Jacob was a lonely, guilty figure fleeing his past when he had the dream. God had to speak to Jacob in a dream when he was passive to get through to him. In the dream, Jacob saw a ladder between heaven and earth with angels going up and down. The passage points to Jesus as the ladder between heaven and earth. Jesus referred to himself as the ladder between heaven and earth. The passage also tells us something about the church as a "trusting" place where heaven and earth meet. The church is a special meeting place between God and people. The passage addresses us individually in our own lonely, guilty, or dark places. Even when we don't know it, God can be present with us in those painful places. Those painful places can later become "Bethel" - the house of God.
