Исход 7

Studie

   

1 Но Іегова сказалъ Моисею: смотри, Я поставлю тебя богомъ Фараону; а Ааронъ, братъ твой, будетъ твоимъ пророкомъ.

2 Ты будешь говорить все, что Я повелю тебј: а Ааронъ братъ твой будетъ говорить Фараону, чтобы онъ отпустилъ сыновъ Израилевыхъ изъ земли своей.

3 Но Я ожесточу сердце Фараоново, и явлю множество знаменій Моихъ въ землј Египетской.

4 Фараонъ не послушаетъ васъ, и Я простру руку Мою на Египетъ. И чрезъ великіе суды выведу воинство Мое, народъ Мой, сыновъ Израилевыхъ изъ земли Египетской.

5 Тогда узнаютъ Египтяне, что Я Іегова, когда простру руку Мою на Египетъ; и выведу сыновъ Израилевыхъ изъ среды ихъ.

6 Такъ и сдјлалъ Моисей и Ааронъ; какъ повелјлъ имъ Іегова, такъ они и сдјлали.

7 Моисей былъ осмидесяти лјтъ, а Ааронъ осмидесяти трехъ лјтъ, когда начали говорить они Фараону.

8 И сказалъ Іегова Моисею и Аарону, говоря:

9 если Фараонъ скажетъ вамъ: сдјлайте чудо: то ты скажи Аарону: возьми посохъ свой, и брось предъ Фараономъ: онъ сдјлается зміемъ.

10 Моисей и Ааронъ пришли къ Фараону, и сдјлали такъ, какъ повелјлъ Іегова; и бросилъ Ааронъ посохъ свой предъ Фараономъ, и предъ рабами его, и онъ сдјлался змјемъ.

11 И призвалъ Фараонъ мудрецовъ и чародјевъ; и сдјлали сіи тайновјдцы Египетскіе тоже своими обаяніями.

12 Каждый изъ нихъ бросилъ свой посохъ, и они сдјлались змјями; но посохъ Аароновъ поглотилъ ихъ посохи.

13 Сердце Фараоново ожесточилось, и онъ не послушалъ ихъ, такъ какъ и говорилъ Іегова.

14 И сказалъ Іегова Моисею: упорно сердце Фараоново, онъ не хочетъ отпустить народъ.

15 Поди къ Фараону завтра: вотъ онъ пойдетъ къ водј, ты встрјть его на берегу рјки. Посохъ же, который превращался въ змјя, возьми въ руку твою.

16 И скажи ему: Іегова, Богъ Евреевъ, послалъ меня къ тебј, сказать: отпусти народъ Мой, чтобы онъ совершилъ Мнј служеніе въ пустынј: но вотъ, ты доселј непослушенъ.

17 Такъ говорить Іегова: изъ сего узнаешь, что Я Іегова: вотъ симъ посохомъ, который въ рукј моей, я ударю по водамъ, которыя въ рјкј, и онј превратятся въ кровь.

18 И рыба въ рјкј помретъ, и рјка возсмердйтъ, и для Египтянъ тяжело будетъ пить воду изъ рјки.

19 И сказалъ Іегова Моисею: скажи Аарону: возьми посохъ твой, и простри руку твою на воды Египтянъ: на рјки ихъ, на потоки ихъ, на озера ихъ и на всякое собраніе водъ ихъ; и превратятся въ кровь, и будетъ кровь по всей землј Египетской ,и въ деревј и въ камнј.

20 Такъ и сдјлали Моисей и Ааронъ, какъ повелјлъ Іегова. И поднялъ Ааронъ посохъ, и ударилъ по водамъ рјки предъ глазами Фараона и предъ глазами рабовъ его, и вся вода въ рјкј превратилась въ кровь.

21 И рыба въ рјкј померла, и рјка возсмердјла: и Египтяне не могли пить воды изъ рјки, и была кровь по всей землј Египетской.

22 И тайновјдцы Египетскіе обаяніями своими сдјлали тоже. И ожесточилось сердце Фараона, и не послушалъ ихъ, такъ какъ и говорилъ Іегова.

23 И оборотился Фараонъ, и пошелъ въ свой домъ; и сердце его не тронулось симъ.

24 И стали копать всј Египтяне около рјки, чтобы найдти воду для питья, потому что не могли пить воды изъ рјки.

25 И исполнилось семь дней послј того, какъ Іегова поразилъ рјку.

7296. And Pharaoh called also the wise men and the sorcerers. That this signifies abuse of Divine order, is evident from the signification of “the wise men,” as being those who are in the knowledge of spiritual things, and of their correspondence with natural things; they who investigated and taught such things were called “wise” among them, for they were things mystical. And because the Egyptians paid great attention to such things, they called themselves “son of the wise,” and “of the kings of old,” as is plain in Isaiah:

How say ye unto Pharaoh, A son of the wise am I, a son of kings of old (Isaiah 19:11).

The Egyptians called the knowledges of things “wisdom,” as also did the Chaldeans (Jeremiah 50:35). And from the signification of “sorcerers,” as being those who pervert Divine order, thus who pervert the laws of order. That sorcery and magic are nothing else, can be seen from sorcerers, especially in the other life where they abound. For they who in the life of the body have practiced cunning, and have devised various arts for defrauding others, and at last from their success have attributed all things to their own prudence, in the other life learn magic, which is nothing but abuse of Divine order, especially of correspondences. For it is according to Divine order that each and all things correspond; as for example, the hands, arms, and shoulders correspond to power, and from this so does a rod; and therefore they form for themselves rods, and also representatively present shoulders, arms, and hands, and in this way exercise magical power; and so in thousands of other things. There is abuse of order and of correspondences when things of order are not applied to good ends, but to evil ones, as to that of exercising command over others, and to that of destroying; for the end of order is salvation, thus to do good to all. From this then it is evident what is meant by the abuse of order which is signified by “sorcerers.”

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.
