The name "Israel" first appears in the Bible as the name given by God to the patriarch Jacob (Genesis 32:28)..."

Jacob was renamed Israel. The descendants of Jacob are known as Israelites. Israel is a person not a land. The term Israelite is the English name for the  descendants of the biblical patriarch Jacob in ancient times, which is  derived from the Greek Ἰσραηλῖται,[34] which was used to translate the  Biblical Hebrew term b'nei yisrael, יִשְׂרָאֵל as either "sons of  Israel" or "children of Israel".[35]

 

The name Israel first appears in the Hebrew Bible in  Genesis 32:29. It refers to the renaming of Jacob, who, according to the  Bible, wrestled with an angel, who gave him a blessing and renamed him  Israel because he had "striven with God and with men, and have  prevailed".
