Genesis 21:31-33

31Therefore that place was called Beersheba (Well of the Oath or Well of the Seven), because there the two of them swore an oath.

32So they made a covenant at Beersheba; then Abimelech and Phicol, the commander of his army, got up and returned to the land of the Philistines.

33Abraham planted a tamarisk tree at Beersheba, and there he called on the name of the Lord [in prayer], the Eternal God.
