Jacob's night on a stoneJacob left his father Isaac's camp and walked north toward his uncle Laban, in a place called Haran. His brother Esau was angry, and his mother Rebekah had told him to go. Night fell, and Jacob had no house and no bed. He picked up a flat stone and laid his head on it. In a dream he saw a great ladder of light that reached up to heaven. God's messengers went up and down it. Then God promised to be with Jacob wherever he went. Jacob woke full of wonder. In the morning he stood the stone up on its end, poured oil on top, and named the place Bethel, which means house of God.
