创世记 3

Studie

   

1 耶和华所造的,惟有比田野一切的活物更狡猾。女人岂是真不许你们园中所有上的果子麽?

2 女人:园中上的果子,我们可以

3 惟有园当中那棵上的果子,:你们不可,也不可摸,免得你们

4 女人:你们不一定

5 因为知道,你们的日子眼睛就明亮了,你们便如知道善恶。

6 於是女人见那棵的果子作食物,也悦人的眼目,且是可喜爱的,能使人有智慧,就摘下果子来吃了,又丈夫,他丈夫吃了

7 他们人的眼睛就明亮了,才知道自己是赤身露体,便拿无花果树子为自己编作裙子。

8 起了凉耶和华在园中行走。那人和他妻子声音,就藏在园里的树木中,躲避耶和华的面。

9 耶和华呼唤那人,对他:你在那里?

10 :我在园中见你的声音,我就害怕;因为我赤身露体,我便藏了。

11 耶和华:谁告诉你赤身露体呢?莫非你吃了我吩咐你不可的那上的果子吗?

12 那人:你所赐我与我同居的女人,他把那上的果子我,我就吃了

13 耶和华女人:你作的是甚麽事呢?女人:那引诱我,我就吃了

14 耶和华:你既作了这事,就必受咒诅,比一切的牲畜野兽更甚。你必用肚子行走,终身土。

15 我又要叫你和女人彼此为仇;你的後裔和女人的後裔也彼此为仇。女人的後裔要伤你的;你要伤他的脚跟

16 又对女人:我必多多加增你怀胎的苦楚;你生产儿女必多受苦楚。你必恋慕你丈夫;你丈夫必管辖你。

17 又对亚当:你既听从妻子的话,吃了我所吩咐你不可的那上的果子,地必为你的缘故受咒诅;你必终身劳苦才能从地里得的。

18 地必给你长出荆棘和蒺藜来;你也要田间的菜蔬。

19 你必汗流满面才得糊口,直到你归了土,因为你是从土而出的。你本是尘土,仍要归於尘土

20 亚当给他妻子起名夏娃,因为他是众生之母。

21 耶和华为亚当和他妻子子作衣服给他们穿。

22 耶和华:那人已经与我们相似,能知道善恶;现在恐怕他伸又摘生命的果子,就永远活着。

23 耶和华便打发他出伊甸园去,耕种他所自出之土。

24 於是把他赶出去了;又在伊甸园的东边安设基路伯和四面动发火焰的,要把守生命道路

200. The reason the tree of knowledge is now said to be in the middle of the garden, whereas previously in 2:9 the tree of life 1 is said to be in the middle of the garden, and not the tree of knowledge, is that 'the middle of the garden' means that which is inmost. And the inmost of the celestial man, or Most Ancient Church, was the tree of life, 1 which was love and faith deriving from it. But the middle of the garden, or that which was the inmost of this next generation, that is, of the man who may be called celestial-spiritual, was faith. No further description is possible, for the character of the people who lived in those most ancient times is totally unknown at the present day. Their disposition was entirely different from that which is at all possible with anyone today. To convey some intelligible idea of that disposition, let the point be considered that it was from good that they came to know truth, that is, from love they came to know anything of faith. But when that generation died out another took its place whose disposition was entirely different. That is to say, the new generation did not from good come to know truth, or from love come to know the things of faith, but instead had from truth a knowledge of good, that is, had from the things constituting the cognitions of faith a knowledge of those of love; and with the majority it was scarcely anything more than knowledge. Such was the change which took place after the Flood to prevent the destruction of the world.
