I was reading Genesis 33 thru 35 and came across a startling revelation:
20 He put up an altar there and named it after El, the God of Israel.
Genesis 33:20 GNBDK

https://bible.com/bible/431/gen.33.20.GNBDK

1 God said to Jacob, “Go to Bethel at once, and live there. Build an altar there to me, the God who appeared to you when you were running away from your brother Esau.” 2 So Jacob said to his family and to all who were with him, “Get rid of the foreign gods that you have; purify yourselves and put on clean clothes. 3 We are going to leave here and go to Bethel, where I will build an altar to the God who helped me in the time of my trouble and who has been with me everywhere I have gone.” 7 He built an altar there and named the place after the God of Bethel, because God had revealed himself to him there when he was running away from his brother.
Genesis 35:1*-‬3*, ‬7 GNBDK

And then:

Document TAD B7.3 (Cowley No. 44) is an oath text involved in a property dispute between two Jews, Menahem son of Shallum and Meshullam son of Nathan. Menahem swears by Herem-Bethel [text partially reconstructed] and Anat-Yaho (Yahweh) that he is half-owner of a certain she-donkey.
