And Jacob called the name of the place where God spoke with him, Bethel.
And he called the name of that place Bethel; but the name of that city had been Luz previously.
Then they journeyed from Bethel. And when there was but a little distance to go to Ephrath, Rachel labored in childbirth, and she had hard labor.
Then God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel and dwell there; and make an altar there to God, who appeared to you when you fled from the face of Esau your brother.”
And he built an altar there and called the place El Bethel, because there God appeared to him when he fled from the face of his brother.
