1 ויקרא יצחק אל־יעקב ויברך אתו ויצוהו ויאמר לו לא־תקח אשה מבנות כנען׃

2 קום לך פדנה ארם ביתה בתואל אבי אמך וקח־לך משם אשה מבנות לבן אחי אמך׃

3 ואל שדי יברך אתך ויפרך וירבך והיית לקהל עמים׃

4 ויתן־לך את־ברכת אברהם לך ולזרעך אתך לרשתך את־ארץ מגריך אשר־נתן אלהים לאברהם׃

5 וישלח יצחק את־יעקב וילך פדנה ארם אל־לבן בן־בתואל הארמי אחי רבקה אם יעקב ועשו׃

6 וירא עשו כי־ברך יצחק את־יעקב ושלח אתו פדנה ארם לקחת־לו משם אשה בברכו אתו ויצו עליו לאמר לא־תקח אשה מבנות כנען׃

7 וישמע יעקב אל־אביו ואל־אמו וילך פדנה ארם׃

8 וירא עשו כי רעות בנות כנען בעיני יצחק אביו׃

9 וילך עשו אל־ישמעאל ויקח את־מחלת בת־ישמעאל בן־אברהם אחות נביות על־נשיו לו לאשה׃ ס

10 ויצא יעקב מבאר שבע וילך חרנה׃

11 ויפגע במקום וילן שם כי־בא השמש ויקח מאבני המקום וישם מראשתיו וישכב במקום ההוא׃

12 ויחלם והנה סלם מצב ארצה וראשו מגיע השמימה והנה מלאכי אלהים עלים וירדים בו׃

13 והנה יהוה נצב עליו ויאמר אני יהוה אלהי אברהם אביך ואלהי יצחק הארץ אשר אתה שכב עליה לך אתננה ולזרעך׃

14 והיה זרעך כעפר הארץ ופרצת ימה וקדמה וצפנה ונגבה ונברכו בך כל־משפחת האדמה ובזרעך׃

15 והנה אנכי עמך ושמרתיך בכל אשר־תלך והשבתיך אל־האדמה הזאת כי לא אעזבך עד אשר אם־עשיתי את אשר־דברתי לך׃

16 וייקץ יעקב משנתו ויאמר* אכן יש יהוה במקום הזה ואנכי לא ידעתי׃

17 ויירא ויאמר מה־נורא המקום הזה אין זה כי אם־בית אלהים וזה שער השמים׃

18 וישכם יעקב בבקר ויקח את־האבן אשר־שם מראשתיו וישם אתה מצבה ויצק שמן על־ראשה׃

19 ויקרא את־שם־המקום ההוא בית־אל ואולם לוז שם־העיר לראשנה׃

20 וידר יעקב נדר לאמר אם־יהיה אלהים עמדי ושמרני בדרך הזה אשר אנכי הולך ונתן־לי לחם לאכל ובגד ללבש׃

21 ושבתי בשלום אל־בית אבי והיה יהוה לי לאלהים׃

22 והאבן הזאת אשר־שמתי מצבה יהיה בית אלהים וכל אשר תתן־לי עשר אעשרנו לך׃

3714. Verses 16-17. And Jacob awoke out of his sleep, and he said, Surely Jehovah is in this place; and I knew it not. And he feared, and said, How terrible is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven. “And Jacob awoke out of his sleep,” signifies enlightenment; “and he said, Surely Jehovah is in this place,” signifies the Divine in this state; “and I knew it not,” signifies in an obscure state; “and he feared,” signifies a sacred alteration; “and said, How terrible is this place,” signifies the sanctity of the state; “this is none other than the house of God,” signifies the Lord’s kingdom in the ultimate of order; “and this is the gate of heaven,” signifies the ultimate in which order closes, through which ultimate there is apparently an entrance from nature.

Genesis 28

Studie

   

1 Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, "You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.

2 Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father. Take a wife from there from the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.

3 May God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,

4 and give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your seed with you, that you may inherit the land where you travel, which God gave to Abraham."

5 Isaac sent Jacob away. He went to Paddan Aram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, Rebekah's brother, Jacob's and Esau's mother.

6 Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take him a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a command, saying, "You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan,"

7 and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Paddan Aram.

8 Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan didn't please Isaac, his father.

9 Esau went to Ishmael, and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.

10 Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.

11 He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.

12 He dreamed. Behold, a stairway set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. Behold, the angels of God ascending and descending on it.

13 Behold, Yahweh stood above it, and said, "I am Yahweh, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. The land whereon you lie, to you will I give it, and to your seed.

14 Your seed will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. In you and in your seed will all the families of the earth be blessed.

15 Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you."

16 Jacob awakened out of his sleep, and he said, "Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I didn't know it."

17 He was afraid, and said, "How dreadful is this place! This is none other than God's house, and this is the gate of heaven."

18 Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on its top.

19 He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city was Luz at the first.

20 Jacob vowed a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothing to put on,

21 so that I come again to my father's house in peace, and Yahweh will be my God,

22 then this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, will be God's house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give the tenth to you."
