New Testament

Genesis 35:4-9 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

4. They gave to Jacob all the foreign gods which were in their hands, and the rings which were in their ears; and Jacob hid them under the oak which was by Shechem.

5. They traveled, and a terror of God was on the cities that were around them, and they didn’t pursue the sons of Jacob.

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

7. He built an altar there, and called the place El Beth El; because there God was revealed to him, when he fled from the face of his brother.

8. Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the oak; and its name was called Allon Bacuth.

9. God appeared to Jacob again, when he came from Paddan Aram, and blessed him.
