Berean Standard Bible
Genesis 28:19
“And he called that place Bethel, though previously the city had been named Luz.”
In context
17And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God; this is the gate of heaven!”
18Early the next morning, Jacob took the stone that he had placed under his head, and he set it up as a pillar. He poured oil on top of it,
19And he called that place Bethel, though previously the city had been named Luz.
20Then Jacob made a vow, saying, “If God will be with me and watch over me on this journey, and if He will provide me with food to eat and clothes to wear,
21So that I may return safely to my father’s house, then the LORD will be my God.
