申命记 32

Studie

   

1 哪,侧耳,我要说话;愿中的言语。

2 我的教训要淋漓如;我的言语要滴落如,如细降在嫩上,如甘霖降在菜蔬中。

3 我要宣告耶和华的名;你们要将大德归与我们的

4 他是磐石,他的作为完全;他所行的无不公平,是诚实无伪的神,又公,又正直。

5 这乖僻弯曲的世代向他行事邪僻;有这弊病就不是他的儿女。

6 愚昧无知的民哪,你们这样报答耶和华麽?他岂不是你的父、将你买来的麽?他是制造你、建立你的。

7 你当追想上古之日,思念历之年;问你的父亲,他必指示你;问你的长者,他必告诉你。

8 者将地业赐给列邦,将世人分开,就照以色列人的数目立定万民的疆界。

9 耶和华的分本是他的百姓;他的产业本是雅各

10 耶和华遇见他在旷野─荒凉野兽吼叫之,就环绕他,看顾他,保护他,如同保护眼中的瞳人。

11 又如搅动窝,在雏以上两搧展,接取雏,背在两翼之上。

12 这样,耶和华独自引导他,并无外邦神与他同在。

13 耶和华使他乘驾处,得田间的土产;又使他从磐石中咂蜜,从坚石中

14 也吃牛的奶油的奶,羔的脂,巴珊所出的公绵和山,与上好的麦子,也葡萄汁酿的酒。

15 但耶书仑渐渐肥胖,粗壮,光润,跳,奔跑,便离弃造他的,轻看他的磐石;

16 敬拜别神,触动神的愤恨,行可憎恶的事,惹了他的怒气。

17 所祭祀的鬼魔并非真,乃是素不认识的,是近新兴的,是你列祖所不畏惧的。

18 你轻忽生你的磐石,忘记产你的神。

19 耶和华见他的儿女惹动他,就厌恶他们,说:

20 我要向他们掩面,他们的结局如何。他们本是极乖僻的族类,心中无诚实的儿女。

21 他们以那不算为神的触动我的愤恨,以虚无的神惹了我的怒气。我也要以那不成子民的触动他们的愤恨,以愚昧的国民惹了他们的怒气。

22 因为在我怒中有烧起,直烧到极深的阴间,把的出产尽都焚烧,根基也烧着了。

23 我要将祸患堆在他们身上,把我的向他们射尽。

24 他们必因饥饿消瘦,被炎热苦吞灭。我要打发野兽牙齿咬他们,并土中腹行的,用气害他们。

25 外头有刀,内室有惊恐,使丧亡,使少、童女、吃奶的、白发的,尽都灭绝。

26 ,我必将他们分散远方,使他们的名号从人间除灭。

27 惟恐仇敌惹动我,只怕敌人错看,:是我们的能力,并非耶和华所行的。

28 因为以色列民毫无计谋,心中没有聪明。

29 惟愿他们有智慧,能明白这事,肯思念他们的结局。

30 若不是他们的磐石了他们,若不是耶和华交出他们,人焉能追赶他们人?人焉能使万人逃跑呢?

31 据我们的仇敌自己断定,他们的磐石不如我们的磐石。

32 他们的葡萄树是所多玛的葡萄树,蛾摩拉田园所生的;他们的葡萄是毒葡萄,全挂都是苦的。

33 他们的酒是大蛇的气,是虺蛇残害的恶

34 这不都是积蓄在我这里,封锁在我府中麽?

35 他们失的时候,伸冤报应在我;因他们遭灾的日子近了;那要临在他们身上的必速速来到。

36 耶和华见他百姓毫无能力,无论困住的、自由的都没有剩下,就必为他们伸冤,为他的仆人後悔。

37 他必:他们的,他们所投靠的磐石,

38 就是向来他们祭牲的脂油,他们奠祭之酒的,在那里呢?他可以兴起帮助你们,护卫你们。

39 你们如今要知道:我,惟有我是;在我以外并无别。我使人死,我使人活;我损伤,我也医治,并无人能从我中救出来。

40 我向:我凭我的永生起誓:

41 我若磨我闪亮的刀,掌审判之权,就必报复我的敌人,报应恨我的人。

42 我要使我的饮血饮醉,就是被杀被掳之人的血。我的刀要,乃是仇敌中首领之

43 你们外邦人当与主的百姓一同欢呼;因他要伸他仆人流血的冤,报应他的敌人,洁净他的地,救赎他的百姓。

44 摩西和嫩的儿子约书亚去将这歌的一切给百姓听。

45 摩西以色列众人说完了这一切的

46 :我今日所警教你们的,你们都要放在心上;要吩咐你们的子孙谨守遵行这律法上的

47 因为这不是虚空、与你们无关的事,乃是你们的生命;在你们过约但河要得为业的地上必因这事日子得以长久。

48 当日,耶和华吩咐摩西

49 你上这亚巴琳中的尼波去,在摩押耶利哥相对,观我所要赐以色列人为业的迦南

50 你必在你所登的上,归你列祖(原文作本民)去,像你哥哥亚伦在何珥上,归他的列祖一样。

51 因为你们在寻的旷野,加低斯的米利巴水,在以色列人中没有尊我为,得罪了我。

52 我所赐以色列人,你可以远远,却不得进去。

6377. He washes his clothing in wine. That this signifies that His natural is Divine truth from His Divine good, is evident from the signification of “washing,” as being to purify (see n. 3147); from the signification of “wine,” as being the good of love toward the neighbor, and the good of faith, and in the supreme sense Divine truth from the Divine good of the Lord (of which presently); and from the signification of “clothing,” as being what is exterior, which covers what is interior (n. 5248); thus the natural, for this is exterior, and covers the rational which is interior; hence also “clothing” denotes truth, because truth is exterior, and covers good which is interior (n. 2576, 4545, 4763, 5319, 5954).

[2] That “wine” denotes love toward the neighbor and the good of faith, may be seen from what has been shown in respect to the bread and wine in the Holy Supper (n. 2165, 2177, 3464, 4581, 5915), namely, that the “bread” is the good of celestial love, and that the “wine” is the good of spiritual love. This may be seen also from the meat-offering and the drink-offering in the sacrifices, in which the “meat-offering” signified the good of love, and the “drink-offering” the good of faith, the meat-offering consisting of such things as signified the good of love, and the drink-offering of wine which signified the good of faith; moreover the very sacrifices were called “bread” (n. 2165). That a drink-offering of wine was employed in the sacrifices may be seen in Exodus 29:40; Leviticus 23:1 2, 13, 18, 19; Numbers 15:2-15; 28:6-7, 18 end; 29:1-7.

[3] That “wine” signifies love toward the neighbor and the good of faith, is plain also from Isaiah:

Everyone that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no silver; come ye, buy and eat; yea come, buy wine and milk without silver and without price (Isaiah 55:1);

everyone must know that they were not to buy wine and milk, but that which is signified by wine and milk, that is, love toward the neighbor and faith; these are given by the Lord without silver and without price.

[4] And in Hosea:

The threshing-floor and the winepress shall not feed them, and the new wine shall deceive them. Ephraim shall return into Egypt, and they shall eat what is unclean in Assyria. They shall not pour out wine to Jehovah; and their sacrifices shall not be pleasing unto Him (Hos. 9:2-4);

here also in the internal sense are meant the good of love and the good of faith, that they ceased; the good of love is the “threshing-floor,” from the grain there and the bread that comes from it; and the good of faith is the “wine press,” the “new wine,” and the “libation of wine:” that “Ephraim shall return into Egypt” denotes that the intellectual should consult memory-knowledges with respect to the secrets of faith; “they shall eat what is unclean in Assyria” denotes that which results from the consequent reasoning. (That “Ephraim” is the intellectual of the church, may be seen, n. 5354, 6222, 6238, 6267; also that “Egypt” is memory-knowledge, n. 1164, 1165, 1186, 1462, 5702; and “Assyria” reasoning, n. 1186.) Moreover the very connection shows that there is more in the words than appears in the letter; for in the internal sense there is coherence, but not in the external; as when it is said that “the threshing-floor and the winepress shall not feed them,” and that “the new wine shall deceive them,” and presently that “Ephraim shall return into Egypt, and they shall eat what is unclean in Assyria;” and moreover without the internal sense what could be meant by “Ephraim returning into Egypt,” and by their “eating what is unclean in Assyria?”

[5] The cessation of mutual love and of the good of faith is also described by a “winepress” and “wine” in Jeremiah:

Upon thy vintage hath the waster fallen; whence gladness was gathered, and joy from Carmel, and from the land of Moab, for I have caused wine to cease from the winepresses; he will not tread hedad 1 (Jeremiah 48:32-33).

[6] That “wine” signifies the good of mutual love and of faith, is plain also in John:

I heard a voice out of the midst of the four animals saying, Hurt not the oil and the wine (Revelation 6:6); where “oil” is the good of celestial love; and “wine,” the good of spiritual love.

[7] The like is meant by “oil and wine” in the Lord’s parable about the Samaritan, in Luke:

A certain Samaritan as he journeyed, and seeing him who had been wounded by thieves, was moved with compassion, wherefore coming to him he bound up his wounds, pouring in oil and wine (Luke 10:33-34); where “pouring in oil and wine” signifies that he performed the works of love and of charity. (That “oil” denotes the good of love may be seen above, n. 886, 3728) The like was meant by the ancients pouring oil and wine upon a pillar when they sanctified it (Genesis 35:14; n. 4581, 4582).

[8] That “wine” denotes the good of love and of faith, is plain from the Lord’s words which He said of wine when He instituted the Holy Supper:

I say to you that I will not drink henceforth of this product of the vine until that day when I shall drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom (Matthew 26:29; Luke 22:17-18);

everyone can see that He would not drink wine there, but that there is signified the good of love and of faith, which He would give to those who are of His kingdom. The like is signified by “wine” in Isaiah 24:9, 11; Lam. 2:11-12; Hos. 14:7; Amos 9:13-14; Zech. 9:15, 17; Luke 5:37-39.

[9] As “wine” signifies the good of love and of faith, therefore in the supreme sense it signifies the Divine truth from the Divine good of the Lord, for from this by influx the man who receives it has the good of love and of faith.

[10] As most expressions in the Word have also a contrary sense, so also has “wine,” in which sense “wine” signifies falsity from evil, as in Isaiah:

Woe unto them that rise up in the morning under the dawn, and follow strong drink; that tarry into the twilight, that wine may inflame them! Woe to the heroes to drink wine, and to men of strength to mingle strong drink! (Isaiah 5:11, 22).

Again:

These also err through wine, and through strong drink go astray; the priest and the prophet err through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they go astray through strong drink; they err among the seer, they stumble in judgment (Isaiah 28:7).

The shepherds know not to understand, they all look back to their own way. Come ye, I will take wine, and we will be drunken with strong drink; and let there be, on the morrow, as on this day, a great abundance (Isaiah 56:11-12).

And further (in Jeremiah 13:12; Hos. 4:11; 7:5; Amos 2:8; Mic. 2:11 Psalms 75:8; Deuteronomy 32:33). Falsity from evil is also signified by the “cup of the wine of anger” (Jeremiah 25:15-16; Revelation 14:8, 10; 16:19); and by the “wine press of the wine of the fury of the anger of God” (Revelation 19:15); and by the “wine of whoredom” (Revelation 17:2; 18:3).

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. Hedad is supposed to have been a loud shout of rejoicing somewhat like our “Hurrah!” and therefore untranslatable. It is so treated by Swedenborg, who systematically leaves it just as it stands in the Hebrew. In explaining its meaning he says: “The ovation or rejoicing aloud of those who tread the winepress is meant by hedad” (Apocalypse Explained922:4). “By hedad is signified the end when the people were wont to rejoice aloud and utter a cry on the completion of the vintage and gathering in of the harvest” (AE 911:10).
