Deuteronoomia 10

Studie

   

1 Tol korral ütles Issand minule: 'Raiu enesele kaks kivilauda, endiste sarnased, ja tule mu juurde üles mäele! Ja valmista enesele puulaegas!

2 Mina kirjutan laudadele need sõnad, mis olid endistel laudadel, mis sa puruks lõid, ja pane need laekasse!'

3 Siis ma valmistasin akaatsiapuust laeka ja raiusin kaks kivilauda, endiste sarnased; siis ma läksin üles mäele ja need kaks kivilauda olid mul käes.

4 Ja tema kirjutas laudadele endise kirja sarnaselt need kümme käsusõna, mis Issand oli kogunemispäeval teile kõnelnud mäe peal tule seest. Ja Issand andis need mulle.

5 Siis ma pöördusin ümber, tulin mäelt alla ja panin lauad laekasse, mille ma olin valmistanud, ja need jäid sinna, nagu Issand oli mulle käsu andnud.

6 Ja Iisraeli lapsed läksid teele Beerot-Bene-Jaakanist Mooserasse. Seal suri Aaron ja ta maeti sinna. Ja tema poeg Eleasar sai tema asemel preestriks.

7 Ja sealt läksid nad teele Gudgodasse, ja Gudgodast Jotbatasse, veeojade maale.

8 Sel ajal eraldas Issand Leevi suguharu kandma seaduselaegast, seisma Issanda palge ees, teenima teda ja õnnistama tema nimel kuni tänapäevani.

9 Sellepärast ei ole Leevil osa ega pärandit koos vendadega; Issand on tema pärisosa, nagu Issand, su Jumal, temale on öelnud.

10 Ja ma viibisin mäel niisama kaua kui eelmisel korral, nelikümmend päeva ja nelikümmend ööd, ja Issand kuulis mind ka seekord: Issand ei tahtnud sind hukata.

11 Ja Issand ütles mulle: 'Võta kätte, käi teele minnes rahva ees, et nad läheksid ja päriksid maa, mille ma vandega nende vanemaile olen tõotanud neile anda!'

12 Ja nüüd, Iisrael, mida nõuab Issand, su Jumal, sinult muud, kui et sa kardaksid Issandat, oma Jumalat, käiksid kõigil tema teedel ja armastaksid teda, ja et sa teeniksid Issandat, oma Jumalat, kõigest oma südamest ja kõigest oma hingest,

13 et sa peaksid Issanda käske ja seadusi, mis ma täna sulle annan, et su käsi hästi käiks?

14 Vaata, Issanda, su Jumala päralt on taevas ja taevaste taevas, maa ja kõik, mis seal on.

15 Üksnes sinu vanemaid on Issand eelistanud, armastades neid, ja on pärast neid valinud nende soo, see on teid, kõigi rahvaste seast, nagu see tänapäeval on.

16 Lõigake siis ümber oma südame eesnahk ja ärge enam tehke oma kaela kangeks,

17 sest Issand, teie Jumal, on jumalate Jumal ja isandate Isand, suur, vägev ja kardetav Jumal, kes ei vaata isiku peale ega võta vastu meelehead,

18 kes teeb õigust vaeslapsele ja lesknaisele ja kes armastab võõrast, andes temale leiba ja riiet.

19 Seepärast armastage võõrast, sest te olete ise olnud võõrad Egiptusemaal!

20 Issandat, oma Jumalat, pead sa kartma, teda pead sa teenima ja tema poole hoidma ning tema nime juures vanduma!

21 Tema on su kiitus ja tema on su Jumal, kes sulle on teinud neid suuri ja kohutavaid tegusid, mida su silmad on näinud.

22 Seitsmekümne hingega läksid su vanemad alla Egiptusesse, aga nüüd on Issand, su Jumal, teinud sind rohkuse poolest taevatähtede sarnaseks.

2827. 'And have not withheld your son, your only son, from Me' means the union of the Human to the Divine which was effected by means of the final degree of temptation. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'your son', that is to say, Isaac, as the Divine Rational, dealt with already, or the Divine Human since this has its beginnings in the Rational, 2106, 2194, the expression 'only' being used because it was the only begotten, see 2773; and from the meaning of 'not withholding from Met as causing it to be united, namely to the Divine itself. As regards this union being effected by means of the final degree of temptation, this is evident from all that has gone before.

2 Kings 16

Studie

   

1 In the seventeenth year of Pekah the son of Remaliah Ahaz the son of Jotham king of Judah began to reign.

2 Twenty years old was Ahaz when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and he didn't do that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh his God, like David his father.

3 But he walked in the way of the kings of Israel, yes, and made his son to pass through the fire, according to the abominations of the nations, whom Yahweh cast out from before the children of Israel.

4 He sacrificed and burnt incense in the high places, and on the hills, and under every green tree.

5 Then Rezin king of Syria and Pekah son of Remaliah king of Israel came up to Jerusalem to war: and they besieged Ahaz, but could not overcome him.

6 At that time Rezin king of Syria recovered Elath to Syria, and drove the Jews from Elath; and the Syrians came to Elath, and lived there, to this day.

7 So Ahaz sent messengers to Tiglath Pileser king of Assyria, saying, "I am your servant and your son. Come up, and save me out of the hand of the king of Syria, and out of the hand of the king of Israel, who rise up against me."

8 Ahaz took the silver and gold that was found in the house of Yahweh, and in the treasures of the king's house, and sent it for a present to the king of Assyria.

9 The king of Assyria listened to him; and the king of Assyria went up against Damascus, and took it, and carried [the people of] it captive to Kir, and killed Rezin.

10 King Ahaz went to Damascus to meet Tiglath Pileser king of Assyria, and saw the altar that was at Damascus; and king Ahaz sent to Urijah the priest the fashion of the altar, and its pattern, according to all its workmanship.

11 Urijah the priest built an altar: according to all that king Ahaz had sent from Damascus, so did Urijah the priest make it against the coming of king Ahaz from Damascus.

12 When the king was come from Damascus, the king saw the altar: and the king drew near to the altar, and offered thereon.

13 He burnt his burnt offering and his meal offering, and poured his drink offering, and sprinkled the blood of his peace offerings, on the altar.

14 The bronze altar, which was before Yahweh, he brought from the forefront of the house, from between his altar and the house of Yahweh, and put it on the north side of his altar.

15 King Ahaz commanded Urijah the priest, saying, "On the great altar burn the morning burnt offering, and the evening meal offering, and the king's burnt offering, and his meal offering, with the burnt offering of all the people of the land, and their meal offering, and their drink offerings; and sprinkle on it all the blood of the burnt offering, and all the blood of the sacrifice; but the bronze altar shall be for me to inquire by."

16 Urijah the priest did so, according to all that king Ahaz commanded.

17 King Ahaz cut off the panels of the bases, and removed the basin from off them, and took down the sea from off the bronze oxen that were under it, and put it on a pavement of stone.

18 The covered way for the Sabbath that they had built in the house, and the king's entry outside, turned he to the house of Yahweh, because of the king of Assyria.

19 Now the rest of the acts of Ahaz which he did, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

20 Ahaz slept with his fathers, and was buried with his fathers in the city of David: and Hezekiah his son reigned in his place.
