Genesis 35:18

¹⁸Mutta kun hänen henkensä oli lähtemäisillään, sillä hänen oli kuoltava, antoi hän hänelle nimen Benoni, mutta hänen isänsä antoi hänelle nimen Benjamin.

Genesis 35 marks a pivotal moment in Jacob's life, as God calls him back to Bethel to fulfill a vow and renew the Abrahamic covenant. This chapter is filled with significant events: the purging of foreign gods, the death of Deborah, the birth of Benjamin and the death of Rachel, and the return to Isaac. It underscores themes of divine faithfulness, Jacob's spiritual growth, and the ongoing, sometimes painful, formation of God's chosen family, setting the stage for the next generation of patriarchs.
