Bible still goes on calling him Jacob; do you know why? In any event, I meant the same man, Jacob and not Israel in a spiritual or geographical sense. I apologize if this created a misunderstanding.
