以西结书 37

Studie

   

1 耶和华的灵(原文是)降在我身上。耶和华藉他的灵带我出去,将我放在平原中;这平原遍满骸

2 他使我从骸骨的四围经过,谁知在平原的骸骨甚多,而且极其枯乾。

3 他对我:人子啊,这些骸能复活麽?我耶和华啊,你是知道的。

4 他又对我:你向这些骸发预言:枯乾的骸啊,要耶和华的

5 耶和华对这些骸如此:我必使气息进入你们里面,你们就要活了。

6 我必你们加上,使你们长,又将遮蔽你们,使气息进入你们里面,你们就要活了;你们便知道我是耶和华

7 於是,我遵命说预言。正说预言的时候,不料,有响声,有地震;互相联络。

8 我观,见骸骨上有,也长了,又有遮蔽其上,只是还没有气息。

9 对我:人子啊,你要发预言,向发预言,耶和华如此:气息啊,要从方(原文是)而,吹在这些被杀的人身上,使他们活了。

10 於是我遵命说预言,气息就进入骸骨,骸骨便活了,并且站起,成为极军队

11 主对我:人子啊,这些骸就是以色列全家。他们:我们的骨头枯乾了,我们的指望失去了,我们灭绝净尽了。

12 所以你要发预言对他们耶和华如此:我的民哪,我必开你们的坟墓,使你们从坟墓中出,领你们进入以色列地。

13 我的民哪,我开你们的坟墓,使你们从坟墓中出来,你们就知道我是耶和华

14 我必将我的灵放在你们里面,你们就要活了。我将你们安置在本地,你们就知道我─耶和华如此,也如此成就了。这是耶和华的。

15 耶和华的又临到我说:

16 人子啊,你要取杖,在其上犹大和他的同伴以色列人;又取杖,在其上为约瑟,就是为以法莲,又为他的同伴以色列全家。

17 你要使这两根杖接连为,在你中成为根。

18 你本国的子民问你:这是甚麽意思?你不指示我们麽?

19 你就对他们耶和华如此:我要将约瑟和他同伴以色列支派的杖,就是那在以法莲中的,与犹大的杖同接连为,在我中成为根。

20 你所的那两根杖要在他们眼前拿在中,

21 要对他们耶和华如此:我要将以色列人从他们所到的各国收取,又从四围聚集他们,引导他们归回本地。

22 我要使他们在那,在以色列上成为国,有王作他们众民的王。他们不再为国,决不再分为国;

23 也不再因偶像和可憎的物,并一切的罪过玷污自己。我却要他们出离一切的处,就是他们犯罪的地方;我要洁净他们,如此,他们要作我的子民,我要作他们的

24 我的仆人大卫必作他们的王;众民必归个牧人。他们必顺从我的典章,谨守遵行我的律例。

25 他们必在我赐仆人雅各上,就是你们列祖所。他们和他们的子孙,并子孙的子孙,都永远在那里。我的仆人大卫必作他们的王,直到永远

26 并且我要与他们立平安的约,作为永约。我也要将他们安置在本地,使他们的人数增多,又在他们中间设立我的圣所,直到永远

27 我的居所必在他们中间;我要作他们的,他们要作我的子民。

28 我的所在以色列人中间直到永远外邦人就必知道我是叫以色列成为耶和华

53. 25. A day of cloud and thick darkness (Ezekiel 34:12).

(I will make Mount Seir and the cities thereof into a waste and devastation, into a waste of eternity (Ezekiel 35:3-4, 7, 9, 12, 14-15).

Then the cities shall be inhabited, and the wastes shall be built (Ezekiel 36:10).

When I shall sanctify Myself among you, then I will give you a new heart, and I will give a new spirit in the midst of you and I will take away the heart of stone, and will give you a heart of flesh, and I will give a new spirit in your midst, and ye shall be My people, and I will be your God (Ezekiel 36:23, 26-28).

In the day that I have cleansed you from all your iniquities, I will make you to dwell in cities, and the waste places shall be built; they shall say, This land that was devastated is become as the garden of Eden, and the desolate and devastated cities are fortified and inhabited (Ezekiel 36:33-38).

Behold I will open your graves and cause you to come up out of your graves, O my people, and I will lead you upon the land of Israel, and I will put my spirit in you that ye may live (Ezekiel 37:12-14). Concerning the dry bones: by the inflowing of the breath among them, and their living again, regeneration is described.

After many days thou shalt be visited, and in the latter days they shall come upon the land that was made a waste (Ezekiel 38:8, 16).

They shall bury Gog in the day in which I shall be glorified (Ezekiel 39:11-12, 13). Gog is one who is in external worship, but not in internal.

Of the great sacrifices upon the mountains of Israel, and that thus He will set His glory among the nations that they may know that Jehovah is their God from that day, and hence-forward (Ezekiel 39:17-22).

Of the New Church which is described by many things in Ezekiel 40-48: of the city which is the New Jerusalem, and of its gates (40): of the temple, etc. (41): of the court and of the chambers there (42): of the eastern gate where the glory of the God of Israel is seen, and of His worship (43): next of His worship and of ministration (44): of the statutes for the prince (45, 46): of waters from the house (47) of the allotment of the land according to tribes (47, 48). That the name of the city is, Jehovah there (48:35).
