属天的奥秘 # 6658
6658. “离开这地而上去” 表教会将由此得以建立. 这从 “上去” 和 “地” 的含义清楚可知: “上去” 是指被提升, 即被提升至教会更内在的事物 (参看3084, 4539, 4969, 5406, 5817, 6007节); “地”, 此处是指歌珊地, 是指教会, 如前所述 (6649节). “离开这地上去, 并进入迦南地” 所表示的被提升至教会更内在的事物, 是指教会将得以建立. 诚然, 当一个人出于情感行善时, 教会就已经在他里面建立了; 然而, 在他与邪恶和虚假争战, 从而经历试探之前, 它仍未完全建立起来. 只有经历了这一切之后, 他才成为一个真正的教会, 在这时被引入天堂; 把以色列人带到迦南地就代表这种引入.
Isaiah 33:20-22
20
Look at Zion, the city of our appointed festivals. Your eyes will see Jerusalem, a quiet habitation, a tent that won't be removed. Its stakes will never be plucked up, nor will any of its cords be broken.
21
But there Yahweh will be with us in majesty, a place of broad rivers and streams, in which no galley with oars will go, neither will any gallant ship pass by there.
22
For Yahweh is our judge. Yahweh is our lawgiver. Yahweh is our king. He will save us.
