NETBible

He built an altar there and named the place El Bethel 1  because there God had revealed himself 2  to him when he was fleeing from his brother.

NET Notes

sn The name El-Bethel means “God of Bethel.”

tn Heb “revealed themselves.” The verb נִגְלוּ (niglu), translated “revealed himself,” is plural, even though one expects the singular form with the plural of majesty. Perhaps אֱלֹהִים (’elohim) is here a numerical plural, referring both to God and the angelic beings that appeared to Jacob. See the note on the word “know” in Gen 3:5.
