Luz En Ingles

Luz is the ancient name of a royal Canaanite city, connected with Bethel (Genesis 28:19; 35:6). It is debated among scholars[citation needed] whether Luz and Bethel represent one and the same town -the former the Canaanite name, and the latter the Hebrew name - or whether they were distinct places in proximity to each other.

Luz is also a town in the north, described in Judges 1:22 "And thehouse of Joseph, they also went up against Beth-el; and the LORD was with them. 23 And the house of Joseph sent to spy out Beth-el--now the name of the city beforetime was Luz. 24 And the watchers sawa man come forth out of the city, and they said unto him: 'Show us, we pray thee, the entrance into the city, and we will deal kindly with thee.' 25 And he showed them the entrance into the city, andthey smote the city with the edge of the sword; but they let the man go and all his family. 26 And the man went into the land of the Hittites, and built a city, and called the name thereof Luz, whichis the name thereof unto this day." It is identified by some with Luweiziyeh, four miles northwest of Banias, in the Golan Heights.
