Kommentar zu Bereschit 28:11
וַיִּפְגַּ֨ע בַּמָּק֜וֹם וַיָּ֤לֶן שָׁם֙ כִּי־בָ֣א הַשֶּׁ֔מֶשׁ וַיִּקַּח֙ מֵאַבְנֵ֣י הַמָּק֔וֹם וַיָּ֖שֶׂם מְרַֽאֲשֹׁתָ֑יו וַיִּשְׁכַּ֖ב בַּמָּק֥וֹם הַהֽוּא׃
Da stieß er auf einen Ort und übernachtete dort, weil die Sonne untergegangen war, nahm einen von den Steinen des Ortes, stellte ihn sich zu Häupten auf und legte sich an dieser Stätte nieder.
Pri HaAretz
It is written in the Midrash "Taking one of the stones of that place", in the beginning there were many stones and for Jacob they became one stone. And it is therefore said "[Jacob] took the stone" (see there).
