And this stone, which I have set for a pillar, shall be God’s house: and of all that thou shalt give me I will surely give the tenth unto thee.
Y esta piedra que he puesto como columna será casa de Dios, y de todo lo que me des, te daré la décima parte.
Jacob promete que el lugar donde Dios se le apareció será su casa y que le dará la décima parte de todo lo que reciba.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the biblical narrative, Jacob was fleeing from his brother Esau after deceiving him to gain his birthright and blessing, as part of the ongoing story of God's covenant with Abraham's descendants. During his journey, Jacob had a dream at a place he named Bethel, where God appeared in a vision and reaffirmed promises of land, descendants, and protection. In response, Jacob set up a stone pillar as a memorial to mark this divine encounter and made a vow to dedicate a tenth of his future possessions to God, which was a common ancient Near Eastern practice of sealing commitments with deities.
