Ben-Oni vs Benjamin: The Dual Nature

START

Genesis 35:18

"And it came to pass as her soul was in departing (for she died) that she called his name Benoni: but his father called him Benjamin."

Two Names, One Destiny

END

Genesis 49:27

"Benjamin shall ravin as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey and at night he shall divide the spoil."

No other tribe carries the paradox of the Cross and Crown so well.

Jesus lived both names:

Ben-Oni (Son of Sorrow): On the cross, Jesus was the man of sorrows.
Benjamin (Son of the Right Hand): After the pain, Jesus sat "at the right hand of the Majesty". The Father changed the name of pain to the name of power.
