Jacob’s Ladder

Jacob’s Ladder may have represented the earthly, physical covenant between God and the children of Israel. Jesus Christ, as the new ladder and mediator, would initiate a new spiritual covenant made available to everyone. He would exchange our sins for his righteousness so that we could know God and experience the intimate relationship he intended from the beginning.

God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

2 Corinthians 5:21
