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.

9193. 'Shall be utterly destroyed' means being cast out. This is clear from the meaning of 'being utterly destroyed', when it refers to people whose worship is that of falsities arising from evil, as being cast out, that is to say, cast out of the Church. The fact that casting such falsities out of the Church, and so rooting them out, is meant by their being 'utterly destroyed', is evident in Moses,

If men of belial 1 have gone out of your midst, and have urged the inhabitants of their city, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, whom you have not known - if it is true and certain, 2 that [this] abomination has been committed in the midst of you - you shall surely strike the inhabitants of that city with the edge of the sword. You shall utterly destroy it and everyone who is in it, and also the beasts in it, with the edge of the sword. You shall bring together all the spoil from it into the middle of the street, and shall burn the city with fire, and all the spoil from it, the whole of it, to Jehovah your God, so that it may be a heap forever and not be built ever again. Do it so thoroughly that nothing of what is given to utter destruction sticks in your hand. Deuteronomy 13:13-17.

[2] The fact that falsity arising from evil is what 'that which is given to utter destruction' means is evident from the details of these verses in the internal sense. 'Cities' which were to be utterly destroyed are religious teachings, in this instance false teachings, 2712, 2943, 3216. 'The edge of the sword' with which they were to strike man and beast is truth fighting against and destroying falsity that arises from evil, 2799, 4499, 7102, 8294. 'The street' into the middle of which the spoil was to be brought is truth presented by religious teachings and in the contrary sense falsity presented by them, 2336. 'Fire' with which the spoil was to be burned along with the city is the evil of self-love, 1297, 2446, 5071, 5215, 6314, 6832, 7324. From all this it is evident that 'utter destruction' means being cast out of the Church and being rooted out. Therefore also it was commanded that the nations in the land of Canaan should be utterly destroyed, Deuteronomy 7:2, 24-26. For the nations had originally constituted the Church in that land, which also was why they had altars and in addition offered sacrifices, 3686, 4447, 4516, 4517, 5136, 6306, 6516, 8054. But when they turned representative worship - the worship of the Ancient Church - into idolatrous worship, and in so doing falsified truths and adulterated forms of good, 8317, the command came for them to be given to utter destruction, not only people but also cities and what was in them.

[3] The command came because everything there represented falsities arising from evil. The cities represented the actual teachings presenting falsity; the beasts represented evil affections; the gold and silver of those people represented evils and falsities; and so on with everything else. The worship of the Ancient Church had consisted first and foremost in worshipping God in human form, that is, in worshipping the Lord. But then they turned aside from good to evil and began to worship the actual objects that had served to represent Him, such as the sun, moon, and stars, also groves and pillars, and God in the form of various kinds of idols. Thus they worshipped external objects separated from anything of an internal nature; and this is brought about when the internal man has been closed. What closes the internal man is a life of evil; for good is that through which the Lord flows in and opens the internal man, and therefore evil is that which closes this. Once the internal man has been closed truths are turned into falsities; and when they remain they serve solely the evils of self-love and love of the world. Internal worship consists first and foremost in acknowledging the Lord, the one and only God, and in acknowledging that He is the source of everything good and true. People in the Church who do not acknowledge Him cannot be governed by good, nor thus by truth; and the ones to acknowledge Him are those who possess faith and at the same time lead a good life, but not those who lead a bad life, 8878. Acknowledging and worshipping the Lord consists in living according to His commandments, that is, leading the life of faith and of charity, see 8252-8257. The life of faith lies in doing His commandments in a spirit of obedience, and the life of charity lies in doing them out of love.
