Overview

Reflections on Messiah ""Jacob left Beersheba, and he traveled towards Haran. And when he came to acertain place, he spent the night there. He took one of the stones, put it under hishead, and he dosed off. Jacob had a dream in which he saw a stairway (or ladder) setup on the earth, with its top reaching up to the heavens. On it, he saw the angels ofGod ascending-up and descending-down."" (Genesis 28: 10-12)Above the top-rung stood the LORD.""I AM the LORD, the God of your father Abraham, and of Isaac. I (the LORD) will giveyou, and your descendants, the land upon which you now lay. In you and yourdescendants all the families of the earth will find blessing. I AM with you; and I willwatch over (protect) you wherever you go."" (Genesis 28: 14-15)Now, fast forward to the arrival of the Messiah.""Philip (who was from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter) foundNathaniel, and told him, 'We have found the one about whom Moses wrote about inthe Torah, also the Prophets-it's Yeshua Ben-Yosef from Nazareth!"" (John 1: 45)Nathaniel's response to news about the Messiah illustrates how presumptuoushuman nature can be. Nathaniel assumed nothing of value could possibly comefrom the sleepy ""backwards"" village of Nazareth. ""Can anything good come fromNazareth?""""Philip answered, 'Come and see.'"" (John 1: 46)Those with ""eyes of faith"" witness Jacob's Ladder, personified.Yeshua said;""Truly, truly I tell you, you'll see heaven open, and the angels of God going up(ascending) and descending on the Son of Man."" (John 1: 51)
