Ezekijel 41

Studie

   

1 Zatim me povede u Hekal. Izmjeri mu polustupove: bijahu široki šest lakata s jedne i šest lakata s druge strane.

2 Vrata bijahu široka deset lakata: sa svake strane po jedno krilo od pet lakata. A zatim izmjeri Hekal: bijaše dugačak četrdeset, a širok dvadeset lakata.

3 Onda uđe i izmjeri polustupove vrata: dva lakta; zatim vrata: šest lakata; pa širinu vrata: sedam lakata.

4 Izmjeri zatim unutrašnji prostor: dužina dvadeset lakata, širina ispred Hekala dvadeset lakata. I reče mi: "To je Svetinja nad svetinjama."

5 Potom izmjeri zid Doma: šest lakata. Pobočne prostorije bijahu široke četiri lakta, sve oko Doma.

6 Pobočne prostorije bijahu jedna nad drugom, bijaše ih trideset na tri bÓoja. U hramskom zidu bijahu, sve uokolo, zasjeci da prihvate pobočne prostorije. Tako one ne bijahu ugrađene u hramski zid.

7 Širina se prostorija povećavala od boja do boja, jer su one sve uokolo, na bojeve, okruživale Dom, a Dom je, kako se uzlazilo, ostavljao sve širi prostor. S najdonjeg se boja uzlazilo na najgornji kroza srednji.

8 Onda vidjeh sve oko Doma neku uzvisinu. Osnove pobočnih prostorija: cijela trska, šest lakata.

9 Debljina vanjskoga zida pobočnih klijeti: pet lakata. Prolaz između pobočnih prostorija Doma

10 i klijeti bijaše, sve uokolo Doma, dvadeset lakata širok.

11 Iz pobočne prostorije izlažahu na prolaz jedna vrata prema sjeveru i jedna prema jugu. Prolaz bijaše širok pet lakata svud uokolo.

12 Zdanje što zatvaraše ograđeni prostor sa zapada bijaše široko sedamdeset lakata, a zid te građevine posvud uokolo bijaše debeo pet lakata i dugačak devedeset lakata.

13 On izmjeri Dom: bijaše dugačak stotinu lakata. Ograđeni prostor, zdanje mu i zidovi, stotinu lakata dužine.

14 Širina pročelja Doma s ograđenim prostorom prema istoku: sto lakata.

15 On izmjeri dužinu zdanja duž ograđenog prostora što bijaše straga i hodnike s jedne i s druge strane: stotinu lakata. Unutrašnjost Hekala, trijemovi predvorja,

16 pragovi, prozori s rešetkama i hodnici na sve tri strane uokolo, nasuprot pragovima, bijahu sve uokolo drvetom obloženi od zemlje do prozora. prozori su bili zastrti.

17 Od ulaza sve do unutrašnjosti Doma, a tako i izvana te po svem zidu uokolo, iznutra i izvana,

18 bijahu likovi kerubina i palma. Po jedna palma između dva kerubina, a svaki kerubin imaše dva lica:

19 prema palmi s jedne strane lice čovječje, a prema palmi s druge strane lice lavlje. Tako bijaše po svemu Domu sve uokolo:

20 od zemlje do ponad vrata bijahu izdjeljani kerubini i palme, a tako i po zidu Hekala.

21 Dovratnici Hekala bijahu četverouglasti.

22 Pred Svetištem nešto kao žrtvenik od drveta: tri lakta visok, dva lakta dugačak i dva lakta širok. Uglovi mu, podnožje i stranice bijahu od drveta. I čovjek mi reče: "Evo stola koji je pred licem Jahvinim!"

23 I Hekal i Svetište imahu po dvoja vrata,

24 a svaka vrata po dva krila što se obrtahu: dva krila u jednih i dva krila u drugih vrata.

25 A na vratima Hekala bijahu izdjeljani kerubini i palme, kao što bijahu izdjeljani i po zidovima. Izvana pred trijemom bijaše drvena nadstrešnica.

26 Prozori s rešetkama i palme bijahu s jedne i s druge strane na trijemu, u pobočnim prostorijama Doma i na nadstrešnici.

10622. 'And He does not at all absolve' means allowing them to exist until they reach their closing stage. This is clear from the meaning of 'absolving' as forgiving sin; but when the words does or will not absolve are added 1 , allowing the thing to exist is meant. The reason why until their closing stage is meant is that the Lord allows evil to exist until it has reached its closing stage or culmination. Various places throughout the Word use the expression 'the close of the age'; and in these places evil may be spoken of as having reached or not having reached its closing stage, at which stage visitation takes place. Since this is the meaning of the words 'He does (or will) not at all absolve' a brief statement must be made showing what to understand by this. In general the closing stage or the close means the end of the Church. And it reaches its end when neither charity nor faith exist any longer, because the Church has turned itself completely away from the Lord and no good at all reigns there any longer, only evil. This is called its close, at which stage visitation takes place. When it takes place all those ruled by evil are cast away, and all those governed by good are accepted. This visitation takes place in the next life, where all who have belonged to the Church from its beginning through to its end dwell together. The casting away of the evil into hell when it takes place and the saving of the good is what is called the last judgement.

[2] In particular the closing stage takes place with every individual person in a very similar manner. When anybody enters the next life, which happens immediately after death, he is allowed to exist among those who are good; even someone bad is allowed to do so. But after a while the person's interiors are opened. If these are evil he is borne away more and more into his own evil, until his will is taken over by his evil, and his understanding by the falsity which goes with that evil. Once this has happened that evil is said to have reached the closing stage in him, and he is cast away into hell. These are the things that should be understood by 'He will not at all absolve'. The like is meant by what Jehovah said to Moses,

Now, go! lead the people to what I have spoken of to you. Behold, My angel will go before you; and on the day of My visitation I will visit their sin upon them. Exodus 32:34.

[3] The fact that the close means the end of the Church is clear from the following places: In Jeremiah,

With Israel and with Judah I will not bring about the close 2 , but I will not treat you as one who is at all innocent 3 , because there is no hope for your fracture; the wound is grievous. You have no restorative medicaments. Jeremiah 30:11-13; 46:28.

In the same prophet,

Your iniquity, O daughter of Zion, has been brought to a close. He will visit your iniquity, O daughter of Edom, He will reveal your sins. Lamentations 4:22.

In Daniel,

Seventy weeks have been decreed concerning your people, to bring transgression to a close and to seal up sins and to atone for iniquity. At length upon the bird of abominations will come desolation; and until the close ... Daniel 9:24, 27.

In Matthew,

The harvest is the close of the age. As the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so will it be at the close of the age. Matthew 13:39-40.

In the same gospel,

The disciples said to Jesus, Tell us, what will be the sign of Your coming and of the close of the age? Matthew 24:3.

In the same gospel,

Jesus said, Behold I am with you at all times 4 even to the close of the age. Matthew 28:20.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. i.e. when he does not absolve is added to absolving; literally, and absolving He does not absolve

2. i.e. He will not make an end of Israel and Judah, as He will of the nations among whom they are exiled

3. literally, nor rendering will I render you innocent

4. literally, I am with you all the days
