Jacob's ladder
Jacob's ladder

July 4, 2011: Scripture:Lectionary 383. Genesis
28:10-22. Psalm 91:1-2, 3-4, 14-15. Matthew
0:18-26: Some of our religious experiences come
from our dreams or maybe while we are "day
dreaming." We have one of the great examples of
this in the story of Jacob's ladder. It is this
experience that leads him to believe in the God
of his father Isaac and his grandfather Abraham.
He will be one of the three forefathers or
ancestors in the faith for all believers in the
one God. We learn of the messengers of God
ascending and descending on that visioned
ladder. Heaven and earth are united for Jacob;
he is becoming a full person in touch with the
earthly and seen as well as with what is not
seen but believed. The Lord (Adonai) reveals
himself to Jacob in a way that makes him aware
that he is now to make a permanent and lasting
covenant with God. Isaac and Abraham already had
done this and opened him to the way by their
commitment to the Lord. The stone on which he
slept becomes a sacred memorial to mark the
place of his encounter with the divine. He crys
out, "How awesome is this shrine! This is
nothing else but an abode of God, and that is
the gateway to heaven!" Jesus himself refers to
this vision or dream of Jacob. It is the Fourth
Gospel that tells us the story of the first five
disciples of Jesus : Andrew, Peter, Philip,
Nathaniel, and an unnamed disciple (the Beloved
Disciple?). He tells them they will experience
greater things than Jacob did. "I solemnly
assure you, you shall see the angels of God
ascending and descending on the Son of
Man." (John 1:51). The five then make their act
of faith in Jesus. "Faith binds us in a special
manner to God.It puts us in contact with God
Himself, our spirit wih God's spirit, our heart
with God's heart, the light of God becomes ours.
" Blessed William J. Chaminade.
