申命记 16

Studie

   

1 你要注意亚笔,向耶和华─你的逾越节,因为耶和华─你的在亚笔夜间领你出埃及

2 你当在耶和华所选择要立为他名的居所,从牛群羊群中,将逾越节的祭牲献给耶和华─你的

3 这祭牲,不可的饼;日之内要无酵饼,就是困苦饼─你本是急忙出了埃及─要叫你一生一世记念你从埃及出来的日子。

4 在你四境之内,日不可见面,头一日晚上所献的,一点不可留到早晨

5 耶和华─你所赐的各城中,你不可献逾越节的祭;

6 只当在耶和华─你所选择要立为他名的居所,晚上日落的时候,乃是你出埃及的时候,献逾越节的祭。

7 当在耶和华─你所选择的地方把肉烤了(烤:或作),次日早晨就回到你的帐棚去。

8 你要无酵日,第七日要向耶和华─你的守严肃会,不可做工。

9 你要计算日:从你开镰收割禾稼时算起,共计日。

10 你要照耶和华─你所赐你的福,里拿着甘心祭,献在耶和华─你的面前,守七七节。

11 你和你儿女、仆婢,并住在你城里的利未人,以及在你们中间寄居的与孤儿寡妇,都要在耶和华─你所选择立为他名的居所,在耶和华─你的面前欢乐。

12 你也要记念你在埃及作过奴仆。你要谨守遵行这些律例。

13 “你把禾场的谷、酒醡的酒收藏以后,就要守住棚日。

14 守节的时候,你和你儿女、仆婢,并住在你城里的利未人,以及寄居的与孤儿寡妇,都要欢乐。

15 耶和华所选择的地方,你当向耶和华─你的守节日;因为耶和华─你在你一切的土产上和你里所办的事上要赐福与你,你就非常的欢乐。

16 你一切的男丁要在除酵节、七七节、住棚节,一年三次,在耶和华─你所选择的地方朝见他,却不可空手朝见。

17 要按自己的力量,照耶和华─你所赐的福分,奉献礼物。

18 你要在耶和华─你所赐的各城里,按着各支派设立审判长。他们必按公的审判判断百姓。

19 不可屈枉正直;不可看人的外貌。也不可受贿赂;因为贿赂能叫智慧人的眼变瞎了,又能颠倒人的

20 你要追求至公至,好叫你存活,承受耶和华─你所赐你的

21 你为耶和华─你的,不可在旁栽甚麽树木作为偶。

22 也不可为自己设立柱像;这是耶和华─你所恨恶的。

Apocalypse Revealed # 209

209. 'Wretched and poor.' This symbolically means that they have no truths or goods.

Wretched and poor people mean, in the spiritual sense of the Word, people who lack concepts of truth and good, for they are spiritually wretched and poor. They are also meant by the people in the following passages:

I am wretched and poor, O Lord; be mindful of me. (Psalms 40:18) [NCBSP: Psalms 40:17], cf. Psalms 70:5)

Incline Your ear, O Jehovah, and answer me, for I am wretched and poor. (Psalms 86:1)

The impious bare the sword and bend their bow, to cast down the wretched and poor... (Psalms 37:14)

(The impious man) persecuted the wretched and poor man, even to slay the downcast in heart. (Psalms 109:16)

(God) will judge the wretched of the people; He will save the children of the poor... He will deliver the poor man when he cries, and the wretched man... (Psalms 72:4, 12-13)

Jehovah... delivers the wretched man from one who is too strong for him, and the poor man... from those who plunder him. (Psalms 35:10)

(The impious man) devises wicked plans to destroy the wretched with lying words, even when the poor man speaks justly. (Isaiah 37:7)

The wretched shall have their joy in Jehovah, and the poor of mankind shall exult in the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 29:19)

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:3)

See also elsewhere, as Isaiah 10:2; Jeremiah 22:16; Ezekiel 16:49; 18:12; 22:29; Amos 8:4; Psalms 9:18; 69:32-33; 74:21; 109:22; 140:12; Deuteronomy 15:11; 24:14; Luke 14:13, 21, 23.

The wretched and poor mean chiefly people who lack concepts of truth and goodness and yet desire them, since the rich mean people who possess concepts of truth and goodness (no. 206).
