Exodus 5

Studie

   

1 Post hæc ingressi sunt Moyses et Aaron, et dixerunt Pharaoni : Hæc dicit Dominus Deus Israël : Dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi in deserto.

2 At ille respondit : Quis est Dominus, ut audiam vocem ejus, et dimittam Israël ? nescio Dominum, et Israël non dimittam.

3 Dixeruntque : Deus Hebræorum vocavit nos, ut eamus viam trium dierum in solitudinem, et sacrificemus Domino Deo nostro : ne forte accidat nobis pestis aut gladius.

4 Ait ad eos rex Ægypti : Quare Moyses et Aaron sollicitatis populum ab operibus suis ? ite ad onera vestra.

5 Dixitque Pharao : Multus est populus terræ : videtis quod turba succreverit : quanto magis si dederitis eis requiem ab operibus ?

6 Præcepit ergo in die illo præfectis operum et exactoribus populi, dicens :

7 Nequaquam ultra dabitis paleas populo ad conficiendos lateres, sicut prius : sed ipsi vadant, et colligant stipulas.

8 Et mensuram laterum, quam prius faciebant, imponetis super eos, nec minuetis quidquam : vacant enim, et idcirco vociferantur, dicentes : Eamus, et sacrificemus Deo nostro.

9 Opprimantur operibus, et expleant ea : ut non acquiescant verbis mendacibus.

10 Igitur egressi præfecti operum et exactores ad populum, dixerunt : Sic dicit Pharao : Non do vobis paleas :

11 ite, et colligite sicubi invenire poteritis, nec minuetur quidquam de opere vestro.

12 Dispersusque est populus per omnem terram Ægypti ad colligendas paleas.

13 Præfecti quoque operum instabant, dicentes : Complete opus vestrum quotidie, ut prius facere solebatis quando dabantur vobis paleæ.

14 Flagellatique sunt qui præerant operibus filiorum Israël, ab exactoribus Pharaonis, dicentibus : Quare non impletis mensuram laterum sicut prius, nec heri, nec hodie ?

15 Veneruntque præpositi filiorum Israël, et vociferati sunt ad Pharaonem dicentes : Cur ita agis contra servos tuos ?

16 paleæ non dantur nobis, et lateres similiter imperantur : en famuli tui flagellis cædimur, et injuste agitur contra populum tuum.

17 Qui ait : Vacatis otio, et idcirco dicitis : Eamus, et sacrificemus Domino.

18 Ite ergo, et operamini : paleæ non dabuntur vobis, et reddetis consuetum numerum laterum.

19 Videbantque se præpositi filiorum Israël in malo, eo quod diceretur eis : Non minuetur quidquam de lateribus per singulos dies.

20 Occurreruntque Moysi et Aaron, qui stabant ex adverso, egredientibus a Pharaone :

21 et dixerunt ad eos : Videat Dominus et judicet, quoniam fœtere fecistis odorem nostrum coram Pharaone et servis ejus, et præbuistis ei gladium, ut occideret nos.

22 Reversusque est Moyses ad Dominum, et ait : Domine, cur afflixisti populum istum ? quare misisti me ?

23 ex eo enim quo ingressus sum ad Pharaonem ut loquerer in nomine tuo, afflixit populum tuum : et non liberasti eos.

7194. 'And by My name Jehovah I was not known to them' means that in a state involving temptations those who belonged to the spiritual Church gave no thought to Divine things that the Church possesses. This is clear from the meaning of 'the name of Jehovah' as everything in its entirety by which God is worshipped, dealt with in 2724, 3006, 6674, thus everything Divine within the Church ('the name of Jehovah' is used strictly speaking to mean the Lord's Divine Human, 2628, 6887, and since the whole of faith and the whole of love, which are the Divine things within the Church, come through and from His Divine Human, everything in its entirety composing Divine worship is meant by that Human); and from the meaning of 'not being known' as a situation in which people have no knowledge of, that is, give no thought to those things - Divine things within the Church - that is to say, during a state involving temptations, which are meant by 'God Shaddai'. That is the reason why it says that He was known to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, but not by His name Jehovah. This is the internal sense of these words; but the external or historical sense is different. From this sense it becomes clear that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob did not worship Jehovah but God Shaddai, see 1992, 3667, 5628, and that Abraham did not know Jehovah, 1756, 2559. Yet the name Jehovah appears in the historical narratives concerning Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; and the reasons for this are that this part of the Word was written by Moses, to whom Jehovah's name was made known, and that Jehovah's name is used in those historical narratives for the sake of the internal sense. For throughout the Word Jehovah is used when the good of love is referred to, but God when the truth of faith is referred to, 709, 732, 1096, 2586, 2769, 2807, 2822, 3921 (end), 4402.
