4 Mose 25

Studie

   

1 Und Israel wohnte in Sittim. Und das Volk hub an zu huren mit der Moabiter Töchtern,

2 welche luden das Volk zum Opfer ihrer Götter. Und das Volk und betete ihre Götter an.

3 Und Israel hängete sich an den Baal Peor. Da ergrimmete des HERRN Zorn über Israel,

4 und sprach zu Mose: Nimm alle Obersten des Volks und hänge sie dem HERRN an die Sonne, auf daß der grimmige Zorn des HERRN von Israel gewandt werde.

5 Und Mose sprach zu den Richtern Israels: Erwürge ein jeglicher seine Leute, die sich an den Baal-Peor gehänget haben.

6 Und siehe, ein Mann aus den Kindern Israel kam und brachte unter seine Brüder eine Midianitin und ließ Mose zusehen und die ganze Gemeine der Kinder Israel, die da weineten vor der Tür der Hütte des Stifts.

7 Da das sah der Sohn Eleasars, des Sohns Aarons, des Priesters, stund er auf aus der Gemeine und nahm einen Spieß in seine Hand,

8 und ging dem israelitischen Manne nach hinein in den Hurenwinkel und durchstach sie beide, den israelitischen Mann und das Weib, durch ihren Bauch. Da hörete die Plage auf von den Kindern Israel.

9 Und es wurden getötet in der Plage vierundzwanzigtausend.

10 Und der HERR redete mit Mose und sprach:

11 Pinehas, der Sohn Eleasars, des Sohns Aarons, des Priesters, hat meinen Grimm von den Kindern Israel gewendet durch seinen Eifer um mich, daß ich nicht in meinem Eifer die Kinder Israel vertilgete.

12 Darum sage: Siehe, ich gebe ihm meinen Bund des Friedens;

13 und er soll haben, und sein Same nach ihm, den Bund eines ewigen Priestertums, darum daß er für seinen Gott geeifert und die Kinder Israel versöhnet hat.

14 Der israelitische Mann aber, der erschlagen ward mit der Midianitin, hieß Simri, der Sohn Salus, ein Fürst im Hause des Vaters der Simeoniter.

15 Das midianitische Weib, das auch erschlagen ward, hieß Kasbi, eine Tochter Zurs, der ein Fürst war eines Geschlechts unter den Midianitern.

16 Und der HERR redete mit Mose und sprach:

17 Tut den Midianitern Schaden und schlaget sie;

18 denn sie haben euch Schaden getan mit ihrer List, die sie euch gestellet haben durch den Peor und durch ihre Schwester Kasbi, die Tochter des Fürsten der Midianiter, die erschlagen ist am Tage der Plage um des Peors willen, und die Plage danach kam.

/ 1232  
  

142. (Verse 15) So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate. That this signifies those who separate good from truth, or charity from faith, which is contrary to Divine order, is evident from what was said and shown above, n. 107, where similar words occur. To which must be added, that those who separate truth from good, or faith from charity, turn away from themselves all influx of heaven into the good works which they do, in consequence of which their good works are not good; for heaven flows in, that is the Lord, through heaven, into the good of man's love, therefore he who casts out the good of charity from the doctrine of the church, and instead of it receives only those things which are said to belong to faith, is excluded from heaven, the truths pertaining to him not having life. And it is the life of truth, which is good, that conjoins, but not truth without life, or faith without charity. (But more may be seen concerning these things in The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem, where it treats concerning charity, n. 84-107, and concerning faith, n. 108-122.)

Numbers 25

Studie

   

1 Israel stayed in Shittim; and the people began to play the prostitute with the daughters of Moab:

2 for they called the people to the sacrifices of their gods; and the people ate, and bowed down to their gods.

3 Israel joined himself to Baal Peor: and the anger of Yahweh was kindled against Israel.

4 Yahweh said to Moses, "Take all the chiefs of the people, and hang them up to Yahweh before the sun, that the fierce anger of Yahweh may turn away from Israel."

5 Moses said to the judges of Israel, "Everyone kill his men who have joined themselves to Baal Peor."

6 Behold, one of the children of Israel came and brought to his brothers a Midianite woman in the sight of Moses, and in the sight of all the congregation of the children of Israel, while they were weeping at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

7 When Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose up from the midst of the congregation, and took a spear in his hand;

8 and he went after the man of Israel into the pavilion, and thrust both of them through, the man of Israel, and the woman through her body. So the plague was stayed from the children of Israel.

9 Those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.

10 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

11 "Phinehas, the son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned my wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was jealous with my jealousy among them, so that I didn't consume the children of Israel in my jealousy.

12 Therefore say, 'Behold, I give to him my covenant of peace:

13 and it shall be to him, and to his seed after him, the covenant of an everlasting priesthood; because he was jealous for his God, and made atonement for the children of Israel.'"

14 Now the name of the man of Israel that was slain, who was slain with the Midianite woman, was Zimri, the son of Salu, a prince of a fathers' house among the Simeonites.

15 The name of the Midianite woman who was slain was Cozbi, the daughter of Zur; he was head of the people of a fathers' house in Midian.

16 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

17 "Harass the Midianites, and strike them;

18 for they harassed you with their wiles, with which they have deceived you in the matter of Peor, and in the matter of Cozbi, the daughter of the prince of Midian, their sister, who was slain on the day of the plague in the matter of Peor."
