Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the house of Joseph sent to descry Bethel,.... To reconnoitre the place, to observe its passes and avenues, which were most accessible, and to examine the walls of it, where they were weakest and least defended:
now the name of the city before [was] Luz; which signifies a "nut"; perhaps it was so called from large numbers of nut trees which grew near it; the Jews suggest as if it was like a nut, no entrance into it but through a cave or some subterraneous passage, see Genesis 28:19.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Judges 1:23. Beth-el - the name of the city before was Luz. — Concerning this city and its names, Genesis 28:19.
