καὶ ἀναστήσεται ἐκ τῆς ῥίζης αὐτοῦ φυτὸν βασιλείας εἰς ἀνάστασιν ἀνὴρ τύπτων δόξαν βασιλέως καὶ ἐν ἡμέραις ἐσχάταις συντριβήσεται καὶ οὐκ ἐν ὀργῇ οὐδὲ ἐν πολέμῳ
Daniel 11:20
Isaiah 10
1
οὐαὶ τοῖς γράφουσιν πονηρίαν γράφοντες γὰρ πονηρίαν γράφουσιν
2
ἐκκλίνοντες κρίσιν πτωχῶν ἁρπάζοντες κρίμα πενήτων τοῦ λαοῦ μου ὥστε εἶναι αὐτοῖς χήραν εἰς ἁρπαγὴν καὶ ὀρφανὸν εἰς προνομήν
3
καὶ τί ποιήσουσιν ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῆς ἐπισκοπῆς ἡ γὰρ θλῖψις ὑμῖν πόρρωθεν ἥξει καὶ πρὸς τίνα καταφεύξεσθε τοῦ βοηθηθῆναι καὶ ποῦ καταλείψετε τὴν δόξαν ὑμῶν
4
τοῦ μὴ ἐμπεσεῖν εἰς ἐπαγωγήν ἐπὶ πᾶσι τούτοις οὐκ ἀπεστράφη ὁ θυμός ἀλλ' ἔτι ἡ χεὶρ ὑψηλή
5
οὐαὶ ἀσσυρίοις ἡ ῥάβδος τοῦ θυμοῦ μου καὶ ὀργῆς ἐστιν ἐν ταῖς χερσὶν αὐτῶν
6
τὴν ὀργήν μου εἰς ἔθνος ἄνομον ἀποστελῶ καὶ τῷ ἐμῷ λαῷ συντάξω ποιῆσαι σκῦλα καὶ προνομὴν καὶ καταπατεῖν τὰς πόλεις καὶ θεῖναι αὐτὰς εἰς κονιορτόν
7
αὐτὸς δὲ οὐχ οὕτως ἐνεθυμήθη καὶ τῇ ψυχῇ οὐχ οὕτως λελόγισται ἀλλὰ ἀπαλλάξει ὁ νοῦς αὐτοῦ καὶ τοῦ ἔθνη ἐξολεθρεῦσαι οὐκ ὀλίγα
8
καὶ ἐὰν εἴπωσιν αὐτῷ σὺ μόνος εἶ ἄρχων
9
καὶ ἐρεῖ οὐκ ἔλαβον τὴν χώραν τὴν ἐπάνω βαβυλῶνος καὶ χαλαννη οὗ ὁ πύργος ᾠκοδομήθη καὶ ἔλαβον ἀραβίαν καὶ δαμασκὸν καὶ σαμάρειαν
10
ὃν τρόπον ταύτας ἔλαβον ἐν τῇ χειρί μου καὶ πάσας τὰς ἀρχὰς λήμψομαι ὀλολύξατε τὰ γλυπτὰ ἐν ιερουσαλημ καὶ ἐν σαμαρείᾳ
11
ὃν τρόπον γὰρ ἐποίησα σαμαρείᾳ καὶ τοῖς χειροποιήτοις αὐτῆς οὕτως ποιήσω καὶ ιερουσαλημ καὶ τοῖς εἰδώλοις αὐτῆς
12
καὶ ἔσται ὅταν συντελέσῃ κύριος πάντα ποιῶν ἐν τῷ ὄρει σιων καὶ ἐν ιερουσαλημ ἐπάξει ἐπὶ τὸν νοῦν τὸν μέγαν τὸν ἄρχοντα τῶν ἀσσυρίων καὶ ἐπὶ τὸ ὕψος τῆς δόξης τῶν ὀφθαλμῶν αὐτοῦ
13
εἶπεν γάρ τῇ ἰσχύι ποιήσω καὶ τῇ σοφίᾳ τῆς συνέσεως ἀφελῶ ὅρια ἐθνῶν καὶ τὴν ἰσχὺν αὐτῶν προνομεύσω καὶ σείσω πόλεις κατοικουμένας
14
καὶ τὴν οἰκουμένην ὅλην καταλήμψομαι τῇ χειρὶ ὡς νοσσιὰν καὶ ὡς καταλελειμμένα ᾠὰ ἀρῶ καὶ οὐκ ἔστιν ὃς διαφεύξεταί με ἢ ἀντείπῃ μοι
15
μὴ δοξασθήσεται ἀξίνη ἄνευ τοῦ κόπτοντος ἐν αὐτῇ ἢ ὑψωθήσεται πρίων ἄνευ τοῦ ἕλκοντος αὐτόν ὡσαύτως ἐάν τις ἄρῃ ῥάβδον ἢ ξύλον
16
καὶ οὐχ οὕτως ἀλλὰ ἀποστελεῖ κύριος σαβαωθ εἰς τὴν σὴν τιμὴν ἀτιμίαν καὶ εἰς τὴν σὴν δόξαν πῦρ καιόμενον καυθήσεται
17
καὶ ἔσται τὸ φῶς τοῦ ισραηλ εἰς πῦρ καὶ ἁγιάσει αὐτὸν ἐν πυρὶ καιομένῳ καὶ φάγεται ὡσεὶ χόρτον τὴν ὕλην τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ
18
ἀποσβεσθήσεται τὰ ὄρη καὶ οἱ βουνοὶ καὶ οἱ δρυμοί καὶ καταφάγεται ἀπὸ ψυχῆς ἕως σαρκῶν καὶ ἔσται ὁ φεύγων ὡς ὁ φεύγων ἀπὸ φλογὸς καιομένης
19
καὶ οἱ καταλειφθέντες ἀπ' αὐτῶν ἔσονται ἀριθμός καὶ παιδίον γράψει αὐτούς
20
καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ οὐκέτι προστεθήσεται τὸ καταλειφθὲν ισραηλ καὶ οἱ σωθέντες τοῦ ιακωβ οὐκέτι μὴ πεποιθότες ὦσιν ἐπὶ τοὺς ἀδικήσαντας αὐτούς ἀλλὰ ἔσονται πεποιθότες ἐπὶ τὸν θεὸν τὸν ἅγιον τοῦ ισραηλ τῇ ἀληθείᾳ
21
καὶ ἔσται τὸ καταλειφθὲν τοῦ ιακωβ ἐπὶ θεὸν ἰσχύοντα
22
καὶ ἐὰν γένηται ὁ λαὸς ισραηλ ὡς ἡ ἄμμος τῆς θαλάσσης τὸ κατάλειμμα αὐτῶν σωθήσεται λόγον γὰρ συντελῶν καὶ συντέμνων ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ
23
ὅτι λόγον συντετμημένον ποιήσει ὁ θεὸς ἐν τῇ οἰκουμένῃ ὅλῃ
24
διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει κύριος σαβαωθ μὴ φοβοῦ ὁ λαός μου οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν σιων ἀπὸ ἀσσυρίων ὅτι ἐν ῥάβδῳ πατάξει σε πληγὴν γὰρ ἐγὼ ἐπάγω ἐπὶ σὲ τοῦ ἰδεῖν ὁδὸν αἰγύπτου
25
ἔτι γὰρ μικρὸν καὶ παύσεται ἡ ὀργή ὁ δὲ θυμός μου ἐπὶ τὴν βουλὴν αὐτῶν
26
καὶ ἐπεγερεῖ ὁ θεὸς ἐπ' αὐτοὺς κατὰ τὴν πληγὴν τὴν μαδιαμ ἐν τόπῳ θλίψεως καὶ ὁ θυμὸς αὐτοῦ τῇ ὁδῷ τῇ κατὰ θάλασσαν εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν τὴν κατ' αἴγυπτον
27
καὶ ἔσται ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἀφαιρεθήσεται ὁ φόβος αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ σοῦ καὶ ὁ ζυγὸς αὐτοῦ ἀπὸ τοῦ ὤμου σου καὶ καταφθαρήσεται ὁ ζυγὸς ἀπὸ τῶν ὤμων ὑμῶν
28
ἥξει γὰρ εἰς τὴν πόλιν αγγαι καὶ παρελεύσεται εἰς μαγεδω καὶ ἐν μαχμας θήσει τὰ σκεύη αὐτοῦ
29
καὶ παρελεύσεται φάραγγα καὶ ἥξει εἰς αγγαι φόβος λήμψεται ραμα πόλιν σαουλ φεύξεται
30
ἡ θυγάτηρ γαλλιμ ἐπακούσεται λαισα ἐπακούσεται αναθωθ
31
ἐξέστη μαδεβηνα καὶ οἱ κατοικοῦντες γιββιρ παρακαλεῖτε
32
σήμερον ἐν ὁδῷ τοῦ μεῖναι τῇ χειρὶ παρακαλεῖτε τὸ ὄρος τὴν θυγατέρα σιων καὶ οἱ βουνοὶ οἱ ἐν ιερουσαλημ
33
ἰδοὺ γὰρ ὁ δεσπότης κύριος σαβαωθ συνταράσσει τοὺς ἐνδόξους μετὰ ἰσχύος καὶ οἱ ὑψηλοὶ τῇ ὕβρει συντριβήσονται καὶ οἱ ὑψηλοὶ ταπεινωθήσονται
34
καὶ πεσοῦνται οἱ ὑψηλοὶ μαχαίρᾳ ὁ δὲ λίβανος σὺν τοῖς ὑψηλοῖς πεσεῖται
Arcana Coelestia # 7268
7268. 'See, I have made you a god to Pharaoh' means the law of God and the power it has over those steeped in falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'making you a god' as Divine Truth, or what amounts to the same thing, the Divine Law, and also the power it has, for in the Word when truth and also the power of truth are referred to the name 'God' appears, but when good is referred to the name 'Jehovah' does so, see 300, 2586, 2769, 2807, 2822, 3910, 3921 (end), 4287, 4295, 4402, 7010; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who are steeped in falsities and engage in molestation, dealt with in 6651, 6679, 6683. To pursue further the meaning of GOD, it should be recognized that in the highest sense 'God' is the Divine which is above the heavens, but that in the internal sense 'God' is the Divine which is within the heavens. The Divine which is above the heavens is Divine Good, whereas the Divine within the heavens is Divine Truth. For Divine Good is the source from which Divine Truth springs, and Divine Truth springing from Divine Good makes heaven and brings order into it. What is properly called heaven is nothing other than the Divine that has been given form there, for the angels in heaven are human forms receptive of the Divine, which together constitute an all-embracing form which is that of a Human Being.
[2] The use of 'God' in the Old Testament Word to mean Divine Truth within the heavens explains why the word for God in the original language is Elohim, a plural form. It also explains why the angels in heaven, being receivers of Divine Truth, are called 'gods', as in David,
Who in heaven will compare himself to Jehovah? Who will be likened to Jehovah among the sons of gods? Psalms 89:6-8.
In the same author,
Give to Jehovah, O sons of gods, give to Jehovah glory and strength. Psalms 29:1.
In the same author,
I said, You are gods, and sons of the Most High, all of you. Psalms 82:6.
In John,
Jesus said, Is it not written in your Law, I said, You are gods? If 1 He called them gods, with whom the Word of God came to be . . . John 10:34-35.
In addition there are those places in which the Lord is called 'God of gods' and 'Lord of lords', such as Genesis 46:2, 7; Deuteronomy 10:17; Numbers 16:22; Daniel 11:36; Psalms 136:2-3. From all this one may see in what sense Moses is called 'a god', here 'a god to Pharaoh' and in Exodus 4:16 'a god to Aaron' - that he was called such because Moses represented the Divine Law, which is Divine Truth and is called the Word. This also explains why here Aaron is called his 'prophet', and in a previous place his 'mouth', that is, one who declares in a way suitable for the understanding Divine Truth which comes forth directly from the Lord and surpasses all understanding And since a prophet is one who teaches and declares Divine Truth in a way suitable for the understanding, 'a prophet' also means the teachings of the Church, a subject dealt with in what follows next.
Poznámky pod čarou:
1. Reading si (if) which accords with the Greek and which Swedenborg has in another place where he quotes this verse, for sic (thus).
