2 Samuel 1

Studie

1 και εγενετο μετα το αποθανειν σαουλ και δαυιδ ανεστρεψεν τυπτων τον αμαληκ και εκαθισεν δαυιδ εν σεκελακ ημερας δυο

2 και εγενηθη τη ημερα τη τριτη και ιδου ανηρ ηλθεν εκ της παρεμβολης εκ του λαου σαουλ και τα ιματια αυτου διερρωγοτα και γη επι της κεφαλης αυτου και εγενετο εν τω εισελθειν αυτον προς δαυιδ και επεσεν επι την γην και προσεκυνησεν αυτω

3 και ειπεν αυτω δαυιδ ποθεν συ παραγινη και ειπεν προς αυτον εκ της παρεμβολης ισραηλ εγω διασεσωσμαι

4 και ειπεν αυτω δαυιδ τις ο λογος ουτος απαγγειλον μοι και ειπεν οτι εφυγεν ο λαος εκ του πολεμου και πεπτωκασι πολλοι εκ του λαου και απεθανον και απεθανεν και σαουλ και ιωναθαν ο υιος αυτου απεθανεν

5 και ειπεν δαυιδ τω παιδαριω τω απαγγελλοντι αυτω πως οιδας οτι τεθνηκεν σαουλ και ιωναθαν ο υιος αυτου

6 και ειπεν το παιδαριον το απαγγελλον αυτω περιπτωματι περιεπεσον εν τω ορει τω γελβουε και ιδου σαουλ επεστηρικτο επι το δορυ αυτου και ιδου τα αρματα και οι ιππαρχαι συνηψαν αυτω

7 και επεβλεψεν επι τα οπισω αυτου και ειδεν με και εκαλεσεν με και ειπα ιδου εγω

8 και ειπεν μοι τις ει συ και ειπα αμαληκιτης εγω ειμι

9 και ειπεν προς με στηθι δη επανω μου και θανατωσον με οτι κατεσχεν με σκοτος δεινον οτι πασα η ψυχη μου εν εμοι

10 και επεστην επ' αυτον και εθανατωσα αυτον οτι ηδειν οτι ου ζησεται μετα το πεσειν αυτον και ελαβον το βασιλειον το επι την κεφαλην αυτου και τον χλιδωνα τον επι του βραχιονος αυτου και ενηνοχα αυτα τω κυριω μου ωδε

11 και εκρατησεν δαυιδ των ιματιων αυτου και διερρηξεν αυτα και παντες οι ανδρες οι μετ' αυτου διερρηξαν τα ιματια αυτων

12 και εκοψαντο και εκλαυσαν και ενηστευσαν εως δειλης επι σαουλ και επι ιωναθαν τον υιον αυτου και επι τον λαον ιουδα και επι τον οικον ισραηλ οτι επληγησαν εν ρομφαια

13 και ειπεν δαυιδ τω παιδαριω τω απαγγελλοντι αυτω ποθεν ει συ και ειπεν υιος ανδρος παροικου αμαληκιτου εγω ειμι

14 και ειπεν αυτω δαυιδ πως ουκ εφοβηθης επενεγκειν χειρα σου διαφθειραι τον χριστον κυριου

15 και εκαλεσεν δαυιδ εν των παιδαριων αυτου και ειπεν προσελθων απαντησον αυτω και επαταξεν αυτον και απεθανεν

16 και ειπεν δαυιδ προς αυτον το αιμα σου επι την κεφαλην σου οτι το στομα σου απεκριθη κατα σου λεγων οτι εγω εθανατωσα τον χριστον κυριου

17 και εθρηνησεν δαυιδ τον θρηνον τουτον επι σαουλ και επι ιωναθαν τον υιον αυτου

18 και ειπεν του διδαξαι τους υιους ιουδα ιδου γεγραπται επι βιβλιου του ευθους

19 στηλωσον ισραηλ υπερ των τεθνηκοτων επι τα υψη σου τραυματιων πως επεσαν δυνατοι

20 μη αναγγειλητε εν γεθ και μη ευαγγελισησθε εν ταις εξοδοις ασκαλωνος μηποτε ευφρανθωσιν θυγατερες αλλοφυλων μηποτε αγαλλιασωνται θυγατερες των απεριτμητων

21 ορη τα εν γελβουε μη καταβη δροσος και μη υετος εφ' υμας και αγροι απαρχων οτι εκει προσωχθισθη θυρεος δυνατων θυρεος σαουλ ουκ εχρισθη εν ελαιω

22 αφ' αιματος τραυματιων απο στεατος δυνατων τοξον ιωναθαν ουκ απεστραφη κενον εις τα οπισω και ρομφαια σαουλ ουκ ανεκαμψεν κενη

23 σαουλ και ιωναθαν οι ηγαπημενοι και ωραιοι ου διακεχωρισμενοι ευπρεπεις εν τη ζωη αυτων και εν τω θανατω αυτων ου διεχωρισθησαν υπερ αετους κουφοι και υπερ λεοντας εκραταιωθησαν

24 θυγατερες ισραηλ επι σαουλ κλαυσατε τον ενδιδυσκοντα υμας κοκκινα μετα κοσμου υμων τον αναφεροντα κοσμον χρυσουν επι τα ενδυματα υμων

25 πως επεσαν δυνατοι εν μεσω του πολεμου ιωναθαν επι τα υψη σου τραυματιας

26 αλγω επι σοι αδελφε μου ιωναθαν ωραιωθης μοι σφοδρα εθαυμαστωθη η αγαπησις σου εμοι υπερ αγαπησιν γυναικων

27 πως επεσαν δυνατοι και απωλοντο σκευη πολεμικα

11. Which are in Asia. This symbolically means, to those who from the Word possess the light of truth.

Since, as we said before, all the names of persons and places in the Word mean things having to do with heaven and the church, so too does Asia, and likewise the names of the seven churches there, as will be apparent from considerations that follow.

Asia means those who possess the light of truth from the Word because the Most Ancient Church existed there, followed by the Ancient Church, and later the Israelite Church, and because the Ancient Word existed among them, and later the Israelite Word. For all light of truth comes from the Word.

To be shown that there were ancient churches in the Asiatic world, and that they had a Word which was afterward lost, and that there finally existed there the Word that we have today, see The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Sacred Scripture, nos. 101-103.

That, now, is the reason that Asia here symbolizes all those who from the Word possess the light of truth.

[2] Regarding the aforementioned Ancient Word which existed in Asia before the Israelite Word, this new information deserves to be reported, that it is still preserved there among peoples who live in Great Tartary. 1 I have spoken with spirits and angels in the spiritual world who came from there, who said that they possessed a Word, that they had possessed it from ancient times, that they conduct their worship in accordance with it, and that it consists of nothing but things that correspond. They said that it also contains the book of Jasher, which is mentioned in Joshua (Joshua 10:12-13) 2 and in the Second Book of Samuel (2 Samuel 1:17, 18) 3 , and that they have among them as well The Wars of Jehovah and Prophecies, books which Moses mentions in Numbers (Numbers 21:14, 15, 27-30) 4 .

Moreover, when I read in their presence the words that Moses took from those books, they looked to see whether they existed there, and they found them.

It was apparent to me from this that the Ancient Word still exists among them.

In the course of my conversation with them they said they worship Jehovah - some of them worshiping Him as an invisible God, some as a visible one.

Furthermore, they related that they do not allow foreigners to enter their midst, with the exception of the Chinese, with whom they cultivate a peaceful relationship, because the Chinese emperor came from them. They said, too, that their country is so populous that they do not believe any region in the whole world to be more populous - which is also believable on account of the wall extending so many miles which the Chinese once built to protect themselves from being invaded by them.

Inquire concerning the Ancient Word in China, and perhaps you will find it there among the Tartars. 5

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. A vast region controlled by Mongols in the 13th and 14th centuries, extending from eastern Europe over much of Asia. After the Turkish groups known as Tatars were conquered and assimilated by the Mongols in the early 13th century, the Mongol invaders of Russia and Hungary became known to Europeans as Tatars or Tartars, and their territory was depicted in maps as Great Tartary.

2. "Then Joshua spoke to Jehovah in the day when Jehovah delivered up the Amorites before the children of Israel, and he said in the sight of Israel: 'Sun, stand still over Gibeon; and Moon, in the Valley of Aijalon.' So the sun stood still, and the moon stopped, till the people had revenge upon their enemies. Is this not written in the Book of Jasher?"

3. "Then David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son, and he told them to teach the children of Judah the Song of the Bow; indeed it is written in the Book of Jasher."

4. "Therefore it is said in the Book of the Wars of the Jehovah: 'Waheb in Suphah, the brooks of the Arnon, and the slope of the brooks that reaches to the dwelling of Ar, and lies on the border of Moab.'" "...Therefore the Prophecies say: 'Come to Heshbon, let it be built; let the city of Sihon be repaired. For fire went out from Heshbon, a flame from the city of Sihon; it consumed Ar of Moab, the lords of the heights of the Arnon. Woe to you, Moab! You have perished, O people of Chemosh! He has given his sons as fugitives, and his daughters into captivity, to Sihon king of the Amorites. But we have shot at them; Heshbon has perished as far as Dibon. Then we laid waste as far as Nophah, which reaches to Medeba.'"

5. I.e., among the descendants of the Mongols.
