1 Και οταν εισελθης εις την γην, την οποιαν Κυριος ο Θεος σου διδει εις σε κληρονομιαν, και κατακληρονομησης αυτην και κατοικησης εν αυτη,

2 τοτε θελεις λαβει απο της απαρχης παντων των καρπων της γης, τους οποιους συναξης εκ της γης σου, την οποιαν Κυριος ο Θεος σου διδει εις σε, και θελεις βαλει αυτην εις καλαθιον, και θελεις υπαγει εις τον τοπον, οντινα εκλεξη Κυριος ο Θεος σου δια να κατοικιση εκει το ονομα αυτου.

3 Και θελεις υπαγει προς τον ιερεα, τον οντα κατ' εκεινας τας ημερας, και θελεις ειπει προς αυτον, Αναγγελλω σημερον προς Κυριον τον Θεον σου, οτι εισηλθον εις την γην, την οποιαν ο Κυριος ωμοσε προς τους πατερας ημων να δωση εις ημας.

4 Και ο ιερευς θελει λαβει το καλαθιον εκ της χειρος σου, και θελει καταθεσει αυτο ενωπιον του θυσιαστηριου Κυριου του Θεου σου.

5 Και θελεις λαλησει και ειπει ενωπιον Κυριου του Θεου σου, Συριος περιπλανωμενος ητο ο πατηρ μου, και κατεβη εις Αιγυπτον, και παροικησας εκει μετα ολιγων ανθρωπων κατεσταθη εκει εθνος μεγα, δυνατον και πολυαριθμον·

6 και οι Αιγυπτιοι εταλαιπωρησαν ημας και κατεθλιψαν ημας και επεβαλον εφ' ημας σκληραν δουλειαν·

7 και ανεβοησαμεν προς Κυριον τον Θεον των πατερων ημων, και εισηκουσεν ο Κυριος της φωνης ημων, και επεβλεψεν επι την θλιψιν ημων και επι τον μοχθον ημων και επι την καταδυναστευσιν ημων·

8 και εξηγαγεν ημας ο Κυριος εξ Αιγυπτου εν χειρι κραταια και εν βραχιονι εξηπλωμενω, και με τερατα μεγαλα και με σημεια και με θαυματα·

9 και εισηγαγεν ημας εις τον τοπον τουτον, και εδωκεν εις ημας την γην ταυτην, γην ρεουσαν γαλα και μελι·

10 και τωρα, ιδου, εφερα τας απαρχας των καρπων της γης, την οποιαν συ, Κυριε εδωκας εις εμε. Και θελεις καταθεσει αυτας ενωπιον Κυριου του Θεου σου, και θελεις προσκυνησει ενωπιον Κυριου του Θεου σου.

11 Και θελεις ευφρανθη εις παντα τα αγαθα, τα οποια Κυριος ο Θεος σου εδωκεν εις σε και εις τον οικον σου, συ και ο Λευιτης και ο ξενος ο εν μεσω σου.

12 Αφου τελειωσης να δεκατιζης παντα τα δεκατα των γεννηματων σου εις το τριτον ετος, το ετος της δεκατειας, και δωσης αυτα εις τον Λευιτην, εις τον ξενον, εις τον ορφανον και εις την χηραν, και φαγωσιν εντος των πυλων σου και χορτασθωσι,

13 τοτε θελεις ειπει ενωπιον Κυριου του Θεου σου, Εξεκαθαρισα εκ της οικιας μου τα αφιερωματα, και προσετι εδωκα αυτα εις τον Λευιτην και εις τον ξενον, εις τον ορφανον και εις την χηραν, κατα παντα τα προσταγματα σου, τα οποια προσεταξας εις εμε· δεν παρεβην τας εντολας σου ουδε ελησμονησα αυτας·

14 δεν εφαγον εξ αυτων εις το πενθος μου, ουτε ελαβον εκ τουτων δια ακαθαρτον χρησιν, ουτε εδωκα εξ αυτων δια νεκρον· υπηκουσα εις την φωνην Κυριου του Θεου μου, εκαμον κατα παντα οσα προσεταξας εις εμε·

15 επιβλεψον εκ του οικου σου του αγιου, εκ του ουρανου, και ευλογησον τον λαον σου τον Ισραηλ, και την γην την οποιαν εδωκας εις ημας, καθως ωμοσας προς τους πατερας ημων, γην ρεουσαν γαλα και μελι.

16 Σημερον προσεταξεν εις σε Κυριος ο Θεος σου να εκτελης τα διαταγματα ταυτα και τας κρισεις· δια τουτο θελεις φυλαττει και θελεις εκτελει αυτα εξ ολης της καρδιας σου και εξ ολης της ψυχης σου.

17 Εξελεξας τον Κυριον σημερον να ηναι Θεος σου, και να περιπατης εις τας οδους αυτου και να φυλαττης τα διαταγματα αυτου και τας εντολας αυτου και τας κρισεις αυτου, και να υπακουης εις την φωνην αυτου·

18 και ο Κυριος σοι ειπε σημερον να ησαι εις αυτον λαος εκλεκτος, καθως ελαλησε προς σε, και να φυλαττης πασας τας εντολας αυτου·

19 και να σε καταστηση υψηλον υπερανω παντων των εθνων τα οποια εκαμεν, εις καυχημα και εις ονομα και εις δοξαν· και να ησαι λαος αγιος εις Κυριον τον Θεον σου, καθως ελαλησε.

505. Then those from the peoples, tribes, tongues, and nations will see their bodies for three and a half days. (11:9) This symbolizes all those who were or who would be caught up in doctrinal falsities and the resulting evil practices at the end of the church still existing, when they have heard and later hear about these two essential elements at the beginning of the New Church, namely, an acknowledgment of the Lord and of works in accordance with the Ten Commandments.

Peoples, tribes, tongues, and nations mean all those of the Protestant Reformed who were or who would be caught up in doctrinal falsities and the resulting evil practices owing to their faith alone. Peoples symbolize people caught up in doctrinal falsities (no. 483), tribes the falsities and evils in the church (no. 349), tongues a confession and acceptance of these (no. 483), and nations people caught up in evil practices (no. 483). Therefore the four together symbolize all those individually and collectively who were or who would be of such a character, thus all those who were in that great city and all those like them who would later come from the world.

The bodies that they would see, those of the two witnesses, symbolize the two essential elements of the New Church, as said in no. 501 above. That they would see them means, symbolically, when they have heard and later hear about them, since it is bodies that are said to be seen, and the two essential elements that are heard.

Three and a half days mean, symbolically, at the end and then the beginning, namely, at the end of the church still existing and the beginning of a new one.

Putting all these things together now into a single meaning, it is apparent that "those from the peoples, tribes, tongues, and nations will see their bodies for three and a half days" has, in the spiritual sense, the symbolic meaning stated above.

Three and a half days mean, symbolically, at the end and then the beginning because a day symbolizes a state, the number three symbolizes something completed to the end, and a half symbolizes a new beginning. For three and half days have the same symbolic meaning as a week, six days of which symbolize something completed to the end, and the seventh day something holy. That is because the number three and a half is one half of seven, and seven days constitute a week; and a number doubled or divided has the same symbolic meaning.

[2] That the number three symbolizes something completed, thus something completed to the end, can be seen from the following accounts in the Word:

That Isaiah was to go naked and barefoot for three years (Isaiah 20:3).

That Jehovah called three times to Samuel, and Samuel ran three times to Eli, and that the third time Eli understood (1 Samuel 3:1-8).

That Elijah stretched himself out three times on the widow's son (1 Kings 17:21).

That Elijah ordered that water be poured on the burnt sacrifice three times (1 Kings 18:34).

That Jesus said that the kingdom of heaven is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal (Matthew 13:33).

That Jesus told Peter he would deny Him three times (Matthew 26:34).

That the Lord asked Peter three times, "Do you love Me?" (John 21:15-17).

That Jonah was in the belly of the whale three days and three nights (Jonah 1:17).

That Jesus said He would destroy the Temple and in three days build it (Matthew 26:61, John 2:19)

That Jesus prayed three times in Gethsemane (Matthew 26:39-44).

That Jesus rose on the third day (Matthew 28:1ff.).

And so on elsewhere, as in Isaiah 16:14; Hosea 6:2; Exodus 3:18; 10:22-23; 19:1, 11, 15-16, 18; Leviticus 19:23-25; Numbers 19:11-22; 31:19-24; Deuteronomy 19:2-4; 26:12; Joshua 1:11; 3:2; 1 Samuel 20:5, 12, 19-20, 35-36, 41; 2 Samuel 24:11-13; Daniel 10:1-3; Mark 12:2, 4-6; Luke 20:12; 13:32-33.

Seven, like three, symbolizes something full and complete, but seven is predicated of holy things, while three is predicated of things not holy.
