On his way to Haran to find a wife, Jacob dreamed of a ladder stretching from the earth to heaven, with God standing above it.
In the dream, God renewed with Jacob the same covenants He had made with Abraham and Isaac (see Genesis 28:10β17; see also Genesis 12:2β3; 26:1β4).
President Marion G. Romney shared this thought about what the ladder could represent: βJacob realized that the covenants he made with the Lord there were the rungs on the ladder that he himself would have to climb in order to obtain the promised blessingsβblessings that would entitle him to enter heaven and associate with the Lord. β¦ Temples are to us all what Bethel was to Jacobβ (βTemplesβThe Gates to Heaven,β Ensign, Mar. 1971, 16).
What other words and phrases in Genesis 28:10β22 suggest to you a connection between Jacobβs experience and temple blessings? As you read these verses, think about the covenants you have made; what impressions come to you?
