Studie

   

1 απεκριθη δε μωυσης και ειπεν εαν ουν μη πιστευσωσιν μοι μηδε εισακουσωσιν της φωνης μου ερουσιν γαρ οτι ουκ ωπται σοι ο θεος τι ερω προς αυτους

2 ειπεν δε αυτω κυριος τι τουτο εστιν το εν τη χειρι σου ο δε ειπεν ραβδος

3 και ειπεν ριψον αυτην επι την γην και ερριψεν αυτην επι την γην και εγενετο οφις και εφυγεν μωυσης απ' αυτου

4 και ειπεν κυριος προς μωυσην εκτεινον την χειρα και επιλαβου της κερκου εκτεινας ουν την χειρα επελαβετο της κερκου και εγενετο ραβδος εν τη χειρι αυτου

5 ινα πιστευσωσιν σοι οτι ωπται σοι κυριος ο θεος των πατερων αυτων θεος αβρααμ και θεος ισαακ και θεος ιακωβ

6 ειπεν δε αυτω κυριος παλιν εισενεγκε την χειρα σου εις τον κολπον σου και εισηνεγκεν την χειρα αυτου εις τον κολπον αυτου και εξηνεγκεν την χειρα αυτου εκ του κολπου αυτου και εγενηθη η χειρ αυτου ωσει χιων

7 και ειπεν παλιν εισενεγκε την χειρα σου εις τον κολπον σου και εισηνεγκεν την χειρα εις τον κολπον αυτου και εξηνεγκεν αυτην εκ του κολπου αυτου και παλιν απεκατεστη εις την χροαν της σαρκος αυτου

8 εαν δε μη πιστευσωσιν σοι μηδε εισακουσωσιν της φωνης του σημειου του πρωτου πιστευσουσιν σοι της φωνης του σημειου του εσχατου

9 και εσται εαν μη πιστευσωσιν σοι τοις δυσι σημειοις τουτοις μηδε εισακουσωσιν της φωνης σου λημψη απο του υδατος του ποταμου και εκχεεις επι το ξηρον και εσται το υδωρ ο εαν λαβης απο του ποταμου αιμα επι του ξηρου

10 ειπεν δε μωυσης προς κυριον δεομαι κυριε ουχ ικανος ειμι προ της εχθες ουδε προ της τριτης ημερας ουδε αφ' ου ηρξω λαλειν τω θεραποντι σου ισχνοφωνος και βραδυγλωσσος εγω ειμι

11 ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην τις εδωκεν στομα ανθρωπω και τις εποιησεν δυσκωφον και κωφον βλεποντα και τυφλον ουκ εγω ο θεος

12 και νυν πορευου και εγω ανοιξω το στομα σου και συμβιβασω σε ο μελλεις λαλησαι

13 και ειπεν μωυσης δεομαι κυριε προχειρισαι δυναμενον αλλον ον αποστελεις

14 και θυμωθεις οργη κυριος επι μωυσην ειπεν ουκ ιδου ααρων ο αδελφος σου ο λευιτης επισταμαι οτι λαλων λαλησει αυτος σοι και ιδου αυτος εξελευσεται εις συναντησιν σοι και ιδων σε χαρησεται εν εαυτω

15 και ερεις προς αυτον και δωσεις τα ρηματα μου εις το στομα αυτου και εγω ανοιξω το στομα σου και το στομα αυτου και συμβιβασω υμας α ποιησετε

16 και αυτος σοι προσλαλησει προς τον λαον και αυτος εσται σου στομα συ δε αυτω εση τα προς τον θεον

17 και την ραβδον ταυτην την στραφεισαν εις οφιν λημψη εν τη χειρι σου εν η ποιησεις εν αυτη τα σημεια

18 επορευθη δε μωυσης και απεστρεψεν προς ιοθορ τον γαμβρον αυτου και λεγει πορευσομαι και αποστρεψω προς τους αδελφους μου τους εν αιγυπτω και οψομαι ει ετι ζωσιν και ειπεν ιοθορ μωυση βαδιζε υγιαινων

19 μετα δε τας ημερας τας πολλας εκεινας ετελευτησεν ο βασιλευς αιγυπτου ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην εν μαδιαμ βαδιζε απελθε εις αιγυπτον τεθνηκασιν γαρ παντες οι ζητουντες σου την ψυχην

20 αναλαβων δε μωυσης την γυναικα και τα παιδια ανεβιβασεν αυτα επι τα υποζυγια και επεστρεψεν εις αιγυπτον ελαβεν δε μωυσης την ραβδον την παρα του θεου εν τη χειρι αυτου

21 ειπεν δε κυριος προς μωυσην πορευομενου σου και αποστρεφοντος εις αιγυπτον ορα παντα τα τερατα α εδωκα εν ταις χερσιν σου ποιησεις αυτα εναντιον φαραω εγω δε σκληρυνω την καρδιαν αυτου και ου μη εξαποστειλη τον λαον

22 συ δε ερεις τω φαραω ταδε λεγει κυριος υιος πρωτοτοκος μου ισραηλ

23 ειπα δε σοι εξαποστειλον τον λαον μου ινα μοι λατρευση ει μεν ουν μη βουλει εξαποστειλαι αυτους ορα ουν εγω αποκτενω τον υιον σου τον πρωτοτοκον

24 εγενετο δε εν τη οδω εν τω καταλυματι συνηντησεν αυτω αγγελος κυριου και εζητει αυτον αποκτειναι

25 και λαβουσα σεπφωρα ψηφον περιετεμεν την ακροβυστιαν του υιου αυτης και προσεπεσεν προς τους ποδας και ειπεν εστη το αιμα της περιτομης του παιδιου μου

26 και απηλθεν απ' αυτου διοτι ειπεν εστη το αιμα της περιτομης του παιδιου μου

27 ειπεν δε κυριος προς ααρων πορευθητι εις συναντησιν μωυσει εις την ερημον και επορευθη και συνηντησεν αυτω εν τω ορει του θεου και κατεφιλησαν αλληλους

28 και ανηγγειλεν μωυσης τω ααρων παντας τους λογους κυριου ους απεστειλεν και παντα τα σημεια α ενετειλατο αυτω

29 επορευθη δε μωυσης και ααρων και συνηγαγον την γερουσιαν των υιων ισραηλ

30 και ελαλησεν ααρων παντα τα ρηματα ταυτα α ελαλησεν ο θεος προς μωυσην και εποιησεν τα σημεια εναντιον του λαου

31 και επιστευσεν ο λαος και εχαρη οτι επεσκεψατο ο θεος τους υιους ισραηλ και οτι ειδεν αυτων την θλιψιν κυψας δε ο λαος προσεκυνησεν

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.

Exodus 7

Studie

   

1 Yahweh said to Moses, "Behold, I have made you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.

2 You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.

3 I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

4 But Pharaoh will not listen to you, and I will lay my hand on Egypt, and bring forth my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.

5 The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh, when I stretch forth my hand on Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them."

6 Moses and Aaron did so. As Yahweh commanded them, so they did.

7 Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.

8 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

9 "When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, 'Perform a miracle!' then you shall tell Aaron, 'Take your rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it become a serpent.'"

10 Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as Yahweh had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

11 Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers. They also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same thing with their enchantments.

12 For they each cast down their rods, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.

13 Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he didn't listen to them; as Yahweh had spoken.

14 Yahweh said to Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is stubborn. He refuses to let the people go.

15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning. Behold, he goes out to the water; and you shall stand by the river's bank to meet him; and the rod which was turned to a serpent you shall take in your hand.

16 You shall tell him, 'Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, "Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness:" and behold, until now you haven't listened.

17 Thus says Yahweh, "In this you shall know that I am Yahweh. Behold, I will strike with the rod that is in my hand on the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.

18 The fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall become foul; and the Egyptians shall loathe to drink water from the river."'"

19 Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Take your rod, and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.'"

20 Moses and Aaron did so, as Yahweh commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.

21 The fish that were in the river died; and the river became foul, and the Egyptians couldn't drink water from the river; and the blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.

22 The magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their enchantments; and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he didn't listen to them; as Yahweh had spoken.

23 Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he lay even this to heart.

24 All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they couldn't drink of the water of the river.

25 Seven days were fulfilled, after Yahweh had struck the river.
