1 Samuel 11

Studie

   

1 Und Nahas, der Ammoniter, zog herauf und belagerte Jabes-Gilead. Und alle Männer von Jabes sprachen zu Nahas: Mache einen Bund mit uns, so wollen wir dir dienen.

2 Aber Nahas, der Ammoniter, sprach zu ihnen: Unter dieser Bedingung will ich einen Bund mit euch machen, daß ich euch allen das rechte Auge aussteche und damit eine Schmach auf ganz Israel lege.

3 Und die Ältesten von Jabes sprachen zu ihm: Laß uns sieben Tage, und wir wollen Boten in alle Grenzen Israels senden; und wenn niemand ist, der uns rettet, so wollen wir zu dir hinausgehen.

4 Und die Boten kamen nach Gibea-Saul und redeten diese Worte zu den Ohren des Volkes. Und das ganze Volk erhob seine Stimme und weinte.

5 Und siehe, Saul kam hinter den indern her vom Felde, und Saul sprach: Was ist dem Volke, daß sie weinen? Und sie erzählten ihm die Worte der Männer von Jabes.

6 Da geriet der Geist Gottes über Saul, als er diese Worte hörte, und sein Zorn entbrannte sehr.

7 Und er nahm ein Joch inder und zerstückte sie, und er sandte die Stücke durch Boten in alle Grenzen Israels und ließ sagen: Wer nicht auszieht hinter Saul und hinter Samuel her, dessen indern wird also getan werden! Da fiel der Schrecken Jehovas auf das Volk, und sie zogen aus wie ein Mann.

8 Und er musterte sie zu Besek; und es waren der Kinder Israel 300000, und der Männer von Juda 30000.

9 Und sie sprachen zu den Boten, die gekommen waren: So sollt ihr zu den Männern von Jabes-Gilead sagen: Morgen, wenn die Sonne heiß wird, wird euch ettung werden. Und die Boten kamen und berichteten es den Männern von Jabes, und sie freuten sich.

10 Und die Männer von Jabes sprachen: Morgen werden wir zu euch hinausgehen, und ihr möget uns tun nach allem, was gut ist in euren Augen.

11 Und es geschah am anderen Tage, da stellte Saul das Volk in drei Haufen; und sie kamen mitten in das Lager bei der Morgenwache und schlugen Ammon bis zum Heißwerden des Tages; und die Übriggebliebenen wurden zerstreut, und es blieben unter ihnen nicht zwei beisammen.

12 Da sprach das Volk zu Samuel: Wer ist es, der gesagt hat: Sollte Saul über uns regieren? Gebet die Männer her, daß wir sie töten!

13 Aber Saul sprach: Niemand soll an diesem Tage getötet werden, denn heute hat Jehova ettung geschafft in Israel!

14 Und Samuel sprach zu dem Volke: Kommt laßt uns nach Gilgal gehen und daselbst das Königtum erneuern.

15 Und das ganze Volk zog nach Gilgal, und sie machten daselbst Saul zum König vor Jehova, zu Gilgal; und sie schlachteten daselbst Friedensopfer vor Jehova. Und Saul und alle Männer von Israel freuten sich daselbst gar sehr.

Sun

  

The 'sun' in the Word, when referring to the Lord, signifies His divine love and wisdom. Because the sun represents the Lord, with respect to His divine love wisdom, since ancient times even to the present day, worship is done and temples are built facing the rising sun. The sun signifies celestial and spiritual love and also the Lord regarding His divine love, and so the good of love from Him. In the opposite sense, it signifies a denial of the Lord's divinity, and so adulteration of the good of love.

In Genesis 15:12, 19:23, this signifies the time and state before consummation; for the sun signifies the Lord, and the celestial things of love and charity; so its setting represents the last time of the church. Its rising signifies a coming of the Lord, and the first period of a new church. (Arcana Coelestia 1837, 1859)

In Jeremiah 8:1, this signifies self-love and its lusts. (Arcana Coelestia 2441)

In Revelation 12:1, this signifies love. (Arcana Coelestia 253, Arcana Coelestia 3272[2])

Sun signifies the good of love. (Arcana Coelestia 4918[3]

Jeremiah 8

Studie

   

1 At that time, says Yahweh, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves;

2 and they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the army of the sky, which they have loved, and which they have served, and after which they have walked, and which they have sought, and which they have worshiped: they shall not be gathered, nor be buried, they shall be for dung on the surface of the earth.

3 Death shall be chosen rather than life by all the residue that remain of this evil family, that remain in all the places where I have driven them, says Yahweh of Armies.

4 Moreover you shall tell them, Thus says Yahweh: Shall men fall, and not rise up again? Shall one turn away, and not return?

5 Why then is this people of Jerusalem slidden back by a perpetual backsliding? they hold fast deceit, they refuse to return.

6 I listened and heard, but they didn't speak aright: no man repents him of his wickedness, saying, What have I done? everyone turns to his course, as a horse that rushes headlong in the battle.

7 Yes, the stork in the sky knows her appointed times; and the turtledove and the swallow and the crane observe the time of their coming; but my people don't know Yahweh's law.

8 How do you say, We are wise, and the law of Yahweh is with us? But, behold, the false pen of the scribes has worked falsely.

9 The wise men are disappointed, they are dismayed and taken: behold, they have rejected the word of Yahweh; and what kind of wisdom is in them?

10 Therefore will I give their wives to others, and their fields to those who shall possess them: for everyone from the least even to the greatest is given to covetousness; from the prophet even to the priest every one deals falsely.

11 They have healed the hurt of the daughter of my people slightly, saying, Peace, Peace; when there is no Peace.

12 Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush: therefore shall they fall among those who fall; in the time of their visitation they shall be cast down, says Yahweh.

13 I will utterly consume them, says Yahweh: no grapes shall be on the vine, nor figs on the fig tree, and the leaf shall fade; and [the things that] I have given them shall pass away from them.

14 Why do we sit still? Assemble yourselves, and let us enter into the fortified cities, and let us be silent there; for Yahweh our God has put us to silence, and given us water of gall to drink, because we have sinned against Yahweh.

15 We looked for peace, but no good came; [and] for a time of healing, and behold, dismay!

16 The snorting of his horses is heard from Dan: at the sound of the neighing of his strong ones the whole land trembles; for they are come, and have devoured the land and all that is in it; the city and those who dwell therein.

17 For, behold, I will send serpents, adders, among you, which will not be charmed; and they shall bite you, says Yahweh.

18 Oh that I could comfort myself against sorrow! My heart is faint within me.

19 Behold, the voice of the cry of the daughter of my people from a land that is very far off: isn't Yahweh in Zion? Isn't her King in her? Why have they provoked me to anger with their engraved images, and with foreign vanities?

20 The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.

21 For the hurt of the daughter of my people am I hurt: I mourn; dismay has taken hold on me.

22 Is there no balm in Gilead? is there no physician there? why then isn't the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
