In Jacob's Ladder, Bulgakov begins with the Genesis vision of angels ascending and descending, then follows angelic appearances across Scripture: messengers at decisive thresholds, heavenly hosts, guardians, witnesses, and ministers of divine action. He is not interested in angels as ornament, folklore, or private speculation. His question is theological and exacting: what must the world be like if it can receive divine command, answer it, and be drawn into communion with God through created intermediaries? Working through biblical passages from Jacob's dream to the resurrection narratives and Revelation, Bulgakov develops an account of angelic life bound to his larger vision of creation, Sophia, worship, and the relation between the visible and invisible orders. The work asks readers to move slowly, to follow the scriptural argument, and to take seriously forms of presence that modern habits of thought often dismiss. Its durability lies in this union of exegetical attention, metaphysical daring, and disciplined theological imagination. The audiobook opens with a modern scholarly introductory chapter offering a biography of Bulgakov and a critical appraisal of the work before turning to the text itself.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hidden Treasure Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48238359380209,"sku":"2940201506612","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/5433\/7265\/files\/2940201506612_p0.jpg?v=1780330376","url":"https:\/\/shop.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940201506612","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
