1. He finds him in Bethel, Gen. 28. 10. yea indeed, for Jacob he lay asleep, with a stone under his head, he saw a vision of Angels ascending, and descending from Heaven and God speak excellent things unto him. But the Note is,

That God finds his People many times when they little think 1of him: He comes unto his People in waies of mercy when they scarce dream of it: Jacob was but in a dream at this time, and yet God came in very wonderful waies of mercy towards him.
