Hosea 11

Studie

   

1 Οτε ο Ισραηλ ητο νηπιον, τοτε εγω ηγαπησα αυτον και εξ Αιγυπτου εκαλεσα τον υιον μου.

2 Οσον εκαλουν αυτους, τοσον αυτοι ανεχωρουν απ' εμπροσθεν αυτων· εθυσιαζον εις τους Βααλειμ και εθυμιαζον εις τα γλυπτα.

3 Εγω εδιδαξα ετι τον Εφραιμ να περιπατη, πιανων αυτον απο των βραχιονων αυτου· αλλα δεν εγνωρισαν οτι ιατρευον αυτους.

4 Εσυρα αυτους με σχοινια ανθρωπου, με δεσμους αγαπης· και ημην εις αυτους ως οι αφαιρουντες τον ζυγον επανωθεν των σιαγονων αυτων, και εθεσα τροφην εμπροσθεν αυτων.

5 Δεν θελει επιστρεψει εις την γην της Αιγυπτου, αλλ' ο Ασσυριος θελει εισθαι βασιλευς αυτου, διοτι δεν ηθελησαν να επιστραφωσι.

6 Και η ρομφαια θελει επιπεσει επι τας πολεις αυτου και θελει αναλωσει τους ισχυρους αυτου και καταφαγει, ενεκα των διαβουλιων αυτων.

7 Και ο λαος μου ειναι προσκεκολλημενος εις την αποστασιαν την κατ' εμου· αν και εκαλεσθησαν προς τον Υψιστον, ουδεις ομως υψωσεν αυτον.

8 Πως θελω σε παραδωσει, Εφραιμ; πως θελω σε εγκαταλιπει, Ισραηλ; πως θελω σε καμει ως Αδαμα; πως θελω σε θεσει ως Σεβωειμ; η καρδια μου μετεστραφη εντος μου, τα σπλαγχνα μου συνεκινηθησαν.

9 Δεν θελω εκτελεσει την εξαψιν του θυμου μου, δεν θελω επιστρεψει εις εξολοθρευμον του Εφραιμ· διοτι εγω ειμαι Θεος και ουχι ανθρωπος, Αγιος εν τω μεσω σου· και δεν θελω εισελθει εν θυμω.

10 Κατοπιν του Κυριου θελουσι περιπατει· ως λεων θελει βρυχασθαι· οταν αυτος βρυχηθη, τοτε θελουσι σπευσει εκστατικα τα τεκνα απο της δυσεως·

11 θελουσι σπευσει εκστατικα ως πτηνον απο της Αιγυπτου και ως περιστερα απο της γης της Ασσυριας, και θελω αποκαταστησει αυτους εν τοις οικοις αυτων, λεγει Κυριος.

12 Ο Εφραιμ με περιεκυκλωσε με ψευδη, και ο οικος Ισραηλ με απατην· αλλ' ο Ιουδας ετι εχει εξουσιαν μετα του Θεου και ειναι πιστος μετα των αγιων.

Apocalypse Explained # 24

/ 1232  
  

24. And from the seven spirits, signifies the Divine in heaven. This is evident from the signification of "seven," as being what is full, and therefore all, and from its being predicated of the holy Divine things that proceed from the Lord (See above, n. 20); also from the signification of "spirits," as being those of whom heaven consists; for all these are called "spirits of God," since the Spirit of God is the Divine proceeding, or Divine truth united to Divine good in heaven and the church (Arcana Coelestia 9818); and the Divine proceeding or Divine truth united to Divine good, forms and creates the angel, and thus makes him [what he is] according to quality and quantity of reception (See the work on Heaven and Hell 7-12).

From this it is evident that by "the seven spirits" (of which more below), are not meant seven spirits, but all who are in heaven; as by the "seven churches" are not meant seven churches, but all who are in truths from good, or who are of the church (See above, n. 20). When this is understood, an arcanum is opened, namely, the meaning of "Jehovah God" in the Word; which is, that by "Jehovah" is meant the Divine Esse, and by "God" the Divine Existere in heaven. The Divine that is meant by "God" is the Divine Existere in heaven, because the Divine in heaven is in many; therefore in the Hebrew language, God is called "Elohim," in the plural; for the same reason angels are called gods, not that they are gods, but because the Divine of the Lord that is in them is meant by "God."

(That in the Word the Lord is called Jehovah from Esse or Essence, and God from Existere or Existence, see Arcana Coelestia 300, 3910, 6905; also that the Divine Esse is Divine good, and that the Divine Existere is Divine truth, n. 3061, 6280, 6880, 6905, 10579; and in general, that good is esse, and truth is existere therefrom, n. 5002. That angels are called gods from the reception of Divine truth proceeding from the Divine good of the Lord, n. 4295, 4402, 7268, 7873, 8301, 8192; and that Divine truth united to Divine good in heaven, is called, in one phrase, Divine truth, see in the work on Heaven and Hell 13, 133, 140)
