Genesis 33 Scofield
Read Genesis 33 · Matthew Henry on Genesis 33
33:19 And he bought a parcel of a field, where he had spread his tent, at the hand of the children of Hamor, Shechem's father, for an hundred pieces of money.
“Shechem's”
Called "Sychem," Acts 7:16.
33:20 And he erected there an altar, and called it Elelohe-Israel.
“El-elohe-Israel”
i.e. God, the God of Israel. Jacob's act of faith, appropriating his new name, but also claiming Elohim in this new sense as the God through whom alone he could walk according to his new name. See Gen 14:18–23.
See note 2 of (See Scofield "Gen 14:18") for a similar appropriation by Abraham.

33:13 And he said unto him, My lord knoweth that the children are tender, and the flocks and herds with young are with me: and if men should overdrive them one day, all the flock will die.
“My lord”
Not all at once does "Jacob" cease to dominate the walk of "Israel." Cf. Gen 35:1–10 where the walk becomes according to the new name.
