Jacob's Ladder

And he dreamed that there was a ladder set upon the earth, the top of it reaching to heaven;
and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.

Genesis 28:12

Jacob's Ladder - Wencesles Hollar


From heaven to earth,

ascending and descending,

angels.

some coming to the soil

of this world,

others returning.


A place of holiness,

where the LORD has stood

and promised offspring,

as the dust.


From heaven to earth,

a dream,

unquestioned upon rising.

The stone beneath his head

is of a sacred place,

a piece of ground blessed by the LORD.
