Jeremiah 43

Studie

   

1 Kuin Jeremia oli kaikki Herran heidän Jumalansa sanat kaikelle kansalle puhunut, niinkuin Herra heidän Jumalansa hänen oli lähettänyt sanomaan heille kaikki nämä sanat:

2 Sanoi Asaria Hosajan poika, ja Johanan Karean poika, ja kaikki ylpiät miehet Jeremialle ja puhuivat: sinä valehtelet, ei Herra meidän Jumalamme ole lähettänyt sinua eikä sanonut: ei teidän pidä menemän Egyptiin asumaan siellä;

3 Mutta Baruk Nerijan poika yllyttää sinua meitä vastaan, että me annettaisiin Kaldealaisten käsiin, tapettaa ja vietää Babeliin.

4 Näin ei tahtonut Johanan Karean poika, ja kaikki sodanpäämiehet, ja kaikki kansa totella Herran ääntä, että he olisivat pysyneet Juudan maalla.

5 Vaan Johanan Karean poika ja kaikki sodanpäämiehet ottivat tykönsä kaikki jääneet Juudasta, ne jotka kaikista kansoista sinne paenneet ja palanneet olivat asumaan Juudan maalla;

6 Miehet ja vaimot ja lapset, niin myös kuninkaan tyttäret, ja kaikki sielut, jotka Nebusaradan, huovinhaltia, Gedalian Ahikamin pojan, Saphanin pojan, haltuun oli jättänyt, ja propheta Jeremian ja Barukin Nerijan pojan.

7 Ja menivät Egyptin maalle, sillä ei he tahtoneet kuulla Herran ääntä, ja tulivat Tahpanhekseen.

8 Ja Herran sana tapahtui Jeremialle Tahpanheksessa ja sanoi:

9 Ota kätees suuret kivet, ja kaiva ne maahan tiilipätsiin, joka on Pharaon huoneen oven kohdalla Tahpanheksessa, niin että Juudan miehet sen näkevät.

10 Ja sano heille: näin sanoo Herra Zebaot, Israelin Jumala: katso, minä lähetän ja annan noutaa palveliani Nebukadnetsarin, Babelin kuninkaan, ja asetan hänen istuimensa näiden kivien päälle, jotka minä olen tähän maahan kaivanut; ja hän on paneva majansa sen päälle.

11 Ja hän on tuleva ja lyövä Egyptin maata; jotka kuolemaan (aiotut ovat), ne (joutuvat) kuolemaan, ja jotka vankiuteen, ne vankiuteen, ja jotka miekkaan, ne miekkaan.

12 Ja minä sytytän tulen epäjumalain huoneisiin Egyptissä, niin että hän polttaa ja vie heidät pois; ja hänen pitää puettaman itsensä Egyptin maahan, niinkuin paimen puettaa itsensä hameesensa, ja pitää menemän sieltä matkaansa rauhassa.

13 Ja hänen pitää murskaksi lyömän Betsemeksen patsaat Egyptissä, ja polttaman Egyptin epäjumalain huoneet tulella.

93. Since the angel Gabriel said to Mary, "The Holy One that will be born from you will be called the Son of God," I will now quote passages from the Word to show that the Lord in his human manifestation is called "the Holy One of Israel":

I was seeing in visions, behold a Wakeful and Holy One coming down from heaven. (Daniel 4:13, 23)

God will come from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. (Habakkuk 3:3)

I, Jehovah, am holy, the Creator of Israel, your Holy One. (Isaiah 43:15)

Thus said Jehovah, the Redeemer of Israel, its Holy One. (Isaiah 49:7)

I am Jehovah your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. (Isaiah 43:1, 3)

As for our Redeemer, Jehovah Sabaoth is his name, the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 47:4)

Thus says Jehovah, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 43:14; 48:17)

Jehovah Sabaoth is his name, and your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 54:5)

They challenged God and the Holy One of Israel. (Psalms 78:41)

They have abandoned Jehovah and provoked the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 1:4)

They said, "Cause the Holy One of Israel to cease from our faces. Therefore thus said the Holy One of Israel. " (Isaiah 30:11-12)

Those who say, "His work should go quickly so we may see it; and the counsel of the Holy One of Israel should approach and come. " (Isaiah 5:19)

In that day they will depend on Jehovah, on the Holy One of Israel, in truth. (Isaiah 10:20)

Shout and rejoice, daughter of Zion, because great in your midst is the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 12:6)

A saying of the God of Israel: "In that day his eyes will look toward the Holy One of Israel. " (Isaiah 17:7)

The poor among people will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel. (Isaiah 29:19; 41:16)

The earth is full of guilt against the Holy One of Israel. (Jeremiah 50:29)

Also see Isaiah 55:5; 60:9; and elsewhere.

"The Holy One of Israel" means the Lord in his divine human manifestation, for the angel says to Mary, "The Holy One that will be born from you will be called the Son of God" (Luke 1:35).

From the passages just cited that describe Jehovah as the Holy One of Israel, you can see that although the names are different, "Jehovah" and "the Holy One of Israel" are one.

Many, many passages show that the Lord is called the God of Israel, such as Isaiah 17:6; 21:10, 17; 24:15; 29:23; Jeremiah 7:3; 9:15; 11:3; 13:12; 16:9; 19:3, 15; 23:2; 24:5; 25:15, 27; 29:4, 8, 21, 25; 30:2; 31:23; 32:14-15, 36; 33:4; 34:2, 13; 35:13, 17-19; 37:7; 38:17; 39:16; 42:9, 15, 18; 43:10; 44:2, 7, 11, 25; 48:1; 50:18; 51:33; Ezekiel 8:4; 9:3; 10:19-20; 11:22; 43:2; 44:2; Zephaniah 2:9; and Psalms 41:13; 59:5; 68:8.

Matthew 22

Studie

   

1 Jesus answered and spoke again in parables to them, saying,

2 "The Kingdom of Heaven is like a certain king, who made a marriage feast for his son,

3 and sent out his servants to call those who were invited to the marriage feast, but they would not come.

4 Again he sent out other servants, saying, 'Tell those who are invited, "Behold, I have prepared my dinner. My cattle and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage feast!"'

5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his own farm, another to his merchandise,

6 and the rest grabbed his servants, and treated them shamefully, and killed them.

7 When the king heard that, he was angry, and sent his armies, destroyed those murderers, and burned their city.

8 "Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding is ready, but those who were invited weren't worthy.

9 Go therefore to the intersections of the highways, and as many as you may find, invite to the marriage feast.'

10 Those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together as many as they found, both bad and good. The wedding was filled with guests.

11 But when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man who didn't have on wedding clothing,

12 and he said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here not wearing wedding clothing?' He was speechless.

13 Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness; there is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.'

14 For many are called, but few chosen."

15 Then the Pharisees went and took counsel how they might entrap him in his talk.

16 They sent their disciples to him, along with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are honest, and teach the way of God in truth, no matter who you teach, for you aren't partial to anyone.

17 Tell us therefore, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar, or not?"

18 But Jesus perceived their wickedness, and said, "Why do you test me, you hypocrites?

19 Show me the tax money." They brought to him a denarius.

20 He asked them, "Whose is this image and inscription?"

21 They said to him, "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."

22 When they heard it, they marveled, and left him, and went away.

23 On that day Sadducees (those who say that there is no resurrection) came to him. They asked him,

24 saying, "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies, having no children, his brother shall marry his wife, and raise up seed for his brother.'

25 Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died, and having no seed left his wife to his brother.

26 In the same way, the second also, and the third, to the seventh.

27 After them all, the woman died.

28 In the resurrection therefore, whose wife will she be of the seven? For they all had her."

29 But Jesus answered them, "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God.

30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like God's angels in heaven.

31 But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven't you read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,

32 'I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?' God is not the God of the dead, but of the living."

33 When the multitudes heard it, they were astonished at his teaching.

34 But the Pharisees, when they heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, gathered themselves together.

35 One of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, testing him.

36 "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?"

37 Jesus said to him, "'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.'

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 A second likewise is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'

40 The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments."

41 Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,

42 saying, "What do you think of the Christ? Whose son is he?" They said to him, "A Psalm of David."

43 He said to them, "How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,

44 'The Lord said to my Lord, sit on my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet?'

45 "If then David calls him Lord, how is he his son?"

46 No one was able to answer him a word, neither did any man dare ask him any more questions from that day forth.
