Studie

   

1 και μωυση ειπεν αναβηθι προς κυριον συ και ααρων και ναδαβ και αβιουδ και εβδομηκοντα των πρεσβυτερων ισραηλ και προσκυνησουσιν μακροθεν τω κυριω

2 και εγγιει μωυσης μονος προς τον θεον αυτοι δε ουκ εγγιουσιν ο δε λαος ου συναναβησεται μετ' αυτων

3 εισηλθεν δε μωυσης και διηγησατο τω λαω παντα τα ρηματα του θεου και τα δικαιωματα απεκριθη δε πας ο λαος φωνη μια λεγοντες παντας τους λογους ους ελαλησεν κυριος ποιησομεν και ακουσομεθα

4 και εγραψεν μωυσης παντα τα ρηματα κυριου ορθρισας δε μωυσης το πρωι ωκοδομησεν θυσιαστηριον υπο το ορος και δωδεκα λιθους εις τας δωδεκα φυλας του ισραηλ

5 και εξαπεστειλεν τους νεανισκους των υιων ισραηλ και ανηνεγκαν ολοκαυτωματα και εθυσαν θυσιαν σωτηριου τω θεω μοσχαρια

6 λαβων δε μωυσης το ημισυ του αιματος ενεχεεν εις κρατηρας το δε ημισυ του αιματος προσεχεεν προς το θυσιαστηριον

7 και λαβων το βιβλιον της διαθηκης ανεγνω εις τα ωτα του λαου και ειπαν παντα οσα ελαλησεν κυριος ποιησομεν και ακουσομεθα

8 λαβων δε μωυσης το αιμα κατεσκεδασεν του λαου και ειπεν ιδου το αιμα της διαθηκης ης διεθετο κυριος προς υμας περι παντων των λογων τουτων

9 και ανεβη μωυσης και ααρων και ναδαβ και αβιουδ και εβδομηκοντα της γερουσιας ισραηλ

10 και ειδον τον τοπον ου ειστηκει εκει ο θεος του ισραηλ και τα υπο τους ποδας αυτου ωσει εργον πλινθου σαπφειρου και ωσπερ ειδος στερεωματος του ουρανου τη καθαριοτητι

11 και των επιλεκτων του ισραηλ ου διεφωνησεν ουδε εις και ωφθησαν εν τω τοπω του θεου και εφαγον και επιον

12 και ειπεν κυριος προς μωυσην αναβηθι προς με εις το ορος και ισθι εκει και δωσω σοι τα πυξια τα λιθινα τον νομον και τας εντολας ας εγραψα νομοθετησαι αυτοις

13 και αναστας μωυσης και ιησους ο παρεστηκως αυτω ανεβησαν εις το ορος του θεου

14 και τοις πρεσβυτεροις ειπαν ησυχαζετε αυτου εως αναστρεψωμεν προς υμας και ιδου ααρων και ωρ μεθ' υμων εαν τινι συμβη κρισις προσπορευεσθωσαν αυτοις

15 και ανεβη μωυσης και ιησους εις το ορος και εκαλυψεν η νεφελη το ορος

16 και κατεβη η δοξα του θεου επι το ορος το σινα και εκαλυψεν αυτο η νεφελη εξ ημερας και εκαλεσεν κυριος τον μωυσην τη ημερα τη εβδομη εκ μεσου της νεφελης

17 το δε ειδος της δοξης κυριου ωσει πυρ φλεγον επι της κορυφης του ορους εναντιον των υιων ισραηλ

18 και εισηλθεν μωυσης εις το μεσον της νεφελης και ανεβη εις το ορος και ην εκει εν τω ορει τεσσαρακοντα ημερας και τεσσαρακοντα νυκτας

9328. And I will trouble all the people. That this signifies the dismay of all falsities, is evident from the signification of “troubling,” as being dismay (of which below); and from the signification of “the people,” as being those who are in truths, thus, speaking abstractedly, truths, and in the opposite sense falsities (n. 1259, 1260, 2928, 3295, 3581, 6232). The reason why “troubling” signifies dismay, is that those who are in dismay are so troubled in mind and heart that they become insane, and of themselves rush into destruction. That such dismay is signified by “troubling,” is evident in Zechariah:

In that day there shall be a great troubling from Jehovah among those who fight against Jerusalem; and they shall lay hold every one of the hand of his companion, and his hand shall rise up upon the hand of his companion (Zech. 14:13);

“to fight against Jerusalem” denotes against the church, thus against the truths and goods of faith that make the church; that the “great troubling” denotes dismay even to insanity, is evident.

In Moses:

Jehovah thy God shall give up the nations before thee, and shall trouble them with a very great troubling, until they be destroyed (Deuteronomy 7:23); “a great troubling” denotes dismay.

Genesis 25

Studie

   

1 Abraham took another wife, and her name was Keturah.

2 She bore him Zimran, Jokshan, Medan, Midian, Ishbak, and Shuah.

3 Jokshan became the father of Sheba, and Dedan. The sons of Dedan were Asshurim, Letushim, and Leummim.

4 The sons of Midian: Ephah, Epher, Hanoch, Abida, and Eldaah. All these were the children of Keturah.

5 Abraham gave all that he had to Isaac,

6 but to the sons of Abraham's concubines, Abraham gave gifts. He sent them away from Isaac his son, while he yet lived, eastward, to the east country.

7 These are the days of the years of Abraham's life which he lived: one hundred seventy-five years.

8 Abraham gave up the spirit, and died in a good old age, an old man, and full of years, and was gathered to his people.

9 Isaac and Ishmael, his sons, buried him in the cave of Machpelah, in the field of Ephron, the son of Zohar the Hittite, which is before Mamre,

10 the field which Abraham purchased of the children of Heth. Abraham was buried there with Sarah, his wife.

11 It happened after the death of Abraham that God blessed Isaac, his son. Isaac lived by Beer Lahai Roi.

12 Now this is the history of the generations of Ishmael, Abraham's son, whom Hagar the Egyptian, Sarah's handmaid, bore to Abraham.

13 These are the names of the sons of Ishmael, by their names, according to the order of their birth: the firstborn of Ishmael, Nebaioth, then Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,

14 Mishma, Dumah, Massa,

15 Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah.

16 These are the sons of Ishmael, and these are their names, by their villages, and by their encampments: twelve princes, according to their nations.

17 These are the years of the life of Ishmael: one hundred thirty-seven years. He gave up the spirit and died, and was gathered to his people.

18 They lived from Havilah to Shur that is before Egypt, as you go toward Assyria. He lived opposite all his relatives.

19 This is the history of the generations of Isaac, Abraham's son. Abraham became the father of Isaac.

20 Isaac was forty years old when he took Rebekah, the daughter of Bethuel the Syrian of Paddan Aram, the sister of Laban the Syrian, to be his wife.

21 Isaac entreated Yahweh for his wife, because she was barren. Yahweh was entreated by him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.

22 The children struggled together within her. She said, "If it be so, why do I live?" She went to inquire of Yahweh.

23 Yahweh said to her, "Two nations are in your womb. Two peoples will be separated from your body. The one people will be stronger than the other people. The elder will serve the younger."

24 When her days to be delivered were fulfilled, behold, there were twins in her womb.

25 The first came out red all over, like a hairy garment. They named him Esau.

26 After that, his brother came out, and his hand had hold on Esau's heel. He was named Jacob. Isaac was sixty years old when she bore them.

27 The boys grew. Esau was a skillful hunter, a man of the field. Jacob was a quiet man, living in tents.

28 Now Isaac loved Esau, because he ate his venison. Rebekah loved Jacob.

29 Jacob boiled stew. Esau came in from the field, and he was famished.

30 Esau said to Jacob, "Please feed me with that same red stew, for I am famished." Therefore his name was called Edom.

31 Jacob said, "First, sell me your birthright."

32 Esau said, "Behold, I am about to die. What good is the birthright to me?"

33 Jacob said, "Swear to me first." He swore to him. He sold his birthright to Jacob.

34 Jacob gave Esau bread and stew of lentils. He ate and drank, rose up, and went his way. So Esau despised his birthright.
