Jacob Builds an Altar at Shechem
When Jacob returned from Paddan-Aram, he arrived safely at Shechem in Canaan. He bought a plot of land from Hamor's sons for one hundred kesitahs and built an altar there, which he named "El the God of Israel".
Génesis 33,18-20
18After coming from Paddan Aram, Jacob arrived safely at the city of Shechem in the land of Canaan and camped within sight of the city.
וַיָּבֹא֩ יַעֲקֹ֨ב שָׁלֵ֜ם עִ֣יר שְׁכֶ֗ם אֲשֶׁר֙ בְּאֶ֣רֶץ כְּנַ֔עַן בְּבֹא֖וֹ מִפַּדַּ֣ן אֲרָ֑ם וַיִּ֖חַן אֶת־פְּנֵ֥י הָעִֽיר׃
19For a hundred pieces of silver he bought from the sons of Hamor, Shechem's father, the plot of ground where he had pitched his tent.[fn]
וַיִּ֜קֶן אֶת־חֶלְקַ֣ת הַשָּׂדֶ֗ה אֲשֶׁ֤ר נָֽטָה־שָׁם֙ אָהֳל֔וֹ מִיַּ֥ד בְּנֵֽי־חֲמ֖וֹר אֲבִ֣י שְׁכֶ֑ם בְּמֵאָ֖ה קְשִׂיטָֽה׃
20There he set up an altar and called it El Elohe Israel—God, the God of Israel.
וַיַּצֶּב־שָׁ֖ם מִזְבֵּ֑חַ וַיִּ֨קְרָא־ל֔וֹ אֵ֖ל אֱלֹהֵ֥י יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ ס
