What did Jacob see in his dream about the ladder and angels?
In his dream, Jacob saw a ladder set on the earth with its top reaching to heaven. The angels of God were ascending and descending on it. The Lord stood above it and promised to give Jacob the land where he lay.
Les teaches that as Jacob went toward Haran, he had a night of rest and saw the angels ascending and descending. In the dream, a ladder was set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven. The angels of God were ascending and descending upon it. The Lord stood above it and said, “I am the Lord God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac,” and promised, “the land whereon thou liest, I will give it to thee.” Les notes that this promise is repeated again and again.
And he dreamed, and behold a ladder set up on the earth, and the top of it reached to heaven: and behold the angels of God ascending and descending on it.
