and named the place Bethel, though previously the city was named Luz.

So Jacob and all who were with him came to Luz (that is, Bethel) in the land of Canaan.

Jacob said to Joseph, “God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan and blessed me.

From Bethel it went to Luz and proceeded to the border of the Archites by Ataroth.

From there the border went toward Luz, to the southern slope of Luz (that is, Bethel); it then went down by Ataroth-addar, over the hill south of Lower Beth-horon.

They sent spies to Bethel (the town was formerly named Luz).

Then the man went to the land of the Hittites, built a town, and named it Luz. That is its name to this day.
