Exodus 7

Studie

   

1 Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen : Ecce constitui te Deum Pharaonis : et Aaron frater tuus erit propheta tuus.

2 Tu loqueris ei omnia quæ mando tibi : et ille loquetur ad Pharaonem, ut dimittat filios Israël de terra sua.

3 Sed ego indurabo cor ejus, et multiplicabo signa et ostenta mea in terra Ægypti,

4 et non audiet vos : immittamque manum meam super Ægyptum, et educam exercitum et populum meum filios Israël de terra Ægypti per judicia maxima.

5 Et scient Ægyptii quia ego sum Dominus qui extenderim manum meam super Ægyptum, et eduxerim filios Israël de medio eorum.

6 Fecit itaque Moyses et Aaron sicut præceperat Dominus : ita egerunt.

7 Erat autem Moyses octoginta annorum, et Aaron octoginta trium, quando locuti sunt ad Pharaonem.

8 Dixitque Dominus ad Moysen et Aaron :

9 Cum dixerit vobis Pharao, Ostendite signa : dices ad Aaron : Tolle virgam tuam, et projice eam coram Pharaone, ac vertetur in colubrum.

10 Ingressi itaque Moyses et Aaron ad Pharaonem, fecerunt sicut præceperat Dominus : tulitque Aaron virgam coram Pharaone et servis ejus, quæ versa est in colubrum.

11 Vocavit autem Pharao sapientes et maleficos : et fecerunt etiam ipsi per incantationes ægyptiacas et arcana quædam similiter.

12 Projeceruntque singuli virgas suas, quæ versæ sunt in dracones : sed devoravit virga Aaron virgas eorum.

13 Induratumque est cor Pharaonis, et non audivit eos, sicut præceperat Dominus.

14 Dixit autem Dominus ad Moysen : Ingravatum est cor Pharaonis : non vult dimittere populum.

15 Vade ad eum mane, ecce egredietur ad aquas : et stabis in occursum ejus super ripam fluminis : et virgam quæ conversa est in draconem, tolles in manu tua.

16 Dicesque ad eum : Dominus Deus Hebræorum misit me ad te, dicens : Dimitte populum meum ut sacrificet mihi in deserto : et usque ad præsens audire noluisti.

17 Hæc igitur dicit Dominus : In hoc scies quod sim Dominus : ecce percutiam virga, quæ in manu mea est, aquam fluminis, et vertetur in sanguinem.

18 Pisces quoque, qui sunt in fluvio, morientur, et computrescent aquæ, et affligentur Ægyptii bibentes aquam fluminis.

19 Dixit quoque Dominus ad Moysen : Dic ad Aaron : Tolle virgam tuam, et extende manum tuam super aquas Ægypti, et super fluvios eorum, et rivos ac paludes, et omnes lacus aquarum, ut vertantur in sanguinem : et sit cruor in omni terra Ægypti, tam in ligneis vasis quam in saxeis.

20 Feceruntque Moyses et Aaron sicut præceperat Dominus : et elevans virgam percussit aquam fluminis coram Pharaone et servis ejus : quæ versa est in sanguinem.

21 Et pisces, qui erant in flumine, mortui sunt : computruitque fluvius, et non poterant Ægyptii bibere aquam fluminis, et fuit sanguis in tota terra Ægypti.

22 Feceruntque similiter malefici Ægyptiorum incantationibus suis : et induratum est cor Pharaonis, nec audivit eos, sicut præceperat Dominus.

23 Avertitque se, et ingressus est domum suam, nec apposuit cor etiam hac vice.

24 Foderunt autem omnes Ægyptii per circuitum fluminis aquam ut biberent : non enim poterant bibere de aqua fluminis.

25 Impletique sunt septem dies, postquam percussit Dominus fluvium.

300. As regards the first arcanum, that 'Jehovah God' is used to mean the Lord and at the same time heaven, it should be recognized that in the Word, always for some hidden reason, the Lord is sometimes called simply Jehovah, sometimes Jehovah God, sometimes Jehovah and God interchangeably, sometimes the Lord Jehovah, sometimes the God of Israel, and sometimes simply God. In Genesis 1, for example, where again an utterance is made in the plural, 'Let Us make man in Our image', God is the only name used. Not until the next chapter, where the celestial man is the subject, is He called Jehovah God-Jehovah, because He alone has Being and is Living, and so from His essence; God, because of His ability to accomplish all things, and so from His power, as is clear in the Word where the two names are used separately, Isaiah 49:4-5; 55:7; Psalms 18:2, 28, 30-31; Psalms 38:15. Consequently any angel or spirit who spoke to a person, or who people thought had the ability to accomplish something, they called God, as is clear in David,

God stands in the assembly of God, in the midst of the Gods will He judge. Psalms 82:1.

And elsewhere in David,

Who in the sky will be compared to Jehovah? Who will be likened to Jehovah among the sons of gods? Psalms 89:6.

And elsewhere in the same,

Confess the God of Gods; confess the Lord of lords. Psalms 136:2-3

It is from power that even men are called 'gods', as in Psalms 82:6; John 10:34-35. And Moses is spoken of as 'a god to Pharaoh', Exodus 7:1. And this also is why [in Hebrew] the word for God, Elohim, is plural. But because angels have no power whatsoever from themselves, as they themselves also confess, but from the Lord only, and as there is but one God, Jehovah God is therefore used in the Word to mean the Lord alone. Yet when anything is accomplished through the ministry of angels He is spoken of in the plural, as in Genesis 1. In the present chapter too, since a celestial man, as man, did not bear comparison with the Lord, but with angels, it is therefore said that 'the man has become as one of Us in knowing good and evil', that is, become someone wise and having intelligence.
