Exode 20

Studie

   

1 Alors Dieu prononça toutes ces paroles, disant :

2 Je suis l'Eternel ton Dieu, qui t'ai retiré du pays d'Egypte, de la maison de servitude.

3 Tu n'auras point d'autres dieux devant ma face.

4 Tu ne te feras point d'image taillée, ni aucune ressemblance des choses qui sont là-haut aux cieux, ni ici-bas sur la terre, ni dans les eaux sous la terre.

5 Tu ne te prosterneras point devant elles, et ne les serviras point; car je suis l'Eternel ton Dieu, le [Dieu] Fort, qui est jaloux, punissant l'iniquité des pères sur les enfants, jusqu'à la troisième et à la quatrième génération de ceux qui me haïssent;

6 Et faisant miséricorde en mille [générations] à ceux qui m'aiment, et qui gardent mes commandements.

7 Tu ne prendras point le Nom de l'Eternel ton Dieu en vain; car l'Eternel ne tiendra point pour innocent, celui qui aura pris son Nom en vain.

8 Souviens-toi du jour du repos, pour le sanctifier.

9 Tu travailleras six jours, et tu feras toute ton œuvre;

10 Mais le septième jour est le repos de l'Eternel ton Dieu. Tu ne feras aucune œuvre en ce [jour-là], ni toi, ni ton fils, ni ta fille, ni ton serviteur, ni ta servante, ni ton bétail, ni ton étranger qui est dans tes portes.

11 Car l'Eternel a fait en six jours les cieux, la terre, la mer, et tout ce qui est en eux, et s'est reposé le septième jour; c'est pourquoi l'Eternel a béni le jour du repos, et l'a sanctifié.

12 Honore ton père et ta mère, afin que tes jours soient prolongés sur la terre que l'Eternel ton Dieu te donne.

13 Tu ne tueras point.

14 Tu ne paillarderas point.

15 Tu ne déroberas point.

16 Tu ne diras point faux Témoignage contre ton prochain.

17 Tu ne convoiteras point la maison de ton prochain; tu ne convoiteras point la femme de ton prochain, ni son serviteur, ni sa servante, ni son bœuf, ni son âne, ni aucune chose qui soit à ton prochain.

18 Or tout le peuple apercevait les tonnerres, les éclairs, le son du cor, et la montagne fumante; et le peuple voyant cela tremblait, et se tenait loin.

19 Et ils dirent à Moïse : parle, toi, avec nous, et nous écouterons; mais que Dieu ne parle point avec nous, de peur que nous ne mourions.

20 Et Moïse dit au peuple : ne craignez point; car Dieu est venu pour vous éprouver, et afin que sa crainte soit devant vous, et que vous ne péchiez point.

21 Le peuple donc se tint loin, mais Moïse s'approcha de l'obscurité dans laquelle Dieu était.

22 Et l'Eternel dit à Moïse : tu diras ainsi aux enfants d'Israël : vous avez vu que je vous ai parlé des cieux :

23 Vous ne vous ferez point avec moi de Dieux d'argent, ni de Dieux d'or.

24 Tu me feras un autel de terre, sur lequel tu sacrifieras tes holocaustes, et tes oblations de prospérités, ton menu et ton gros bétail; en quelque lieu que ce soit que je mettrai la mémoire de mon Nom, je viendrai là à toi, et je te bénirai.

25 Que si tu me fais un autel de pierres, ne les taille point; car si tu fais passer le fer dessus, tu le souilleras.

26 Et tu ne monteras point à mon autel par des degrés, de peur que ta nudité ne soit découverte en y [montant].

Name

  

According to Swedenborg, a person's name in the Bible represents his or her entire spiritual nature, their whole state of love (good or evil) and thought (from heavenly wisdom to infernal insanity). This is why the name of the Lord is so important; it represents and embodies His perfect love and perfect wisdom, which is everything that we should worship and follow. It's easy to see that names are important in the Bible. Jehovah changed Abram and Sarai to Abraham and Sarah, changed Jacob to Israel and included in the Ten Commandments the order that believers "shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain." In the New Testament, Zacharias was told to name John the Baptist "John," and both Joseph (Matthew 1:21) and Mary (Luke 1:31) were told to name Jesus "Jesus." Jesus himself renamed Simon as Peter, and included the phrase "hallowed be thy name" in the Lord's prayer.

Matthew 1

Studie

1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

2 Abraham became the father of Isaac. Isaac became the father of Jacob. Jacob became the father of Judah and his brothers.

3 Judah became the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar. Perez became the father of Hezron. Hezron became the father of Ram.

4 Ram became the father of Amminadab. Amminadab became the father of Nahshon. Nahshon became the father of Salmon.

5 Salmon became the father of Boaz by Rahab. Boaz became the father of Obed by Ruth. Obed became the father of Jesse.

6 Jesse became the father of King David. David became the father of Solomon by her who had been the wife of Uriah.

7 Solomon became the father of Rehoboam. Rehoboam became the father of Abijah. Abijah became the father of Asa.

8 Asa became the father of Jehoshaphat. Jehoshaphat became the father of Joram. Joram became the father of Uzziah.

9 Uzziah became the father of Jotham. Jotham became the father of Ahaz. Ahaz became the father of Hezekiah.

10 Hezekiah became the father of Manasseh. Manasseh became the father of Amon. Amon became the father of Josiah.

11 Josiah became the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the exile to Babylon.

12 After the exile to Babylon, Jechoniah became the father of Shealtiel. Shealtiel became the father of Zerubbabel.

13 Zerubbabel became the father of Abiud. Abiud became the father of Eliakim. Eliakim became the father of Azor.

14 Azor became the father of Sadoc. Sadoc became the father of Achim. Achim became the father of Eliud.

15 Eliud became the father of Eleazar. Eleazar became the father of Matthan. Matthan became the father of Jacob.

16 Jacob became the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, from whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.

17 So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; from David to the exile to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the carrying away to Babylon to the Christ, fourteen generations.

18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this; for after his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit.

19 Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.

20 But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, don't be afraid to take to yourself Mary, your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.

21 She shall bring forth a son. You shall call his name Jesus, for it is he who shall save his people from their sins."

22 Now all this has happened, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,

23 "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son. They shall call his name Immanuel;" which is, being interpreted, "God with us."

24 Joseph arose from his sleep, and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and took his wife to himself;

25 and didn't know her sexually until she had brought forth her firstborn son. He named him Jesus.
