Jacob

The Covenant with Jacob (Gen. 28:10-36:43)

February 25, 2023 / SJ Hatch / Leave a comment

The Jacob narrative is bookended by his time in Bethel.  It is in Bethel, when he is fleeing from his brother Esau that he receives a vision of a ladder between Heaven and Earth on which angels of God were ascending and descending (Gen. 28:12).  Jacob learned hesed, covenantal love during his sojourn in Padan Aram.
