The theme of a staircase leading to God is recorded twice. Once in Genesis and the other in the Gospel of John.
God speaks to individuals who seek Him.
God promised to be with Jacob who was running away after getting his elder brother by a few minutes to let him have the privileges of the eldest son . When Jacob was reconciled with Esau and the other family members, he realised that God wants to the one and only one to be worshipped (Genesis 35:1-7),
When Nathaniel the traditional Jew was introduced to Jesus by his Greek speaking friend Philip, it was about 70 years after the Maccabees clan led in restoring all the ritual that was handed down from Moses' time and removing Greek influence from the Jewish religion. But foreign influence stayed. Nathaniel was sorting out harvested figs when Philip came with Jesus. Nathaniel was a discerning person when seeking God's will and Jesus complimented him for being a true Israelite. Nathaniel is in unity with others of a different background and seeks God's Will with them
