Hesekiel 13

Studie

   

1 Ja minulle tuli tämä Herran sana:

2 "Ihmislapsi, ennusta Israelin ennustavista profeetoista ja sano noille, jotka ovat profeettoja oman sydämensä voimasta: Kuulkaa Herran sana.

3 Näin sanoo Herra, Herra: Voi profeettahoukkia, jotka seuraavat omaa henkeänsä ja sitä, mitä eivät ole nähneet!

4 Niinkuin ketut raunioissa ovat sinun profeettasi, Israel.

5 Te ette ole nousseet muurin aukkoihin ettekä korjanneet muuria Israelin heimon ympärillä, että se kestäisi sodassa, Herran päivänä.

6 Mitä he ovat nähneet, on petosta, ja heidän ennustelunsa on valhetta, kun he sanovat: 'Näin sanoo Herra', vaikka Herra ei ole heitä lähettänyt; ja he muka odottavat, että hän toteuttaisi heidän sanansa.

7 Ettekö ole petollisia näkyjä nähneet ja valhe-ennusteluja puhuneet, kun olette sanoneet: 'Näin sanoo Herra', vaikka minä en ole puhunut?

8 Sentähden, näin sanoo Herra, Herra: Koska te olette puhuneet petosta ja nähneet valhenäkyjä, niin sentähden, katso, minä käyn teidän kimppuunne, sanoo Herra, Herra.

9 Minun käteni on profeettoja vastaan, jotka petosnäkyjä näkevät ja valhetta ennustelevat. Ei pidä heidän oleman minun kansani yhteydessä, ei heitä kirjoiteta Israelin heimon kirjaan, eivätkä he tule Israelin maahan; ja te tulette tietämään, että minä olen Herra, Herra.

10 Koska he, koska he vievät minun kansani harhaan, sanoen: 'rauha!', vaikka ei rauhaa ole, ja katso, koska he, kun kansa rakentaa seinän, valkaisevat sen kalkilla,

11 niin sano noille kalkilla-valkaisijoille, että se kaatuu. Tulee kaatosade, te syöksytte alas, raekivet, ja sinä pusket puhki, myrskynpuuska,

12 ja katso, seinä kaatuu! Eikö silloin teiltä kysytä: 'Missä on valkaisu, jonka olette sivelleet?'

13 Sentähden, näin sanoo Herra, Herra: Minä kiivaudessani annan myrskynpuuskan puhjeta, kaatosade tulee minun vihastani ja raekivet minun kiivaudestani, niin että tulee loppu.

14 Minä hajotan seinän, jonka te olitte kalkilla valkaisseet, ja syöksen sen maahan, niin että sen perustus paljastuu; niin se kaatuu, ja te saatte siinä lopun. Ja te tulette tietämään, että minä olen Herra.

15 Niin minä panen kiivauteni täytäntöön seinässä ja niissä, jotka sen kalkilla valkaisivat, ja sanon teille: Ei ole enää seinää eikä sen valkaisijoita,

16 Israelin profeettoja, jotka ennustivat Jerusalemista ja näkivät sille rauhan näkyjä, vaikka ei rauhaa ollut; sanoo Herra, Herra.

17 Ja sinä, ihmislapsi, käännä kasvosi kansasi tyttäriä vastaan, jotka joutuvat hurmoksiin oman sydämensä voimasta, ja ennusta heitä vastaan

18 ja sano: Näin sanoo Herra, Herra: Voi niitä naisia, jotka sitovat taikasiteet kaikkiin ranteisiin ja tekevät hunnut kaikenkorkuisiin päihin pyydystääksensä sieluja! Toisia sieluja te pyydystätte minun kansaltani pois, toisten sielujen annatte elää omaksi eduksenne.

19 Ja te häpäisette minut kansani edessä muutamista ohrakourallisista ja leipäpalasista, kun kuoletatte sieluja, joiden ei olisi kuoltava, ja annatte elää sielujen, jotka eivät saisi elää; kun valhettelette minun kansalleni, joka kuuntelee valhetta.

20 Sentähden, näin sanoo Herra, Herra: Minä käyn käsiksi teidän taikasiteisiinne, joilla olette pyydystäneet sieluja niinkuin lintuja, ja revin ne teidän käsivarsistanne ja lasken ne sielut irti-sielut, jotka te olette pyydystäneet-niinkuin linnut.

21 Ja minä revin teidän huntunne ja pelastan kansani teidän käsistänne, niin etteivät he enää joudu teidän kätenne saaliiksi; ja te tulette tietämään, että minä olen Herra.

22 Koska olette valheella murehduttaneet vanhurskaan sydämen, vaikka minä en tahtonut häntä murehduttaa, ja olette vahvistaneet jumalattoman käsiä, ettei hän kääntyisi pahalta tieltänsä ja saisi elää,

23 sentähden ette enää saa petosnäkyjä nähdä ettekä ennustella ennustelujanne, vaan minä pelastan kansani teidän käsistänne; ja te tulette tietämään, että minä olen Herra."

48. Because a person’s life varies in accordance with his state, therefore by spirit is meant the varying life’s affection in a person. For example:

1. The life of wisdom:

(Bezalel was filled) with the spirit of wisdom, understanding, and knowledge.... (Exodus 31:3).

You shall speak to all the wise of heart, whom I have filled with the spirit of wisdom.... (Exodus 28:3)

Joshua was filled with the spirit of wisdom (Deuteronomy 34:9).

Nebuchadnezzar said of Daniel that an excellent spirit, of knowledge, understanding and wisdom was found in him (Daniel 5:12, 14).

The erring in spirit will know understanding.... (Isaiah 29:24)

[2] 2. The arousal of life:

Jehovah has stirred up the spirit of the kings of the Medes. (Jeremiah 51:11)

Jehovah stirred up the spirit of Zerubbabel...and the spirit of all the remnant of the people. (Haggai 1:14)

...I am putting (into the king of Assyria) a spirit..., that he may hear a rumor and return to his own land. (Isaiah 37:7)

...Jehovah...hardened (the) spirit (of the king of Sihon).... (Deuteronomy 2:30)

What has come up upon your spirit shall never be.... (Ezekiel 20:32)

[3] 3. Liberty of life: The four creatures, which were cherubim, seen by the prophet went “wherever they had a spirit to go” (Ezekiel 1:12, 20).

[4] 4. Life in a state of fear, distress, and anger:

...that every heart may melt, and all hands be feeble, and every spirit shrink.... (Ezekiel 21:7)

...my spirit was faint within me, my heart within me is stunned.... (Psalms 143:4, cf. 142:3)

My spirit has been consumed! (Psalms 143:7)

As for me, Daniel, my spirit grieved.... (Daniel 7:15)

(Pharaoh’s) spirit was troubled. (Genesis 41:8)

(Nebuchadnezzar said,) “...my spirit is troubled....” (Daniel 2:3)

I went bitterly in the wrath of my spirit. (Ezekiel 3:14)

[5] 5. Life in a state of various evil affections:

“...provided there is no deceit in his spirit.” (Psalms 32:2)

Jehovah has mingled a spirit of perversity in her midst. (Isaiah 19:14)

...said (He)...to the foolish prophets, who follow their own spirit.... (Ezekiel 13:3)

The prophet is a fool, the man of the spirit is insane. (Hosea 9:7)

Be observant by your spirit, and do not deal treacherously. (Malachi 2:16)

...the spirit of harlotry has caused them to stray.... (Hosea 4:12)

...a spirit of harlotry is in their midst.... (Hosea 5:4)

When a spirit of jealousy comes upon him.... (Numbers 5:14)

...a man who is a wanderer in spirit, and he prattles falsehood.... (Micah 2:11)

...a generation...whose spirit was not steadfast with God. (Psalms 78:8)

...poured out on (them) a spirit of drowsiness.... (Isaiah 29:10)

Conceive chaff, bring forth stubble; as for your spirit, fire shall shall devour you. (Isaiah 33:11)

[6] 6. Hellish life:

I will...cause...the unclean spirit to depart from the land. (Zechariah 13:2)

When an unclean spirit goes out of a man, he goes through dry places.... And then he...attaches to himself seven worse spirits than himself, and they enter and dwell there. (Matthew 12:43-45)

...Babylon...has become a dwelling place of...a foul spirit.... (Revelation 18:2)

[7] 7. In addition, the spirits of hell themselves who torment mankind: Matthew 8:16, 10:1, 12:43-45; Mark 1:23-27, 9:17-29; Luke 4:33, 36, 6:17-18, 7:21, 8:2, 29, 9:39, 42, 55, 11:24-26, 13:11; Revelation 13:15, 16:13-14.

Numbers 5

Studie

   

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 "Command the children of Israel that they put out of the camp every leper, and everyone who has an issue, and whoever is unclean by the dead.

3 Both you shall put male and female outside of the camp; that they not defile their camp, in the midst of which I dwell."

4 The children of Israel did so, and put them out outside of the camp; as Yahweh spoke to Moses, so did the children of Israel.

5 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

6 "Speak to the children of Israel: 'When a man or woman commits any sin that men commit, so as to trespass against Yahweh, and that soul is guilty;

7 then he shall confess his sin which he has done, and he shall make restitution for his guilt in full, and add to it the fifth part of it, and give it to him in respect of whom he has been guilty.

8 But if the man has no kinsman to whom restitution may be made for the guilt, the restitution for guilt which is made to Yahweh shall be the priest's; besides the ram of the atonement, by which atonement shall be made for him.

9 Every heave offering of all the holy things of the children of Israel, which they present to the priest, shall be his.

10 Every man's holy things shall be his: whatever any man gives the priest, it shall be his.'"

11 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

12 "Speak to the children of Israel, and tell them: 'If any man's wife goes astray, and is unfaithful to him,

13 and a man lies with her carnally, and it is hidden from the eyes of her husband, and is kept close, and she is defiled, and there is no witness against her, and she isn't taken in the act;

14 and the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she is defiled: or if the spirit of jealousy comes on him, and he is jealous of his wife, and she isn't defiled:

15 then the man shall bring his wife to the priest, and shall bring her offering for her: the tenth part of an ephah of barley meal. He shall pour no oil on it, nor put frankincense on it, for it is a meal offering of jealousy, a meal offering of memorial, bringing iniquity to memory.

16 The priest shall bring her near, and set her before Yahweh;

17 and the priest shall take holy water in an earthen vessel; and of the dust that is on the floor of the tabernacle the priest shall take, and put it into the water.

18 The priest shall set the woman before Yahweh, and let the hair of the woman's head go loose, and put the meal offering of memorial in her hands, which is the meal offering of jealousy. The priest shall have in his hand the water of bitterness that brings a curse.

19 The priest shall cause her to swear, and shall tell the woman, "If no man has lain with you, and if you haven't gone aside to uncleanness, being under your husband, be free from this water of bitterness that brings a curse.

20 But if you have gone astray, being under your husband, and if you are defiled, and some man has lain with you besides your husband:"

21 then the priest shall cause the woman to swear with the oath of cursing, and the priest shall tell the woman, "Yahweh make you a curse and an oath among your people, when Yahweh allows your thigh to fall away, and your body to swell;

22 and this water that brings a curse will go into your bowels, and make your body swell, and your thigh fall away." The woman shall say, "Amen, Amen."

23 "'The priest shall write these curses in a book, and he shall blot them out into the water of bitterness.

24 He shall make the woman drink the water of bitterness that causes the curse; and the water that causes the curse shall enter into her and become bitter.

25 The priest shall take the meal offering of jealousy out of the woman's hand, and shall wave the meal offering before Yahweh, and bring it to the altar.

26 The priest shall take a handful of the meal offering, as its memorial, and burn it on the altar, and afterward shall make the woman drink the water.

27 When he has made her drink the water, then it shall happen, if she is defiled, and has committed a trespass against her husband, that the water that causes the curse will enter into her and become bitter, and her body will swell, and her thigh will fall away: and the woman will be a curse among her people.

28 If the woman isn't defiled, but is clean; then she shall be free, and shall conceive seed.

29 "'This is the law of jealousy, when a wife, being under her husband, goes astray, and is defiled;

30 or when the spirit of jealousy comes on a man, and he is jealous of his wife; then he shall set the woman before Yahweh, and the priest shall execute on her all this law.

31 The man shall be free from iniquity, and that woman shall bear her iniquity.'"
