1 Και ειπεν ο Θεος προς τον Ιακωβ, Σηκωθεις αναβηθι εις Βαιθηλ και κατοικησον εκει· και καμε εκει θυσιαστηριον εις τον Θεον, οστις εφανη εις σε οτε εφευγες απο προσωπου Ησαυ του αδελφου σου.

2 Και ειπεν ο Ιακωβ προς τον οικον αυτου και προς παντας τους μεθ' εαυτου, Εκβαλετε τους θεους τους ξενους τους μεταξυ σας, και καθαρισθητε και αλλαξατε τα ενδυματα σας·

3 και σηκωθεντες, ας αναβωμεν εις Βαιθηλ· και εκει θελω καμει θυσιαστηριον εις τον Θεον, οστις μου επηκουσεν εν τη ημερα της θλιψεως μου και ητο μετ' εμου εν τη οδω, καθ' ην επορευομην.

4 Και εδωκαν εις τον Ιακωβ παντας τους ξενους θεους, οσοι ησαν εις τας χειρας αυτων, και τα ενωτια τα εις τα ωτια αυτων· και εκρυψεν αυτα ο Ιακωβ υπο την δρυν, την πλησιον της Συχεμ.

5 Μετα ταυτα ανεχωρησαν· και επεπεσε τρομος του Θεου επι τας πολεις τας κυκλω αυτων· και δεν κατεδιωξαν οπισω των υιων του Ιακωβ.

6 Ηλθε δε ο Ιακωβ εις Λουζ, την εν τη γη Χανααν, ητις ειναι η Βαιθηλ, αυτος και πας ο λαος ο μετ' αυτου.

7 Και ωκοδομησεν εκει θυσιαστηριον, και εκαλεσε το ονομα του τοπου Ελ-βαιθηλ· διοτι εκει εφανερωθη εις αυτον ο Θεος, οτε εφευγεν απο προσωπου του αδελφου αυτου.

8 Απεθανε δε η Δεβορρα, η τροφος της Ρεβεκκας, και εταφη παρακατω της Βαιθηλ, υπο την δρυν· και ωνομασθη η δρυς Αλλον-βακουθ.

9 Εφανη δε παλιν ο Θεος εις τον Ιακωβ, αφου επεστρεψεν απο Παδαν-αραμ, και ευλογησεν αυτον.

10 Και ειπε προς αυτον ο Θεος, Το ονομα σου ειναι Ιακωβ· δεν θελεις ονομαζεσθαι πλεον Ιακωβ, αλλα Ισραηλ θελει εισθαι το ονομα σου· και εκαλεσε το ονομα αυτου Ισραηλ.

11 Ειπε δε προς αυτον ο Θεος, Εγω ειμαι ο Θεος ο Παντοκρατωρ· αυξανου και πληθυνου· εθνος, και πληθος εθνων θελουσι γεινει εκ σου, και βασιλεις θελουσιν εξελθει εκ της οσφυος σου·

12 και την γην, την οποιαν εδωκα εις τον Αβρααμ και εις τον Ισαακ, εις σε θελω δωσει αυτην· και εις το σπερμα σου μετα σε θελω δωσει την γην ταυτην.

13 Και ανεβη ο Θεος απ' αυτου, εκ του τοπου οπου ελαλησε μετ' αυτου.

14 Και εστησεν ο Ιακωβ στηλην εν τω τοπω οπου ελαλησε μετ' αυτου, στηλην λιθινην· και εκαμεν επ' αυτην σπονδην και επεχυσεν επ' αυτην ελαιον.

15 Και εκαλεσεν ο Ιακωβ το ονομα του τοπου, οπου ελαλησε μετ' αυτου ο Θεος, Βαιθηλ.

16 Μετα ταυτα ανεχωρησαν απο Βαιθηλ· και ενω εμενεν ολιγον διαστημα δια να φθασωσιν εις Εφραθα, εγεννησεν η Ραχηλ· και υπεφερε μεγαλον αγωνα εις την γενναν αυτης.

17 Ενω δε ευρισκετο εις τον σκληρον αγωνα της γεννας, ειπε προς αυτην η μαια, Μη φοβου, διοτι και ουτος σου ειναι υιος·

18 και ενω παρεδιδε την ψυχην διοτι απεθανεν, εκαλεσε το ονομα αυτου Βεν-ονι· ο δε πατηρ αυτου εκαλεσεν αυτον Βενιαμιν.

19 Και απεθανεν η Ραχηλ και εταφη εν τη οδω της Εφραθα, ητις ειναι Βηθλεεμ.

20 Και εστησεν ο Ιακωβ στηλην επι του ταφου αυτης· αυτη ειναι η στηλη του ταφου της Ραχηλ μεχρι της σημερον.

21 Σηκωθεις δε ο Ισραηλ, εστησε την σκηνην αυτου περαν του Μιγδωλ-εδερ.

22 Και οτε κατωκει ο Ισραηλ εν τη γη εκεινη, υπηγεν ο Ρουβην και εκοιμηθη μετα της Βαλλας παλλακης του πατρος αυτου· και ηκουσε τουτο ο Ισραηλ. Ησαν δε οι υιοι του Ιακωβ δωδεκα·

23 οι υιοι της Λειας, Ρουβην, ο πρωτοτοκος του Ιακωβ, και Συμεων και Λευι και Ιουδας και Ισσαχαρ και Ζαβουλων·

24 οι υιοι της Ραχηλ, Ιωσηφ και Βενιαμιν·

25 οι δε υιοι της Βαλλας, θεραπαινης της Ραχηλ, Δαν και Νεφθαλι·

26 και οι υιοι της Ζελφας, θεραπαινης της Λειας, Γαδ και Ασηρ· ουτοι ειναι οι υιοι του Ιακωβ, οιτινες εγεννηθησαν εις αυτον εν Παδαν-αραμ.

27 Ηλθε δε ο Ιακωβ προς Ισαακ τον πατερα αυτου εις Μαμβρη, εις Κιριαθ-αρβα, ητις ειναι η Χεβρων, οπου ο Αβρααμ και ο Ισαακ ειχον παροικησει.

28 Και ησαν αι ημεραι του Ισαακ εκατον ογδοηκοντα ετη.

29 Και εκπνευσας ο Ισαακ απεθανε και προσετεθη εις τον λαον αυτου, γερων και πληρης ημερων· και εθαψαν αυτον Ησαυ και Ιακωβ οι υιοι αυτου.

2643. 'Who would have said to Abraham, Sarah will suckle sons?' means that by His own power the Lord implanted the Human within the Divine. This is clear from the representation of 'Abraham' and also of 'Sarah', and from the meaning of 'suckling', and of 'sons'. It has been shown already that 'Abraham' represents Divine Good and 'Sarah' Divine Truth. 'Milk' means that which is spiritual from a celestial origin, that is, truth deriving from good, see 2184, so that 'suckling' means implanting that truth; And 'sons' means truths, here truths that exist in the Rational, as is clear from the meaning of 'sons', 489-491, 533. The reason why in the internal sense the words under consideration mean that the Lord by His own power implanted the Human within the Divine is that Divine Truth is one and the same as the Divine Human, and when in reference to this it is said 'to suckle sons for Abraham' the meaning is that He implanted the Human within the Divine; and as it was the Human He implanted, He did so by His own power. But scarcely any clearer and more intelligible explanation of these matters is possible. To say more would obscure still further what is meant; for these are Divine matters, which can be presented to angels alone by means of celestial and spiritual things. If presented to men in some more exalted manner those matters would fall into the material and bodily ideas which men possess.

[2] What is more, it should be recognized that it is the nature of the Lord's Divine Rational when it was first born that is being described by these words, 'God has made laughter for me; everyone that hears will laugh for me; and she said, Who would have said to Abraham, Sarah will suckle sons?' For this was in keeping with an ancient custom that when an infant was born it was given a name which served to mean the state; and at the same time a description of that state was added, as when Cain was born to Eve and Adam, Genesis 4:1, and when Seth was born to the same, Genesis 4:25; and as when Noah was born to Lamech, Genesis 5:29, Esau and Jacob to Isaac, Genesis 25:25-26, the twelve sons to Jacob, Genesis 29:32-35; 30:6, 8, 11, 13, 18, 20, 24; 35:18, Perez and Zerah to Tamar, Genesis 38:29-30, Manasseh and Ephraim to Joseph, Genesis 41:51-52, and Gershom and Eliezer to Moses, Exodus 2:22; 18:4. What all these represent, and what they mean in the internal sense, was embodied in the descriptions added to the names that were given. The same is the case here with what Isaac represents and means. What this name embodies is evident to some small extent from this brief explanation that has been given, but deeper arcana are nevertheless concealed there since they are Divine matters, which no sentences or phrases can be formed to express.

Genesis 4

Studie

   

1 The man knew Eve his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Cain, and said, "I have gotten a man with Yahweh's help."

2 Again she gave birth, to Cain's brother Abel. Abel was a keeper of sheep, but Cain was a tiller of the ground.

3 As time passed, it happened that Cain brought an offering to Yahweh from the fruit of the ground.

4 Abel also brought some of the firstborn of his flock and of its fat. Yahweh respected Abel and his offering,

5 but he didn't respect Cain and his offering. Cain was very angry, and the expression on his face fell.

6 Yahweh said to Cain, "Why are you angry? Why has the expression of your face fallen?

7 If you do well, will it not be lifted up? If you don't do well, sin crouches at the door. Its desire is for you, but you are to rule over it."

8 Cain said to Abel, his brother, "Let's go into the field." It happened when they were in the field, that Cain rose up against Abel, his brother, and killed him.

9 Yahweh said to Cain, "Where is Abel, your brother?" He said, "I don't know. Am I my brother's keeper?"

10 Yahweh said, "What have you done? The voice of your brother's blood cries to me from the ground.

11 Now you are cursed because of the ground, which has opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand.

12 From now on, when you till the ground, it won't yield its strength to you. You shall be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth."

13 Cain said to Yahweh, "My punishment is greater than I can bear.

14 Behold, you have driven me out this day from the surface of the ground. I will be hidden from your face, and I will be a fugitive and a wanderer in the earth. It will happen that whoever finds me will kill me."

15 Yahweh said to him, "Therefore whoever slays Cain, vengeance will be taken on him sevenfold." Yahweh appointed a sign for Cain, lest any finding him should strike him.

16 Cain went out from Yahweh's presence, and lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.

17 Cain knew his wife. She conceived, and gave birth to Enoch. He built a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.

18 To Enoch was born Irad. Irad became the father of Mehujael. Mehujael became the father of Methushael. Methushael became the father of Lamech.

19 Lamech took two wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah.

20 Adah gave birth to Jabal, who was the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.

21 His brother's name was Jubal, who was the father of all who handle the harp and pipe.

22 Zillah also gave birth to Tubal Cain, the forger of every cutting instrument of brass and iron. Tubal Cain's sister was Naamah.

23 Lamech said to his wives, "Adah and Zillah, hear my voice. You wives of Lamech, listen to my speech, for I have slain a man for wounding me, a young man for bruising me.

24 If Cain will be avenged seven times, truly Lamech seventy-seven times."

25 Adam knew his wife again. She gave birth to a son, and named him Seth, "for God has appointed me another child instead of Abel, for Cain killed him."

26 There was also born a son to Seth, and he named him Enosh. Then men began to call on Yahweh's name.
