How do we know Jacob was a man of faith?

Answered in 1 source

Jacob's life exemplified faith through his reliance on God's promises and his blessings upon his sons before his death.

Jacob's faith is evident not only in his struggles but also in his actions, particularly when he blessed the sons of Joseph while on his deathbed (Genesis 48:8-20). His recognition of the covenant made with Abraham and Isaac (Genesis 48:15), and his confidence in God's continued provision throughout his life, illustrate a deep and abiding trust in God's promises. In his life, Jacob demonstrated that faith is not the absence of doubt but the commitment to trust God through life's uncertainties.
