2 Mózes 20

Studie

   

1 És szólá Isten mindezeket az igéket, mondván:

2 Én, az Úr, vagyok a te Istened, a ki kihoztalak téged Égyiptomnak földérõl, a szolgálat házából.

3 Ne legyenek néked idegen isteneid én elõttem.

4 Ne csinálj magadnak faragott képet, és semmi hasonlót azokhoz, a melyek fenn az égben, vagy a melyek alant a földön, vagy a melyek a vizekben a föld alatt vannak.

5 Ne imádd és ne tiszteld azokat; mert én, az Úr a te Istened, féltõn- szeretõ Isten vagyok, a ki megbüntetem az atyák vétkét a fiakban, harmad és negyediziglen, a kik engem gyûlölnek.

6 De irgalmasságot cselekszem ezeriziglen azokkal, a kik engem szeretnek, és az én parancsolatimat megtartják.

7 Az Úrnak a te Istenednek nevét hiába fel ne vedd; mert nem hagyja azt az Úr büntetés nélkül, a ki az õ nevét hiába felveszi.

8 Megemlékezzél a szombatnapról, hogy megszenteljed azt.

9 Hat napon át munkálkodjál, és végezd minden dolgodat;

10 De a hetedik nap az Úrnak a te Istenednek szombatja: semmi dolgot se tégy azon se magad, se fiad, se leányod, [se] szolgád, se szolgálóleányod, se barmod, se jövevényed, a ki a te kapuidon belõl van;

11 Mert hat napon teremté az Úr az eget és a földet, a tengert és mindent, a mi azokban van, a hetedik napon pedig megnyugovék. Azért megáldá az Úr a szombat napját, és megszentelé azt.

12 Tiszteld atyádat és anyádat, hogy hosszú ideig élj azon a földön, a melyet az Úr a te Istened ád te néked.

13 Ne ölj.

14 Ne paráználkodjál.

15 Ne lopj.

16 Ne tégy a te felebarátod ellen hamis tanúbizonyságot.

17 Ne kívánd a te felebarátodnak házát. Ne kívánd a te felebarátodnak feleségét, se szolgáját, se szolgálóleányát, se ökrét, se szamarát, és semmit, a mi a te felebarátodé.

18 Az egész nép pedig látja vala a mennydörgéseket, a villámlásokat, a kürt zengését és a hegy füstölgését. És látja vala a nép, és megrémüle, és hátrább álla.

19 És mondának Mózesnek: Te beszélj velünk, és mi hallgatunk; de az Isten ne beszéljen velünk, hogy meg ne haljunk.

20 Mózes pedig monda a népnek: Ne féljetek; mert azért jött az Isten, hogy titeket megkísértsen, és hogy az õ félelme legyen elõttetek, hogy ne vétkezzetek.

21 Távol álla azért a nép, Mózes pedig közelebb méne a felhõhöz, melyben az Isten vala.

22 És monda az Úr Mózesnek: Ezt mondd az Izráel fiainak: Magatok láttátok, hogy az égbõl beszéltem veletek.

23 Ne csináljatok én mellém ezüst isteneket, és arany isteneket se csináljatok magatoknak.

24 Földbõl csinálj nékem oltárt, és azon áldozd a te égõ- és hálaáldozatodat, juhaidat és ökreidet. Valamely helyen akarom, hogy az én nevemrõl megemlékezzetek, elmegyek tehozzád és megáldalak téged.

25 Ha pedig kövekbõl csinálsz nékem oltárt, ne építsd azt faragott [kõ]bõl: mert a mint faragó vasadat rávetetted, megfertõztetted azt.

26 Lépcsõkön se menj fel az én oltáromhoz, hogy a te szemérmed fel ne fedeztessék azon.

10543. 'At Mount Horeb' means within the external things of worship, the Church, and the Word. This is clear from the meaning of 'Mount Horeb' as Divine Truth present in external things. For Horeb was the mountainous region surrounding Mount Sinai, and 'Mount Sinai' means Divine Truth; consequently 'Horeb', being the mountainous region round about, means Divine Truth present in external things. For what is in the middle and higher than the outlying parts around it means that which is internal, and therefore what is around and below it means that which is external.

'Mount Sinai' means Divine Truth, see 8805, 9420.

The middle means that which is internal, 1074, 2940, 2973, 5897, 6084, 6103, 9164, and so does what is high, 2148, 4210, 4599, 9489, 9773, 10181.

What is round about means that which is external, 2973, and so does what is below.

Since the people's interest lay in external things and not in what was internal, when the Law was declared from Mount Sinai they stood in Horeb at the foot of the mountain, and the mountain was fenced off all the way round to prevent the people from touching it, Exodus 19:12-13, 21, 23-24; 20:21; Deuteronomy 4:10-12. The external of worship, the Church, and the Word is spoken of because the external of one is the external of another; for worship is performed by the Church, and the Church's truths and forms of good, and its worship, are derived from the Word. Those therefore who are interested in only the external things of worship and the Church are interested in only the external things of the Word.

Exodus 33

Studie

   

1 And the LORD said unto Moses, Depart, and go up hence, thou and the people which thou hast brought up out of the land of Egypt, unto the land which I sware unto Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, saying, Unto thy seed will I give it:

2 And I will send an angel before thee; and I will drive out the Canaanite, the Amorite, and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite:

3 Unto a land flowing with milk and honey: for I will not go up in the midst of thee; for thou art a stiffnecked people: lest I consume thee in the way.

4 And when the people heard these evil tidings, they mourned: and no man did put on him his ornaments.

5 For the LORD had said unto Moses, Say unto the children of Israel, Ye are a stiffnecked people: I will come up into the midst of thee in a moment, and consume thee: therefore now put off thy ornaments from thee, that I may know what to do unto thee.

6 And the children of Israel stripped themselves of their ornaments by the mount Horeb.

7 And Moses took the tabernacle, and pitched it without the camp, afar off from the camp, and called it the tabernacle of the congregation. And it came to pass, that every one which sought the LORD went out unto the tabernacle of the congregation, which was without the camp.

8 And it came to pass, when Moses went out unto the tabernacle, that all the people rose up, and stood every man at his tent door, and looked after Moses, until he was gone into the tabernacle.

9 And it came to pass, as Moses entered into the tabernacle, the cloudy pillar descended, and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the LORD talked with Moses.

10 And all the people saw the cloudy pillar stand at the tabernacle door: and all the people rose up and worshipped, every man in his tent door.

11 And the LORD spake unto Moses face to face, as a man speaketh unto his friend. And he turned again into the camp: but his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, departed not out of the tabernacle.

12 And Moses said unto the LORD, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight.

13 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, shew me now thy way, that I may know thee, that I may find grace in thy sight: and consider that this nation is thy people.

14 And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.

15 And he said unto him, If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.

16 For wherein shall it be known here that I and thy people have found grace in thy sight? is it not in that thou goest with us? so shall we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people that are upon the face of the earth.

17 And the LORD said unto Moses, I will do this thing also that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace in my sight, and I know thee by name.

18 And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.

19 And he said, I will make all my goodness pass before thee, and I will proclaim the name of the LORD before thee; and will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will shew mercy on whom I will shew mercy.

20 And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.

21 And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock:

22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by:

23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen.
