Scripture Genesis 28:18-22 Mary Meckenstock
Early the next morning Jacob took the stone he had placed under his head and
set it up as a pillar and poured oil on top of it. He called that place Bethel,
though the city used to be called Luz. Then Jacob made a vow saying, “If God
will be with me and will watch over me on this journey I am taking and will give
me food to eat and clothes to wear so that I return safely to my father’s house,
then the Lord will be my God and this stone that I have set up as a pillar will be
God’s house, and of all that you give me I will give you a tenth.”
