pillar
The word pillar refers here to a stone that is used to commemorate something. In this case, Jacob used a stone to mark and help him remember the place where God had appeared to him. Alternate translation: “as a marker,” or “as a memorial stone,” or “to mark that place where God had appeared to him.”

In Bible times people poured olive oil on a person’s head or on objects (as here) to dedicate that person or object to God. Make sure that the way you translate oil does not refer to motor oil. Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “Then he poured some olive oil on top of the pillar to dedicate the place to God.”
28:18 Anointing with oil became a way of setting something apart for divine use in Israel’s worship (Exod 29:1-7; 40:9; Lev 2:1; 1 Sam 10:1).

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
