約拿書 2

Studie

   

1 約拿在魚腹中禱告耶和華─他的

2 :我遭遇患難求告耶和華,你就應允我;從陰間的深處呼求,你就俯我的聲音。

3 你將我投下淵,就是深處;大水環繞我,你的波浪洪濤都漫過我身。

4 :我從你眼前雖被驅逐,我仍要仰望你的殿。

5 諸水環繞我,幾乎淹沒我;深淵圍住我;海草纏繞我的

6 山根的門將我永遠關住。耶和華─我的啊,你卻將我的性命從坑中救出來。

7 我心在我裡面發昏的時候,我就想念耶和華。我的禱告進入你的殿,達到你的面前。

8 那信奉虛無之神的人,離棄憐愛他們的主;

9 但我必用感謝的聲音獻祭與你。我所許的願,我必償還。救恩出於耶和華

10 耶和華吩咐魚,魚就把約拿吐在旱地上。

God

  
Ancient of Days, by William Blake

When the Bible speaks of "Jehovah," it is representing love itself, the inmost love that is the essence of the Lord. That divine love is one, whole and complete in itself, and Jehovah also is one, a name applied only to the Lord. The divine love expresses itself in the form of wisdom. Love, then, is the essence of God -- His inmost. Wisdom -- the loving understanding of how to put love into action -- is slightly more external, giving love a way to express itself. Wisdom, however, is expressed in a great variety of thoughts and ideas, what the Writings collectively call divine truth. There are also many imaginary gods, and sometimes angels and people can be called gods (the Lord said Moses would be as a god to Aaron). So when the Bible calls the Lord "God," it is in most cases referring to divine truth. In other cases, "God" has reference to what is called the divine human. The case there is this: As human beings, we cannot engage the Lord directly as divine love. It is too powerful and too pure. Instead, we have to approach Him by understanding Him through divine truth. Divine truth, then, is the Lord in human form, a form we can approach and understand. Thus "God" is also used in reference to this human aspect, because it is an expression of truth.
