Jacob and his vision of angels going up and down from heaven


(Vatican Radio) Our favourite scripture scholar Mark Benedict Coleridge, Archbishop of Brisbane in Australia tells the tale of a character from our family tree of faith for his series 'Blood, Sweat and Tears in the Bible'. He's Jacob, the son of Isaac and Rebecca and therefore the grandson of Abraham and Sara. One to whom God appears in the midst of a dark world of fear in that extraordinary scene at Bethel that we know as Jacob's ladder when he has this vision of the angels going up and down from heaven.
