John 1:51, καὶ λέγει αὐτῷ, Ἀμὴν ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ὄψεσθε τὸν οὐρανὸν ἀνεῳγότα καὶ τοὺς ἀγγέλους τοῦ θεοῦ ἀναβαίνοντας καὶ καταβαίνοντας ἐπὶ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου

τότε διήνοιξεν αὐτῶν τὸν νοῦν τοῦ συνιέναι τὰς γραφάς

which seems to be about the 1-4 principle of the bible !

the more since it is written:
"v'hinnei sulam mutzav artsah v'rosho maggiya hashamaymah"
and see "sulam" standing on the earth (with four corners) and its (one) head touching the heaven
