Exodus 1

Studie

1 ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν ισραηλ τῶν εἰσπεπορευμένων εἰς αἴγυπτον ἅμα ιακωβ τῷ πατρὶ αὐτῶν ἕκαστος πανοικίᾳ αὐτῶν εἰσήλθοσαν

2 ρουβην συμεων λευι ιουδας

3 ισσαχαρ ζαβουλων καὶ βενιαμιν

4 δαν καὶ νεφθαλι γαδ καὶ ασηρ

5 ιωσηφ δὲ ἦν ἐν αἰγύπτῳ ἦσαν δὲ πᾶσαι ψυχαὶ ἐξ ιακωβ πέντε καὶ ἑβδομήκοντα

6 ἐτελεύτησεν δὲ ιωσηφ καὶ πάντες οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ πᾶσα ἡ γενεὰ ἐκείνη

7 οἱ δὲ υἱοὶ ισραηλ ηὐξήθησαν καὶ ἐπληθύνθησαν καὶ χυδαῖοι ἐγένοντο καὶ κατίσχυον σφόδρα σφόδρα ἐπλήθυνεν δὲ ἡ γῆ αὐτούς

8 ἀνέστη δὲ βασιλεὺς ἕτερος ἐπ' αἴγυπτον ὃς οὐκ ᾔδει τὸν ιωσηφ

9 εἶπεν δὲ τῷ ἔθνει αὐτοῦ ἰδοὺ τὸ γένος τῶν υἱῶν ισραηλ μέγα πλῆθος καὶ ἰσχύει ὑπὲρ ἡμᾶς

10 δεῦτε οὖν κατασοφισώμεθα αὐτούς μήποτε πληθυνθῇ καί ἡνίκα ἂν συμβῇ ἡμῖν πόλεμος προστεθήσονται καὶ οὗτοι πρὸς τοὺς ὑπεναντίους καὶ ἐκπολεμήσαντες ἡμᾶς ἐξελεύσονται ἐκ τῆς γῆς

11 καὶ ἐπέστησεν αὐτοῖς ἐπιστάτας τῶν ἔργων ἵνα κακώσωσιν αὐτοὺς ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις καὶ ᾠκοδόμησαν πόλεις ὀχυρὰς τῷ φαραω τήν τε πιθωμ καὶ ραμεσση καὶ ων ἥ ἐστιν ἡλίου πόλις

12 καθότι δὲ αὐτοὺς ἐταπείνουν τοσούτῳ πλείους ἐγίνοντο καὶ ἴσχυον σφόδρα σφόδρα καὶ ἐβδελύσσοντο οἱ αἰγύπτιοι ἀπὸ τῶν υἱῶν ισραηλ

13 καὶ κατεδυνάστευον οἱ αἰγύπτιοι τοὺς υἱοὺς ισραηλ βίᾳ

14 καὶ κατωδύνων αὐτῶν τὴν ζωὴν ἐν τοῖς ἔργοις τοῖς σκληροῖς τῷ πηλῷ καὶ τῇ πλινθείᾳ καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἔργοις τοῖς ἐν τοῖς πεδίοις κατὰ πάντα τὰ ἔργα ὧν κατεδουλοῦντο αὐτοὺς μετὰ βίας

15 καὶ εἶπεν ὁ βασιλεὺς τῶν αἰγυπτίων ταῖς μαίαις τῶν εβραίων τῇ μιᾷ αὐτῶν ᾗ ὄνομα σεπφωρα καὶ τὸ ὄνομα τῆς δευτέρας φουα

16 καὶ εἶπεν ὅταν μαιοῦσθε τὰς εβραίας καὶ ὦσιν πρὸς τῷ τίκτειν ἐὰν μὲν ἄρσεν ᾖ ἀποκτείνατε αὐτό ἐὰν δὲ θῆλυ περιποιεῖσθε αὐτό

17 ἐφοβήθησαν δὲ αἱ μαῖαι τὸν θεὸν καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησαν καθότι συνέταξεν αὐταῖς ὁ βασιλεὺς αἰγύπτου καὶ ἐζωογόνουν τὰ ἄρσενα

18 ἐκάλεσεν δὲ ὁ βασιλεὺς αἰγύπτου τὰς μαίας καὶ εἶπεν αὐταῖς τί ὅτι ἐποιήσατε τὸ πρᾶγμα τοῦτο καὶ ἐζωογονεῖτε τὰ ἄρσενα

19 εἶπαν δὲ αἱ μαῖαι τῷ φαραω οὐχ ὡς γυναῖκες αἰγύπτου αἱ εβραῖαι τίκτουσιν γὰρ πρὶν ἢ εἰσελθεῖν πρὸς αὐτὰς τὰς μαίας καὶ ἔτικτον

20 εὖ δὲ ἐποίει ὁ θεὸς ταῖς μαίαις καὶ ἐπλήθυνεν ὁ λαὸς καὶ ἴσχυεν σφόδρα

21 ἐπειδὴ ἐφοβοῦντο αἱ μαῖαι τὸν θεόν ἐποίησαν ἑαυταῖς οἰκίας

22 συνέταξεν δὲ φαραω παντὶ τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ λέγων πᾶν ἄρσεν ὃ ἐὰν τεχθῇ τοῖς εβραίοις εἰς τὸν ποταμὸν ῥίψατε καὶ πᾶν θῆλυ ζωογονεῖτε αὐτό

6653. 'And he said to his people' means subordinated factual knowledge. This is clear from the meaning of 'people' as truths, and in the contrary sense as falsities, dealt with in 1259, 1260, 7295, 7581, here factual knowledge separated from truth since it is the people of Egypt. 'Egypt' means factual knowledge, see 6638; but the reason why subordinated factual knowledge is meant here is that the words 'the king said to his people' are used. 'People' means truths because in the Word the term 'people' is used of those who are subject to a king, and 'a king' means truth, 6651. But though 'people' means truths, one understands those in possession of truths. The reason however why truths are spoken of in isolation from anything else is that this is how spirits and angels think and speak of them. For by doing that they gain a complete overall view of a subject, and at the same time see specific details belonging to that subject. They do not contemplate any people in particular who are in possession of truths; for any such contemplation would divert their minds from seeing the complete overall picture, thus from seeing the lull extent of the subject, and so from gaining wisdom. For a concentration of the mind on any people in particular, or on any person in particular, narrows and restricts their ideas, and deprives them of a perception of the full range of the subject from one edge of it to the other. What applies to 'people' applies in a similar way to other terms, in that in the internal sense they mean entities unlimited by anything else, as is the case with nation (meaning good), king (meaning truth), prince (meaning a leading truth), priest (meaning good), son, daughter, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother, sister, father, mother, and very many others.
