耶利米书 44

Studie

   

1 有临到耶利米,论及一切埃及的犹大人,就是在密夺、答比匿、挪弗、巴忒罗境内的犹大人,说:

2 万军之耶和华以色列的如此:我所降与耶路撒冷犹大各城的一切灾祸你们都见了。那些城邑今日荒凉,无人居住

3 这是因居民所行的恶,去烧香事奉别,就是他们和你们,并你们列祖所不认识的,惹我发怒。

4 我从起来差遣我的仆人先知去说,你们切不要行我所厌恶这可憎之事。

5 他们却不从,不侧耳而,不离恶事,仍向别烧香。

6 因此,我的怒气和忿怒都倒出来,在犹大城邑中和耶路撒冷的街上,如火着起,以致都荒废凄凉,正如今日一样。

7 现在耶和华─万军之以色列的如此:你们为何作这恶自害己命,使你们的男人妇女、婴孩,和吃奶的都从犹大中剪除、不留一呢?

8 就是因你们所做的,在所去寄居的埃及向别烧香惹我发怒,使你们被剪除,在天下万国中令人咒诅羞辱。

9 你们列祖的恶行,犹大和他们后妃的恶行,你们自己和你们妻子的恶行,就是在犹大耶路撒冷街上所行的,你们都忘了麽?

10 到如今还没有懊悔,没有惧,没有遵行我在你们和你们列祖面前所设立的法度律例。

11 所以万军之耶和华以色列的如此:我必向你们变脸降灾,以致剪除犹大众人。

12 那定意进入埃及、在那里寄居的,就是所剩下的犹大人,我必使他们尽都灭绝,必在埃及仆倒,必因刀饥荒灭绝;从最小的到至的都必遭刀饥荒而,以致令人辱骂、惊骇、咒诅、羞辱。

13 我怎样用刀、饥荒、瘟疫刑罚耶路撒冷,也必照样刑罚那些埃及的犹大人;

14 甚至那进入埃及寄居的,就是所剩下的犹大人,都不得逃脱,也不得存留归回犹大。他们心中甚想归回居住;除了逃脱的以外,一个都不能归回。

15 那些埃及巴忒罗知道自己妻子向别烧香的,与旁边站立的众妇女,聚集成群,回答耶利米

16 论到你奉耶和华的名向我们我们必不从。

17 我们定要成就我们中所出的一切,向后烧香、浇奠祭,按着我们我们列祖、君、首领在犹大的城邑中和耶路撒冷的街上素常所行的一样;因为那时我们吃饱饭、享福乐,并不见灾祸。

18 自从我们停止向后烧香、浇奠祭,我们倒缺乏一切,又因刀饥荒灭绝。

19 妇女:我们向后烧香、浇奠祭,做后像的饼供奉他,向他浇奠祭,是外乎我们的丈夫麽?

20 耶利米对一切那样回答他的男人妇女

21 你们与你们列祖、君、首领,并国内的百姓,在犹大城邑中和耶路撒冷上所烧的香,耶和华岂不记念,中岂不思想麽?

22 耶和华因你们所作的恶、所行可憎的事,不能再容忍,所以你们的荒凉,令人惊骇咒诅,无人居住,正如今日一样。

23 你们烧香,得罪耶和华,没有听从他的话,没有遵行他的律法、条例、法度,所以你们遭遇这灾祸,正如今日一样。

24 耶利米又对众民和众妇女:你们在埃及的一切犹大人当耶和华的

25 万军之耶和华以色列的如此:你们和你们的妻都里做,我们定要偿还所许的愿,向后烧香、浇奠祭。现在你们只管坚定所许的愿而偿还罢!

26 所以你们埃及的一切犹大耶和华的耶和华:我指着我的名起誓,在埃及,我的名不再被犹大一个称呼:我指着─永生的耶和华起誓。

27 我向他们留意降祸不降福;在埃及的一切犹大必因刀、饥荒所灭,直到灭尽。

28 脱离刀、从埃及归回犹大的人数很少;那进入埃及要在那里寄居的,就是所剩下的犹大人,必知道是谁的立得住,是我的呢?是他们的呢?

29 耶和华:我在这地方刑罚你们,必有预兆,使你们知道我降祸与你们的必要立得住。

30 耶和华如此:我必将埃及王法老合弗拉交在他仇敌和寻索其命的人中,像我将犹大王西底家交在他仇敌和寻索其命的巴比伦王尼布甲尼撒中一样。

10607. 'And no one shall come up with you' means that the Israelite nation is incapable of standing in Divine Truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'not coming up', in this instance of not coming up with Moses onto Mount Sinai, as not going into heaven from which Divine Truth is revealed, thus as being incapable of standing in Divine Truth. For 'Mount Sinai' means heaven, from which the revelation of Divine Truth comes, see 8805, 8931, 9420, 10605; and 'Moses' represents the outward form taken by the Church, worship, and the Word, which is where Divine Truth is received. The fact that the Israelite nation is meant is self-evident, for the prohibitions 'no one shall come up with you' and 'no one shall be seen on all the mountain' refer to members of that nation.

[2] The fact that 'Moses' at this point represents the outward form taken by the Word, the Church, and worship, which is where Divine Truth is received, is clear from all the details in the present chapter, such as these:

1. The requirement that Moses should go up onto Mount Sinai and stand there at the top of it, and that the people should be moved back from it.

2. Jehovah's talking to Moses, in the verses that follow, as if He were doing so only to him and not to the people 1 - All the people in whose midst you are will see that this is a marvel which I am doing with you, verse 10. Observe that which I command you this day. Behold, I am driving out from your face, verse 11. Take care, lest by chance you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land onto which you come, verse 12. You shall not bow down to any other god, verse 14. Lest by chance you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, and they call you, and you eat of their sacrifice, verse 15. You are not to take their daughters for your sons, verse 16. And so on in verses after these.

3. The gleaming of the skin on Moses' face, described later on in this chapter, and the people's fear to approach him, so that he put a veil over his face whenever he talked to the people.

[3] From all these details it is evident that in the present chapter Moses represents the outward form taken by the Word, the Church, and worship, which is where Divine Truth is received and so is that through which the Divine Truth within shines out. The fact that Moses represents that outward form and not what it holds within it is likewise evident from all the details in the present chapter, such as the reference to Jehovah's descending in the cloud and His standing with him (for 'the cloud means the outward form which the Word takes) and then His commanding him what the external observances of the Church and worship were to be, but not what the internal ones were. Something similarly external or outward was represented by Moses in the previous chapter, as is evident in verses 7-11 and verses 17-23, see 10563, 10571. But an external unreceptive of anything internal existed among the Israelite nation.
