Исход 15

Studie

   

1 Пою Іеговј: ибо Онъ высоко превознесся, Коня и всадника его ввергнулъ въ море.

2 Богъ, хвала моя, и пјснь, и сдјлался моимъ Спасителемъ; Онъ Богъ мой, и прославлю Его; Богъ отца моего, и превознесу Его.

3 Іегова мужъ брани, Іегова имя Ему.

4 Колесницы Фараоновы и силу его ввергнулъ Онъ въ море, и избранные военачальники его погрязли въ морј Чермномъ,

5 Бездны покрыли ихъ; Они пошли въ глубину, какъ камень.

6 Десница Твоя, Іегова, прославилась силою; Десница Твоя, Іегова, сразила врага.

7 Превосходствомъ величія Твоего Ты низложилъ возставшихъ противъ Тебя. Ты пустилъ ярость Твою, и она попалила ихъ, какъ солому.

8 Отъ гнјвнаго дуновенія Твоего восхолмились воды, Влага стала горою, Огустјли пучины въ сердцј моря.

9 Врагъ сказалъ: погонюсь, настигну, раздјлю добычу; Насытится ими душа моя, Обнажу мечъ мой, Истребитъ ихъ рука моя.

10 Ты дунулъ духомъ Твоимъ, покрыло ихъ море. Они погрузились, какъ свинецъ, въ сильныхъ водахъ.

11 Кто какъ Ты, Іегова, между богами? Кто, какъ Ты, величественъ святостію: Досточтимъ хвалами, Творецъ чудесъ?

12 Ты простеръ десницу Твою; Земля пожрала ихъ.

13 Ты ведешь милостію Твоею народъ сей, Тобою избавленный. Провождаешь силою Твоею въ жилище святыни Твоей.

14 Народы слышатъ, трепещутъ: Ужасъ объялъ жителей Палестины,

15 Мятутся князи Эдомовы, вождей Моавитскихъ объялъ трепетъ, Уныли всј жители Ханана.

16 Страхъ и ужасъ напалъ на нихъ, Отъ величія мышцы Твоей они онјмјли, какъ камень, Тогда какъ проходитъ народъ Твой, Іегова, Тогда какъ проходитъ народъ сей, Тобою пріобрјтенный.

17 Ты введешь его и насадишь его на горј наслјдія Твоего, На мјстј, которое Ты содјлалъ Себј жилищемъ, Іегова, Во святнлищј, которое создали руки Твои, Господи.

18 Іегова будетъ царствовать во вјкъ и въ вјчность.

19 Ибо вошли кони Фараоновы съ колесницами его и съ всадниками его въ море, но Іегова обратилъ на нихъ воды морскія; а сыны Израилевы прошли по сушј среди моря.

20 И взяла Маріамъ пророчица, сестра Ааронова, въ руку свою тимпанъ, и въ слјдъ ея шли всј женщины съ тимпанами и съ ликованіемъ.

21 И воспјла Маріамъ въ соотвјтствіе сынамъ Израилевымъ: Пойте Іеговј, ибо Онъ высоко превознесся, Коня и всадника его ввергнулъ въ море.

22 Потомъ повелъ Моисей Израиля отъ Чермнаго моря, и они вступили въ пустыню Суръ; и шли три дня пустынею, и не находили воды.

23 Пришли въ Мерру; и не могли пить воды въ Меррј, ибо она была горька: отъ сего и наречено тому мјсту имя: Мерра.

24 И возропталъ народъ на Моисея, говоря: что намъ пить?

25 Моисей возопилъ ко Іеговј, и показалъ ему Іегова дерево, которое онъ бросилъ въ воду. и вода сдјлаласъ сладкою. Тамъ Богъ далъ народу уставъ и законъ, и тамъ испытывалъ его,

26 и сказалъ: если ты будешь постоянно слушать гласа Іеговы, Бога твоего, и поступать праведно предъ очами Его и внимать заповјди Его, и соблюдешь всј уставы Его; то не наведу на тебя ни одной изъ болјзней, кои навелъ Я на Египтянъ, ибо Я Іегова врачъ твой.

27 И пришли въ Елимъ; тамъ было двјнадцать источниковъ водныхъ и семьдесятъ финиковыхъ деревъ; и тамъ при водахъ расположились станомъ.

8369. 'And seventy palm trees' means forms of the good of truth in like measure, that is to say, in full abundance. This is clear from the meaning of 'seventy' - like 'twelve' - as all things in their entirety, dealt with in 7973; and from the meaning of 'palm trees' as forms of good in the spiritual Church, which are forms of the good of truth. And since forms of good are meant by 'palm trees', an affection for good and the delight resulting from it are meant, for an affection for good is the source of all delight. Since 'palm trees' had this meaning they were also used in sacred festivities, such as the feast of tabernacles, in accordance with the following in Moses,

You shall take on the first day the fruit of a fine tree, 1 fronds of palm trees, the bough of a thick tree, and willows of the powerful stream; and you shall be glad before Jehovah your God seven days. Leviticus 23:40.

'The fruit of a fine tree' means celestial good, 'palm trees' spiritual good or the good of truth, 'the bough of a thick tree' truth in the form of factual knowledge, and 'willows of the powerful stream' lowest truths belonging to the natural. The four accordingly mean all forms of good and truths in their proper order.

[2] The fact that 'palm trees' were signs of sacred festivity springing from good is also clear from the following in John,

A great crowd who had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, took branches of palm trees, and went to meet Him, and cried, Hosanna! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel. John 12:12-13.

And in the same author, in Revelation,

I saw, and behold a large crowd standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palm branches in their hands. Revelation 7:9.

In Joel,

The vine has withered and the fig tree languishes, the pomegranate tree and also the palm; all joy has withered away from the sons of man. Joel 1:12.

In David,

The righteous will flourish like a palm tree; he will grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Psalms 92:12.

Here 'a palm tree' stands for good and 'a cedar' for truth.

[3] Since 'a palm tree' means good it also means wisdom, for wisdom is the discernment of good. The palm trees which were carved along with the cherubs and flowers on the walls of the temple were signs meaning such wisdom. 'The temple' meant the Lord Himself, and in the representative sense it meant heaven, 2777, 3720; 'the cherubs, palm trees, and flowers' on the walls meant providence, wisdom, and intelligence that are the Lord's, and so meant all things belonging to heaven. The fact that they were carved on the walls of the temple is clear in the first Book of Kings,

Solomon carved all the walls of the house all around with openings of carvings of cherubs, 2 and of palm trees, and with openings of flowers. And on the two doors of olive wood he carved carvings of cherubs and of palm trees, and openings of flowers, and overlaid them with gold, so that he spread gold over the cherubs and over the palm trees. 1 Kings 6:29, 32.

These 'carvings' represented the heavenly state; 'the cherubs' represented the Lord's Providence, thus the truth that all things come from Him (for the meaning of 'cherubs' as providence, see 308); 'the palm trees' represented wisdom that is a discernment of good coming from the Lord; and 'the flowers' represented intelligence that is an understanding of truth coming from Him. 'Gold' with which the cherubs and palm trees were overlaid meant the good of love, which holds sway throughout heaven (for the meaning of 'gold' as the good of love, see 113, 1551, 1552, 5658). All this also explains why in the description in Ezekiel of the new temple, meaning the Lord's heaven, it says that 'cherubs and palm trees' were on the walls everywhere, Ezekiel 41:17-18, 20, 25-26.

Exodus 15

Studie

   

1 Then Moses and the children of Israel sang this song to Yahweh, and said, "I will sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea.

2 Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation. This is my God, and I will praise him; my father's God, and I will exalt him.

3 Yahweh is a man of war. Yahweh is his name.

4 He has cast Pharaoh's chariots and his army into the sea. His chosen captains are sunk in the Red Sea.

5 The deeps cover them. They went down into the depths like a stone.

6 Your right hand, Yahweh, is glorious in power. Your right hand, Yahweh, dashes the enemy in pieces.

7 In the greatness of your excellency, you overthrow those who rise up against you. You send forth your wrath. It consumes them as stubble.

8 With the blast of your nostrils, the waters were piled up. The floods stood upright as a heap. The deeps were congealed in the heart of the sea.

9 The enemy said, 'I will pursue. I will overtake. I will divide the spoil. My desire shall be satisfied on them. I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.'

10 You blew with your wind. The sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters.

11 Who is like you, Yahweh, among the gods? Who is like you, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

12 You stretched out your right hand. The earth swallowed them.

13 "You, in your loving kindness, have led the people that you have redeemed. You have guided them in your strength to your holy habitation.

14 The peoples have heard. They tremble. Pangs have taken hold on the inhabitants of Philistia.

15 Then the chiefs of Edom were dismayed. Trembling takes hold of the mighty men of Moab. All the inhabitants of Canaan are melted away.

16 Terror and dread falls on them. By the greatness of your arm they are as still as a stone-- until your people pass over, Yahweh, until the people pass over who you have purchased.

17 You shall bring them in, and plant them in the mountain of your inheritance, the place, Yahweh, which you have made for yourself to dwell in; the sanctuary, Lord, which your hands have established.

18 Yahweh shall reign forever and ever."

19 For the horses of Pharaoh went in with his chariots and with his horsemen into the sea, and Yahweh brought back the waters of the sea on them; but the children of Israel walked on dry land in the midst of the sea.

20 Miriam the prophetess, the sister of Aaron, took a tambourine in her hand; and all the women went out after her with tambourines and with dances.

21 Miriam answered them, "Sing to Yahweh, for he has triumphed gloriously. The horse and his rider he has thrown into the sea."

22 Moses led Israel onward from the Red Sea, and they went out into the wilderness of Shur; and they went three days in the wilderness, and found no water.

23 When they came to Marah, they couldn't drink from the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore its name was called Marah.

24 The people murmured against Moses, saying, "What shall we drink?"

25 Then he cried to Yahweh. Yahweh showed him a tree, and he threw it into the waters, and the waters were made sweet. There he made a statute and an ordinance for them, and there he tested them;

26 and he said, "If you will diligently listen to the voice of Yahweh your God, and will do that which is right in his eyes, and will pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of the diseases on you, which I have put on the Egyptians; for I am Yahweh who heals you."

27 They came to Elim, where there were twelve springs of water, and seventy palm trees: and they encamped there by the waters.
