4 Mose 27

Studie

   

1 Und es nahten herzu die Töchter Zelophchads, des Sohnes Hephers, des Sohnes Gileads, des Sohnes Makirs, des Sohnes Manasses, von den Geschlechtern Manasses, des Sohnes Josephs; und dies waren die Namen seiner Töchter: Machla, Noa und Chogla und Milka und Tirza.

2 Und sie traten vor Mose und vor Eleasar, den Priester, und vor die Fürsten und die ganze Gemeinde an den Eingang des Zeltes der Zusammenkunft und sprachen:

3 Unser Vater ist in der Wüste gestorben; er war aber nicht unter der otte derer, die sich in der otte Korahs wider Jehova zusammenrotteten, sondern er ist in seiner Sünde (d. h. wie alle anderen) gestorben; und er hatte keine Söhne.

4 Warum soll der Name unseres Vaters abgeschnitten werden aus der Mitte seines Geschlechts, weil er keinen Sohn hat? Gib uns ein Eigentum unter den Brüdern unseres Vaters!

5 Und Mose brachte ihre echtssache vor Jehova.

6 Und Jehova redete zu Mose und sprach:

7 Die Töchter Zelophchads reden recht; du sollst ihnen sicherlich ein Erbbesitztum unter den Brüdern ihres Vaters geben, und sollst das Erbteil ihres Vaters auf sie übergehen lassen.

8 Und zu den Kindern Israel sollst du reden und sprechen: Wenn ein Mann stirbt und keinen Sohn hat, so sollt ihr sein Erbteil auf seine Tochter übergehen lassen.

9 Und wenn er keine Tochter hat, so sollt ihr sein Erbteil seinen Brüdern geben.

10 Und wenn er keine Brüder hat, so sollt ihr sein Erbteil den Brüdern seines Vaters geben.

11 Und wenn sein Vater keine Brüder hat, so sollt ihr sein Erbteil seinem Blutsverwandten geben, dem ihm am nächsten stehenden aus seinem Geschlecht, daß er es erbe. -Und das soll den Kindern Israel zu einer echtssatzung sein, so wie Jehova dem Mose geboten hat.

12 Und Jehova sprach zu Mose: Steige auf dieses Gebirge Abarim und sieh das Land, das ich den Kindern Israel gegeben habe.

13 Und hast du es gesehen, so wirst auch du zu deinen Völkern versammelt werden, so wie dein Bruder Aaron versammelt worden ist;

14 weil ihr in der Wüste Zin, beim Hadern der Gemeinde, widerspenstig gewesen seid gegen meinen Befehl, mich durch das Wasser vor ihren Augen zu heiligen. (Das ist das Haderwasser von Kades in der Wüste Zin.)

15 Und Mose redete zu Jehova und sprach:

16 Es bestelle Jehova, der Gott der Geister alles Fleisches, einen Mann über die Gemeinde,

17 der vor ihnen her aus- und einziehe, und der sie aus- und einführe; damit die Gemeinde Jehovas nicht sei wie Schafe, die keinen Hirten haben.

18 Und Jehova sprach zu Mose: Nimm dir Josua, den Sohn Nuns, einen Mann, in dem der Geist ist, und lege deine Hand auf ihn;

19 und stelle ihn vor Eleasar, den Priester, und vor die ganze Gemeinde, und gib ihm Befehl vor ihren Augen,

20 und lege von deiner Würde (Eig. Hoheit) auf ihn, damit die ganze Gemeinde der Kinder Israel ihm gehorche.

21 Und er soll vor Eleasar, den Priester, treten, und der soll für ihn das Urteil der Urim vor Jehova befragen: nach seinem Befehle sollen sie ausziehen, und nach seinem Befehle sollen sie einziehen, er und alle Kinder Israel mit ihm, ja, die ganze Gemeinde.

22 Und Mose tat, so wie Jehova ihm geboten hatte, und nahm Josua und stellte ihn vor Eleasar, den Priester, und vor die ganze Gemeinde,

23 und er legte seine Hände auf ihn und gab ihm Befehl, so wie Jehova durch Mose geredet hatte.

Gather

  

To gather, as in Genesis 6:21, refers to things gathered together in the memory of man. It also implies that good things and truths should be gathered together in man before he is regenerated. To gather together in a place to battle, as in Revelation 16:1, signifies the start of combat against truths in defense of falsities. The ancients were accustomed to say that, when anyone died, that he was gathered to his fathers, or to his people, and they understood that he actually came to his parents, his relations and kinsfolk in another life. 'To be gathered to his fathers' means that a person would join the spiritual community sharing similar good loves. 'To be gathered to his people' means that a person would join the spiritual community that holds same true ideas.

Genesis 25

Studie

   

1 Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.

2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.

3 Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.

4 The sons of Midian: Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

5 Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac,

6 but to the sons of Abraham's concubines, Abraham gave gifts. He sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, to the east country.

7 These are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived: one hundred seventy-five years.

8 Abraham gave up the spirit, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.

9 Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron, the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre,

10 the field which Abraham purchased of the children of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.

11 It happened after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.

12 Now this is the history of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore to Abraham.

13 These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to the order of their birth: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,

15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments: twelve princes, according to their nations.

17 These are the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred thirty-seven years. He gave up the spirit and died, and was gathered to his people.

18 They lived from Havilah to Shur that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria. He lived opposite all his relatives.

19 This is the history of the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.

20 Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian, to be his wife.

21 Isaac entreated Yahweh for his wife, because she was barren. Yahweh was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

22 The children struggled together within her. She said, "If it be so, why do I live?" She went to inquire of Yahweh.

23 Yahweh said to her, "Two nations are in your womb. Two peoples will be separated from your body. The one people will be stronger than the other people. The elder will serve the younger."

24 When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

25 The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.

26 After that, his brother came out, and his hand had hold on Esau's heel. He was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

27 The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.

28 Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.

29 Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.

30 Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom.

31 Jacob said, "First, sell me your birthright."

32 Esau said, "Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?"

33 Jacob said, "Swear to me first." He swore to him. He sold his birthright to Jacob.

34 Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
