Original Note:
The Quranic reference to "Son of Israel" actually refers to the prophet Jacob, not the land of Israel. Jacob was named "Israel" in the Hebrew Bible. This context is important to understand the verse. Genesis 32:28: "..Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel.." https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis%2032%3A28&version=NIV
