Israel יִשְׂרָאֵל is from the verb לִשְׂרוׂת (to strive with or wrestle) and the word אֵל El (God). It is the name given to Jacob after he wrestles with God's angel as described in our verse. This is the source of the name Israel, as in the Children of Israel, the Land of Israel and the People of Israel.

You got it! Yesterday's photo by Sharon Gabay featured the Jerusalem Chord Bridge, also called the Jerusalem Light Rail Bridge. The bridge was designed to evoke the image of King David's harp.
