He said, "I am the Lord, the God of your grandfather Abraham and the God of your father Isaac. I will give you and your descendants the ground you are lying on. [.] I will not leave you until I have done what I promised you!" And Jacob awaked out of his sleep, and he said: Surely the LORD is in this place; and I knew it not. And he was afraid, and said: How dreadful is this place! This is none other but the house of Elohim, (or Elohim in his house) and this is the gate of heaven". [.] And he called the name of that place Bethel: but the name of that city was called Luz at the first. ( Genesis 28, 12-19)

And as in every natural generation, there must be a fit and convenient receptacle , with a certain consonance of similitude to the father: so likewise in this artificial generation, it is requisite that the Sun has a fitted and consonant receptacle for his seed and tincture: and this is Philosophers silver. And therefore it follows, the Moon is his mother ". (Hortulanus, Commentary on the Emerald Tablet)

And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem , coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
