45 Darum höret den Ratschluß Jehovas, welchen er über Babel beschlossen hat, und seine Gedanken, die er denkt über das Land der Chaldäer: Wahrlich, man wird sie fortschleppen, die Geringen der Herde; wahrlich, die Trift wird sich über sie entsetzen!

5045. 'Into Joseph's hand all the bound who were in the prison-house' means received from Him over all falsities, that is to say, the truth governing in a state of temptations was received from Him. This is clear from the meaning of 'giving into Joseph's hand' as placing under its power and control ('the hand' means power and control, 5008, thus that which is received from Him - for anything done by the use of His power is something done by Him - while 'Joseph' means the Lord in the internal sense, as has often been shown above); and from the meaning of 'the bound in the prison-house' as falsities, dealt with above in 5037, 5038. Thus 'the governor of the prison-house gave into Joseph's hand all the bound who were in the prison-house' means the truth governing in the state of temptations that was received from Him and had power over all falsities, that is, He Himself was the source of the truth by means of which He governed falsities in the state of temptations. Here and in what follows at the end of this present chapter the subject in the internal sense is the Lord and the government executed by Him in a state of temptations. That is, it describes how He overcame, by His own power, the hells which were steeped in evils and falsities, and which were constantly pouring out evils and falsities onto the human race. For details about the Lord overcoming them and bringing them into subjection to Himself by His own power, thereby also glorifying the Human within Him or making it Divine, see 1616, 1749, 1755, 1813, 1904, 1914, 1921, 1935, 2025, 2026, 2083, 2159, 2574, 2786, 2795, 3036, 3381, 4075, 4286, 5005. This is clear from many places in the Word, including the following in John,

I lay down My life, 1 so that I may receive it again. No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself; I have power to lay it down and I have power to receive it again. John 10:17-18.

The passion of the Cross was the last temptation, by which He fully glorified the Human within Him, that is, made it Divine, as is also evident from many places in the Word, such as John 13:31-32; 17:1, 5; Luke 24:26.

#58 Seeing the Horses and Chariots of Fire (The Meaning of Elijah and Elisha)

Napsal(a) Jonathan S. Rose

Title: Seeing the Horses and Chariots of Fire

Topic: Word

Summary: An exploration of the meaning of horses and chariots in Scripture, showing that many such statements cannot be taken literally. In fact, horses mean an understanding of the Bible and a chariot means a body of teaching drawn from the Word. Living what the Word teaches about repentance is riding a white horse.
