Esodo 31

Studie

   

1 IL Signore parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo: Vedi, io ho chiamato per nome Besaleel,

2 figliuol di Uri, figliuol di Hur, della tribù di Giuda.

3 E l’ho ripieno dello spirito di Dio, in industria, e in ingegno, e in sapere, e in ogni artificio;

4 per far disegni da lavorare in oro, e in argento, e in rame;

5 e in arte di pietre da legare, e in arte di lavorar di legno, in qualunque lavorio.

6 Ed ecco, io gli ho aggiunto Oholiab, figliuol di Ahisamac, della tribù di Dan. Io ho oltre a ciò messa industria nell’animo d’ogni uomo industrioso, acciocchè facciano tutte le cose che io ti ho comandate.

7 Il Tabernacolo della convenenza, e l’Arca per la Testimonianza, e il Coperchio che ha da esser sopra essa, e tutti gli arredi del Tabernacolo.

8 E la Tavola, e i suoi strumenti; e il Candelliere puro, e tutti i suoi strumenti; e l’Altar de’ profumi.

9 E l’Altar degli olocausti, e tutti i suoi strumenti; e la Conca, e il suo piede.

10 E i vestimenti del servigio divino, e i vestimenti sacri del Sacerdote Aaronne, e i vestimenti dei suoi figliuoli, per esercitare il sacerdozio.

11 E l’olio dell’Unzione, e il profumo degli aromati per lo Santuario. Facciano interamente com’io ti ho comandato.

12 IL Signore parlò ancora a Mosè, dicendo:

13 E tu, parla a’ figliuoli di Israele, dicendo: Tuttavia osservate i miei Sabati; perciocchè il Sabato è un segnale fra me e voi, per le vostre età; acciocchè voi conosciate ch’io sono il Signore che vi santifico.

14 Osservate adunque il Sabato; perciocchè egli vi è un giorno santo; chiunque lo profanerà del tutto sia fatto morire; perciocchè qualunque persona farà in esso alcun lavoro, sarà ricisa d’infra i suoi popoli.

15 Lavorisi sei giorni, ma al settimo giorno è il Sabato del riposo, giorno sacro al Signore; chiunque farà lavoro alcuno nel giorno del Sabato, del tutto sia fatto morire.

16 Osservino adunque i figliuoli d’Israele il Sabato, per celebrarlo per le loro età, per patto perpetuo.

17 Esso è un segnale perpetuo fra me e i figliuoli d’Israele; conciossiachè il Signore abbia in sei giorni fatto il cielo e la terra; e nel settimo giorno cessò, e si riposò.

18 E dopo che il Signore ebbe finito di parlar con Mosè in sul monte di Sinai, egli gli diede le due Tavole della Testimonianza, Tavole di pietra, scritte col dito di Dio.

   


To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

10288. 'Shall be cut off from his people' means separation and spiritual death. This is clear from the meaning of 'being cut off', and of being put to death, as separation from those governed by good and by truths springing from it, and destruction of spiritual life, dealt with in 6767, 8902; and from the meaning of 'people' as those belonging to the Church in whom the truths and forms of the good of faith are present, dealt with in 3581, 4619, 6451, 6465, 7207. Thus 'being cut off from one's people' means being separated from them and being destroyed. In the Word those who belong to the Church are sometimes called a people, sometimes a nation, as in the expressions Israelite people and Jewish nation. The word 'people' there means those who belong to the spiritual Church, and 'nation' those who belong to the celestial Church; and this is the reason why 'peoples' means truths and forms of the good of faith, while 'nations' means forms of the good of love, see in the places referred to immediately above.

Arcana Coelestia # 6595

6595. 'And they embalmed him' means preservation still. This is clear from the meaning of 'embalming' as preservation from the corruption of evil, dealt with in 6503, 6504. Since the subject here is the end of the Church, let what is meant by preservation still be stated. When the Church comes to an end, which happens when its internal ceases to exist with a person, 6587, 6592, the external still remains. Yet that external is such that it still has an internal within it. This internal however does not exist at this time with that person because he does not have it in mind; and if he did think about it, he would not feel any affection for it. But it exists with the angels who are present with the person. And because the member of the Church which has undergone vastation has nothing of the internal in mind and feels no affection for it, and for the most part is unaware of its existence, the person cannot do the internal any harm. For a person can do harm to something when he has come to know, and especially once he has come to believe it, but not to what he either has no knowledge of or does not believe to exist. In this way the internal of the Church is preserved from contamination by any evil, and in the same way the inner realities of the Church were preserved among the descendants of Jacob. For they were so concerned with outer forms without their inner meaning that they did not even want to know about anything internal. Therefore the inner realities of the Church were not revealed to them.

Inner realities were not disclosed to the descendants of Jacob, lest they should do harm to them by profaning them, see 3398, 3480.

People who have no belief in the inner realities of the Church, and especially those who do not know about them, are unable to profane them, 593, 1008, 1059, 2051, 3398, 3401, 3898, 4289, 4601.

The more internal things of the Church are not revealed until the Church has undergone vastation, because once it has undergone it there is no longer any belief in them, and so they cannot be profaned, 3398, 3399.

These are the things that are meant by preservation.
