Бытие 11

Studie

   

1 Вся земля говорила однимъ языкомъ и однимъ нарјчіемъ.

2 И случилось, что люди, двигнувшись съ Востока, нашли въ землј Сеннааръ равнину и поселились тамъ.

3 И сказали другъ другу: надјлаемъ кирпичей, и обозжемъ огнемъ. Такимъ образомъ кирпичи были у нихъ вмјсто камней, а земляная смола вмјсто извести.

4 Далје они сказали: построимъ себј городъ и башню, высотою до небесъ; и сдјлаемъ себј имя, чтобы намъ не разсјяться по лицу всея земля.

5 Но Іегова сошелъ посмотрјть городъ и башню, которые строили сыны человјческіе.

6 И сказалъ Іегова: вотъ одинъ народъ и одинъ у всјхъ языкъ; и вотъ что начали они дјлать, и не будетъ у нихъ остановки ни въ чемъ, что они вздумали дјлать.

7 Пойдемъ же, и смјшаемъ тамъ языкъ ихъ такъ, чтобы одинъ не понималъ рјчи другаго.

8 Тогда Іегова разсјялъ ихъ оттуда по всей землј; и они перестали строить городъ.

9 Посему дано имя ему Вавилонъ; ибо тамъ смјшалъ Іегова языкъ всей земли, и оттуда разсјялъ ихъ Іегова но всей землј.

10 Вотъ родословіе Сима. Симъ былъ ста лјтъ отъ рожденія, когда родилъ Арфаксада, чрезъ два года послј потопа.

11 По рожденіи Арфаксада, Симъ жилъ пять сотъ лјтъ, и родилъ сыновъ и дочерей.

27 Вотъ родословіе Ѕарры. Ѕарра родилъ Аврама, Нахора и Аррана. Арранъ родилъ Лота.

28 И умеръ Арранъ предъ лицемъ Ѕарры, отца своего, въ землј рожденія своего, въ Урј городј Халдейскомъ.

29 Аврамъ и Нахоръ взяли себј женъ; имя жены Аврамовой: Сара, а имя жены Нахоровой Милка, дочь Аррана, отца Милки и отца Иски.

30 Сара же была неплодна и бездјтна.

31 И взялъ Ѕарра Аврама, сына своего, и Лота, сына Арранова, внука своего, и Сару невјстку свою, жену Аврама сына своего, и вышелъ съ ними изъ Ура Халдейскаго, чтобъ идти въ землю Ханаанскую: но дошедши до Харрана, они остановились тамъ.

32 И бьыо дней житія Ѕаррина двјсти пять лјтъ, и умеръ Ѕарра въ Харранј.

1288. Their words were one. That this signifies that there was one doctrine in particular, is evident from what has been said before; for “a lip” signifies doctrine in general, as was shown; and “words” signify doctrine in particular, or the particulars of doctrine. For the particulars cause no disagreement, provided they look to one end, which is to love the Lord above all things and the neighbor as oneself; for then they are particulars of these generals.

[2] That a “word” signifies all doctrine concerning charity and the derivative faith, and that “words” signify the things which are of doctrine, is evident in David:

I will confess unto Thee with uprightness of heart, when I shall learn the judgments of Thy righteousness; I will keep Thy statutes. Wherewithal shall a child make pure his path? By taking heed according to Thy word. With my whole heart have I sought Thee; make me not to wander from Thy precepts. Thy word have I hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against Thee. Blessed art Thou, O Jehovah; teach me Thy statutes. With my lips have I rehearsed all the judgments of Thy mouth. I have rejoiced in the way of Thy testimonies. I meditate in Thy commandments, and look unto Thy ways. I delight in Thy statutes; I do not forget Thy word (Psalms 119:7-16).

“Word” here denotes doctrine in general. It is evident that a distinction is here made between “precepts,” “judgments,” “testimonies,” “commandments,” “statutes,” “way,” and “lips;” and that all these belong to the Word, or to doctrine. And everywhere else in the Word they signify the same distinct things.

[3] Again:

A song of love. My heart hath willed a good word; my tongue is the pen of a rapid writer. Thou art beauteous above the sons of man; grace is poured upon thy lips. Ride upon the word of truth; and of the gentleness of righteousness; thy right hand shall teach thee wonderful things (Psalms 45:1-2, 4).

“To ride upon the word of truth and of the gentleness of righteousness,” is to teach the doctrine of truth and of good. Here, as elsewhere in the Word, the terms “word,” “lip,” and “tongue” signify distinct things; that they are things of doctrine concerning charity is evident, because it is called “a song of loves.” Of this doctrine is predicated beauty above the sons of man, grace of lips, and a right hand that teacheth wonderful things.

[4] In Isaiah:

Jehovah sent a word unto Jacob, and it hath lighted upon Israel (Isaiah 9:8).

“A word” denotes the doctrine of internal and of external worship; “Jacob” here denotes external worship, and “Israel” internal.

In Matthew:

Jesus said, Man doth not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4).

Again:

When anyone heareth the word of the Kingdom and heedeth it not, then cometh the evil one and snatcheth away that which hath been sown in his heart (Matthew 13:19);

see also concerning “the word” in the same chapter, verses 20-23. Again:

Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away (Matthew 24:35).

In these passages, “the word” denotes the Lord’s doctrine; and “words” the things that belong to His doctrine.

[5] Because the expression “words” denotes all things of doctrine, the commandments of the Decalogue were called “words,” in Moses:

Jehovah wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten words (Exodus 34:28).

Again:

He hath declared unto you His covenant, which He commanded you to perform, the ten words; and He wrote them upon two tables of stone (Deuteronomy 4:13; 10:4).

Again:

Take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the words that thine eyes have seen (Deuteronomy 4:9);

besides other places.
