Did God become a person?

Shalom :)
I have a question :D
I read somewhere that in the Bible (Jewish Bible) that it says God became a person and wrestled with someone. And other instances where God came to some of the Prophets (peace be upon them). Is this true? And how does Judaism view God being able to come into a physical form?
I thank you for allowing me to ask on here and I hope I didn't offend anyone >_<
sorry I am just like that :(
anyways, thank you :)
Sincerely,
Isa Aldrete

Angels can get a physical form, and since they are agents of G-d they speak with G-d's authority. That's as close as it comes.

The wrestling you refer to was the guardian angel of Esau becoming a 'man' and attacking Jacob before his confrontation with his brother.

No offence taken, hope that helps. Shalom.
