ارميا 3

Studie

   

1 قائلا اذا طلق رجل امرأته فانطلقت من عنده وصارت لرجل آخر فهل يرجع اليها بعد. ألا تتنجس تلك الارض نجاسة. اما انت فقد زنيت باصحاب كثيرين. لكن ارجعي اليّ يقول الرب.

2 ارفعي عينيك الى الهضاب وانظري اين لم تضاجعي. في الطرقات جلست لهم كاعرابي في البرية ونجست الارض بزناك وبشرك.

3 فامتنع الغيث ولم يكن مطر متأخر. وجبهة امرأة زانية كانت لك. أبيت ان تخجلي.

4 ألست من الآن تدعينني يا ابي اليف صباي انت.

5 هل يحقد الى الدهر او يحفظ غضبه الى الابد. ها قد تكلمت وعملت شرورا واستطعت

6 وقال الرب لي في ايام يوشيا الملك. هل رأيت ما فعلت العاصية اسرائيل. انطلقت الى كل جبل عال والى كل شجرة خضراء وزنت هناك.

7 فقلت بعدما فعلت كل هذه ارجعي اليّ فلم ترجع. فرأت اختها الخائنة يهوذا.

8 فرأيت انه لاجل كل الاسباب اذ زنت العاصية اسرائيل فطلقتها واعطيتها كتاب طلاقها لم تخف الخائنة يهوذا اختها بل مضت وزنت هي ايضا

9 وكان من هوان زناها انها نجست الارض وزنت مع الحجر ومع الشجر.

10 وفي كل هذا ايضا لم ترجع اليّ اختها الخائنة يهوذا بكل قلبها بل بالكذب يقول الرب.

11 فقال الرب لي قد بررت نفسها العاصية اسرائيل اكثر من الخائنة يهوذا

12 اذهب وناد بهذه الكلمات نحو الشمال وقل ارجعي ايتها العاصية اسرائيل يقول الرب. لا اوقع غضبي بكم لاني رؤوف يقول الرب. لا احقد الى الابد.

13 اعرفي فقط اثمك انك الى الرب الهك اذنبت وفرّقت طرقك للغرباء تحت كل شجرة خضراء ولصوتي لم تسمعوا يقول الرب.

14 ارجعوا ايها البنون العصاة يقول الرب لاني سدت عليكم فآخذكم واحد من المدينة واثنين من العشيرة وآتي بكم الى صهيون

15 واعطيكم رعاة حسب قلبي فيرعونكم بالمعرفة والفهم.

16 ويكون اذ تكثرون وتثمرون في الارض في تلك الايام يقول الرب انهم لا يقولون بعد تابوت عهد الرب ولا يخطر على بال ولا يذكرونه ولا يتعهدونه ولا يصنع بعد.

17 في ذلك الزمان يسمّون اورشليم كرسي الرب ويجتمع اليها كل الامم الى اسم الرب الى اورشليم ولا يذهبون بعد وراء عناد قلبهم الشرير.

18 في تلك الايام يذهب بيت يهوذا مع بيت اسرائيل ويأتيان معا من ارض الشمال الى الارض التي ملّكت آباءكم اياها.

19 وانا قلت كيف اضعك بين البنين واعطيك ارضا شهية ميراث مجد امجاد الامم. وقلت تدعينني يا ابي ومن ورائي لا ترجعين

20 حقا انه كما تخون المرأة قرينها هكذا خنتموني يا بيت اسرائيل يقول الرب.

21 سمع صوت على الهضاب بكاء تضرعات بني اسرائيل. لانهم عوّجوا طريقهم. نسوا الرب الههم.

22 ارجعوا ايها البنون العصاة فاشفي عصيانكم. ها قد أتينا اليك لانك انت الرب الهنا.

23 حقا باطلة هي الآكام ثروة الجبال. حقا بالرب الهنا خلاص اسرائيل.

24 وقد اكل الخزي تعب آبائنا منذ صبانا غنمهم وبقرهم بنيهم وبناتهم.

25 نضطجع في خزينا ويغطينا خجلنا لاننا الى الرب الهنا اخطأنا نحن وآباؤنا منذ صبانا الى هذا اليوم ولم نسمع لصوت الرب الهنا

158. ADDITIONAL NOTE

Since this chapter has dealt with the Holy Spirit, it is of importance to note that the Holy Spirit is nowhere named in the Old Testament Word, but only 'the Spirit of holiness' in three passages, one in the Psalms of David (Psalms 51:11), and two in Isaiah (Isaiah 63:10-11). But there are frequent references in the New Testament Word, as much in the Gospels as in the Acts of the Apostles and in their Epistles. The reason is that the Holy Spirit first existed when the Lord came into the world, for it came out of Him from the Father; for 'the Lord alone is holy' (Revelation 15:4). For this reason too the angel Gabriel speaking to Mary the mother of Jesus said 'the holy thing which will be born of you' (Luke 1:35). The reason why we read 'The Holy Spirit was not yet, because Jesus was not yet glorified' (John 7:39), although it was said earlier that the Holy Spirit filled Elizabeth (Luke 1:41) and Zechariah (Luke 1:67), as well as Simeon (Luke 2:25), was that it was the spirit of Jehovah the Father which filled them; and it was called the Holy Spirit because the Lord was already at that time in the world.

This is why nowhere in the Old Testament Word does it say that the Prophets spoke from the Holy Spirit, but from Jehovah. For everywhere we read 'Jehovah spoke to me', 'The Word from Jehovah came to me', 'Jehovah said', 'The saying of Jehovah.'

To remove all possibility of doubt I propose to quote the passages solely in Jeremiah where these expressions occur:

2:1-5, 9, 19, 22, 29, 31;

3:1, 6, 10, 12, 14, 16;

26:1-2, 18;

32:1, 6, 14-15, 25-26, 28, 30, 36, 42, 44;

33:1-2, 4, 10-13, 17, 19-20, 23, 25;

34:1-2, 4, 8, 12-13, 22;

35:1, 13, 17-19;

36:1, 6, 27, 29-30;

37:6-7, 9;

38:2-3, 17;

39:15-18;

40:1;

42:7, 9, 15, 18-19;

43:8, 10;

44:1-2, 7, 11, 24-26, 30;

45:2, 5;

46:1, 23, 25, 28;

47:1;

48:1, 8, 12, 30, 35, 38, 40, 43-44, 47;

49:2, 5-7, 12-13, 16, 18, 26, 28, 30, 32, 35, 37-39;

50:1, 4, 10, 18, 20-21, 30-31, 33, 35, 40;

51:25, 33, 36, 39, 52, 58.

These are solely from Jeremiah. There are similar expressions in all the other Prophets, but it is never said that the Holy Spirit spoke, nor that Jehovah spoke to them by means of the Holy Spirit.

Jeremiah 19

Studie

   

1 Thus said Yahweh, Go, and buy a potter's earthen bottle, and [take] of the elders of the people, and of the elders of the priests;

2 and go forth to the valley of the son of Hinnom, which is by the entry of the gate Harsith, and proclaim there the words that I shall tell you;

3 and say, Hear the word of Yahweh, kings of Judah, and inhabitants of Jerusalem: thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, Behold, I will bring evil on this place, which whoever hears, his ears shall tingle.

4 Because they have forsaken me, and have estranged this place, and have burned incense in it to other gods, that they didn't know, they and their fathers and the kings of Judah; and have filled this place with the blood of innocents,

5 and have built the high places of Baal, to burn their sons in the fire for burnt offerings to Baal; which I didn't command, nor spoke it, neither came it into my mind:

6 therefore, behold, the days come, says Yahweh, that this place shall no more be called Topheth, nor The valley of the son of Hinnom, but The valley of Slaughter.

7 I will make void the counsel of Judah and Jerusalem in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hand of those who seek their life: and their dead bodies will I give to be food for the birds of the sky, and for the animals of the earth.

8 I will make this city an astonishment, and a hissing; everyone who passes thereby shall be astonished and hiss because of all its plagues.

9 I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters; and they shall eat everyone the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the distress, with which their enemies, and those who seek their life, shall distress them.

10 Then you shall break the bottle in the sight of the men who go with you,

11 and shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh of Armies: Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter's vessel, that can't be made whole again; and they shall bury in Topheth, until there be no place to bury.

12 Thus will I do to this place, says Yahweh, and to its inhabitants, even making this city as Topheth:

13 and the houses of Jerusalem, and the houses of the kings of Judah, which are defiled, shall be as the place of Topheth, even all the houses on whose roofs they have burned incense to all the army of the sky, and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.

14 Then came Jeremiah from Topheth, where Yahweh had sent him to prophesy; and he stood in the court of Yahweh's house, and said to all the people:

15 Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel, Behold, I will bring on this city and on all its towns all the evil that I have pronounced against it; because they have made their neck stiff, that they may not hear my words.
