Εξοδος πλήθους 22

Studie

   

1 Εαν τις κλεψη βουν η προβατον και σφαξη αυτο η πωληση αυτο, θελει πληρωσει πεντε βοας αντι του βοος και τεσσαρα προβατα αντι του προβατου.

2 Εαν ο κλεπτης ευρεθη καμνων ρηξιν και κτυπηθη και αποθανη, δεν θελει χυθη αιμα δι' αυτον.

3 Εαν ομως ο ηλιος ανατειλη επανω αυτου, θελει χυθη αιμα δι' αυτον· πρεπει να καμη ανταποδοσιν· και αν δεν εχη, θελει πωληθη δια την κλοπην αυτου.

4 Εαν το κλοπιμαιον ευρεθη εις τας χειρας αυτου ζων, ειτε βους ειτε ονος ειτε προβατον, θελει αποδωσει το διπλουν.

5 Εαν τις καταβοσκηση αγρον η αμπελωνα και αφηση το κτηνος αυτου να βοσκηθη εν αγρω ξενου ανθρωπου, θελει καμει ανταποδοσιν εκ του καλητερου του αγρου αυτου και εκ του καλητερου του αμπελωνος αυτου.

6 Εαν εξελθη πυρ και ευρη ακανθας, και καωσι θημωνιαι σιτου η ασταχυα ισταμενα η αγρος, ο αναψας το πυρ θελει εξαπαντος καμει ανταποδοσιν.

7 Εαν τις παραδωση εις τον πλησιον αυτου αργυριον η σκευη δια να φυλαττη αυτα, και κλαπωσιν εκ της οικιας του ανθρωπου, αν ευρεθη ο κλεπτης, θελει αποδωσει το διπλουν·

8 αν ο κλεπτης δεν ευρεθη, τοτε ο κυριος της οικιας θελει φερθη εμπροσθεν των κριτων, δια να εξετασθη αν δεν εβαλε την χειρα αυτου επι τα κτηματα του πλησιον αυτου.

9 Περι παντος ειδους αδικηματος, περι βοος, περι ονου, περι προβατου, περι ενδυματος, περι παντος πραγματος χαμενου, το οποιον αλλος ηθελε διαφιλονεικει οτι ειναι αυτου, η κρισις αμφοτερων θελει ελθει εμπροσθεν των κριτων· και οντινα καταδικασωσιν οι κριται, εκεινος θελει αποδωσει το διπλουν εις τον πλησιον αυτου.

10 Εαν τις παραδωση εις τον πλησιον αυτου ονον η βουν η προβατον η οποιονδηποτε κτηνος, δια να φυλαττη αυτο, και αποθανη η συντριφθη η αρπαχθη χωρις να ιδη τις,

11 ορκος Θεου θελει γεινει ανα μεσον αμφοτερων αυτων, οτι δεν εβαλε την χειρα αυτου επι το κτημα του πλησιον αυτου· και ο κυριος αυτου θελει λαβει αυτο, ο δε αλλος δεν θελει καμει ανταποδοσιν.

12 Εαν ομως εκλεφθη παρ' αυτου, θελει καμει ανταποδοσιν εις τον κυριον αυτου.

13 Εαν εγεινε θηριαλωτον, θελει φερει αυτο δια μαρτυριαν και δεν θελει πληρωσει το θηριαλωτον.

14 Και εαν τις δανεισθη ζωον παρα του πλησιον αυτου, και συντριφθη η αποθανη, ο δε κυριος αυτου δεν ηναι μετ' αυτου, θελει εξαπαντος πληρωσει αυτο.

15 Εαν ομως ο κυριος αυτου ηναι μετ' αυτου, δεν θελει πληρωσει· αν ητο μεμισθωμενον, ηλθε δια τον μισθον αυτου.

16 Και εαν τις απατηση παρθενον μη ηρραβωνισμενην, και κοιμηθη μετ' αυτης, θελει εξαπαντος προικισει αυτην με προικα δια γυναικα εις εαυτον.

17 Εαν ομως ο πατηρ αυτης δεν στεργη να δωση αυτην εις αυτον, αργυριον θελει πληρωσει κατα την προικα των παρθενων.

18 Μαγισσαν δεν θελεις αφησει να ζη.

19 Οστις συνευρεθη με κτηνος, θελει εξαπαντος θανατωθη.

20 Ο θυσιαζων εις θεους, εκτος εις μονον τον Κυριον, θελει εξολοθρευθη.

21 Και ξενον δεν θελεις κακοποιησει ουδε θελεις καταδυναστευσει αυτον· διοτι ξενοι εσταθητε εν τη γη της Αιγυπτου.

22 Ουδεμιαν χηραν η ορφανον δεν θελετε καταθλιψει.

23 Εαν καταθλιψητε αυτους οπωσδηποτε και βοησωσι προς εμε, θελω εξαπαντος εισακουσει της φωνης αυτων,

24 και ο θυμος μου θελει εξαφθη και θελω σας θανατωσει εν μαχαιρα· και αι γυναικες σας θελουσιν εισθαι χηραι και τα τεκνα σας ορφανα.

25 Εαν δανεισης αργυριον εις τον πτωχον γειτονα σου μεταξυ του λαου μου, δεν θελεις φερθη προς αυτον ως τοκιστης, δεν θελεις επιβαλει επ' αυτον τοκον.

26 Εαν λαβης ενεχυρον το ενδυμα του πλησιον σου, θελεις επιστρεψει αυτο προς αυτον πριν δυση ο ηλιος·

27 διοτι τουτο μονον ειναι το σκεπασμα αυτου, τουτο το ενδυμα του δερματος αυτου· με τι θελει κοιμηθη; και οταν βοηση προς εμε, θελω εισακουσει· διοτι εγω ειμαι ελεημων.

28 Δεν θελεις κακολογησει κριτας, ουδε θελεις καταρασθη αρχοντα του λαου σου.

29 Τας απαρχας του αλωνιου σου και του ληνου σου δεν θελεις καθυστερησει· τον πρωτοτοκον σου εκ των υιων σου θελεις δωσει εις εμε·

30 ομοιως θελεις καμει δια τον βουν σου και δια το προβατον σου· επτα ημερας θελει εισθαι μετα της μητρος αυτου, την ογδοην ημεραν θελεις δωσει αυτο εις εμε.

31 Και ανδρες αγιοι θελετε εισθαι εις εμε· και κρεας θηριαλωτον εν τω αγρω δεν θελετε φαγει· εις τον σκυλον θελετε ριψει αυτο.

9199. 'Or orphan' means those who possess truth but not as yet good, and still have a desire for good. This is clear from the meaning of 'orphan' as those who possess truth and have a desire for good. Such people are meant by 'orphans' because sons bereft of father and mother, that is, those deprived of interior goodness and truth, are orphans. For 'father' in the Word means interior good, and 'mother' truth joined to that good, 5581; but 'sons' means truths derived from them. For the meaning of 'sons' as truths, see 489, 491, 533, 1147, 2813, 3373, 6583. The fact that sons and not daughters are meant here by 'orphans' is evident from verse 24 below, where it says, And your sons will be orphans. The reason why sons who are orphans are those who desire good is that the Lord then stands in place of their father, according to the following words in David,

A father of the orphans, and a judge of the widows, is God in the habitation of His holiness. Psalms 68:5.

[2] 'Orphans' are those who have received instruction in the Church's truths of faith which come from the Word, and who are then led by means of those truths to good. This is also evident from the Lord's words in John,

I will ask the Father to give you another Paraclete, to remain with you forever, the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him. But you know Him, because He remains with you and is among you. I will not leave you orphans, I will come to you. These things I have spoken to you, while I remain with you; but the Paraclete, the Holy Spirit, He will teach you all things. John 14:16-18, 24-26.

[3] Every detail of these verses makes it clear that those are 'orphans' who possess truths and have a desire for good. 'The Paraclete' is used to mean Divine Truth, which the Lord was when He was in the world and which has emanated from Him ever since He glorified His Human and went away from the world. Therefore He says that He will send the Paraclete and that He Himself will come. 'Sending the Paraclete' means enlightening and instructing them in the truths of faith, and 'coming to them' means leading them on to good. This is why He says, I will not leave you orphans. As has been stated, 'the Paraclete' is used to mean Divine Truth, which the Lord was when He was in the world and which has emanated from Him ever since He glorified His Human and went away from the world. This was something the Lord taught plainly several times; yet those who identify persons in the Godhead and not essences united into one do not grasp it. For the explanation of the Word and the understanding of it by a person depend on the ideas he already has. The same applies to places where the Lord says that He is in the Father, and the Father is in Him; that the Father and He are One; also that all that is His is the Father's, and all that is the Father's is His, John 10:30; 14:1-11, 20; 16:15; 17:11.

[4] But let these truths stated above receive further explanation.

The Paraclete is used to mean Divine Truth

This is evident from the Lord's actual words; for the Paraclete is called 'the Spirit of truth' by Him, and also He says, 'the Paraclete, the Holy Spirit, will teach you all things'.

The Lord was Divine Truth when He was in the world

This too is evident from the Lord's words there; for He says that He will send 'another Paraclete' (that is, another in place of Himself), who will be the Spirit of truth, and - referring to Himself - that they know Him 'because He remains with you and is among you'. He also says, I tell you the truth. If I do not go away the Paraclete will not come to you; but if I go away I will send Him to you, John 16:7. Another place, John 7:39, states, 'This He said concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet, because Jesus was not yet glorified'. And other places again state that He is the way and the truth, John 14:6; also that He is the Word, that God is the Word, and that the Word became flesh, John 1:1-3, 14, 'the Word' being Divine Truth. For more about the Lord's being Divine Truth when He was in the world, see 3195, 4687, 4727, 6716, 6864, 7499, 8127, 8724.

[5] Divine Truth has emanated from the Lord ever since He glorified His Human and went away from the world This too is evident from the Lord's words, 'When I go away I will send the Spirit of truth to you' ('sending' means going out and emanating from, 2397, 4710), and also 'When He comes He will guide you into all truth; 1 for He will not speak from Himself, but whatever He hears He will speak. He will glorify Me, for He will receive from what is Mine and declare it to you', John 16:7, 13-15.

When the Lord went away from the world His Human became Divine Good as well as Divine Truth, see 3704, 3712, 3737, 3969, 4577, 5704, 6864, 7014, 7499, 8241, 8724, 8760, 9167. And since then Divine Truth has emanated from Divine Good, which He Himself is, as the light of all creation emanates from the sun, 3636, 3643, 3969, 5704, 7083, 8127. The references listed above in 9194 may be added to these.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. The Latin means He will teach you in all truth but the Greek means He will guide you into all truth, which Swedenborg has in other places where he quotes this verse.
