Genesis 35:7-9
Evangelical Heritage Version

7 He built an altar there and named the place El Beth El,[a] because God had been revealed to him there, when he fled from the presence of his brother.

8 Deborah, who was Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried under the oak below Bethel. So the place was named Allon Bacuth.[b]

9 God appeared to Jacob again after he had come from Paddan Aram, and he blessed him.[c]
