出エジプト記 33

Studie

   

1 さて、モーセに言われた、「あなたと、あなたがエジプトから導きのぼった民とは、ここを立ってわたしがアブラハム、イサク、ヤコブに誓って、『これをあなたの子孫に与える』と言った地にのぼりなさい。

2 わたしはひとりの使をつかわしてあなたに先立たせ、カナンびと、アモリびと、ヘテびと、ペリジびと、ヒビびと、エブスびとを追い払うであろう。

3 あなたがたは乳と蜜の流れる地にのぼりなさい。しかし、あなたがたは、かたくなな民であるから、わたしが道であなたがたを滅ぼすことのないように、あなたがたのうちにあって一緒にはのぼらないであろう」。

4 民はこの悪い知らせを聞いて憂い、ひとりもその飾りを身に着ける者はなかった。

5 モーセに言われた、「イスラエルの人々に言いなさい、『あなたがたは、かたくなな民である。もしわたしが一刻でも、あなたがたのうちにあって、一緒にのぼって行くならば、あなたがたを滅ぼすであろう。ゆえに、今、あなたがたの飾りを身から取り去りなさい。そうすればわたしはあなたがたになすべきことを知るであろう』」。

6 それで、イスラエルの人々はホレブ以来その飾りを取り除いていた。

7 モーセ幕屋を取って、これを宿営の外に、宿営を離れて張り、これを会見の幕屋と名づけた。すべてに伺い事のある者は出て、宿営の外にある会見の幕屋に行った。

8 モーセが出て、幕屋に行く時には、民はみな立ちあがり、モーセ幕屋にはいるまで、おのおのその天幕の入口に立って彼を見送った。

9 モーセ幕屋にはいると、が下って幕屋の入口に立った。そしてモーセと語られた。

10 民はみな幕屋の入口にが立つのを見ると、立っておのおの自分の天幕の入口で礼拝した。

11 人がその友と語るように、モーセを合わせて語られた。こうしてモーセは宿営に帰ったが、その従者なる若者、ヌンのヨシュアは幕屋を離れなかった。

12 モーセに言った、「ごらんください。あなたは『この民を導きのぼれ』とわたしに言いながら、わたしと一緒につかわされる者を知らせてくださいません。しかも、あなたはかつて『わたしはお前を選んだ。お前はまたわたしの前に恵みを得た』と仰せになりました。

13 それで今、わたしがもし、あなたの前に恵みを得ますならば、どうか、あなたの道を示し、あなたをわたしに知らせ、あなたの前に恵みを得させてください。また、この民があなたの民であることを覚えてください」。

14 主は言われた「わたし自身が一緒に行くであろう。そしてあなたに安息を与えるであろう」。

15 モーセは主に言った「もしあなた自身が一緒に行かれないならば、わたしたちをここからのぼらせないでください。

16 わたしとあなたの民とが、あなたの前に恵みを得ることは、何によって知られましょうか。それはあなたがわたしたちと一緒に行かれて、わたしとあなたの民とが、地のにある諸民と異なるものになるからではありませんか」。

17 モーセに言われた、「あなたはわたしの前に恵みを得、またわたしは名をもってあなたを知るから、あなたの言ったこの事をもするであろう」。

18 モーセは言った、「どうぞ、あなたの栄光をわたしにお示しください」。

19 は言われた、「わたしはわたしのもろもろの善をあなたのに通らせ、主の名をあなたのにのべるであろう。わたしは恵もうとする者を恵み、あわれもうとする者をあわれむ」。

20 また言われた、「しかし、あなたはわたしの見ることはできない。わたしを見て、なお生きている人はないからである」。

21 そしては言われた、「見よ、わたしのかたわらに一つの所がある。あなたはの上に立ちなさい。

22 わたしの栄光がそこを通り過ぎるとき、わたしはあなたをの裂け目に入れて、わたしが通り過ぎるまで、手であなたをおおうであろう。

23 そしてわたしが手をのけるとき、あなたはわたしのうしろを見るが、わたしのは見ないであろう」。

10580. 'And Jehovah said, Behold, there is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock' means a state of faith in God. This is clear from the meaning of 'a place' as a state, dealt with in 2625, 2837, 3356, 3387, 4321, 4882, 5605, 7381, 9440, 9967, 10146; and from the meaning of 'the rock' as faith, dealt with in 8581, 10438, the reason why a state of faith in God is meant being that the words 'a place by Me' are used. No one can know except from the internal sense that this is the meaning of these words, thus unless he knows what it is that 'a place' means and what it is that 'the rock' means in that sense. But for the internal sense what would the declaration that there was a place by Jehovah on the rock mean? It would mean that Jehovah dwelt there and was providing Moses a place by Him; but in fact Jehovah dwells in heaven among angels, and in the Church among people. The meaning of 'the rock' as faith has its origin in the things that appear in the next life; those ruled by faith dwell there on rocks, but those governed by love dwell on mountains. The rocks there are stony in appearance; but not so the mountains, because they are raised up masses of earth. This is where the meaning of 'the rock' as faith comes from.

Genesis 22

Studie

   

1 It happened after these things, that God tested Abraham, and said to him, "Abraham!" He said, "Here I am."

2 He said, "Now take your son, your only son, whom you love, even Isaac, and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there for a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of."

3 Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him.

4 On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off.

5 Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go yonder. We will worship, and come back to you."

6 Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. He took in his hand the fire and the knife. They both went together.

7 Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, "My father?" He said, "Here I am, my son." He said, "Here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?"

8 Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they both went together.

9 They came to the place which God had told him of. Abraham built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, on the wood.

10 Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.

11 The angel of Yahweh called to him out of the sky, and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" He said, "Here I am."

12 He said, "Don't lay your hand on the boy, neither do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me."

13 Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and saw that behind him was a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering instead of his son.

14 Abraham called the name of that place Yahweh Will Provide. As it is said to this day, "On Yahweh's mountain, it will be provided."

15 The angel of Yahweh called to Abraham a second time out of the sky,

16 and said, "I have sworn by myself, says Yahweh, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son,

17 that I will bless you greatly, and I will multiply your seed greatly like the stars of the heavens, and like the sand which is on the seashore. Your seed will possess the gate of his enemies.

18 In your seed will all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice."

19 So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.

20 It happened after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, "Behold, Milcah, she also has borne children to your brother Nahor:

21 Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram,

22 Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel."

23 Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother.

24 His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bore Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.
