the biblical reference in Genesis
the person involved
the object (e.g., altar) and/or action (e.g.. sacrifice) involved
the name of God, if mentioned
Example:

Religious practices include objects like the use of altars and pillars or actions like prayer and sacrifice and related encounters with the God of the Hebrews.
