1 εγενετο δε εν τη βασιλεια τη αμαρφαλ βασιλεως σεννααρ αριωχ βασιλευς ελλασαρ και χοδολλογομορ βασιλευς αιλαμ και θαργαλ βασιλευς εθνων

2 εποιησαν πολεμον μετα βαλλα βασιλεως σοδομων και μετα βαρσα βασιλεως γομορρας και σεννααρ βασιλεως αδαμα και συμοβορ βασιλεως σεβωιμ και βασιλεως βαλακ αυτη εστιν σηγωρ

3 παντες ουτοι συνεφωνησαν επι την φαραγγα την αλυκην αυτη η θαλασσα των αλων

4 δωδεκα ετη εδουλευον τω χοδολλογομορ τω δε τρισκαιδεκατω ετει απεστησαν

5 εν δε τω τεσσαρεσκαιδεκατω ετει ηλθεν χοδολλογομορ και οι βασιλεις οι μετ' αυτου και κατεκοψαν τους γιγαντας τους εν ασταρωθ καρναιν και εθνη ισχυρα αμα αυτοις και τους ομμαιους τους εν σαυη τη πολει

6 και τους χορραιους τους εν τοις ορεσιν σηιρ εως της τερεμινθου της φαραν η εστιν εν τη ερημω

7 και αναστρεψαντες ηλθοσαν επι την πηγην της κρισεως αυτη εστιν καδης και κατεκοψαν παντας τους αρχοντας αμαληκ και τους αμορραιους τους κατοικουντας εν ασασανθαμαρ

8 εξηλθεν δε βασιλευς σοδομων και βασιλευς γομορρας και βασιλευς αδαμα και βασιλευς σεβωιμ και βασιλευς βαλακ αυτη εστιν σηγωρ και παρεταξαντο αυτοις εις πολεμον εν τη κοιλαδι τη αλυκη

9 προς χοδολλογομορ βασιλεα αιλαμ και θαργαλ βασιλεα εθνων και αμαρφαλ βασιλεα σεννααρ και αριωχ βασιλεα ελλασαρ οι τεσσαρες βασιλεις προς τους πεντε

10 η δε κοιλας η αλυκη φρεατα φρεατα ασφαλτου εφυγεν δε βασιλευς σοδομων και βασιλευς γομορρας και ενεπεσαν εκει οι δε καταλειφθεντες εις την ορεινην εφυγον

11 ελαβον δε την ιππον πασαν την σοδομων και γομορρας και παντα τα βρωματα αυτων και απηλθον

12 ελαβον δε και τον λωτ υιον του αδελφου αβραμ και την αποσκευην αυτου και απωχοντο ην γαρ κατοικων εν σοδομοις

13 παραγενομενος δε των ανασωθεντων τις απηγγειλεν αβραμ τω περατη αυτος δε κατωκει προς τη δρυι τη μαμβρη ο αμορις του αδελφου εσχωλ και αδελφου αυναν οι ησαν συνωμοται του αβραμ

14 ακουσας δε αβραμ οτι ηχμαλωτευται λωτ ο αδελφος αυτου ηριθμησεν τους ιδιους οικογενεις αυτου τριακοσιους δεκα και οκτω και κατεδιωξεν οπισω αυτων εως δαν

15 και επεπεσεν επ' αυτους την νυκτα αυτος και οι παιδες αυτου και επαταξεν αυτους και εδιωξεν αυτους εως χωβα η εστιν εν αριστερα δαμασκου

16 και απεστρεψεν πασαν την ιππον σοδομων και λωτ τον αδελφον αυτου απεστρεψεν και τα υπαρχοντα αυτου και τας γυναικας και τον λαον

17 εξηλθεν δε βασιλευς σοδομων εις συναντησιν αυτω μετα το αναστρεψαι αυτον απο της κοπης του χοδολλογομορ και των βασιλεων των μετ' αυτου εις την κοιλαδα την σαυη τουτο ην το πεδιον βασιλεως

18 και μελχισεδεκ βασιλευς σαλημ εξηνεγκεν αρτους και οινον ην δε ιερευς του θεου του υψιστου

19 και ηυλογησεν τον αβραμ και ειπεν ευλογημενος αβραμ τω θεω τω υψιστω ος εκτισεν τον ουρανον και την γην

20 και ευλογητος ο θεος ο υψιστος ος παρεδωκεν τους εχθρους σου υποχειριους σοι και εδωκεν αυτω δεκατην απο παντων

21 ειπεν δε βασιλευς σοδομων προς αβραμ δος μοι τους ανδρας την δε ιππον λαβε σεαυτω

22 ειπεν δε αβραμ προς βασιλεα σοδομων εκτενω την χειρα μου προς τον θεον τον υψιστον ος εκτισεν τον ουρανον και την γην

23 ει απο σπαρτιου εως σφαιρωτηρος υποδηματος λημψομαι απο παντων των σων ινα μη ειπης οτι εγω επλουτισα τον αβραμ

24 πλην ων εφαγον οι νεανισκοι και της μεριδος των ανδρων των συμπορευθεντων μετ' εμου εσχωλ αυναν μαμβρη ουτοι λημψονται μεριδα

1690. That 'the rest fled to the mountain' means that it did not happen to all of them is clear without explanation from the fact that they had now become 'the rest', who fled away. The subject in the internal sense is the temptations which the Lord underwent in childhood, about which nothing is recorded in the New Testament Word. No temptations are recorded there apart from the temptation in the wilderness, or shortly after He came out of the wilderness, and the last temptation later on in Gethsemane and after that. The fact that the Lord's life from earliest childhood right through to the last hour of His life in the world consisted in constant temptation and constant victory is clear from many places in the Old Testament Word; and the fact that it did not end with His temptation in the wilderness is clear from the following in Luke,

After the devil had ended every temptation he departed from Him for a time. Luke 4:13, as well as from His undergoing temptations right through to His death on the Cross, and so to the last hour of His life in the world. From these considerations it is evident that the whole of the Lord's life in the world from earliest childhood consisted in constant temptation and constant victory. The last was when on the Cross He prayed for His enemies, and so for all people in the whole world.

[2] In the part of the Word where the Lord's life is described - in the Gospels - no other temptation, apart from the last, is mentioned than His temptation in the wilderness. More than this was not disclosed to the disciples; and the things which were disclosed seem in the sense of the letter so slight as to amount to scarcely anything at all. For the things that are said, and the replies that are given, do not seem to constitute any temptation at all; yet in fact His temptation in the wilderness was more severe than the human mind can possibly comprehend and believe. Nobody can know what temptation is except someone who has experienced it. The temptation that is recorded in Matthew 4:1-11; Mark 1:12-13; Luke 4:1-13, incorporates in a summary form all temptations, namely this, that out of His love towards the whole human race He fought against self-love and love of the world, with which the hells were filled completely.

[3] All temptation is an attack against the love present in a person, the degree of temptation depending on the degree of that love. If love is not attacked there is no temptation. Destroying another person's love is destroying his very life, for his love is his life. The Lord's life was love towards the whole human race; indeed it was so great and of such a nature as to be nothing other than pure love. Against this life of His, temptations were directed constantly, and this was happening, as has been stated, from earliest childhood through to His last hour in the world. The love that was the Lord's very life is meant by His being hungry and by the devil's saying,

If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread. And Jesus answered, It is written that man will not live by bread alone but by every word of God. Luke 4:2-4; Matthew 4:2-4.

[4] That He fought against love of the world, or against all that constitutes love of the world, is meant by the devil's taking Him on to a high mountain and showing Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time and saying,

To you I will give all this power and their glory, for it has been given to me, and I give it to whom I will. If you, then, will worship before me, it will all be yours. But answering him Jesus said, Get behind Me, satan! for it is written, You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only shall you serve. Luke 4:5-8; Matthew 4:8-10.

[5] That He fought against self-love, and all that constitutes self-love, is meant by these words,

The devil took Him into the holy city, and set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written, He will give His angels charge regarding you, and on their hands they will bear you, lest you strike your foot against a stone. Jesus said to him, Again it is written, You shall not tempt the Lord your God. Matthew 4:5-7; Luke 4:9-12.

Constant victory is meant by the statement that after temptation angels came and ministered to Him, Matthew 4:11; Mark 1:13.

[6] To sum up, the Lord was attacked by all the hells from earliest childhood right through to the last hour of His life in the world. The hells were constantly overpowered, subdued, and vanquished by Him; and this He did solely out of love towards the whole human race. And because this love was not human but Divine, and because the intensity of the love determines that of the temptation, it becomes clear how severe His conflicts were, and on the part of the hells how fierce. That all this was indeed the case I know for sure.

Genesis 14

Проучване

   

1 It happened in the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar, Arioch, king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and Tidal, king of Goiim,

2 that they made war with Bera, king of Sodom, and with Birsha, king of Gomorrah, Shinab, king of Admah, and Shemeber, king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar).

3 All these joined together in the valley of Siddim (the same is the Salt Sea).

4 Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year, they rebelled.

5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer came, and the kings who were with him, and struck the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,

6 and the Horites in their Mount Seir, to Elparan, which is by the wilderness.

7 They returned, and came to En Mishpat (the same is Kadesh), and struck all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that lived in Hazazon Tamar.

8 The king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar) went out; and they set the battle in array against them in the valley of Siddim;

9 against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings against the five.

10 Now the valley of Siddim was full of tar pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and they fell there, and those who remained fled to the hills.

11 They took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their food, and went their way.

12 They took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who lived in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

13 One who had escaped came and told Abram, the Hebrew. Now he lived by the oaks of Mamre, the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner; and these were allies of Abram.

14 When Abram heard that his relative was taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued as far as Dan.

15 He divided himself against them by night, he and his servants, and struck them, and pursued them to Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.

16 He brought back all the goods, and also brought back his relative, Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.

17 The king of Sodom went out to meet him, after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, at the valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley).

18 Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine: and he was priest of God Most High.

19 He blessed him, and said, "blessed be Abram of God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth:

20 and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand." Abram gave him a tenth of all.

21 The king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the people, and take the goods to yourself."

22 Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have lifted up my hand to Yahweh, God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth,

23 that I will not take a thread nor a sandal strap nor anything that is yours, lest you should say, 'I have made Abram rich.'

24 I will accept nothing from you except that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me: Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. Let them take their portion."
