And Jacob went out from Beer- sheba. When Isaac came to the headship of the family, he settled down in Beer-sheba, opening up the well which Abraham went toward Haran, fore him a journey miles, which he must carrying what goods and getting his food what means he could. And he lighted upon a certain place. Named Luz at the time, but called Beth -el, of "House of God," by Jacob. And tarried there all night, because the sun was set. As Beth -el was about fifty miles north of Beer-sheba, this was the second or third night of his journey. And he took one of the stones of the place. Jacob was travelling along the rocky backbone of Palestine, where flat stones are very abundant. And put it under his head, and lay clown in that place to sleep. Jacob makes a pillow of the stone: his ac- tion in so doing, though it may sound strange to English readers, can be illustrated by the ordinary experience of those who are ac- quainted with Arab life and Orien- tal travel." JACOB'S DREAM AND VOW. And he dreamed. The dreams and visions of the Bible furnish some of its most notable and meaningful pas- sages. slut of them all, probably none is so famous as Jacob's dream of the angels' ladder. And, behold, a ladder is set up on the earth. Thus our highest ideals must have a solid basis in human life, or they will topple over. And the top of it reach- ed to heaven. This world and the other must be consciously connect- ed in every true man's life." And, behold, the angels of God ascending and descendieg on it. God is ever reaching out in infinite love to His wandering children. Ever He is sending Us strength, and good thoughts, pure desires, and impulses of unselfish love." 'And, behold, Jehovah stood above it. From that time Jacob felt more deeply the presence of God in his life. And said, I ani Jehovah. He- brew proper names ending its "jah' and "lel" are derived from this name of God. The God of Abraham thy father, and the God of Isaac. "Father" here, as often, means "an- cestor"; Abraham was his grandfa- ther. The land whereon thou lice Not only, of course, that little spot of ground, nor even all of Bethel, but the entire land of Palestine that Jacob's descendants afterwards own- ed. To thee I will give it, and to thy seed. Thus • God renewed the promise which he had made to Ab- raham, Gen. 13: 14, 15, and then to Isaac, Gen, 26:8. And thy seed shall be as the dust of the earth. This promise of in- numerable posterity was made also to Abraham, its these words, Gee. 28;14; and as applied to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, comparison is made to the uncounted stars (Gen. 15:5; 22;17; 264) and to the .utim- agivable number of grains of sand (Gem 22;17; 32:12). And thou shalt spread abroad (Hebrew, 'break forth") to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. This promise was partly fulfilled by the wide spread of the Jewish king- dom trader David and later under Jeroboam 11, but will be completely fulfilled only ie the worldwide king - had dug.
