Бытие 15

Studie

   

1 Послј сихъ происшествій, было слово Іеговы къ Авраму въ видјніи, и сказано: не бойся, Аврамъ; Я твой щитъ; награда твоя весьма велика.

2 Аврамъ сказалъ: Господи Іегова! что Ты дашь мнј? я отхожу бездјтенъ; за домоиъ моимъ смотритъ этотъ Эліезеръ изъ Дамаска.

3 И сказалъ Аврамъ: вотъ Ты не далъ мнј дјтей; и вотъ домочадецъ мой будетъ моимъ наслјдникомъ.

4 И се слово Іеговы къ нему, и сказано: не будетъ онъ твоимъ наслјдникомъ; но тотъ, кто произойдетъ изъ чреслъ твоихъ, будетъ твоимъ наслјдникомъ.

5 И вывелъ его на дворъ и сказалъ: посмотри на небеса, и сочти звјзды; можешь ли ты счесть ихъ? И сказалъ ему: столько будетъ у тебя потомковъ.

6 Аврамъ повјрилъ Іеговј; и Онъ вмјнилъ ему сіе въ праведность.

7 И сказалъ ему: Я Іегова, Который вывелъ тебя изъ Ура Халдейскаго, чтобы дать тебј землю сію въ наслјдіе.

8 Онъ сказалъ: Господи Іегова! почему мнј узнать, что я долженъ ее наслјдовать?

9 Іегова отвјтствовалъ ему: возми Мнј трилјтнюю телицу, трилјтнюю козу, трилјтняго овна, горлицу и молодаго голубя.

10 И взялъ онъ всјхъ ихъ, и разсјкъ ихъ пополамъ, и положилъ одну часть противъ другой, только птицъ не разсјкъ.

11 И налетјли на трупы хищныя птицы: но Аврамъ отгонялъ ихъ.

12 При захожденіи солнца, сонъ напалъ на Аврама; и се, нашелъ на него ужасъ и мракъ великій.

13 Тогда сказано Авраму: знай, что потомки твои будутъ пришельцами въ землј чужой; и будутъ въ порабощеніи и въ угнетеніи четыреста лјтъ.

14 Но Я произведу судъ надъ народомъ, у котораго они будутъ въ порабощеніи; послј сего они выдутъ съ великимъ богатствомъ.

15 А ты отъидешь къ отцамъ своимъ въ мирј, будешь погребенъ въ старости доброй.

16 Въ четвертомъ родј возвратятся они сюда: ибо нынј мјра беззаконія Аморрейскаго еще не наполнилась.

17 Наконецъ зашло солнце и наступилъ мракъ; и се, дымъ какъ бы изъ пещи, и свјтильникъ огненный, который прошелъ между разсјченными животными.

18 Въ сей день заключилъ Іегова завјтъ съ Аврамомъ, сказавъ: потомству твоему даю Я землю сію, отъ рјки Египетской до великой рјки Евфрата:

19 Кенеевъ, Кенезеевъ, Кедмонеевъ,

20 Хеттеевъ, Ферезеевъ, Рефаимовъ,

21 Аморреевъ, Хананеевъ, Гергесеевъ и Іевусеевъ.

Exploring the Meaning of Genesis 15

Napsal(a) New Christian Bible Study Staff

Here are some excerpts from Swedenborg's "Arcana Coelestia" that help explain the inner meaning of this chapter:

AC 1778. Here in the internal sense are continued the things concerning the Lord after He had endured in childhood the most severe combats of temptations, which were directed against the love which He cherished toward the whole human race, and in particular toward the church; and therefore being anxious concerning their future state a promise was made Him but it was shown at the same time what the state of the church would become toward its end when it would begin to expire; but that still a new church should revive, which would take the place of the former, and the heavenly kingdom would be immensely increased.

AC 1779. The Lord‘s consolation after the combats of temptations described (verse 1).

AC 1780. The Lord’s complaint respecting the church, that it was in externals only (verses 2, 3). A promise concerning an internal church (verse 4). Concerning its multiplication (verse 5). That the Lord is righteousness (verse 6). And unto Him alone belongs the kingdom in the heavens and on earth (verse 7).

AC 1781. And as He desired to be assured that the human race would be saved (verse 8), it was shown Him how the case is with the church, in general, specifically, and in particular (verses 9 to 17).

AC 1782. The "heifer," "she-goat," and "ram," are the representatives of the celestial things of the church; the "turtledove" and the "young pigeon" are the representatives of its spiritual things (verse 9). The church was on one side, and the Lord on the other (verse 10). The Lord would dissipate evils and falsities (verse 11). But the falsities would still infest it (verses 12, 13). From these there should be deliverance (verse 14). Thus the Lord received consolation (verse 15). But that evils would take possession (verse 16). And at last nothing hut falsities and cupidities would reign (verse 17). Then would come the Lord‘s kingdom, and a new church, the extension of which is described (verse 18). The falsities and evils to be expelled from it are the nations named (verses 19 to 21).

1781. And because He wished to be quite certain that the human race would be saved, verse 8, He was shown the situation with regard to the Church in general, specifically, and in particular, verses 9-17.
