1 וְאַתָּה בֶן־אָדָם קַח־לְךָ חֶרֶב חַדָּה תַּעַר הַגַּלָּבִים תִּקָּחֶנָּה לָּךְ וְהַעֲבַרְתָּ עַל־רֹאשְׁךָ וְעַל־זְקָנֶךָ וְלָקַחְתָּ לְךָ מֹאזְנֵי מִשְׁקָל וְחִלַּקְתָּם׃

2 שְׁלִשִׁית בָּאוּר תַּבְעִיר בְּתֹוךְ הָעִיר כִּמְלֹאת יְמֵי הַמָּצֹור וְלָקַחְתָּ אֶת־הַשְּׁלִשִׁית תַּכֶּה בַחֶרֶב סְבִיבֹותֶיהָ וְהַשְּׁלִשִׁית תִּזְרֶה לָרוּחַ וְחֶרֶב אָרִיק אַחֲרֵיהֶם׃

3 וְלָקַחְתָּ מִשָּׁם מְעַט בְּמִסְפָּר וְצַרְתָּ אֹותָם בִּכְנָפֶיךָ׃

4 וּמֵהֶם עֹוד תִּקָּח וְהִשְׁלַכְתָּ אֹותָם אֶל־תֹּוךְ הָאֵשׁ וְשָׂרַפְתָּ אֹתָם בָּאֵשׁ מִמֶּנּוּ תֵצֵא־אֵשׁ אֶל־כָּל־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ ף

5 כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהֹוִה זֹאת יְרוּשָׁלִַם בְּתֹוךְ הַגֹּויִם שַׂמְתִּיהָ וּסְבִיבֹותֶיהָ אֲרָצֹות׃

6 וַתֶּמֶר אֶת־מִשְׁפָּטַי לְרִשְׁעָה מִן־הַגֹּויִם וְאֶת־חֻקֹּותַי מִן־הָאֲרָצֹות אֲשֶׁר סְבִיבֹותֶיהָ כִּי בְמִשְׁפָּטַי מָאָסוּ וְחֻקֹּותַי לֹא־הָלְכוּ בָהֶם׃ ס

7 לָכֵן כֹּה־אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה יַעַן הֲמָנְכֶם מִן־הַגֹּויִם אֲשֶׁר סְבִיבֹותֵיכֶם בְּחֻקֹּותַי לֹא הֲלַכְתֶּם וְאֶת־מִשְׁפָּטַי לֹא עֲשִׂיתֶם וּכְמִשְׁפְּטֵי הַגֹּויִם אֲשֶׁר סְבִיבֹותֵיכֶם לֹא עֲשִׂיתֶם׃ ס

8 לָכֵן כֹּה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה הִנְנִי עָלַיִךְ גַּם־אָנִי וְעָשִׂיתִי בְתֹוךֵךְ מִשְׁפָּטִים לְעֵינֵי הַגֹּויִם׃

9 וְעָשִׂיתִי בָךְ אֵת אֲשֶׁר לֹא־עָשִׂיתִי וְאֵת אֲשֶׁר־לֹא־אֶעֱשֶׂה כָמֹהוּ עֹוד יַעַן כָּל־תֹּועֲבֹתָיִךְ׃ ס

10 לָכֵן אָבֹות יֹאכְלוּ בָנִים בְּתֹוךֵךְ וּבָנִים יֹאכְלוּ אֲבֹותָם וְעָשִׂיתִי בָךְ שְׁפָטִים וְזֵרִיתִי אֶת־כָּל־שְׁאֵרִיתֵךְ לְכָל־רוּחַ׃ ף

11 לָכֵן חַי־אָנִי נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה אִם־לֹא יַעַן אֶת־מִקְדָּשִׁי טִמֵּאת בְּכָל־שִׁקּוּצַיִךְ וּבְכָל־תֹּועֲבֹתָיִךְ וְגַם־אֲנִי אֶגְרַע וְלֹא־תָחֹוס עֵינִי וְגַם־אֲנִי לֹא אֶחְמֹול׃

12 שְׁלִשִׁתֵיךְ בַּדֶּבֶר יָמוּתוּ וּבָרָעָב יִכְלוּ בְתֹוךֵךְ וְהַשְּׁלִשִׁית בַּחֶרֶב יִפְּלוּ סְבִיבֹותָיִךְ וְהַשְּׁלִישִׁית לְכָל־רוּחַ אֱזָרֶה וְחֶרֶב אָרִיק אַחֲרֵיהֶם׃

13 וְכָלָה אַפִּי וַהֲנִחֹותִי חֲמָתִי בָּם וְהִנֶּחָמְתִּי וְיָדְעוּ כִּי־אֲנִי יְהוָה דִּבַּרְתִּי בְּקִנְאָתִי בְּכַלֹּותִי חֲמָתִי בָּם׃

14 וְאֶתְּנֵךְ לְחָרְבָּה וּלְחֶרְפָּה בַּגֹּויִם אֲשֶׁר סְבִיבֹותָיִךְ לְעֵינֵי כָּל־עֹובֵר׃

15 וְהָיְתָה חֶרְפָּה וּגְדוּפָה מוּסָר וּמְשַׁמָּה לַגֹּויִם אֲשֶׁר סְבִיבֹותָיִךְ בַּעֲשֹׂותִי בָךְ שְׁפָטִים בְּאַף וּבְחֵמָה וּבְתֹכְחֹות חֵמָה אֲנִי יְהוָה דִּבַּרְתִּי׃

16 בְּשַׁלְּחִי אֶת־חִצֵּי הָרָעָב הָרָעִים בָּהֶם אֲשֶׁר הָיוּ לְמַשְׁחִית אֲשֶׁר־אֲשַׁלַּח אֹותָם לְשַׁחֶתְכֶם וְרָעָב אֹסֵף עֲלֵיכֶם וְשָׁבַרְתִּי לָכֶם מַטֵּה־לָחֶם׃

17 וְשִׁלַּחְתִּי עֲלֵיכֶם רָעָב וְחַיָּה רָעָה וְשִׁכְּלֻךְ וְדֶבֶר וָדָם יַעֲבָר־בָּךְ וְחֶרֶב אָבִיא עָלַיִךְ אֲנִי יְהוָה דִּבַּרְתִּי׃ ף

Apocalypse Explained # 1019

/ 1232  
  

1019. Verse 19. And the great city was divided into three parts, signifies that all things of the doctrine of truth from the Word were dissipated. This is evident from the signification of "city" as being doctrine (See n. 223; and all things of doctrine from the Word are meant because it is called the "great city;" all things of the doctrine of truth are meant because it is added that "the cities of the nations fell," and this signifies all things of the doctrine of good; for doctrine treats both of truths, which are predicated of faith, and of goods, which are predicated of love; therefore it is said doctrine of truth and the doctrine of good. Also from the signification of "divided into three parts," as meaning to be dissipated. "To be divided into three parts" means to be dissipated, because "three" signifies all, the whole, and fullness, and when these are divided there is a dissipation. (That "three" signifies all, the whole, and fullness, and is predicated of truths, see above n. 532) "To be divided into three parts" has a like signification in Ezekiel (Ezekiel 5:2)

(The Eighth Commandment)

[2] The eighth commandment of the Decalogue, "Thou shalt not bear false witness," shall now be explained. "To bear false witness" signifies in the sense nearest to the letter to lie about the neighbor by accusing him falsely. But in the internal sense it signifies to call what is just unjust, and what is unjust just, and to confirm this by means of falsities; while in the inmost sense it signifies to falsify the truth and good of the Word, and on the other hand to prove a falsity of doctrine to be true by confirming it by means of fallacies, appearances, fabrications, knowledges falsely applied, sophistries and the like. The confirmations themselves and the consequent persuasions are false witnesses, for they are false testimonies. From this it can be seen that what is here meant is not only false witness before a judge, but even a judge himself who in perverting right makes what is just unjust, and what is unjust just, for he as well as the witness himself acts the part of a false witness. The same is true of every man who makes what is right to appear crooked, and what is crooked to appear right; likewise any ecclesiastical leader who falsifies the truth of the Word and perverts its good. In a word, every falsification of truth, spiritual, moral, and civil, which is done from an evil heart, is false witness.
