以西结书 28

Studie

   

1 耶和华的又临到我说:

2 人子啊,你对推罗君王耶和华如此:因你傲,:我是;我在之位。你虽然居自比,也不过是人,并不是

3 看哪,你比但以理更有智慧,甚麽秘事都不能向你隐藏。

4 你靠自己的智慧聪明得了财宝,收入中。

5 你靠自己的大智慧和贸易增添资财,又因资财心里傲。

6 所以耶和华如此:因你居自比

7 我必使外邦人,就是列国中的强暴人临到你这里;他们必拔刀砍坏你用智慧得来的美物,亵渎你的荣光。

8 他们必使你坑;你必中,与被杀的人一样。

9 在杀你的人面前你还能我是麽?其实你在杀害你的人中,不过是人,并不是

10 你必在外邦人中,与未受割礼(或译:不洁;下同)的人一样,因为这是耶和华的。

11 耶和华的临到我说:

12 人子啊,你为推罗王作起哀歌耶和华如此:你无所不备,智慧充足,全然美丽

13 你曾在伊甸的园中,佩戴各样宝,就是红宝、红璧玺、、水苍玉、红玛瑙、碧玉蓝宝石、绿宝、红玉,和黄;又有精美的笛在你那里,都是在你受造之日预备齐全的。

14 你是那受膏遮掩约柜的基路伯;我将你安置在上;你在发光如的宝中间往来。

15 你从受造之日所行的都完全,後来在你中间又察出不义。

16 因你贸易很多,就被强暴的事充满,以致犯罪,所以我因你亵渎圣地,就从驱逐你。遮掩约柜的基路伯啊,我已将你从发光如的宝中除灭。

17 你因美丽傲,又因荣光败坏智慧,我已将你摔倒在,使你倒在君面前,好叫他们目睹眼见。

18 你因罪孽众多,贸易不公,就亵渎你那里的圣所。故此,我使从你中间发出,烧灭你,使你在所有观的人眼前变为上的炉灰。

19 各国民中,凡认识你的,都必为你惊奇。你令人惊恐,不再存留於世,直到永远

20 耶和华的临到我说:

21 人子啊,你要向西顿预言攻击他,

22 耶和华如此:西顿哪,我与你为敌,我必在你中间得荣耀。我在你中间施行审判、显为的时候,人就知道我是耶和华

23 我必使瘟疫进入西顿,使血流在他街上。被杀的必在其中仆倒,四围有刀临到他,人就知道我是耶和华

24 四围恨恶以色列家的人,必不再向他们作刺人的荆棘,伤人的蒺藜,人就知道我是耶和华

25 耶和华如此:我将分散在万民中的以色列招聚回来,向他们在列邦人眼前显为的时候,他们就在我赐仆人雅各之地,仍然居住

26 他们要在这地上安然居住。我向四围恨恶他们的众人施行审判以後,他们要盖造房屋,栽种葡萄园,安然居住,就知道我是耶和华─他们的

Apocalypse Revealed # 504

504. Where also our Lord was crucified. This symbolizes a failure to acknowledge the Lord's Divine humanity, and thus a state in which He is rejected.

It is a saying in the church that people who blaspheme the Lord, crucify Him, and that so, too, do those who, like the Jews, deny that He is the Son of God.

People who deny that the Lord's humanity is Divine are like Jews because everyone views the Lord as a person, and anyone who views His humanity as on par with the humanity of any other person is incapable then of thinking of His Divinity, no matter how often this is called the Son of God, born from eternity, coequal with the Divinity of the Father. When he is told this or hears it read, it penetrates his hearing, indeed, but not at the same time his belief, since he thinks of the Lord as being a material person like any other man, retaining the same properties of the flesh. And because he then sets the Lord's Divinity aside and pays it no attention, he is therefore in the same state as he would be if he denied it; for he denies that the Lord's humanity is the Son of God, even as the Jews did also, for which reason they crucified Him. That the Lord's humanity is nevertheless the Son of God is something plainly said in Luke 1:32, 35, Matthew 3:16-17, and elsewhere.

[2] It is apparent from this why people in the church turn directly to God the Father, and many also to the Holy Spirit, and rarely anyone directly to the Lord.

Since the Jews crucified the Lord owing to their denial that He was the Messiah, the Son of God, therefore their Jerusalem is also called Sodom (Isaiah 3:9, Jeremiah 23:14, Ezekiel 16:46, 48). And the Lord says,

On the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed. (Luke 17:29-30)

What the fire and brimstone are may be seen in no. 452, 494.

Head

The head is the part of us that is highest, which means in a representative sense that it is what is closest to the Lord. Because of this the head represents what is inmost in us, the thing at the center of our being. In most cases this means intelligence and wisdom, since most of us are in a state of life in which we are led by our thoughts and reason. In the case of the Lord, however, it often represents His perfect love. And in many cases the head is used to represent the whole person.
