حزقيال 3

Studie

   

1 وقال لي يا ابن آدم كل ما تجده. كل هذا الدرج واذهب كلم بيت اسرائيل.

2 ففتحت فمي فاطعمني ذلك الدرج.

3 وقال لي يا ابن آدم اطعم بطنك واملأ جوفك من هذا الدرج الذي انا معطيكه. فأكلته فصار في فمي كالعسل حلاوة

4 فقال لي يا ابن آدم اذهب امض الى بيت اسرائيل وكلمهم بكلامي.

5 لانك غير مرسل الى شعب غامض اللغة وثقيل اللسان بل الى بيت اسرائيل.

6 لا الى شعوب كثيرة غامضة اللغة وثقيلة اللسان لست تفهم كلامهم. فلو ارسلتك الى هؤلاء لسمعوا لك.

7 لكن بيت اسرائيل لا يشاء ان يسمع لك. لانهم لا يشاؤون ان يسمعوا لي. لان كل بيت اسرائيل صلاب الجباه وقساة القلوب.

8 هانذا قد جعلت وجهك صلبا مثل وجوههم وجبهتك صلبة مثل جباههم.

9 قد جعلت جبهتك كالماس اصلب من الصوان فلا تخفهم ولا ترتعب من وجوههم لانهم بيت متمرد

10 وقال لي يا ابن آدم كل الكلام الذي اكلمك به اوعه في قلبك واسمعه باذنيك.

11 وامض اذهب الى المسبيين الى بني شعبك وكلمهم وقل لهم هكذا قال السيد الرب ان سمعوا وان امتنعوا.

12 ثم حملني روح فسمعت خلفي صوت رعد عظيم مبارك مجد الرب من مكانه.

13 وصوت اجنحة الحيوانات المتلاصقة الواحد باخيه وصوت البكرات معها وصوت رعد عظيم.

14 فحملني الروح واخذني فذهبت مرّا في حرارة روحي ويد الرب كانت شديدة عليّ

15 فجئت الى المسبيين عند تل ابيب الساكنين عند نهر خابور وحيث سكنوا هناك سكنت سبعة ايام متحيرا في وسطهم.

16 وكان عند تمام السبعة الايام ان كلمة الرب صارت اليّ قائلة.

17 يا ابن آدم قد جعلتك رقيبا لبيت اسرائيل. فاسمع الكلمة من فمي وانذرهم من قبلي.

18 اذا قلت للشرير موتا تموت وما انذرته انت ولا تكلمت انذارا للشرير من طريقه الرديئة لإحيائه فذلك الشرير يموت باثمه اما دمه فمن يدك اطلبه.

19 وان انذرت انت الشرير ولم يرجع عن شره ولا عن طريقه الرديئة فانه يموت باثمه. اما انت فقد نجيت نفسك.

20 والبار ان رجع عن بره وعمل اثما وجعلت معثرة امامه فانه يموت. لانك لم تنذره يموت في خطيته ولا يذكر بره الذي عمله. اما دمه فمن يدك اطلبه.

21 وان انذرت انت البار من ان يخطئ البار وهو لم يخطئ فانه حياة يحيا لانه انذر وانت تكون قد نجيت نفسك

22 وكانت يد الرب عليّ هناك وقال لي قم اخرج الى البقعة وهناك اكلمك.

23 فقمت وخرجت الى البقعة واذا بمجد الرب واقف هناك كالمجد الذي رايته عند نهر خابور. فخررت على وجهي

24 فدخل فيّ روح واقامني على قدميّ. ثم كلمني وقال لي. اذهب اغلق على نفسك في وسط بيتك.

25 وانت يا ابن آدم فها هم يضعون عليك ربطا ويقيدونك بها فلا تخرج في وسطهم.

26 وألصق لسانك بحنكك فتبكم ولا تكون لهم رجلا موبخا لانهم بيت متمرد.

27 فاذا كلمتك افتح فمك فتقول لهم هكذا قال السيد الرب. من يسمع فليسمع ومن يمتنع فليمتنع. لانهم بيت متمرد

9926. 'And his voice will be heard' means the inflow of truth among those in heaven and those on earth. This is clear from the meaning of 'being heard' as reception and perception, dealt with in 5017, 5471, 5475, 7216, 8361, 9311, and therefore also an inflowing, since things that are received and perceived must flow in; and from the meaning of 'voice' - when Aaron, who represents the Lord, is the subject - as Divine Truth, dealt with in 8813. For 'voice' means the declaration of that truth; and because the declaration is meant, truth among those in heaven and those on earth is meant. Divine Truth fills all things of heaven, and composes all things of the Church. Such declaration was represented by the 'voice' or sound made by the bells of gold when Aaron 'went into the holy place before Jehovah, and when he came out', as stated by the words that immediately follow in the present verse.

[2] The fact that 'voice' in the Word means Divine Truth that is heard and perceived in heaven and on earth is clear from the following places: In David,

The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters; the voice of Jehovah is powerful; the voice of Jehovah is majestic; the voice of Jehovah breaks the cedars; the voice of Jehovah strikes as a flame of fire; the voice of Jehovah causes the wilderness to shake; the voice of Jehovah causes the hinds to calve. But in His temple everyone says, Glory! Psalms 29:3-9.

The subject in this Psalm is the Divine Truth which destroys falsities and evils. This Divine Truth is meant by 'the voice of Jehovah', but by 'Glory' that is uttered is meant Divine Truth present in heaven and in the Church. For the meaning of 'glory' as Divine Truth, see 9429; and for that of 'temple' as heaven and the Church, 3720.

[3] In John,

He who is the Shepherd of the sheep, to him the gate-keeper opens, and the sheep hear His voice. The sheep follow Him, because they know His voice. A stranger they do not follow, because they do not know the voice of strangers. And other sheep I have which are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will hear My voice. But you are not of My sheep, for My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. John 10:2-5, 16, 26-27.

Here it is plainly evident that 'voice' means Divine Truth emanating from the Lord, which is the Word, 'the voice of strangers' being falsity.

[4] In Isaiah,

The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare the way of Jehovah. For the glory of Jehovah will be revealed. The voice says, Cry! Get up on to the high mountain, O Zion, herald of good tidings; lift up your voice with strength, O Jerusalem, herald of good tidings. Lift it up; [say,] Behold, the Lord Jehovih comes with might. Isaiah 40:3, 5-6, 9-10; John 1:23.

'The voice' here means the declaration from the Word, telling about the Lord's Coming, and therefore also means Divine Truth, which the Word tells. 'The wilderness' is the state of the Church then, which is so to speak in the wilderness because the Word is no longer understood. 'The glory' which will be revealed is the Word on its more internal levels, for which meaning of 'glory' see 9429. 'Jehovah' for whom the way should be prepared, and 'the Lord Jehovih' who is to come in might, is plainly the Lord, for this is what it clearly says.

[5] In Isaiah,

The voice of your watchmen, they will lift up [their] voice, when they see eye to eye that Jehovah returns to Zion. Isaiah 52:8.

'Watchmen' stands for those who search the Scriptures regarding the Lord's Coming. Their 'voice' is the Word, which is Divine Truth, their source. In Jeremiah,

He who makes the earth, by His intelligence He spreads out the heavens; when He utters His voice, 1 there is a multitude of waters in the heavens. Jeremiah 10:12-13; 51:15-16.

'Voice' stands for Divine Truth, 'waters' for truths which are in the heavens and come from the heavens (for the meaning of 'waters' in the Word as truths, see 2702, 3058, 3424, 4976, 5668, 8568, 9323), as also in the Book of Revelation,

[6] ... the voice of the Son of Man as the sound of many waters. Revelation 1:15. I heard a voice from heaven, like the sound of many waters. Revelation 14:2.

And in David,

The voice of Jehovah is upon the waters, Jehovah is upon great waters. Psalms 29:3.

In Joel,

Jehovah uttered His voice before His army; for those who execute His Word are uncountable. Joel 2:11.

Here also 'voice' stands for Divine Truth, as does 'the Word' which they execute. In the same prophet,

Jehovah from Jerusalem will give forth His voice, that the heavens and the earth may be shaken. Joel 3:16.

In David,

O kingdoms of the earth, make melody to the Lord who rides above the heaven of the heaven of old. Behold, He will utter His voice, a mighty voice. 2 Psalms 68:32-33.

In John,

I say to you, that the hour will come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live. John 5:25.

Here, it is evident, 'the voice' means Divine Truth and therefore the Word of the Lord.

[7] In Ezekiel,

The Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me the voice 3 of a great earthquake, Blessed is the glory of Jehovah. And [I heard] the voice 3 of the wings of the living creatures, and the voice 3 of the wheels, and the voice 3 of the great earthquake. Ezekiel 3:12-13.

And after this,

The voice 3 of the wings of the cherubs was heard as far as the outer court, like the voice of God Shaddai when He speaks. Ezekiel 10:5.

Here also 'the voice' is Divine Truth, for by 'the cherubs' is meant the Lord's providence and watchfulness, guarding against access to Himself, or into heaven, except through the good of love, 9277 (end), 9509. 'The voice of the wings' and 'the voice of the wheels' are spiritual truths.

[8] In the present verse, in which Aaron is the subject, the sound or ring from the bells is what 'the voice' refers to. There are also places in the Word in which the sounds or blasts from trumpets, or else the sounds or peals of thunder, are called 'voices', and by these in like manner Divine Truths are meant, see 7573. Furthermore the sounds made by different types of musical instruments have a similar meaning, though those producing separate vibrating notes mean Divine Truths that are spiritual, whereas those producing notes continuing one into the next mean Divine Truths that are celestial, 418-420, 4138, 8337. From this it is evident that by the sounds or 'the voices' of the bells Divine Truths that are spiritual are meant; for Aaron's garments, and in particular the robe, which had the bells on its hem round about, represented the Lord's spiritual kingdom or heaven, 9814, 9825.
