以西結書 43

Studie

   

1 以後,他帶我到一座,就是朝東的

2 以色列的榮光從東而。他的聲音如同多水的聲音;就因他的榮耀發光。

3 其狀如從前他滅城的時候我所見的異象,那異象如我在迦巴魯邊所見的異象,我就俯伏在地。

4 耶和華的榮光從朝東的照入殿中。

5 靈將我舉起入內院,不料,耶和華的榮光充滿了殿。

6 見有一位從殿中對我說話。有一站在我旁邊。

7 他對我:人子啊,這是我寶座之地,是我掌所踏之地。我要在這裡住,在以色列人中直到永遠以色列家和他們的君必不再玷污我的名,就是行邪淫、在錫安的處葬埋他們君的屍首,

8 使他們的門檻挨近我的門檻,他們的門框挨近我的門框;他們與我中間僅隔一,並且行可憎的事,玷污了我的名,所以我發怒滅絕他們。

9 現在他們當從我面前遠除邪淫和他們君的屍首,我就住在他們中間直到永遠

10 人子啊,你要將這殿指示以色列家,使他們因自己的罪孽慚愧,也要他們量殿的尺寸。

11 他們若因自己所行的一切事慚愧,你就將殿的規模、樣式、出入之處,和一切形狀、典章、禮儀、則指示他們,在他們眼前上,使他們遵照殿的一切規模典章去做。

12 殿的法則乃是如此:殿在頂上,四圍的全界要稱為至。這就是殿的法則。

13 以下量祭壇,是以肘為度(這肘是肘零掌)。底座肘,邊寬肘,四圍起邊掌,這是的座。

14 從底座到下層磴臺,肘,邊寬肘。從小磴臺到磴臺,肘,邊寬肘。

15 壇上的供臺,肘。供臺的拐角上都有角。

16 供臺長十二肘,寬十二肘,面見方。

17 磴臺長十四肘,寬十四肘,面見方。圍起邊高半肘,底座圍的邊寬一肘。臺階朝東。

18 他對我:人子啊,耶和華如此:建造祭壇,為要在其上獻燔祭灑血,造成的時候典章如下:

19 耶和華,你要將一隻公牛犢作為贖祭,祭司利未人撒督的後裔,就是那親近我、事奉我的。

20 你要取些公牛的血,抹在壇的角和磴臺的拐角,並圍所起的邊上。你這樣潔淨壇,壇就潔淨了。

21 你又要將那作贖祭的公牛犢燒在殿外、聖地之外預定之處。

22 次日,要將無殘疾的公山羊獻為贖祭;要潔淨,像用公牛犢潔淨的一樣。

23 潔淨了壇,就要將一隻無殘疾的公牛犢和羊群中一隻無殘疾的公綿

24 奉到耶和華前。祭司要撒在其上,獻與耶和華為燔祭。

25 日內,每日要預備一隻公山羊為贖祭,也要預備一隻公牛犢和羊群中的一隻公綿,都要沒有殘疾的。

26 日祭司潔淨就潔淨了;要這樣把分別為聖。

27 滿了七日,自八日以後,祭司要在上獻你們的燔祭和平安祭;我必悅納你們。這是耶和華的。

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).

Ezekiel 41

Studie

   

1 He brought me to the temple, and measured the posts, six cubits broad on the one side, and six cubits broad on the other side, which was the breadth of the tent.

2 The breadth of the entrance was ten cubits; and the sides of the entrance were five cubits on the one side, and five cubits on the other side: and he measured its length, forty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits.

3 Then went he inward, and measured each post of the entrance, two cubits; and the entrance, six cubits; and the breadth of the entrance, seven cubits.

4 He measured its length, twenty cubits, and the breadth, twenty cubits, before the temple: and he said to me, This is the most holy place.

5 Then he measured the wall of the house, six cubits; and the breadth of every side room, four cubits, all around the house on every side.

6 The side rooms were in three stories, one over another, and thirty in order; and they entered into the wall which belonged to the house for the side rooms all around, that they might have hold [therein], and not have hold in the wall of the house.

7 The side rooms were broader as they encompassed [the house] higher and higher; for the encompassing of the house went higher and higher around the house: therefore the breadth of the house [continued] upward; and so one went up [from] the lowest [room] to the highest by the middle [room].

8 I saw also that the house had a raised base all around: the foundations of the side rooms were a full reed of six great cubits.

9 The thickness of the wall, which was for the side rooms, on the outside, was five cubits: and that which was left was the place of the side rooms that belonged to the house.

10 Between the rooms was a breadth of twenty cubits around the house on every side.

11 The doors of the side rooms were toward [the place] that was left, one door toward the north, and another door toward the south: and the breadth of the place that was left was five cubits all around.

12 The building that was before the separate place at the side toward the west was seventy cubits broad; and the wall of the building was five cubits thick all around, and its length ninety cubits.

13 So he measured the house, one hundred cubits long; and the separate place, and the building, with its walls, one hundred cubits long;

14 also the breadth of the face of the house, and of the separate place toward the east, one hundred cubits.

15 He measured the length of the building before the separate place which was at its back, and its galleries on the one side and on the other side, one hundred cubits; and the inner temple, and the porches of the court;

16 the thresholds, and the closed windows, and the galleries around on their three stories, over against the threshold, with wood ceilings all around, and [from] the ground up to the windows, (now the windows were covered),

17 to [the space] above the door, even to the inner house, and outside, and by all the wall all around inside and outside, by measure.

18 It was made with cherubim and palm trees; and a palm tree was between cherub and cherub, and every cherub had two faces;

19 so that there was the face of a man toward the palm tree on the one side, and the face of a young lion toward the palm tree on the other side. [thus was it] made through all the house all around:

20 from the ground to above the door were cherubim and palm trees made: thus was the wall of the temple.

21 As for the temple, the door posts were squared; and as for the face of the sanctuary, the appearance [of it] was as the appearance [of the temple].

22 The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits; and its corners, and its length, and its walls, were of wood: and he said to me, This is the table that is before Yahweh.

23 The temple and the sanctuary had two doors.

24 The doors had two leaves [apiece], two turning leaves: two [leaves] for the one door, and two leaves for the other.

25 There were made on them, on the doors of the temple, cherubim and palm trees, like as were made on the walls; and there was a threshold of wood on the face of the porch outside.

26 There were closed windows and palm trees on the one side and on the other side, on the sides of the porch: thus were the side rooms of the house, and the thresholds.
