| <p> ''''' be ''''' - ''''' thū´el ''''' ( בּתוּאל , <i> ''''' bethū'ēl ''''' </i> ; "dweller in God"): A son of [[Nahor]] and Milcah, Abraham's nephew, father of [[Laban]] and [[Rebekah]] ( Genesis 22:23; Genesis 24:15 , Genesis 24:24 , Genesis 24:47 , Genesis 24:50; Genesis 25:20; Genesis 28:2 , Genesis 28:5 ). In the last-named passage, he is surnamed "the Syrian." The only place where he appears as a leading character in the narrative is in connection with Rebekah's betrothal to Isaac; and even here, his son Laban stands out more prominently than he - a fact explainable on the ground of the custom which recognized the right of the brother to take a special interest in the welfare of the sister (compare Genesis 34:5 , Genesis 34:21 , Genesis 34:25; 2 Samuel 13:20 , 2 Samuel 13:22 ). <i> Ant </i> , I, xvi, 2 states that [[Bethuel]] was dead at this time. </p> | | <p> ''''' be ''''' - ''''' thū´el ''''' , ''''' beth´ū̇ ''''' - ''''' el ''''' ( בּתוּאל , <i> ''''' bethū'ēl ''''' </i> , "destroyed of God"): A town of [[Simeon]] ( 1 Chronicles 4:30 ), the same as [[Bethul]] ( Joshua 19:4 ), and, probably, as the Beth-el of 1 Samuel 30:27 . </p> |
