Genesis 35:9-15 - Jacob's Sixth Encounter With God - His Name Changed To Israel

⁹ Then God [in a visible manifestation] appeared to Jacob again when he came out of Paddan-aram, and declared a blessing on him. ¹⁰ Again God said to him,

“Your name is Jacob;
You shall no longer be called Jacob,
But Israel shall be your name.”

So he was called Israel. ¹¹ And God said to him,

“I am God Almighty.
Be fruitful and multiply;
A nation and a company of nations shall come from you,
And kings shall be born of your loins.
¹²
“The land which I gave Abraham and Isaac
I will give to you,
and to your descendants after you I will give the land.”

¹³ Then God ascended from Jacob in the place where He had spoken with him.

¹⁴ Jacob set up a pillar (memorial, monument) in the place where he had talked with God, a pillar of stone, and he poured a drink offering [of wine] on it; he also poured oil on it [to declare it sacred for God’s purpose]. ¹⁵ So Jacob named the place where God had spoken with him, Bethel (the House of God).
