Studie

   

1 여호와께서 아론에게 이르시되 너와 네 아들들과 네 종족은 성소에 대한 죄를 함께 담당할 것이요 너와 네 아들들은 너희가 그 제사장 직분에 대한 죄를 함께 담당할 것이니라

2 너는 네 형제 레위 지파 곧 네 조상의 지파를 데려다가 너와 합동시켜 너를 섬기게 하고 너와 네 아들들은 증거의 장막앞에 있을 것이니라

3 레위인은 네 직무와 장막의 모든 직무를 지키려니와 성소의 기구와 단에는 가까이 못하리니 두렵건대 그들과 너희가 죽을까 하노라

4 레위인은 너와 합동하여 장막의 모든 일과 회막의 직무를 지킬 것이요 외인은 너희에게 가까이 못할 것이니라

5 이와 같이 너희는 성소의 직무와 단의 직무를 지키라 ! 그리하면 여호와의 진노가 다시는 이스라엘 자손에게 미치지 아니하리라

6 보라, 내가 이스라엘 자손 중에서 너희 형제 레위인을 취하여 내게 돌리고 너희에게 선물로 주어 회막의 일을 하게 하였나니

7 너와 네 아들들은 단과 장 안의 모든 일에 대하여 제사장의 직분을 지켜 섬기라 ! 내가 제사장의 직분을 너희에게 선물로 주었은즉 거기 가까이 하는 외인은 죽이울지니라

8 여호와께서 또 아론에게 이르시되 보라, 내가 내 거제물 곧 이스라엘 자손의 거룩하게 한 모든 예물을 너로 주관하게 하고 네가 기름부음을 받았음을 인하여 그것을 너와 네 아들들에게 영영한 응식으로 주노라

9 지성물 중에 불사르지 않은 것은 네 것이라 그들이 내게 드리는 모든 예물의 모든 소제와 속죄제와 속건 제물은 다 지극히 거룩한즉 너와 네 아들들에게 돌리리니

10 지극히 거룩하게 여김으로 먹으라 이는 네게 성물인즉 남자들이 다 먹을지니라

11 내게 돌릴 것이 이것이니 곧 이스라엘 자손의 드리는 거제물과 모든 요제물이라 내가 그것을 너와 네 자손에게 영영한 응식으로 주었은즉 네 집의 정결한 자마다 먹을 것이니라

12 그들이 여호와께 드리는 첫 소산 곧 제일 좋은 기름과, 제일 좋은 포도주와, 곡식을 네게 주었은즉

13 그들이 여호와께 드리는 그 땅 처음 익은 모든 열매는 네 것이니 네 집에 정결한 자마다 먹을 것이라

14 이스라엘 중에서 특별히 드린 모든 것은 네 것이 되리라 !

15 여호와께 드리는 모든 생물의 처음 나는 것은 사람이나 짐승이나 다 네 것이로되 사람의 처음 난 것은 반드시 대속할 것이요 부정한 짐승의 처음 난 것도 대속할 것이며

16 그 사람을 속할 때에는 난지 일개월 이후에 네가 정한 대로 성소의 세겔을 따라 은 다섯 세겔로 속하라 한 세겔은 이십 게라니라

17 오직 소의 처음 난 것이나 양의 처음 난 것이나 염소의 처음 난것은 속하지 말지니 그것들은 거룩한즉 그 피는 단에 뿌리고 그 기름은 불살라 여호와께 향기로운 화제로 드릴 것이며

18 그 고기는 네게 돌릴지니 흔든 가슴과 우편 넓적다리 같이 네게 돌릴 것이니라

19 이스라엘 자손이 여호와께 거제로 드리는 모든 성물은 내가 영영한 응식으로 너와 네 자녀에게 주노니 이는 여호와 앞에 너와 네 후손에게 변하지 않는 소금 언약이니라

20 여호와께서 또 아론에게 이르시되 너는 이스라엘 자손의 땅의 기업도 없겠고 그들 중에 아무 분깃도 없을 것이나 나는 이스라엘 자손 중에 네 분깃이요 네 기업이니라

21 내가 이스라엘의 십일조를 레위 자손에게 기업으로 다 주어서 그들의 하는 일 곧 회막에서 하는 일을 갚나니

22 이후로는 이스라엘 자손이 회막에 가까이 말 것이라 죄를 당하여 죽을까 하노라

23 오직 레위인은 회막에서 봉사하며 자기들의 죄를 담당할 것이요 이스라엘 자손 중에는 기업이 없을 것이니 이는 너희의 대대에 영원한 율례라

24 이스라엘 자손이 여호와께 거제로 드리는 십일조를 레위인에게 기업으로 준 고로 내가 그들에 대하여 말하기를 이스라엘 자손 중에 기업이 없을 것이라 하였노라

25 여호와께서 모세에게 일러 가라사대

26 너는 레위인에게 고하여 그에게 이르라 내가 이스라엘 자손에게 취하여 너희에게 기업으로 준 십일조를 너희가 그들에게서 취할 때에 그 십일조의 십일조를 거제로 여호와께 드릴 것이라

27 내가 너희의 거제물을 타작 마당에서 받드는 곡물과 포도즙 틀에서 받드는 즙같이 여기리니

28 너희는 이스라엘 자손에게서 받는 모든 것의 십일조 중에서 여호와께 거제로 드리고 여호와께 드린 그 거제물은 제사장 아론에게 돌리되

29 너희의 받은 모든 예물 중에서 너희는 그 아름다운 것 곧 거룩하게 한 부분을 취하여 여호와께 거제로 드릴지니라

30 이러므로 너는 그들에게 이르라 너희가 그 중에서 아름다운 것을 취하여 드리고 남은 것은 너희 레위인에게는 타작 마당의 소출과 포도즙 틀의 소출같이 되리니

31 너희와 너희 권속이 어디서든지 이것을 먹을 수 있음은 이는 회막에서 일한 너희의 보수임이니라

32 너희가 그 중 아름다운 것을 받들어 드린즉 이로 인하여 죄를 지지 아니할 것이라 너희는 이스라엘 자손의 성물을 더럽히지 말라 ! 그리하면 죽지 아니하리라

2916. Give me a possession of a sepulcher with you. That this signifies that they can be regenerated, is evident from the signification of a “sepulcher,” which in the internal sense of the Word signifies life or heaven, and in the opposite sense death or hell. That it signifies life or heaven, is because the angels, who are in the internal sense of the Word, have no idea of a sepulcher because they have none of death; and therefore instead of a sepulcher they perceive nothing else than continuation of life, and thus resurrection-for man rises again as to his spirit, and is buried as to his body (see n. 1854). And because “burial” signifies resurrection, it also signifies regeneration, for regeneration is man’s first resurrection, as he then dies in respect to the former man, and rises again as to the new. By regeneration a man from being dead becomes alive; hence comes the signification of a “sepulcher” in the internal sense. That the idea of regeneration occurs to the angels when the idea of a sepulcher is presented is plain also from what was said above about little children (n. 2299).

[2] That in the opposite sense a “sepulcher” signifies death or hell is because the evil do not rise again into life; and therefore when the evil are treated of and a sepulcher is mentioned, no other idea then occurs to the angels than that of hell; this is the reason why hell in the Word is also called a “sepulcher.”

[3] That a “sepulcher” signifies resurrection, and also regeneration is plain in Ezekiel:

Therefore prophesy, and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord Jehovih, Behold I will open your sepulchers, and cause you to come up out of your sepulchers, O My people; and I will bring you to the ground of Israel. And ye shall know that I am Jehovah, when I have opened your sepulchers, and caused you to come up out of your sepulchers, O My people; and shall put My spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you on your own ground (Ezekiel 37:12-14); where the Prophet treats of the bones that were made to live, and in the internal sense of regeneration. That he treats of regeneration is plainly evident, for it is said, “when I shall put My spirit in you and ye shall live, and I shall place you on your own ground.” “Sepulchers” here denote the former man and his evils and falsities, to “open,” and to “come up out of” which is to be regenerated. Thus the idea of a sepulcher perishes and is as it were put off, when the idea of regeneration or of the new life comes in.

[4] That the sepulchers were opened, and many bodies of the saints that were sleeping arose and went forth out of their sepulchers after the Lord’s resurrection, and entered into the holy city, and appeared unto many (Matthew 27:52-53), involves what is similar, namely resurrection because of the Lord’s resurrection, and in a more interior sense every resurrection. That the Lord raised Lazarus from the dead (John 11:1 and the following verses) also involves the raising up of a new church from the Gentiles; for all the miracles wrought by the Lord, because they were Divine, involved states of His church. The signification also is similar where it is said that the man who was cast into the sepulcher of Elisha, when he touched his bones, revived (2 Kings 13:20-21); for by Elisha was represented the Lord.

[5] As “burial” signified resurrection in general, and every resurrection, therefore the ancients were very solicitous about their burials and the places where they should be buried-as Abraham, that he should be buried in Hebron in the land of Canaan; also Isaac and Jacob, with their wives (Genesis 47:29-31; 49:30-32); and Joseph, that his bones should be carried from Egypt into the land of Canaan (Genesis 50:25; Exodus 13:19; Josh. 24:32); David, and the kings who came after him, that they should be buried in Zion (1 Kings 2:10; 11:43; 14:31; 15:8, 24; 22:50; 2 Kings 8:24; 12:21; 14:20; 15:7, 38; 16:20). The reason of this was that the land of Canaan and Zion represented and signified the Lord’s kingdom, and burial represented and signified resurrection; but that the place effects nothing in regard to resurrection must be evident to everyone.

[6] That “burial” signifies resurrection to life is also plain from other representatives as that there should be no wailing for the wicked, and that they should not be buried but cast out (Jeremiah 8:2; 14:16; 16:4, 6; 20:6; 22:19; 25:33; 2 Kings 9:10; Revelation 11:9); and that wicked persons who had been buried should be cast forth from their sepulchers (Jeremiah 8:1-2; 2 Kings 23:16-18). In the opposite sense however, a “sepulcher” signifies death or hell (see Isaiah 14:19-21; Ezekiel 32:21-23, 25, 27; Psalms 88:5-6, 11-12; Numbers 19:16, 18-19).

Ezekiel 37

Studie

   

1 The hand of Yahweh was on me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of Yahweh, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones.

2 He caused me to pass by them all around: and behold, there were very many in the open valley; and behold, they were very dry.

3 He said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? I answered, Lord Yahweh, you know.

4 Again he said to me, Prophesy over these bones, and tell them, you dry bones, hear the word of Yahweh.

5 Thus says the Lord Yahweh to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.

6 I will lay sinews on you, and will bring up flesh on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am Yahweh.

7 So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, an earthquake; and the bones came together, bone to its bone.

8 I saw, and, behold, there were sinews on them, and flesh came up, and skin covered them above; but there was no breath in them.

9 Then he said to me, Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and tell the wind, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Come from the four winds, breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live.

10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up on their feet, an exceedingly great army.

11 Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off.

12 Therefore prophesy, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.

13 You shall know that I am Yahweh, when I have opened your graves, and caused you to come up out of your graves, my people.

14 I will put my Spirit in you, and you shall live, and I will place you in your own land: and you shall know that I, Yahweh, have spoken it and performed it, says Yahweh.

15 The word of Yahweh came again to me, saying,

16 You, son of man, take one stick, and write on it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his companions: then take another stick, and write on it, For Joseph, the stick of Ephraim, and [for] all the house of Israel his companions:

17 and join them for you one to another into one stick, that they may become one in your hand.

18 When the children of your people shall speak to you, saying, Will you not show us what you mean by these?

19 tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will take the stick of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim, and the tribes of Israel his companions; and I will put them with it, [even] with the stick of Judah, and make them one stick, and they shall be one in my hand.

20 The sticks whereon you write shall be in your hand before their eyes.

21 Say to them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, where they are gone, and will gather them on every side, and bring them into their own land:

22 and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king to them all; and they shall be no more two nations, neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at all;

23 neither shall they defile themselves any more with their idols, nor with their detestable things, nor with any of their transgressions; but I will save them out of all their dwelling places, in which they have sinned, and will cleanse them: so shall they be my people, and I will be their God.

24 My servant David shall be king over them; and they all shall have one shepherd: they shall also walk in my ordinances, and observe my statutes, and do them.

25 They shall dwell in the land that I have given to Jacob my servant, in which your fathers lived; and they shall dwell therein, they, and their children, and their children's children, forever: and David my servant shall be their prince for ever.

26 Moreover I will make a covenant of peace with them; it shall be an everlasting covenant with them; and I will place them, and multiply them, and will set my sanctuary in the midst of them forevermore.

27 My tent also shall be with them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

28 The nations shall know that I am Yahweh who sanctifies Israel, when my sanctuary shall be in the midst of them forevermore.
