Genesis 13:3

“And he went on his journeys from the south even to Beth–el, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth–el and Hai;”

KJV

Meaning

Abram retraces his route from the Negev toward Bethel and returns to a place associated with his earlier journey in Canaan.

Ancient place names and routes should be handled with geographical and archaeological caution rather than forced into modern precision.

Returning to a place associated with earlier faith can help reorient a person after a difficult detour.
