And Jacob went out
Bethel becomes, because of Jacob's vision there, one of the significant places of Scripture. To the Christian it stands for a realization, however imperfect, of the heavenly and spiritual contents of faith, answering to Paul's prayer in (Ephesians 1:17-23). Dispensationally, the scene speaks of Israel the nation, cast out of the Land of Promise because of evil-doing there, but holding the promise of restoration and blessing; (Genesis 28:15); (Deuteronomy 30:1-10). To "an Israelite indeed" Christ speaks of Jacob's vision as to be fulfilled in the Son of man (cf); (Genesis 28:12); (John 1:47-51).
