Genesis 35:5-7
Easy-to-Read Version
5 Then Jacob and his sons left that place. The people in the surrounding cities wanted to follow and kill them, but God filled them with such great fear that they did not go after them. 6 So Jacob and his people went to Luz, which is now called Bethel. It is in the land of Canaan. 7 Jacob built an altar there. He named the place “El Bethel.”[a] Jacob chose this name because that is the place where God first appeared to him when he was running from his brother.
