Genesis 31:46-48

The Voice

⁴⁶ He told his relatives to gather up more stones. So they all took stones and made a large pile of them. Then they ate there by the pile. ⁴⁷ Laban called it Jegar-sahadutha (Aramaic for “witness-pile”) and Jacob called it Galeed (Hebrew for “witness-pile”).

This is why he called it Galeed.
