弥迦书 6

Проучване

   

1 以色列人哪,当耶和华的话!要起来岭争辩,使冈陵你的话。

2 岭和永久的根基啊,要耶和华争辩的话!因为耶和华要与他的百姓争辩,与以色列争论。

3 我的百姓啊,我向你做了甚麽呢?我在甚麽事上使你厌烦?你可以对我证明。

4 我曾将你从埃及领出来,从作奴仆之家救赎你;我也差遣摩西亚伦,和米利暗在你前面行。

5 我的百姓啊,你们当追念摩押王巴勒所设的谋和比珥的儿子巴兰回答他的话,并你们从什亭到吉甲所遇见的事,好使你们知道耶和华的作为。

6 我朝见耶和华,在至面前跪拜,当献上甚麽呢?岂可献一岁的犊为燔祭麽?

7 耶和华岂喜悦的公,或是万万的麽?我岂可为自己的过献我的长子麽?为心中的恶献我身所生的麽?

8 世人哪,耶和华已指示你何为善。他向你所要的是甚麽呢?只要你行公义,怜悯,存谦卑的心,与你的同行。

9 耶和华向这城呼叫,智慧人必敬畏他的名。你们当是谁派定刑杖的惩罚。

10 恶人家中不仍有非义之财和可恶的小升斗麽?

11 我若用不公道的天平和囊中诡诈的法码,岂可算为清洁呢?

12 城里的富户满行强暴;其中的居民谎言,中的舌头是诡诈的。

13 因此,我击打你,使你的伤痕甚重,使你因你的恶荒凉。

14 你要,却不饱;你的虚弱必显在你中间。你必挪去,却不得护;所护的,我必交

15 你必撒种,却不得收割;踹橄榄,却不得抹身;踹葡萄,却不得酒

16 因为你守暗利的恶规,行亚哈一切所行的,顺从他们的计谋;因此,我必使你荒凉,使你的居民令人嗤笑,你们也必担当我民的羞辱。

220. Internal Meaning of Micah, Chapter 6

Against the Jewish nation. (2)

1-4 The Lord offered every good to them. (2)

5 He protected them. (2)

6-8 The Lord is not approached by externals of worship, but by internals, which are of truth and good. (2)

9 The life of truth and good should be loved, (2)

10-11 and not the life of falsity and evil. (2)

12 There is falsification of truth with them. (2, 3)

13 They could not be brought back by punishments; (2)

14-16 therefore it must needs be that this church, having been overthrown, should perish. (2)

--------------------

Editor's Introduction: In this work, Emanuel Swedenborg outlined the internal meaning of all the Prophetical Books, from Isaiah to Malachi, and the Psalms, and then the first 16 chapters of Genesis. It provides a survey of the inner meaning of a substantial portion of the Old Testament, in one place.

This work was written by Swedenborg in Latin, in 1761. It was translated from Latin into English by Rev. J. E. Schreck, and this translation was published by the Swedenborg Foundation, in New York, in 1900. This modified version of Schreck's 1900 translation does not update the text; instead just modifying numbering and formatting for clarity of use online.

Each chapter of each book of the Prophets has one corresponding numbered section in Swedenborg's explanation of its inner meaning, or internal sense. Swedenborg listed the verses that relate to each outlined point. We have added hyperlinks to the verse references, shown to the left of each outlined point. The Psalms and initial chapters of Genesis are treated in a similar fashion.

This work was not published by Swedenborg, but it is consistent with other more detailed treatments made in his published works. For example, Swedenborg refers to this work in Doctrine of the Lord 37.

Readers may also find these comparisons useful:

- No. 124 of this work, explaining Ezekiel 1, with The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Sacred Scripture 97,

- Nos. 161, 162, explaining Ezekiel 38, and 39, with Apocalypse Revealed 859,

- No. 236, explaining Zechariah 4, with Apocalypse Revealed 43, and

- Nos. 244-246 of this work, explaining Zechariah 12, 13, 14, with Apocalypse Revealed 707.

In the manuscript, at the beginning, Swedenborg wrote out a list of works that he intended to write and publish. While it's clearly related to the project of outlining the internal meaning of the Prophets, Psalms, and historical parts of the Word, it seems to be an independent list. We reproduce Rev. Schreck's translation of that list here:

"To Be Published:

1. Concerning the Lord.

2. Concerning the Sacred Scripture or concerning the Word of the Lord.

3. All things of religion and of the worship of God in one complex in the Decalogue.

4. Concerning Faith.

5. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine Providence.

6. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine omnipotence and omniscience, and concerning infinity and eternity.

7. Angelic wisdom concerning life.

8. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine love and Divine wisdom."

Бележки под линия:

1. In the original Latin manuscript, Swedenborg cross-referred the outlined internal sense to a more general Table of Subjects, shown above. In the following passages, those references are shown in parentheses, e.g. (3) would refer to subject number 3 above. We received the Latin text for this "front matter" from the Heavenly Doctrines Publishing Foundation.

2. Editor's Note (Schreck): No. 14 is crossed out by Swedenborg in his MS., and is never referred to in the text. It reads, "The state of unition with His Divine," which is the same as No. 10.

Doctrine of the Lord 3 for an outline of a similar set of themes that form the internal sense of the prophetical books.
