2 Chronicles 13:19

Beth-el; which Jeroboam recovered afterwards, as appears by the course of the history, though it be not particularly mentioned, which is the case of many other considerable things. And in the mean time it is very probable, that when Jeroboam's host was discomfited, and he expected that Abijah would pursue his victory, he removed the golden calf from Beth-el, which lay near Abijah's kingdom, to some safer place. Ephrain; a city so called, possibly the same which is mentioned 1 Thessalonians 11:54, or that which is called Ophrah, Judges 8:27.
