Genesis 35:8 - Forerunner Commentary

Genesis 35:8

6 So Jacob came to ^aLuz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him.

7 And he ^abuilt an altar there and called the place¹ El Bethel, because ^bthere God appeared to him when he fled from the face of his brother.

8 Now ^aDeborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the terebinth tree. So the name of it was called¹ Allon Bachuth.

9 Then ^aGod appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Padan Aram, and ^bblessed him.

10 And God said to him, “Your name is Jacob; ^ayour name shall not be called Jacob anymore, ^bbut Israel shall be your name.” So He called his name Israel.
