Ιεζεκιήλ 18

Studie

   

1 Και εγεινε λογος Κυριου προς εμε, λεγων,

2 Τι εννοειτε σεις, οι παροιμιαζομενοι την παροιμιαν ταυτην περι της γης του Ισραηλ, λεγοντες, Οι πατερες εφαγον ομφακα και οι οδοντες των τεκνων ημωδιασαν;

3 Ζω εγω, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος, δεν θελετε πλεον παροιμιασθη την παροιμιαν ταυτην εν τω Ισραηλ.

4 Ιδου, πασαι αι ψυχαι ειναι εμου· ως η ψυχη του πατρος, ουτω και η ψυχη του υιου εμου ειναι· ψυχη η αμαρτησασα, αυτη θελει αποθανει.

5 Αλλ' οστις ειναι δικαιος και πραττει κρισιν και δικαιοσυνην,

6 δεν τρωγει επι των ορεων και δεν σηκονει τους οφθαλμους αυτου προς τα ειδωλα του οικου Ισραηλ, και δεν μιαινει την γυναικα του πλησιον αυτου και δεν πλησιαζει εις γυναικα ουσαν εν τη ακαθαρσια αυτης,

7 και δεν καταδυναστευει ανθρωπον, επιστρεφει εις τον χρεωφειλετην το ενεχυρον αυτου, δεν αρπαζει βιαιως, διδει τον αρτον αυτου εις τον πεινωντα και καλυπτει με ιματιον τον γυμνον,

8 δεν διδει επι τοκω και δεν λαμβανει προσθηκην, αποστρεφει την χειρα αυτου απο αδικιας, καμνει δικαιαν κρισιν αναμεσον ανθρωπου και ανθρωπου,

9 περιπατει εν τοις διαταγμασι μου και φυλαττει τας κρισεις μου, δια να καμνη αληθειαν, ουτος ειναι δικαιος, θελει βεβαιως ζησει, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος.

10 Εαν ομως γεννηση υιον κλεπτην, χυνοντα αιμα και πραττοντα τι εκ των τοιουτων,

11 και οστις δεν καμνει παντα ταυτα, αλλα και επι των ορεων τρωγει και την γυναικα του πλησιον αυτου μιαινει,

12 τον πτωχον και ενδεη καταδυναστευει, αρπαζει βιαιως, δεν επιστρεφει το ενεχυρον και σηκονει τους οφθαλμους αυτου προς τα ειδωλα και πραττει βδελυγματα,

13 διδει επι τοκω και λαμβανει προσθηκην, ουτος θελει ζησει; δεν θελει ζησει· παντα ταυτα τα βδελυγματα επραξεν· εξαπαντος θελει θανατωθη· το αιμα αυτου θελει εισθαι επ' αυτον.

14 Εαν δε γεννηση υιον, οστις βλεπων παντα τα αμαρτηματα του πατρος αυτου, τα οποια επραξε, προσεχει και δεν πραττει τοιαυτα,

15 δεν τρωγει επι των ορεων και δεν σηκονει τους οφθαλμους αυτου προς τα ειδωλα του οικου Ισραηλ και δεν μιαινει την γυναικα του πλησιον αυτου,

16 και δεν καταδυναστευει ανθρωπον, δεν κατακρατει το ενεχυρον και δεν αρπαζει βιαιως, διδει τον αρτον αυτου εις τον πεινωντα και καλυπτει με ιματιον τον γυμνον,

17 αποστρεφει την χειρα αυτου απο του πτωχου, τοκον και προσθηκην δεν λαμβανει, εκτελει τας κρισεις μου, περιπατει εν τοις διαταγμασι μου, ουτος δεν θελει θανατωθη δια την ανομιαν του πατρος αυτου, εξαπαντος θελει ζησει.

18 Ο πατηρ αυτου, επειδη σκληρως κατεδυναστευσεν, ηρπασε βιαιως τον αδελφον αυτου και επραξε μεταξυ του λαου αυτου ο, τι δεν ειναι καλον, ιδου, ουτος θελει αποθανει εν τη ανομια αυτου.

19 Σεις ομως λεγετε, Δια τι; ο υιος δεν βασταζει την ανομιαν του πατρος; Αφου ο υιος εκαμε κρισιν και δικαιοσυνην, και εφυλαξε παντα τα διαταγματα μου και εξετελεσεν αυτα, εξαπαντος θελει ζησει.

20 Η ψυχη η αμαρτανουσα, αυτη θελει αποθανει· ο υιος δεν θελει βαστασει την ανομιαν του πατρος και ο πατηρ δεν θελει βαστασει την ανομιαν του υιου· η δικαιοσυνη του δικαιου θελει εισθαι επ' αυτον και η ανομια του ανομου θελει εισθαι επ' αυτον.

21 Αλλ' εαν ο ανομος επιστραφη απο πασων των αμαρτιων αυτου, τας οποιας επραξε, και φυλαξη παντα τα διαταγματα μου και πραξη κρισιν και δικαιοσυνην, εξαπαντος θελει ζησει, δεν θελει αποθανει·

22 πασαι αι ανομιαι αυτου, τας οποιας επραξε, δεν θελουσι μνημονευθη εις αυτον· εν τη δικαιοσυνη αυτου, την οποιαν επραξε, θελει ζησει.

23 Μηπως εγω θελω τωοντι τον θανατον του ανομου, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος, και ουχι το να επιστρεψη απο των οδων αυτου και να ζηση;

24 Οταν ομως ο δικαιος επιστραφη απο της δικαιοσυνης αυτου και πραξη αδικιαν και πραξη κατα παντα τα βδελυγματα τα οποια ο ανομος πραττει, τοτε θελει ζησει; Πασα η δικαιοσυνη αυτου, την οποιαν εκαμε, δεν θελει μνημονευθη· εν τη ανομια αυτου την οποιαν ηνομησε και εν τη αμαρτια αυτου, την οποιαν ημαρτησεν, εν αυταις θελει αποθανει.

25 Σεις ομως λεγετε, Η οδος του Κυριου δεν ειναι ευθεια. Ακουσατε τωρα, οικος Ισραηλ· Η οδος μου δεν ειναι ευθεια; ουχι αι οδοι υμων διεστραμμεναι;

26 Οταν ο δικαιος επιστραφη απο της δικαιοσυνης αυτου και πραξη αδικιαν και αποθανη εν αυτη, δια την αδικιαν αυτου την οποιαν επραξε θελει αποθανει.

27 Και οταν ο ανομος επιστραφη απο της ανομιας αυτου, την οποιαν επραξε, και πραξη κρισιν και δικαιοσυνην, ουτος θελει φυλαξει ζωσαν την ψυχην αυτου.

28 Επειδη εσυλλογισθη και επεστρεψεν απο πασων των ανομιων αυτου, τας οποιας επραξε, θελει εξαπαντος ζησει, δεν θελει αποθανει.

29 Αλλ' ο οικος Ισραηλ λεγει, Η οδος του Κυριου δεν ειναι ευθεια· οικος Ισραηλ, αι οδοι μου δεν ειναι ευθειαι; ουχι αι οδοι υμων διεστραμμεναι;

30 Δια τουτο, οικος Ισραηλ, θελω σας κρινει, εκαστον κατα τας οδους αυτου, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος. Μετανοησατε και επιστρεψατε απο πασων των ανομιων υμων, και δεν θελει εισθαι εις εσας η ανομια εις απωλειαν.

31 Απορριψατε αφ' υμων πασας τας ανομιας υμων, τας οποιας ηνομησατε εις εμε, και καμετε εις εαυτους νεαν καρδιαν και νεον πνευμα· και δια τι να αποθανητε, οικος Ισραηλ;

32 Διοτι εγω δεν θελω τον θανατον του αποθνησκοντος, λεγει Κυριος ο Θεος· δια τουτο επιστρεψατε και ζησατε.

Waters

  

'Waters' particularly signify the spiritual parts of a person, or the intellectual aspects of faith, and also their opposites.

'The waters above the firmament,' as in Genesis 1:7, signify the knowledges in the internal self, and 'the waters beneath the firmament' signify the knowledges of the external self.

'Waters,' as in Ezekiel 47:9, refer to the New Jerusalem, and they signify spiritual things from a celestial origin.

'Many waters,' as in Revelation 17:1, signify truths of the Word adulterated. 'Waters' or 'rivers' signify spiritual, rational, or scientific things pertaining to truth.

'Waters … that go softly,' as in Isaiah 8:6-7, signify spiritual things, and 'waters … strong and many,' signify falsities.

'Waters,' as in Psalms 104:3, signify divine truths.

'Waters' signify truths in the natural self, and in the opposite sense, falsities.

'The waters were dried up from off the earth,' as in Genesis 8:7, signifies the apparent dissipation of falsities.

Exodus 14

Studie

   

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 "Speak to the children of Israel, that they turn back and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, before Baal Zephon. You shall encamp opposite it by the sea.

3 Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, 'They are entangled in the land. The wilderness has shut them in.'

4 I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and he will follow after them; and I will get honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies; and the Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh." They did so.

5 It was told the king of Egypt that the people had fled; and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was changed towards the people, and they said, "What is this we have done, that we have let Israel go from serving us?"

6 He prepared his chariot, and took his army with him;

7 and he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over all of them.

8 Yahweh hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel; for the children of Israel went out with a high hand.

9 The Egyptians pursued after them: all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, his horsemen, and his army; and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baal Zephon.

10 When Pharaoh drew near, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and behold, the Egyptians were marching after them; and they were very afraid. The children of Israel cried out to Yahweh.

11 They said to Moses, "Because there were no graves in Egypt, have you taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you treated us this way, to bring us forth out of Egypt?

12 Isn't this the word that we spoke to you in Egypt, saying, 'Leave us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians?' For it were better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness."

13 Moses said to the people, "Don't be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of Yahweh, which he will work for you today: for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall never see them again.

14 Yahweh will fight for you, and you shall be still."

15 Yahweh said to Moses, "Why do you cry to me? Speak to the children of Israel, that they go forward.

16 Lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go into the midst of the sea on dry ground.

17 I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall go in after them: and I will get myself honor over Pharaoh, and over all his armies, over his chariots, and over his horsemen.

18 The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh, when I have gotten myself honor over Pharaoh, over his chariots, and over his horsemen."

19 The angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, moved and went behind them; and the pillar of cloud moved from before them, and stood behind them.

20 It came between the camp of Egypt and the camp of Israel; and there was the cloud and the darkness, yet gave it light by night: and the one didn't come near the other all the night.

21 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and Yahweh caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all the night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.

22 The children of Israel went into the midst of the sea on the dry ground, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.

23 The Egyptians pursued, and went in after them into the midst of the sea: all of Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.

24 It happened in the morning watch, that Yahweh looked out on the Egyptian army through the pillar of fire and of cloud, and confused the Egyptian army.

25 He took off their chariot wheels, and they drove them heavily; so that the Egyptians said, "Let's flee from the face of Israel, for Yahweh fights for them against the Egyptians!"

26 Yahweh said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand over the sea, that the waters may come again on the Egyptians, on their chariots, and on their horsemen."

27 Moses stretched out his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it. Yahweh overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

28 The waters returned, and covered the chariots and the horsemen, even all Pharaoh's army that went in after them into the sea. There remained not so much as one of them.

29 But the children of Israel walked on dry land in the midst of the sea, and the waters were a wall to them on their right hand, and on their left.

30 Thus Yahweh saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead on the seashore.

31 Israel saw the great work which Yahweh did to the Egyptians, and the people feared Yahweh; and they believed in Yahweh, and in his servant Moses.
