Eliro 22

Studie

   

1 Se iu sxtelos bovon aux sxafon kaj bucxos gxin aux vendos gxin, tiam li pagu kvin bovojn pro la bovo kaj kvar sxafojn pro la sxafo.

2 Se iu trovos sxtelanton cxe subfosado kaj batos lin kaj tiu mortos, tiam oni ne jugxu lin pro la sango.

3 Sed se lumis super li la suno, tiam oni jugxu lin pro la sango. La sxtelinto pagu kompenson; se li ne havas, tiam oni lin vendu pro lia sxtelo.

4 Se la sxtelitajxo, cxu gxi estas bovo, cxu azeno, cxu sxafo, estos trovita en liaj manoj viva, tiam li kompensu duoble.

5 Se iu difektos kampon aux vinberejon, lasante sian bruton, ke gxi difektu kampon de aliulo, tiam li devas pagi per plejbonajxo el sia kampo kaj per plejbonajxo el sia vinberejo.

6 Se eliros fajro kaj trafos dornojn kaj ekstermos garbojn aux starantan grenon aux kampon, tiam tiu kompensu, kiu kauxzis la brulon.

7 Se iu donos al sia proksimulo monon aux uzatajxojn, por konservi, kaj ili estos sxtelitaj el la domo de tiu homo, tiam, se la sxtelinto estos trovita, li kompensu duoble.

8 Se la sxtelinto ne estos trovita, tiam la mastro de la domo venu al la potenculoj, kaj jxuru, ke li ne etendis sian manon sur la apartenajxon de sia proksimulo.

9 Pri cxiu maljustajxo, cxu gxi estos pri bovo, cxu pri azeno, cxu pri sxafo, cxu pri vesto, pri cxiu perditajxo, pri kiu iu diros, ke gxi estas lia, la afero de ambaux devas esti prezentita al la potenculoj; kiun la potenculoj trovos kulpa, tiu kompensu duoble al sia proksimulo.

10 Se iu donos al sia proksimulo azenon aux bovon aux sxafon aux alian bruton, por konservi, kaj gxi mortos aux estos difektita aux forkaptita, kaj neniu tion vidos,

11 tiam jxuro antaux la Eternulo estu inter ili, ke li ne etendis sian manon sur la apartenajxon de sia proksimulo, kaj gxia mastro gxin prenos kaj li ne kompensos.

12 Sed se oni gxin sxtelos de li, tiam li devas kompensi al gxia mastro.

13 Se gxi estos dissxirita, li prezentu ateston, kaj la dissxiritajxon li ne kompensos.

14 Se iu gxin prenos prunte de sia proksimulo, kaj gxi estos difektita aux mortos dum foresto de sia mastro, tiam li devas kompensi.

15 Se gxia mastro estis apud gxi, tiam li ne devas kompensi. Se gxi estis dungita, li perdis sian dungomonon.

16 Se iu forlogos virgulinon, kiu ne estas fiancxinigita, kaj kusxos kun sxi, tiam li donu al sxi doton kaj prenu sxin al si kiel edzinon.

17 Se sxia patro ne volos doni sxin al li, tiam li pagu tiom da mono, kiom virgulinoj ordinare ricevas dote.

18 Sorcxistinon ne lasu vivi.

19 CXiu, kiu kusxis kun bruto, estu mortigita.

20 Kiu alportas oferojn al dioj, krom al la Eternulo sole, tiu estu ekstermita.

21 Fremdulon ne ofendu, nek premu lin; cxar fremduloj vi estis en la lando Egipta.

22 Vidvinon kaj orfon ne premu.

23 Se vi ilin premos kaj ili krios al Mi, tiam Mi auxdos ilian krion;

24 kaj ekflamos Mia kolero, kaj Mi mortigos vin per glavo, kaj viaj edzinoj estos vidvinoj kaj viaj infanoj estos orfoj.

25 Se vi pruntedonos monon al iu el Mia popolo, al iu malricxulo apud vi, ne estu por li premanto, ne metu sur lin procentojn.

26 Se vi prenos de via proksimulo veston kiel garantiajxon, tiam antaux la subiro de la suno redonu gxin al li;

27 cxar gxi estas lia sola kovro, gxi estas la vesto por lia korpo; en kio li dormos? kaj kiam li krios al Mi, Mi auxdos, cxar Mi estas favorkora.

28 Potenculojn ne malbenu, kaj estron de via popolo ne insultu.

29 Vian abundon kaj sukon ne retenu; la unuenaskiton el viaj filoj vi devas doni al Mi.

30 Tiel same agu kun via bovo kaj via sxafo; sep tagojn gxi restu kun sia patrino, en la oka tago donu gxin al Mi.

31 Estu por Mi sanktaj homoj; kaj viandon, dissxiritan sur la kampo, ne mangxu; al hundo jxetu gxin.

9183. 'And lies with her' means a wrongful joining together. This is clear from the meaning of 'lying with a virgin who has [not] been betrothed' as a wrongful joining together. For 'being betrothed' means a joining of the internal man, whereas 'lying with' means a joining of the external man, dealt with immediately above in 9182.

2235. That 'righteousness' means in regard to good, and 'judgement' to truth, becomes clear from the meaning of 'righteousness' and from the meaning of 'judgement'. Righteousness and judgement are mentioned together many times in the Word, but what they mean in the internal sense has not yet been known. In the proximate sense 'righteousness' has reference to that which is righteous, and 'judgement' to that which is upright. That which is righteous occurs when something is judged from good, and according to conscience, but that which is upright when it is judged from law, and so from the righteous demands of the law, thus also according to conscience since the law gives conscience its standards. In the internal sense however, 'righteousness' is that which stems from good, and 'judgement' that which stems from truth. Good is everything that belongs to love and charity, truth everything that belongs to faith derived from love and charity. Truth derives its essence from good, and is called truth derived from good, just as faith is derived from love, and so also judgement from righteousness.

[2] That such is the meaning of 'righteousness and judgement' is clear from the following places in the Word: In Jeremiah,

Thus said Jehovah, Do judgement and righteousness, and deliver the plundered out of the hand of the oppressor. Woe to him who builds his house in unrighteousness, and his upper rooms not in judgement! Did not your father eat and drink, and do judgement and righteousness? Then it was well with him. Jeremiah 22:3, 13, 15.

'Judgement' stands for the things connected with truth, 'righteousness' for those connected with good. In Ezekiel,

If the wicked man turns away from his sin and does judgement and righteousness, all his sins which he has committed will not be remembered; he has done judgement and righteousness; he will surely live. When the wicked turns away from his wickedness and does judgement and righteousness he will live because of these. Ezekiel 33:14, 16, 19.

Here similarly 'judgement' stands for the truth of faith, and 'righteousness' for the good of charity.

[3] In Amos,

Let judgement flow like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream. Amos 5:24.

Here the meaning is similar. In Isaiah,

Thus said Jehovah, Keep judgement and do righteousness, for My salvation is near to come, and My righteousness to reveal itself. Isaiah 56:1.

In the same prophet,

To peace there will be no end, upon the throne of David and over his kingdom, to establish it and to uphold it in judgement and righteousness, from now and even for evermore. Isaiah 9:7.

Here 'judgement and righteousness' stands for the existence with them of the truths of faith, and of the goods of charity. In the same prophet,

Jehovah is exalted, for He dwells on high. He has filled Zion with judgement and righteousness. Isaiah 33:5.

'Judgement' stands for faith, 'righteousness' for love, 'Zion' for the Church. 'Judgement' is mentioned first because love comes through faith; but when 'righteousness' is mentioned first it is for the reason that faith is derived from love, as in Hosea,

I will betroth you to Me for ever, and I will betroth you to Me in righteousness and judgement, and in mercy and in compassion, 1 and I will betroth you to Me in faith, and you will know Jehovah. Hosea 2:19-20.

Here 'righteousness' is mentioned first, as also is 'mercy', which are the attributes of love, while 'judgement' is mentioned second, as also is 'compassion', which are the attributes of faith that is derived from love. And both are called 'faith' or faithfulness.

[4] In David,

O Jehovah, Your mercy is in the heavens; Your truth reaches up to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mountains of God, Your judgements like the great deep. Psalms 36:5-6.

Here both 'mercy' and 'righteousness' are in a similar way the attributes of love, while 'truth' and 'judgements' are those of faith. In the same author,

Let truth spring out of the ground, and let righteousness look down from heaven. Jehovah will indeed give what is good, and our land will give its increase. Psalms 85:11-12.

Here 'truth', which constitutes faith, stands for judgement, and 'righteousness' for love or mercy. In Zechariah,

I will lead them and they will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem, and they will be My people, and I will be their God in truth and in righteousness. Zechariah 8:8.

From this place also it is evident that 'judgement' is truth and 'righteousness' good, since 'truth' is mentioned here in place of judgement. Similarly in David,

He who walks blameless and performs righteousness and speaks the truth. Psalms 15:2.

[5] Because faith is grounded in charity, that is, because truth is grounded in good, truths rooted in good are in various places called 'the judgements of righteousness', so that 'judgements' has virtually the same meaning as commandments, as in Isaiah,

Let them seek Me day by day and desire the knowledge of My ways, as though a nation that does righteousness and does not forsake the judgement of their God. Let them ask of Me the judgements of righteousness, let them desire the approach of God. Isaiah 58:2.

That 'commandments' means virtually the same may be seen in David,

Seven times in the day I have praised You for Your judgements of righteousness. All Your commandments are righteousness. Psalms 119:164, 172.

It is said in particular of the Lord that He performs 'judgement and righteousness' when He creates man anew, as in Jeremiah,

Let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am Jehovah who performs mercy, judgement and righteousness in the earth; for in these things I am well pleased. Jeremiah 9:24.

Here mercy, which is an attribute of love, is described as 'judgement and righteousness'. In the same prophet,

I will raise up for David a righteous branch, and he will rule as king, and act intelligently, and execute judgement and righteousness in the land. Jeremiah 23:5; 33:15.

[6] Hence the following in John,

If I go away I will send the Paraclete to you. And when He comes He will convince the world in regard to sin and righteousness and judgement: in regard to sin, because they do not believe in Me; in regard to righteousness, because I go away to the Father, and you will see Me no more; in regard to judgement, because the prince of this world is judged. John 16:7-11.

'Sin' here stands for all faithlessness. 'He will convince in regard to righteousness' means in regard to everything that is contrary to good, when yet the Lord united the Human to the Divine to save the world, meant by 'I go away to the Father and you will see Me no more'. 'In regard to judgement' means in regard to everything that is contrary to the truth, when yet evils were cast down into their own hells so that they could not do harm any more, meant by 'the prince of this world is judged'. In general 'He will convince in regard to sin, righteousness, and judgement' means in regard to all faithlessness contrary to good and truth, and so means that no charity and faith exist. For in ancient times righteousness and judgement were used, in reference to the Lord, to mean all mercy and grace, but in reference to man all charity and faith.
