” …and he took some of the stones of the place and placed them at his head, and he lay down in that place.” (Genesis 28:11) What was “that place,” and what was the nature of those stones that Ya’akov gathered together, and which, upon his awakening from his dream of a House of G-d, formed a single stone, which became the very “foundation stone” upon which all creation is established? And how could the “foundation stone” upon which the entire world rests find itself in that place and at that very moment when Ya’akov chose to take his sleep? It was Ya’akov’s consecration of the stone with olive oil that made the transformation possible.
