156. Internal Meaning of Ezekiel, Chapter 33

Of those who instruct and are instructed. (2)

1-5 Those who are instructed by the preacher concerning falsities and do not take heed, perish; (2, 11)

6-7 when the preacher sees falsities and does not give instruction concerning them, he perishes. (2)

8-9 The same is true of everyone who teaches doctrine, when he teaches and is not heard, or when he does not teach. (2, 3)

10-11 So now in the church, they must be taught in order that they may be converted, because the Lord wishes the salvation of all. (2)

12-16 If the evil man becomes good, His evil is forgiven; if the good man becomes evil, His good is not regarded. (2)

17-20 These things are Divine justice. (2, 3)

21-26 A perverted church declares that it is the church because it has the Word; nevertheless it falsifies the Word, worships another god and does evil, (2, 4)

27-29 and will perish by reason of falsities of evil, (3)

30-33 notwithstanding its hearing the Word, and being in external worship. (3)

Ezekiel 33:1-5

Studie

      

1 The word of Yahweh came to me, saying,

2 Son of man, speak to the children of your people, and tell them, When I bring the sword on a land, and the people of the land take a man from among them, and set him for their watchman;

3 if, when he sees the sword come on the land, he blow the trumpet, and warn the people;

4 then whoever hears the sound of the trumpet, and doesn't take warning, if the sword come, and take him away, his blood shall be on his own head.

5 He heard the sound of the trumpet, and didn't take warning; his blood shall be on him; whereas if he had taken warning, he would have delivered his soul.
