43 In Genesis 28 Jacob dreamed that “there was a ladder set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven” (v. 12), and he said that this is “none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven” (v. 17):
5a 在那里,借着梯子,天来到地上,并且地联于天。
5a There heaven came down to the earth, and the earth was joined to heaven by the ladder.
6b This ladder is a type of Christ who, as the Son of Man, with His humanity, is the ladder set up on the earth and leading to heaven, keeping heaven open to earth and joining earth to heaven for the house of God, Bethel—John 1:51; Gen. 28:19.
