5 Mózes 33

Studie

   

1 Ez pedig az áldás, a melylyel megáldá Mózes, az Istennek embere, Izráel fiait az õ halála elõtt.

2 Monda ugyanis: Az Úr a Sinai [hegyrõl] jött, és Szeirbõl támadt fel nékik; Párán hegyérõl ragyogott elõ, tízezer szent közül jelent meg, jobbja felõl tüzes törvény vala számukra.

3 Bizony szereti õ a népeket! Mind kezednél vannak az õ szentjei, oda szegõdnek, a te lábaidhoz, és hallgatják a te beszédeidet.

4 Törvényt parancsolt nékünk Mózes, örökségül Jákób községének.

5 És király lõn Jesurunban, mikor összegyûltek a népnek fejei, és együtt voltak Izráel törzsei.

6 Éljen Rúben és meg ne haljon; és száma legyen embereinek.

7 Ez pedig a Júda [áldása]; és monda: Hallgasd meg Uram a Júda szavát, és vidd be õt az õ népéhez. Az õ keze elégséges legyen néki, de légy segítsége az õ szorongatói ellen.

8 Lévirõl pedig monda: A te Thummimod és Urimod a te kegyes férfiadé, a kit megkísértél Masszában, a kivel perbe szálltál Mériba vizeinél.

9 A ki azt mondta az õ atyjáról és anyjáról: Nem láttam õt; és az õ atyjafiait nem ismerte, fiaival sem gondolt; mert megtartották a te beszédedet, és ragaszkodtak szövetségedhez.

10 Tanítják a te végzéseidre Jákóbot, és a te törvényedre Izráelt; füstölõt tesznek a te orczád elé, és égõáldozatot a te oltárodra.

11 Áldd meg Uram az õ erejét, és az õ kezének munkája legyen kedves elõtted! Törd meg derekukat a reá támadóknak és az õ gyûlölõinek, hogy fel ne kelhessenek!

12 Benjáminról monda: Az Úrnak kedveltje! Bátorságban lakozik mellette, fedezi õt minden idõben, és az õ vállai között lakik.

13 Józsefrõl pedig monda: Áldott az Úrtól az õ földe az égnek kincseivel, a harmattal és az alant elterülõ mélységes vizekkel;

14 A nap érlelte drága terméssel, és a hold sarjasztotta drágaságokkal;

15 És az õs hegyek javaival, és az örök halmok drágaságaival;

16 A földnek drágaságaival és bõségével. A csipkebokorban lakozónak jó kedve szálljon Józsefnek fejére, az õ atyjafiai közül kiválasztottnak koponyájára!

17 Tehenének elsõ fajzása dicsõségére van; szarvai bivalyszarvak; népeket öklel azokkal mindenfelé a földnek széléig. És ezek Efraim tízezrei és Manassé ezrei.

18 És Zebulonról monda: Örvendj Zebulon a te kimentedben, és te Izsakhár a te sátraidban.

19 Népeket hívogatnak a hegyre, igaz áldozattal áldoznak ott; mert a tengerek bõségét szopják, és a fövénynek rejtett kincseit.

20 És Gádról monda: Áldott az, a ki kiterjeszti Gádot! Mint nõstény oroszlán, úgy lakik, és szétszaggat kart és koponyát.

21 Az elejét nézte ki magának, mert ott volt elrejtve a törvényadó osztályrésze. De elméne a népnek fejedelmeivel, az Úrnak igazságát cselekedte, és az õ végzését Izráellel együtt.

22 És Dánról monda: Dán oroszlánnak kölyke, a mely Básánból szökik ki.

23 És Nafthaliról monda: Ó Nafthali, a ki az Úrnak jó kedvével bõvölködöl és áldásával vagy teljes! Vedd birtokba a tengert és a délt.

24 És Áserrõl monda: Áldott a többi fiak felett Áser! Legyen az õ atyjafiai elõtt kedves, és áztassa lábát olajban.

25 Vas és réz legyenek a te záraid; és élteden át tartson erõd.

26 Nincs olyan, mint a Jesurun Istene! Az egeken száguld segítségedre, és fenségében a felhõkön.

27 Hajlék az örökkévaló Isten, alant vannak örökkévaló karjai; elûzi elõled az ellenséget, és ezt mondja: Pusztítsd!

28 És bátorságban lakozik Izráel, egymaga lesz Jákób forrása a gabona és a bor földén, és az õ egei harmatot csepegnek.

29 @Boldog vagy Izráel!] @Kicsoda olyan mint] @te? Nép, a kit az Úr véd, a te segítségednek pajzsa, és a ki a te dicsõségednek fegyvere! Hízelegnek majd néked a te ellenségeid, és te azoknak magaslatait taposod.

9420. 'And Moses went up into the mountain of God' means in the direction of heaven. This is clear from the meaning of Mount Sinai, to which 'the mountain of God' refers here, as the law or Divine Truth which comes from the Lord, thus the Word as it exists in heaven, and therefore also heaven itself, dealt with in 8399, 8753, 8793, 8805. The reason why the revelation took place on a mountain and why that mountain is called 'the mountain of God' is that 'the mountain' means the heavenly attribute of love, which is good, and consequently means heaven, and in the highest sense the Lord, 795, 796, 2722, 4210, 6435, 8327, and 'the mountain of God' means Divine Truth springing from the Divine Good of the Lord's Divine Love, 8758. For the Lord is called 'God' in the Word by virtue of Divine Truth, and 'Jehovah' by virtue of Divine Good, 2769, 2807, 2822, 3921(end), 4295, 4402, 7010, 7268, 8192, 8301, 8988, 9167. This is why the words the mountain of God are used.

[2] The fact that 'Mount Sinai' means the law or Divine Truth emanating from the Lord's Divine Good, and so means the Word, and in the highest sense the Lord, is clear in David,

The earth trembled, the heavens also dropped [rain] before God. This Sinai [trembled] before God, the God of Israel. The chariots of God are myriad on myriad, 1 thousands of peacemakers; the Lord is within them, Sinai is within the sanctuary. Psalms 68:8, 17.

'The earth' and 'the heavens' are the external and the internal dimensions of the Church, see 1733, 2117, 2118 (end), 3355, 4535, and 'a chariot' is doctrinal teachings, 2760, 5321, 8146, 8148, 8215, so that 'the chariots of God' are matters of doctrine or God's truths as they exist in heaven. From all this it is evident that 'this Sinai before God, the God of Israel' and 'Sinai within the sanctuary' mean the law or Divine Truth emanating from the Lord's Divine Good, and in the highest sense the Lord in heaven. In the Book of Judges,

O Jehovah, when You went forth from Seir, when You set out from the field of Edom, the earth trembled, the heavens also dropped, the clouds indeed dropped water, the mountains flowed down before Jehovah, this Sinai before Jehovah. Judges 5:4-5.

'This Sinai' again stands for Divine Truth emanating from the Lord's Divine Good. Similarly in Moses,

Jehovah came from Sinai, and dawned from Seir upon them; He shone from Mount Paran, and came out of myriads of holiness. From His right hand came a fiery law for them. Deuteronomy 33:2.

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.
