創世記 14

Studie

   

1 當暗拉非作示拿王,亞略作以拉撒王,基大老瑪作以攔王,提達作戈印王的時候,

2 他們都攻打所多瑪比拉、蛾摩拉比沙、押瑪示納、洗扁善以別,和比拉;比拉就是瑣珥。

3 這五王都在西訂會合;西訂就是

4 他們已經事奉基大老瑪十二年,到十三年就背叛了。

5 十四年,基大老瑪和同盟的在亞特律加寧,殺敗了利乏音人,在哈麥殺敗了蘇西人,在沙微基列亭殺敗了以米人,

6 在何利人的西珥殺敗了何利人,一直殺到靠近曠野的伊勒巴蘭。

7 他們回到安密巴,就是加低斯,殺敗了亞瑪力全地的人,以及在哈洗遜他瑪的亞摩利人。

8 於是所多瑪王、蛾摩拉王、押瑪王、洗扁王,和比拉王(比拉就是瑣珥)都出來,在西訂擺陣,與他們交戰,

9 就是與以攔基大老瑪、戈印提達、示拿暗拉非、以拉撒亞略交戰;乃是與五交戰。

10 西訂有許多石漆坑。所多瑪和蛾摩拉逃跑,有掉在坑裡的,其餘的人都往逃跑

11 四王就把所多瑪和蛾摩拉所有的財物,並一切的糧食都擄掠去了;

12 又把亞伯蘭的姪兒羅得和羅得的財物擄掠去了。當時羅得正所多瑪

13 有一個逃出的人告訴希伯來人亞伯蘭亞伯蘭正住在亞摩利人幔利的橡樹那裡。幔利和以實各並亞乃都是弟兄,曾與亞伯蘭聯盟。

14 亞伯蘭見他姪兒(原文作弟兄)被擄去,就率領他家裡生養的精練壯丁一十八人,直追到但,

15 便在夜間,自己同僕人分隊殺敗敵人,又追到大馬色左邊的何把,

16 將被擄掠的一切財物奪回來,連他姪兒羅得和他的財物,以及婦女、人民也都奪回來

17 亞伯蘭殺敗基大老瑪和與他同盟的回來的時候,所多瑪出來,在沙微迎接他;沙微就是

18 又有撒冷王麥基洗德帶著餅和酒出來迎接;他是至神的祭司。

19 他為亞伯蘭祝福:願的主、至的神賜福與亞伯蘭

20 的神把敵人交在你裡,是應當稱頌的!亞伯蘭就把所得的拿出十分之一來,麥基洗德。

21 所多瑪王對亞伯蘭:你把人口我,財物你自己拿去罷!

22 亞伯蘭所多瑪:我已經向─至的神耶和華起誓:

23 凡是你的東西,就是一根線、一根鞋帶,我都不拿,免得你:我使亞伯蘭富足!

24 只有僕人所的,並與我同行的亞乃、以實各、幔利所應得的分,可以任憑他們拿去。

1685. With Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar. That this signifies the truths and goods in the external man, is evident from the signification of the same in verse 1 of this chapter.

That “Chedorlaomer king of Elam” signifies truths, and “Tidal king of Goiim” goods, and the others the things derived from these, is evident from the fact that the same kings are here enumerated in a different order from that of verse 1 above. There “Chedorlaomer king of Elam” stands in the third place, but here in the first; and there “Tidal king of Goiim” is in the fourth place, but here in the second. It is truth that is first in combat, for combat is from truth; for from truth it is known what falsity is and what evil is; on which account such combats never arise until the man has been imbued with knowledges [scientiae et cognitiones] of truth and good. Hence by “Chedorlaomer,” who is here named in the first place, is signified the truth that was in the Lord; which is also evident from the signification of “Elam,” as being faith from charity, which is the same thing as truth (as has been shown before, Genesis 10:22). It follows from this that “Tidal king of Goiim” or “of nations” signifies good; and that the other kings signify the truths and goods that are derived from these.
