創世記 22

Studie

   

1 這些事以要試驗亞伯拉罕,就呼叫他亞伯拉罕!他:我在這裡。

2 :你帶著你的兒子,就是你獨生的兒子,你所以撒,往摩利亞去,在我所要指示你的上,把他獻為燔祭。

3 亞伯拉罕起來,備上,帶著兩個僕人和他兒子以撒,也劈好了燔祭的柴,就起身往所指示他的地方去了。

4 到了第三日,亞伯拉罕舉目遠遠的見那地方

5 亞伯拉罕對他的僕人:你們和在此等候,我與童子往那裡去拜一拜,就回到你們這裡來。

6 亞伯拉罕把燔祭的柴放在他兒子以撒身上,自己裡拿著與刀;於是人同行。

7 以撒對他父親亞伯拉罕父親哪!亞伯拉罕:我兒,我在這裡。以撒:請看,與柴都有了,但燔祭的羊羔在那裡呢?

8 亞伯拉罕:我兒,必自己預備作燔祭的羊羔。於是人同行。

9 他們到了所指示的地方亞伯拉罕在那裡築,把柴擺好,捆綁他的兒子以撒,放在的柴上。

10 亞伯拉罕就伸拿刀,要殺他的兒子

11 耶和華的使者從呼叫亞伯拉罕亞伯拉罕!他:我在這裡。

12 天使:你不可在這童子身上下。一點不可害他!現在我知道你是敬畏的了;因為你沒有將你的兒子,就是你獨生的兒子,留下不給我。

13 亞伯拉罕舉目觀,不料,有一隻公,兩角扣在稠密的小樹中,亞伯拉罕就取了那隻公來,獻為燔祭,代替他的兒子

14 亞伯拉罕給那地方起名耶和華以勒(意思就是耶和華必預備的意思),直到今日人還:在耶和華的上必有預備。

15 耶和華的使者第二次從呼叫亞伯拉罕說:

16 耶和華:你既行了這事,不留下你的兒子,就是你獨生的兒子,我便指著自己起誓

17 論福,我必賜大福給你;論子孫,我必叫你的子孫多起來,如同上的邊的沙。你子孫必得著仇敵的城

18 並且上萬國都必因你的後裔得福,因為你聽從了我的話。

19 於是亞伯拉罕回到他僕人那裡,他們一同起身往別是巴去,亞伯拉罕在別是巴。

20 這事以,有人告訴亞伯拉罕說:密迦給你兄弟拿鶴生了幾個兒子

21 長子是烏斯,他的兄弟是布斯和亞蘭的父親基母利,

22 並基薛、哈瑣、必達、益拉、彼土利(彼土利生利百加)。

23 個人都是密迦給亞伯拉罕的兄弟拿鶴生的。

24 拿鶴的妾名叫流瑪,生了提八、迦含、他轄,和瑪迦。

2819. As regards the Lord's temptations in general, some were more external, others more internal. The more internal they were, the more severe they were. His inmost temptations are described in Matthew 26:37-39, 42, 44; 27:46; Mark 14:33-36; 15:34; Luke 22:42-44. But see what has been stated already regarding the Lord's temptations, namely the following:

The Lord first of all fought from goods and truths which were appearances of goods and truths, 1661.

Out of Divine love towards the whole human race He fought against the evils of self-love and of love of the world, 1690, 1691 (end), 1789, 1812, 1813, 1820.

He alone has fought out of Divine love, 1812, 1813.

All the hells fought against the Lord's love, which was the salvation of the whole human race, 1820.

The Lord suffered the severest temptations of all, 1663, 1668, 1787.

By means of temptations and victories the Lord by His own power became righteousness, 1813, 2025.

The Lord effected the union of the Human Essence to the Divine Essence by means of temptations and victories, 1737, 1813, 1921, 2025, 2026.

See also what has been stated already about temptations in general, in 59, 63, 227, 847.

Temptation is a power-struggle over whether good or evil, truth or falsity, is to prevail, 1923.

Temptations involve feelings of anger, and many other emotions, 1917.

Temptations are celestial, spiritual, or natural, 847.

In temptations evil genii and spirits attack the things that belong to a person's love, and so the things that constitute his life, 847, 1820.

What temptations accomplish, 1692, 1717, 1740.

The purpose of temptation therefore is that bodily things may be subdued, 857.

Evils and falsities with a person who is being regenerated are subdued by means of temptations, not done away with, 868.

Truth goes into battle first, 1685.

A person fights from the goods and truths which he has acquired by means of cognitions even when they are not in themselves goods and truths, 1661.

Spirits and evil genii activate the falsities and evils within man, and this leads to temptations, 741, 751, 761.

In temptations a person assumes that the Lord is absent, when in fact He is at such times more present, 840.

A person cannot by any means endure by himself the conflicts brought about by temptations, for they are conflicts against every hell, 1692 (end).

The Lord alone fights in man, 1661, 1692.

By means of temptations evil genii and spirits are deprived of their power to do evil and to inspire falsity within man, 1695, 1717.

Temptations take place with those who have conscience, and are more intense with those who have perception, 1668.

Temptations take place rarely at the present day; instead occasions of anxiety occur, which are something different and have a different origin, 762.

Persons who are dead spiritually are not able to suffer the conflicts brought about by temptations, 270.

All temptations bring with them despair over the end in view, 1787, 1820.

After temptations fluctuation occurs, 848, 857.

By means of temptations the good learn that [left to themselves] they are nothing but evil, and that all things are subject to mercy, 2334.

By means of temptations goods become joined more closely to truths, 272.

People are not saved by virtue of enduring temptations if they go under, or if they imagine that they have acquired merit through them, 273.

Every temptation involves freedom, greater freedom than outside of temptations, 1937.

Genesis 22

Studie

   

1 It happened after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" He said, "Here I am."

2 He said, "Now take your son, your only son, whom you love, even Isaac, and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there for a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of."

3 Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.

4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.

5 Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go yonder. We will worship, and come back to you."

6 Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. He took in his hand the fire and the knife. They both went together.

7 Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, "My father?" He said, "Here I am, my son." He said, "Here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"

8 Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they both went together.

9 They came to the place which God had told him of. Abraham built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, on the wood.

10 Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.

11 The angel of Yahweh called to him out of the sky, and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" He said, "Here I am."

12 He said, "Don't lay your hand on the boy, neither do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me."

13 Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and saw that behind him was a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering instead of his son.

14 Abraham called the name of that place Yahweh Will Provide. As it is said to this day, "On Yahweh's mountain, it will be provided."

15 The angel of Yahweh called to Abraham a second time out of the sky,

16 and said, "I have sworn by myself, says Yahweh, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son,

17 that I will bless you greatly, and I will multiply your seed greatly like the stars of the heavens, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your seed will possess the gate of his enemies.

18 In your seed will all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."

19 So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.

20 It happened after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, "Behold, Milcah, she also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

21 Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,

22 Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel."

23 Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

24 His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
