如申命记 11

Studie

   

1 你要耶和華─你的,常守他的吩咐、律例、典章、誡命

2 你們今日當知道,我本不是和你們的兒女說話;因為他們不知道,也沒有耶和華─你們的管教、威嚴、大能的,和伸出來的膀

3 並他在埃及中向埃及法老和其全所行的神蹟奇事;

4 也沒有看見他怎樣待埃及的軍兵、車,他們追趕你們的時候,耶和華怎樣使紅淹沒他們,將他們滅絕,直到今日,

5 並他在曠野怎樣待你們,以至你們到這地方

6 也沒有看見他怎樣待流便子孫以利押的兒子大坍、亞比蘭,怎樣在以色列人中間開了他們和他們的家眷,並帳棚與跟他們的一切活物。

7 惟有你們親眼耶和華所做的一切事。

8 所以,你們要守我今日所吩咐的一切誡命,使你們膽壯,能以進去,得你們所要得的那

9 並使你們的日子在耶和華向你們列祖起誓、應許他們和他們後裔的上得以長久;那是流奶與蜜之

10 你要進去得為業的那,本不像你出埃及。你在那裡撒種,用澆灌,像澆灌菜園一樣。

11 你們要過去得為業的那乃是有有谷、滋潤之

12 耶和華─你所眷顧的;從歲首到年終,耶和華─你的眼目時常看顧那

13 你們若留意從我今日所吩咐的誡命耶和華─你們的,盡心盡性事奉他,

14 他(原文是我)必按時降秋在你們的上,使你們可以收藏五穀、新酒和油,

15 也必使你飽足,並使田野為你的牲畜

16 你們要謹慎,免得心中受迷惑,就偏離正,去事奉敬拜別

17 耶和華的怒氣向你們發作,就使閉塞不下雨也不出產,使你們在耶和華所賜你們的美上速速滅亡。

18 你們要將我這存在心內,留在意中,繫在上為記號,戴在額上為經文;

19 也要教訓你們的兒女,無論在家裡,行在上,躺下,起來,都要談論;

20 又要房屋框上,並城上,

21 使你們和你們子孫的日子在耶和華向你們列祖起誓、應許他們的上得以增多,如的日子那樣多。

22 你們若留意謹守遵行我所吩咐這一切的誡命耶和華─你們的,行他的道,專靠他,

23 他必從你們面前趕出這一切國民,就是比你們更更強的國民,你們也要得他們的地。

24 凡你們掌所踏之地都必歸你們;從曠野和利巴嫩,並伯拉大,直到西,都要作你們的境界。

25 必無一能在你們面前站立得住;耶和華─你們的必照他所的,使懼怕驚恐臨到你們所踏之的居民。

26 哪,我今日將祝福與咒詛的話都陳明在你們面前。

27 你們若耶和華─你們誡命,就是我今日所吩咐你們的,就必蒙福。

28 你們若不耶和華─你們誡命,偏離我今日所吩咐你們的道,去事奉你們素來所不認識的別,就必受禍。

29 及至耶和華─你的領你進入要去得為業的那,你就要將祝福的話陳明在基利心上,將咒詛的話陳明在以巴路上。

30 這二山豈不是在約但河那邊,日落之處,在亞拉巴的迦南人之吉甲相對,靠近摩利橡樹麼?

31 你們要過約但河,進去得耶和華─你們所賜你們為業之,在那居住

32 你們要謹守遵行我今日在你們面前所陳明的一切律例典章。

681. And it became blood as though of a dead man, and every living creature in the sea died. This symbolizes the infernal falsity in those people by which every truth in the Word was extinguished, and so also every truth in the church and in faith.

Blood as though of a dead man, or blood oozing and mixed with pus, symbolizes infernal falsity. For blood symbolizes Divine truth, and in an opposite sense, that truth falsified (no. 379). But blood as though of a dead man symbolizes infernal falsity, inasmuch as death symbolizes the extinction of spiritual life, and so a dead man symbolizes something infernal (nos. 321, 525). That every living creature died means symbolically that every truth in the Word, in the church, and in faith was extinguished. For a living creature symbolizes the truth of faith; accordingly a living creature that has died symbolizes the truth of faith extinguished.

A living creature in the Word, or a soul when referring to a human being, symbolizes his spiritual life, which is also the life of his intellect; and because the intellect is formed by truths, and truths have to do with faith, therefore a living creature or soul symbolizes the truth of faith. That this is the symbolic meaning of a living creature or soul can be seen from many passages in the Word, and also from those that mention both soul and heart. The soul and heart plainly mean a person's life, but it is his life in consequence of his will and intellect, or spiritually speaking, in consequence of his love and wisdom, or of his charity and faith; and the life of the will springing from the goodness of love is meant by heart, while the life of the intellect springing from truths of wisdom or of faith is meant by soul. These are meant by soul and heart in Matthew 22:37, Mark 12:30, 33, Luke 10:27; Deuteronomy 6:5; 10:12; 11:13; 26:16; Jeremiah 32:41; and elsewhere. Also in passages which mention heart by itself and soul by itself.

The reason these terms are used comes from the correspondence of the heart with the will and love, and of the soul's action in the lungs with the intellect and wisdom, as may be seem in Angelic Wisdom Regarding Divine Love and Wisdom, Section Five, where this correspondence is discussed.
