Jeremija 30

Studie

   

1 Sõna, mis Jeremijale tuli Issandalt; ta ütles:

2 'Nõnda räägib Issand, Iisraeli Jumal, ja ütleb: Kirjuta kõik sõnad, mis ma sulle olen rääkinud, enesele raamatusse!

3 Sest vaata, päevad tulevad, ütleb Issand, mil ma pööran oma Iisraeli ja Juuda rahva vangipõlve, ütleb Issand, ja ma toon nad tagasi maale, mille ma andsin nende vanemaile, ja nad pärivad selle.'

4 Ja need on sõnad, mis Issand rääkis Iisraeli ja Juuda kohta,

5 sest nõnda ütleb Issand: 'Me oleme kuulnud hirmukisa; on kartus, aga mitte rahu.

6 Küsige ometi ja vaadake: kas meesterahvas sünnitab? Mispärast ma näen iga meest käed puusas nagu sünnitajal naisel, ja mispärast on kõik näod muutunud kahvatuks?

7 Häda! Sest see päev on suur, sellesarnast ei ole. See on Jaakobile ahastuse aeg, aga ta päästetakse sellest.

8 Ja sel päeval, ütleb vägede Issand, ma murran ikke su kaelast ja kisun katki su köidikud; ja muulased ei pane neid enam teenima,

9 vaid nad teenivad Issandat, oma Jumalat, ja Taavetit, oma kuningat, kelle ma neile tõstan.

10 Aga sina, mu sulane Jaakob, ära karda, ütleb Issand, ja Iisrael, ära ehmu! Sest vaata, ma päästan sind kaugelt ja sinu soo nende vangipõlvemaalt. Jaakob tuleb tagasi ning elab rahus ja muretult, ilma et keegi teda hirmutaks.

11 Sest mina olen sinuga, ütleb Issand, et sind päästa. Ma teen lõpu kõigile rahvaile, kelle sekka ma sind olen pillutanud. Aga sinule ma ei tee lõppu: ma karistan sind õiglaselt, aga hoopis karistamata ma sind küll ei jäta.

12 Sest nõnda ütleb Issand: Su vigastus on ravimatu, su haav on valus.

13 Ei ole kedagi, kes kaitseks su õigust, mädapaisel ei ole paranemist, sulle ei kasva korpa.

14 Kõik su armukesed on sind unustanud, nad ei küsi su järele. Sest ma olen sind löönud, nagu lüüakse vaenlast halastamatu karistusega, sellepärast et su süü on suur, et su patte on palju.

15 Miks sa kisendad oma haava pärast, et su valu on vaigistamatu? Su suure süü, su paljude pattude pärast olen ma sulle seda teinud.

16 Ometi õgitakse ära kõik, kes sind õgivad, ja kõik, kes sind rõhuvad - viimane kui üks läheb vangi; kes sind rüüstavad, saavad rüüstatavaiks, ja kõik, kes võtavad sind saagiks, annan ma saagiks.

17 Sest ma tahan lasta kasvada sulle korba ja ravida sind sinu haavadest, ütleb Issand, sellepärast et sind on nimetatud hüljatuks: 'Siion, kellest ükski ei hooli!'

18 Nõnda ütleb Issand: Vaata, ma pööran Jaakobi telkide vangipõlve ja ma halastan tema eluasemete peale; linn ehitatakse üles oma rusuhunnikule ja palee asub seal, kus see peab asuma.

19 Sealt kostab tänulaul ja rõõmsate hääl. Ma teen nad paljuks ja nad ei vähene, ma teen nad auväärseiks ja neid ei halvustata.

20 Siis on ta pojad nagu muistegi ja ta kogudus seisab kindlana mu ees. Ja ma karistan kõiki ta piinajaid.

21 Temast enesest tuleb ta aukandja ja tema keskelt ilmub ta valitseja; ma luban teda ligineda ja ta tuleb mu juurde, sest kes muidu annaks pandiks oma südame, et minule ligineda? ütleb Issand.

22 Siis te olete mu rahvas ja mina olen teie Jumal.

23 Vaata, Issanda torm, raev, puhkeb, ja keeristorm keerutab üle õelate pea.

24 Issanda viha ei pöördu enne, kui ta on teoks teinud ja korda saatnud oma tahtmise. Viimseil päevil te mõistate seda.

Word

  

'Word,' as in Isaiah 9:8, signifies the doctrine of internal and external worship. 'Word,' as in Psalms 119:6-17, stands for doctrine in general.

'The Word,' as in Psalms 147:18, signifies divine good united with divine truth.

The whole Word is nothing but the doctrine of love towards the Lord, and love towards our neighbor, as in Matthew 22.

1288. That 'words were one' means that they held to the same doctrine in its particular details is clear from what has been stated already, for 'lip' means doctrine in general, as has been shown, while 'words' means doctrine in detail, that is, particular details of doctrine. These, as has been stated make no difference provided they have the same end in view, which is to love the Lord above all things and the neighbour as oneself. When they do so they are the details that contribute to the general whole.

[2] That 'the Word' means all doctrine concerning charity and faith derived from it and that 'words' means the details that constitute doctrine is clear in David,

I will confess You with uprightness of heart, when I learn Your righteous judgements I will keep Your statutes. How will a young man make pure his path? By observing Your Word. With my whole heart I have sought You; cause me not to wander from Your commandments I have laid up Your Word in my heart that I might not sin against You. Blessed are You, O Jehovah; teach me Your statutes! With my lips I have declared all the judgements of Your mouth. I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies. I meditate on Your commands and look to Your ways. I delight in Your statutes, I do not forget Your Word. Psalms 119:7-16.

'The Word' stands for doctrine in general. The fact that here commandments, judgements, testimonies, commands, statutes, way, and lips, are distinguished shows plainly that they are all features of the Word, that is, of doctrine. The same applies wherever else in the Word these terms are used with different meanings.

[3] In the same author,

A love song. My heart is pondering 1 a goodly theme. 2 My tongue is the pen of a ready scribe You are the fairest of the sons of man. Grace has poured out from your lips. Ride on the word of truth, and of the meekness of righteousness Your right hand will teach you marvellous things. Psalms 45:1-2, 4.

'Riding on the word of truth, and of the meekness of righteousness' is teaching the doctrine of truth and good. Here, as elsewhere in the Word, word, mouth, lip, and tongue mean differing things. The fact that they all have to do with doctrine concerning charity is clear because it is called 'a love song', and it is to this doctrine that 'the fairest of the sons of man', 'grace on the lips', and 'a right hand that teaches marvellous things' have reference.

[4] In Isaiah,

The Lord 3 has sent a word into Jacob, and it has fallen on Israel. Isaiah 9:8.

'A word' stands for the doctrine of internal and external worship. Here 'Jacob' stands for external worship, 'Israel' for internal. In Matthew,

Jesus said, Man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that goes out of the mouth of God. Matthew 4:4.

In the same gospel,

When anyone hears the word of the kingdom and does not give heed to it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. Matthew 13:19

'The word' is again referred to in verses 20-23 of that chapter. In the same gospel,

Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away. Matthew 24:35.

Here 'word' stands for the Lord's doctrine and 'words' for the things that constitute His doctrine.

[5] Since the term 'words' stands for everything that constitutes doctrine the Ten Commandments are therefore called 'words' in Moses,

Jehovah. wrote on the tables the words of the covenant, the ten words. Exodus 34:28.

In the same author,

He declared to you His covenant which He commanded you to perform, the ten words, and He wrote them on two tables of stone. Deuteronomy 4:13; 10:4.

In the same author,

Take heed, and guard your soul diligently, lest perhaps you forget the things 4 which your eyes have seen. Deuteronomy 4:9.

And there are further examples besides these.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. The first Latin edition reads voluit (has willed) but comparison with the original Hebrew shows that volvit (is turning over or is pondering) is intended.

2. literally, a good word

3. The Latin has Jehovah but the Hebrew has the name meaning Lord, which Swedenborg has in another place where he quotes this verse.

4. literally, the words
