Introduction
15. Jacob’s return to Bethel ch. 35
After God reminded Jacob of his previous commitment to Him (Genesis 28:20-22), the patriarch returned to Bethel to worship Yahweh, bringing closure to the past. There the Lord reconfirmed the promises to him and completed his family by the birth of Benjamin. However, Jacob also experienced three deaths and rebellion against himself by Reuben. The deaths of Deborah, Rachel, and Isaac signal the end of an era.
