1 Kings 18:30-32

The Voice

So all the people gathered around him, and he fixed the Eternal’s altar that had been torn down. ³¹ Elijah gathered 12 stones, one for each of Jacob’s tribes. Jacob was the one who wrestled with God and whom the word of the Eternal One visited, saying, “Your name will be Israel.”

³² Elijah took the 12 stones and constructed an altar in honor of the Eternal One and carved a ditch out around it large enough to hold 13 quarts of seed.
