1 καὶ εἶπαν πρὸς γεδεων ἀνὴρ εφραιμ τί τὸ ῥῆμα τοῦτο ἐποίησας ἡμῖν τοῦ μὴ καλέσαι ἡμᾶς ὅτε ἐπορεύθης παρατάξασθαι ἐν μαδιαμ καὶ διελέξαντο πρὸς αὐτὸν ἰσχυρῶς

2 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς τί ἐποίησα νῦν καθὼς ὑμεῖς ἢ οὐχὶ κρεῖσσον ἐπιφυλλὶς εφραιμ ἢ τρυγητὸς αβιεζερ

3 ἐν χειρὶ ὑμῶν παρέδωκεν κύριος τοὺς ἄρχοντας μαδιαμ τὸν ωρηβ καὶ τὸν ζηβ καὶ τί ἠδυνήθην ποιῆσαι ὡς ὑμεῖς τότε ἀνέθη τὸ πνεῦμα αὐτῶν ἀπ' αὐτοῦ ἐν τῷ λαλῆσαι αὐτὸν τὸν λόγον τοῦτον

4 καὶ ἦλθεν γεδεων ἐπὶ τὸν ιορδάνην καὶ διέβη αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ τριακόσιοι ἄνδρες οἱ μετ' αὐτοῦ πεινῶντες καὶ διώκοντες

5 καὶ εἶπεν τοῖς ἀνδράσιν σοκχωθ δότε δὴ ἄρτους εἰς τροφὴν τῷ λαῷ τούτῳ τῷ ἐν ποσίν μου ὅτι ἐκλείπουσιν καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐγώ εἰμι διώκων ὀπίσω τοῦ ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα βασιλέων μαδιαμ

6 καὶ εἶπον οἱ ἄρχοντες σοκχωθ μὴ χεὶρ ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα νῦν ἐν χειρί σου οὐ δώσομεν τῇ δυνάμει σου ἄρτους

7 καὶ εἶπεν γεδεων διὰ τοῦτο ἐν τῷ δοῦναι κύριον τὸν ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα ἐν χειρί μου καὶ ἐγὼ ἀλοήσω τὰς σάρκας ὑμῶν ἐν ταῖς ἀκάνθαις τῆς ἐρήμου καὶ ἐν ταῖς αβαρκηνιν

8 καὶ ἀνέβη ἐκεῖθεν εἰς φανουηλ καὶ ἐλάλησεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς ὡσαύτως καὶ ἀπεκρίθησαν αὐτῷ οἱ ἄνδρες φανουηλ ὃν τρόπον ἀπεκρίθησαν ἄνδρες σοκχωθ

9 καὶ εἶπεν γεδεων πρὸς ἄνδρας φανουηλ ἐν ἐπιστροφῇ μου μετ' εἰρήνης τὸν πύργον τοῦτον κατασκάψω

10 καὶ ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα ἐν καρκαρ καὶ ἡ παρεμβολὴ αὐτῶν μετ' αὐτῶν ὡσεὶ δέκα πέντε χιλιάδες πάντες οἱ καταλελειμμένοι ἀπὸ πάσης παρεμβολῆς ἀλλοφύλων καὶ οἱ πεπτωκότες ἑκατὸν εἴκοσι χιλιάδες ἀνδρῶν σπωμένων ῥομφαίαν

11 καὶ ἀνέβη γεδεων ὁδὸν τῶν σκηνούντων ἐν σκηναῖς ἀπὸ ἀνατολῶν τῆς ναβαι καὶ ιεγεβαλ καὶ ἐπάταξεν τὴν παρεμβολήν καὶ ἡ παρεμβολὴ ἦν πεποιθυῖα

12 καὶ ἔφυγον ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα καὶ ἐδίωξεν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν καὶ ἐκράτησεν τοὺς δύο βασιλεῖς μαδιαμ τὸν ζεβεε καὶ τὸν σελμανα καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν παρεμβολὴν ἐξέστησεν

13 καὶ ἐπέστρεψεν γεδεων υἱὸς ιωας ἀπὸ τῆς παρατάξεως ἀπὸ ἐπάνωθεν τῆς παρατάξεως αρες

14 καὶ συνέλαβεν παιδάριον ἀπὸ τῶν ἀνδρῶν σοκχωθ καὶ ἐπηρώτησεν αὐτόν καὶ ἔγραψεν πρὸς αὐτὸν τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν ἀρχόντων σοκχωθ καὶ τῶν πρεσβυτέρων αὐτῶν ἑβδομήκοντα καὶ ἑπτὰ ἄνδρας

15 καὶ παρεγένετο γεδεων πρὸς τοὺς ἄρχοντας σοκχωθ καὶ εἶπεν ἰδοὺ ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα ἐν οἷς ὠνειδίσατέ με λέγοντες μὴ χεὶρ ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα νῦν ἐν χειρί σου ὅτι δώσομεν τοῖς ἀνδράσιν τοῖς ἐκλείπουσιν ἄρτους

16 καὶ ἔλαβεν τοὺς πρεσβυτέρους τῆς πόλεως ἐν ταῖς ἀκάνθαις τῆς ἐρήμου καὶ ταῖς βαρακηνιμ καὶ ἠλόησεν ἐν αὐτοῖς τοὺς ἄνδρας τῆς πόλεως

17 καὶ τὸν πύργον φανουηλ κατέστρεψεν καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν τοὺς ἄνδρας τῆς πόλεως

18 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα ποῦ οἱ ἄνδρες οὓς ἀπεκτείνατε ἐν θαβωρ καὶ εἶπαν ὡς σύ ὡς αὐτοὶ εἰς ὁμοίωμα υἱοῦ βασιλέως

19 καὶ εἶπεν γεδεων ἀδελφοί μου καὶ υἱοὶ τῆς μητρός μου ἦσαν ζῇ κύριος εἰ ἐζωογονήκειτε αὐτούς οὐκ ἂν ἀπέκτεινα ὑμᾶς

20 καὶ εἶπεν ιεθερ τῷ πρωτοτόκῳ αὐτοῦ ἀναστὰς ἀπόκτεινον αὐτούς καὶ οὐκ ἔσπασεν τὸ παιδάριον τὴν ῥομφαίαν αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἐφοβήθη ὅτι ἔτι νεώτερος ἦν

21 καὶ εἶπεν ζεβεε καὶ σελμανα ἀνάστα σὺ καὶ συνάντησον ἡμῖν ὅτι ὡς ἀνδρὸς ἡ δύναμίς σου καὶ ἀνέστη γεδεων καὶ ἀπέκτεινεν τὸν ζεβεε καὶ τὸν σελμανα καὶ ἔλαβεν τοὺς μηνίσκους τοὺς ἐν τοῖς τραχήλοις τῶν καμήλων αὐτῶν

22 καὶ εἶπον ἀνὴρ ισραηλ πρὸς γεδεων κύριε ἄρξον ἡμῶν καὶ σὺ καὶ ὁ υἱός σου ὅτι σὺ ἔσωσας ἡμᾶς ἐκ χειρὸς μαδιαμ

23 καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτοὺς γεδεων οὐκ ἄρξω ἐγώ καὶ οὐκ ἄρξει ὁ υἱός μου ἐν ὑμῖν κύριος ἄρξει ὑμῶν

24 καὶ εἶπεν γεδεων πρὸς αὐτούς αἰτήσομαι παρ' ὑμῶν αἴτημα καὶ δότε μοι ἀνὴρ ἐνώτιον ἐκ σκύλων αὐτοῦ ὅτι ἐνώτια χρυσᾶ αὐτοῖς ὅτι ισμαηλῖται ἦσαν

25 καὶ εἶπαν διδόντες δώσομεν καὶ ἀνέπτυξεν τὸ ἱμάτιον αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔβαλεν ἐκεῖ ἀνὴρ ἐνώτιον σκύλων αὐτοῦ

26 καὶ ἐγένετο ὁ σταθμὸς τῶν ἐνωτίων τῶν χρυσῶν ὧν ᾔτησεν χίλιοι καὶ πεντακόσιοι χρυσοῖ πάρεξ τῶν μηνίσκων καὶ τῶν στραγγαλίδων καὶ τῶν ἱματίων καὶ πορφυρίδων τῶν ἐπὶ βασιλεῦσι μαδιαμ καὶ ἐκτὸς τῶν περιθεμάτων ἃ ἦν ἐν τοῖς τραχήλοις τῶν καμήλων αὐτῶν

27 καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτὸ γεδεων εἰς εφωθ καὶ ἔστησεν αὐτὸ ἐν πόλει αὐτοῦ εφραθα καὶ ἐξεπόρνευσεν πᾶς ισραηλ ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ ἐκεῖ καὶ ἐγένετο τῷ γεδεων καὶ τῷ οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ εἰς σκῶλον

28 καὶ συνεστάλη μαδιαμ ἐνώπιον υἱῶν ισραηλ καὶ οὐ προσέθηκαν ἆραι κεφαλὴν αὐτῶν καὶ ἡσύχασεν ἡ γῆ τεσσαράκοντα ἔτη ἐν ἡμέραις γεδεων

29 καὶ ἐπορεύθη ιεροβααλ υἱὸς ιωας καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἐν οἴκῳ αὐτοῦ

30 καὶ τῷ γεδεων ἦσαν ἑβδομήκοντα υἱοὶ ἐκπεπορευμένοι ἐκ μηρῶν αὐτοῦ ὅτι γυναῖκες πολλαὶ ἦσαν αὐτῷ

31 καὶ παλλακὴ αὐτοῦ ἦν ἐν συχεμ καὶ ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ καί γε αὐτὴ υἱόν καὶ ἔθηκεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ αβιμελεχ

32 καὶ ἀπέθανεν γεδεων υἱὸς ιωας ἐν πόλει αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐτάφη ἐν τῷ τάφῳ ιωας τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτοῦ ἐν εφραθα αβιεσδρι

33 καὶ ἐγένετο καθὼς ἀπέθανεν γεδεων καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν οἱ υἱοὶ ισραηλ καὶ ἐξεπόρνευσαν ὀπίσω τῶν βααλιμ καὶ ἔθηκαν ἑαυτοῖς τῷ βααλ διαθήκην τοῦ εἶναι αὐτοῖς αὐτὸν εἰς θεόν

34 καὶ οὐκ ἐμνήσθησαν οἱ υἱοὶ ισραηλ κυρίου τοῦ θεοῦ τοῦ ῥυσαμένου αὐτοὺς ἐκ χειρὸς πάντων τῶν θλιβόντων αὐτοὺς κυκλόθεν

35 καὶ οὐκ ἐποίησαν ἔλεος μετὰ τοῦ οἴκου ιεροβααλ αὐτός ἐστιν γεδεων κατὰ πάντα τὰ ἀγαθά ἃ ἐποίησεν μετὰ ισραηλ

3246. 'And to the concubines' sons, whom Abraham had, Abraham gave gifts' means that places in the Lord's spiritual kingdom were allotted to spiritual people adopted by the Lord's Divine Human. This is clear from the meaning of 'the concubines' sons' as those who are spiritual, to be dealt with below; from the representation of 'Abraham' here as the Lord's Divine Human (so that the words 'whom Abraham had' mean that they - those who were spiritual - were adopted by the Lord's Divine Human); and from the meaning of 'the gifts which Abraham gave them' as allotted places in the Lord's spiritual kingdom.

[2] From what has been shown several times already about those who constitute the Lord's spiritual kingdom and who are called the spiritual, as in 3235 and elsewhere, it becomes clear that they are not sons of the marriage itself of good and truth, but of a certain covenant not so conjugial. They are indeed descended from the same father but not from the same mother, that is, from the same Divine Good but not from the same Divine Truth. Indeed with those who are celestial, since they are the product of the marriage itself of good and truth, good exists and truth rooted in that good. They never make investigations into what the truth may be but have a perception of it from good. Nor in conversation do they say more than this regarding what is true, 'Yes, that is so', in keeping with the Lord's teaching in Matthew,

Let your words be Yes, yes; No, no; anything beyond this is from evil. 1 Matthew 5:37.

But those who are spiritual, since they are the product of a covenant not so conjugial, do not have any perception from which they can know what is true. Instead they call that the truth which parents and teachers have told them to be the truth. Consequently with them there is no marriage of good and truth. Nevertheless that which they believe to be the truth for the reason just given is adopted by the Lord as truth when goodness of life exists with them; see 1832. This now explains why the spiritual are here called 'the concubines' sons', which is used to mean all the sons of Keturah mentioned already, and also those descended from Hagar, dealt with shortly below in verses 12-18.

[3] In former times - to enable both those who are celestial and those who are spiritual to be represented in marriages - a man was allowed to have a concubine in addition to a wife. That concubine was given to the husband by his wife (uxor), in which case the concubine was called his wife (mulier), or was said to have been given to him as a wife (mulier), as when Hagar the Egyptian was given to Abraham by Sarah, Genesis 16:3, when the servant-girl Bilhah was given to Jacob by Rachel, Genesis 30:4, and when the servant-girl Zilpah was given to Jacob by Leah, Genesis 30:9. In those cases they are called 'wives' (mulier), but elsewhere concubines, as is Hagar the Egyptian in the present verse, Bilhah in Genesis 35:22, and even Keturah herself in 1 Chronicles 1:32.

[4] The reason why those men of old had concubines in addition to a wife, as not only Abraham and Jacob did, but also their descendants, such as Gideon, Judges 8:31; Saul, 2 Samuel 3:7; David, 2 Samuel 5:13; 15:16; Solomon, 1 Kings 11:3, was that they were permitted to do so for the sake of the representation. That is to say, the celestial Church was represented by the wife, and the spiritual Church by the concubine. They were permitted to do so because they were the kind of men with whom conjugial love did not exist; so that to them marriage was not marriage but merely copulation for the sake of begetting off-spring. With such persons those permissions were possible without any harm being done to love or consequently to the conjugial covenant. But such permissions are never possible among people with whom good and truth are present and who are internal people, or potentially so. For as soon as good and truth, and internal things, exist with the human being, such permissions come to an end. This is why Christians are not allowed, as the Jews were, to take a concubine in addition to a wife, and why such is adultery. Regarding the adoption of those who are spiritual by the Lord's Divine Human, see what has been stated and shown already on the same subject in 2661, 2716, 2833, 2834.
