Genesis 35:8-20
8Now 1Deborah, Rebekah’s nurse, died, and she was buried below Bethel under the oak; and it was named 2Allon-bacuth.
9Then God appeared to Jacob again when he came from Paddan-aram, and He 3blessed him. 104God said to him, “Your name is Jacob; 5You shall no longer be called Jacob, But Israel shall be your name.” So He called 6him Israel. 11God also said to him, “I am 78God Almighty; 9Be fruitful and multiply; A nation and a 10multitude of nations shall 11come from you, And 12kings shall 13come from 14you.12And 15the land which I gave to Abraham and Isaac, I will give to you, And I will give the land to your 16descendants after you.” 13Then 17God went up from him at the place where He had spoken with him. 14So Jacob set up 18a memorial stone in the place where He had spoken with him, a memorial of stone, and he poured out a drink offering on it; he also poured oil on it. 15And Jacob named the place where God had spoken with him, 1920Bethel.
16Then they journeyed on from Bethel; but when there was still some distance to go to 21Ephrath, Rachel began to give birth and she suffered severe difficulties in her labor. 17And when she was suffering severe difficulties in her labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not fear, for 22you have another son!” 18And it came about, as her soul was departing (for she died), that she named him 23Ben-oni; but his father called him 24Benjamin. 19So 25Rachel died and was buried on the way to 26Ephrath (that is, Bethlehem). 20And Jacob set up a memorial stone over her grave; that is the 27memorial stone of Rachel’s grave to this day.
