Бытие 33

Studie

   

1 И возвелъ Іаковъ очи свои, и видитъ, и вотъ идетъ Исавъ, и съ нимъ четыреста человјкъ. Тогда онъ раздјлилъ дјтей - Ліи, Рахили и двумъ служанкамъ;

2 и поставилъ служанокъ и дјтей ихъ впереди, Лію и дјтей ея за нпми, а Рахиль и Іосифа позади.

3 А самъ пошелъ передъ ними, и поклонился до земли семь разъ, подходя къ брату своему.

4 Исавъ побјжалъ ему на встрјчу, обнялъ его, бросился ему на шею, и цјловалъ его, и плакали.

5 И возведши очи свои, увидјдъ женъ и дјтей, и спросидъ: кто это у тебя? Іаковъ отвјчалъ: дјти, которыхъ Богъ даровалъ рабу твоему.

6 И подошли служанки, сами и дјти ихъ, и поклонились.

7 Потомъ подошла Лія, и дјти ея, и поклонились. Наконецъ подошли Іосифъ и Рахиль и поклонились.

8 Еще спросилъ: что значитъ у тебя все это ополченіе, съ которымъ я встрјтился? онъ отвјчалъ: дабы обрјсти благодать въ очахъ господина моего.

9 Исавъ сказалъ: у меня много, братецъ; пусть твое - у тебя.

10 Но Іаковъ сказалъ: нјтъ, сдјлай милость; если я обрјлъ благоволеніе въ очахъ твоихъ, прими даръ мой отъ руки моей; ибо я увидјлъ лице твое, какъ бы кто увидјлъ лице Божіе, и ты принялъ меня милостиво.

11 Прими благословеніе мое, которое представлено тебј; потому что Богъ даровалъ мнј, и есть у меня все. И принудилъ его, и онъ взялъ.

12 Исавъ сказалъ: поднимемся в пойдемъ; и я пойду предъ тобою.

13 Онъ отвјчалъ ему: господинъ мой знаетъ, что дјти мои молоды, а мелкій и крупный скотъ дойный; если погнать его одинъ день, то помретъ весь скотъ.

14 Пусть господинъ мой пойдетъ впереди раба своего, а я пойду тихимъ шагомъ своимъ, какъ пойдетъ скотъ, который передо мною, и какъ пойдутъ дјти; и приду къ господину моему въ Сеиръ.

15 Исавъ сказалъ: такъ я оставлю съ тобою нјсколько изъ людей, которые при мнј. Онъ отвјчалъ: на что это? только бы мнј обрјсти благоволеніе въ очахъ господина моего!

16 И возвратился Исавъ въ тотъ же день путемъ своимъ въ Сеиръ.

17 А Іаковъ пошелъ въ Сюкоѕъ, и построилъ себј домъ, и для скота своего сдјлалъ дворы. Отъ сего дано имя мјсту: Сюкоѕъ.

18 Іаковъ, пришедши изъ Падан-Арама, въ мирј пришелъ въ городъ Сихемъ, который въ землј Ханаанской, и расположился противъ города.

19 И купилъ часть поля, на которомъ онъ раскинулъ шатеръ свой, у сыновъ Эммора, отца Сихемова, за сто монетъ.

20 И поставилъ тамъ жертвенникъ; и назвалъ его: Богъ крјпкій, Богъ Израилевъ.

Shechem

  

'Shechem,' as in Genesis 37:12, signifies earliest basics of the doctrine concerning faith. The earliest basics are also the common, or general, principles of doctrinal things. These common, or general, principles are what are received first. Special, or particular, principles follow afterwards.

In Genesis 12:6, 'Abram's passing through the land unto the place Shechem' signifies a new state of the Lord when the celestial aspects of love first appeared to Him which is what Shechem signifies. This is the first stop in the land of Canaan, when coming from Syria, or Haran.

'Shechem' the son of Hamor in Genesis 34:2 signifies the truth of the church from ancient times.

In Genesis 33:17-20, Psalms 60:6-8 and 108:7-9, Shechem signifies the first dawn of light.

(Odkazy: Arcana Coelestia 1441, Genesis 6; Joshua 1, 7, 20, 20:7, 21, 21:21, 24:1, 24, 24:25)

Joshua 1

Studie

1 Now it happened after the death of Moses the servant of Yahweh, that Yahweh spoke to Joshua the son of Nun, Moses' servant, saying,

2 "Moses my servant is dead; now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, you, and all this people, to the land which I give to them, even to the children of Israel.

3 I have given you every place that the sole of your foot will tread on, as I told Moses.

4 From the wilderness, and this Lebanon, even to the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and to the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border.

5 No man will be able to stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not fail you nor forsake you.

6 "Be strong and courageous; for you shall cause this people to inherit the land which I swore to their fathers to give them.

7 Only be strong and very courageous, to observe to do according to all the law, which Moses my servant commanded you. Don't turn from it to the right hand or to the left, that you may have good success wherever you go.

8 This book of the law shall not depart out of your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then you shall make your way prosperous, and then you shall have good success.

9 Haven't I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don't be afraid, neither be dismayed: for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go."

10 Then Joshua commanded the officers of the people, saying,

11 "Pass through the midst of the camp, and command the people, saying, 'Prepare food; for within three days you are to Pass over this Jordan, to go in to possess the land, which Yahweh your God gives you to possess it.'"

12 Joshua spoke to the Reubenites, and to the Gadites, and to the half-tribe of Manasseh, saying,

13 "Remember the word which Moses the servant of Yahweh commanded you, saying, 'Yahweh your God gives you rest, and will give you this land.

14 Your wives, your little ones, and your livestock, shall live in the land which Moses gave you beyond the Jordan; but you shall pass over before your brothers armed, all the mighty men of valor, and shall help them

15 until Yahweh has given your brothers rest, as he has given you, and they have also possessed the land which Yahweh your God gives them. Then you shall return to the land of your possession, and possess it, which Moses the servant of Yahweh gave you beyond the Jordan toward the sunrise.'"

16 They answered Joshua, saying, "All that you have commanded us we will do, and wherever you send us we will go.

17 Just as we listened to Moses in all things, so will we listen to you. Only may Yahweh your God be with you, as he was with Moses.

18 Whoever rebels against your commandment, and doesn't listen to your words in all that you command him, he shall be put to death. Only be strong and courageous."
