So Jacob called the name of the place where God had spoken with him, Bethel.
He called the name of that place Bethel; but the name of the city was Luz at the first.
God said to Jacob, “Arise, go up to Bethel, and dwell there; and make there an altar to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”
Then they journeyed from Bethel; and when they were still some distance from Ephrath, Rachel travailed, and she had hard labor.
and there he built an altar, and called the place El-bethel, because there God had revealed himself to him when he fled from his brother.
