Genesis 35:6-8
English Standard Version Anglicised
6 And Jacob came to (A)Luz (that is, Bethel), which is in the land of Canaan, he and all the people who were with him, 7 and there he built an altar and called the place El-bethel,[a] because (B)there God had revealed himself to him when he fled from his brother. 8 And (C)Deborah, Rebekah's nurse, died, and she was buried under an oak below Bethel. So he called its name Allon-bacuth.[b]
