Genesis 28:19 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Bethel, means the house of God. Luz, means an almond-tree. When souls are awakened and brought into the bond of the covenant, gracious names supply the place of those which are natural.

Genesis 28:19

19 And he called the name of that place Bethel:e but the name of that city was called Luz at the first.
