II. The Revelation, vv. 12-15. Jacob
I was not In reality alone. Both God
and hla angels were there In that lone-
ly desert place, Ps. 34:7-139:7. It
was not an accident that caused Jacob
to dream that night. Undoubtedly this
dream came from God. Dreams were
frequently used of God as a means of
revelation, a method that Is not need-
ful now that we have the holy spirit,
John 76:1 -L Verily all heaven was at
Jacob's right band.
There are three distinguishing fea-
tures about tills revelation: (1) The
Ladder. This might have been sug-
gested to Jacob by the nature of the
mountainous country ovor which he
had beeii or was passing. A ladder Is
a means whereby we attain unto tho
higher things; (2) The Angels. They
were first uscending, then descending;
suggesting. In his extremity, Jacob’s
ascending prayer and God’®, descend-
ing answer thereto. In this the hour
of Jacob's deepest trial God stood at
tho top of the ladder ready to reveal
himself and to Buccor: see 35:3. There
Is In point of fact a close and a real
connection between earth and heaven,
only a veil Intervenes. Jesus Is our
means of communication between a
holy God and sinful men. John 14:6,

As Others View It
It will be generally conceded
by all lovers of health, happiness
and home contentment that when
tin* jieople of a town start a clean
up campaign they ought to carry
it clean through.
Of late years this matter of
cleaning up has become a habit , , ,
in Texas. F.very mail brings t"«t ^ the dar,t 8,de of

There is absolutely no way to
keep a “do it-now” town down.
When anyone comes to our
town grasp liim by the hand and
tell him what bright prospeets
the town has. Don’t stand around

long faces with gloomy looks

awakened and the ladder was re-
moved, but the revelation remained.
The presence, the keeping power, the
guidance and the ultimately finished
work in Jacob's life remained after
the dream had pnssed. So much was
bo impressed with this that he ex-
claims: "Surely the Lord Is In this
place.” Jacob's fear (v. 17) Is the be- j
ginning of wisdom, Ps. 111:10, see j
also 32:28. The words “gate of
heaven,” v. 17, signifies the gate to a
populous city; in like manner j
have the promise of an encamping
host ever about us, Ps. 34:7, 2; Kings
6:16,17. Jacob went a step further, j

Jacob erected a memorial, and pour-
