Charles Ellicott Commentary Genesis 35:9

"And God appeared unto Jacob again, when he came from Paddan-aram, and blessed him." — Genesis 35:9 (ASV)

When he came out of Padan-aram. —The word "out" is not in the Hebrew, which says, on his coming from — that is, on his arrival at Beth-el from Padan-aram. The insertion of the word "out" leads to confusion with the revelation recorded in Genesis 31:3.

At Beth-el, when Jacob was setting out, he had seen the dream that assured him of divine protection. At Beth-el, on his return, God renews the covenant, confirms to him the name of Israel, and transfers to him the promises of a numerous seed and of the possession of the land. It was the ratification to him of the inheritance of all the hopes and assurances given to Abraham.
