This Luz entry refers to the separate city founded in the land of the Hittites after the fall of the original Luz/Bethel context. It is important because the same name is carried from one place-history into another. First appears in Judg 1:26.1
AI summary: Luz matters here because the memory of a city's name survives relocation. The record belongs to the transmission of identity from the old Canaanite setting into a new settlement.1
A place in the land of the Hittites, founded (Judg. 1:26) by “a man who came forth out of the city of Luz.” It is identified with Luweiziyeh, 4 miles north-west of Banias. 3
