Kol HaKavod Chaim, I agree with everything you say in this Dvar Torah.
One issue which you could have touched on is that in this very dream of Yakovs Hashem promises the land to him and his descendants, the children of Israel.
Genesis 28:12-17
12. And he dreamed, and behold! a ladder set up on the ground and its top reached to heaven; and behold, angels of G-d were ascending and descending upon it.
13. And behold, the Lord was standing over him, and He said, "I am the Lord, the G-d of Abraham your father, and the G-d of Isaac; the land upon which you are lying to you I will give it and to your seed.
14. And your seed shall be as the dust of the earth, and you shall gain strength westward and eastward and northward and southward; and through you shall be blessed all the families of the earth and through your seed.
15. And behold, I am with you, and I will guard you wherever you go, and I will restore you to this land, for I will not forsake you until I have done what I have spoken concerning you."
16. And Jacob awakened from his sleep, and he said, "Indeed, the Lord is in this place, and I did not know [it]."
17. And he was frightened, and he said, "How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of G-d, and this is the gate of heaven."
