Genesis 35

Jacob commands his household to discard foreign gods, purify themselves, and travel to Beit-El to build an altar to ha-Elohim who answered him in distress; YHWH appears to him as El Shaddai, renews the covenant promising numerous descendants and the land, Rachel dies giving birth to Binyamin, and Yitzchak dies.
