Бытие 40

Studie

   

1 Послј сихъ произшествій случилось, что виночерпій царя Египетскаго и хлјбодаръ провинились предъ господиномъ своимъ, царемъ Египетскимъ.

2 Фараонъ прогнјвался на двухъ евнуховъ своихъ, на главнаго виночерпія и на главпаго хлјбодара.

3 И отдалъ ихъ подъ стражу въ домъ начальника тјлохранителей, въ домъ темничный, въ то же мјсто, гдј заключенъ былъ Іосифъ,

4 Начальникъ тјлохранителей приставилъ къ нимъ Іосифа, и онъ служилъ имъ. Они пробыли подъ стражею нјсколько времени.

5 Однажды виночерпію и хлјбодару царя Египетскаго. заключеннымъ въ домј темничномъ, видјлись сны, каждому свой сонъ, обоимъ въ одну ночь, каждому сонъ особеннаго значенія.

6 Поутру Іосифъ, войдя къ нимъ, посмотрјлъ на нихъ, и вотъ, они въ задумчивости.

7 И такъ онъ спросилъ евнуховъ Фараоновыхъ, находившихся съ нимъ въ домј господина его подъ стражею, говоря: отъ чего у васъ сегодня такія мрачныя лица?

8 Они сказали ему: намъ видјлись сны; а истолковать ихъ не кому. Тогда Іосифъ сказалъ имъ: не отъ Бога ли истолкованія? разскажите мнј.

9 И сталъ главный виночерпій разсказывать Іосифу сонъ свой, и сказалъ ему: мнј видјлось, будто виноградная лоза передо мною.

10 На лозј были три вјтви. Она развилась, показался на ней цвјтъ, выросли и созрјли на ней ягоды.

11 У меня въ рукахъ была чаша Фараонова. Я взялъ ягодъ, выжалъ ихъ въ чашу Фараонову, и подалъ чашу въ руку Фараону.

12 Тогда Іосифъ сказалъ ему: вотъ истолкованіе: три вјтви значатъ три дня.

13 Чрезъ три дня Фараонъ вознесетъ главу твою, и опять поставитъ тебя на мјсто твое, и ты подашь чашу Фараонову въ руку его, по прежнему обыкновенію, какъ ты былъ у него виночерпіемъ.

14 Вспомни же меня, когда хорошо тебј будетъ; и сдјлай мнј благодјяніе, и скажи обо мнј Фараону, и выведи меня изъ этого дома.

15 Ибо я украденъ изъ земли Еврейской; а также и здјсь ничего не сдјлалъ, за что бы бросить меня въ эту яму.

16 Главный хлјбодаръ увидјлъ, что истолкованіе хорошо, и сказалъ Іосифу: а мнј видјлось, будто на головј у меня три корзины рјшетчатыхъ.

17 Въ верхней корзинј была всякая пища Фараонова, приготовленная хлјбодаромъ; и птицы клевали ее изъ корзины на головј моей.

18 Іосифъ отвјчалъ, и сказалъ: вотъ истолкованіе: три корзины значатъ три дня.

19 Чрезъ три дня Фараонъ сниметъ съ тебя голову, и повјситъ тебя на деревј; и птицы будутъ клевать плоть твою съ тебя.

20 На третій день, который былъ день рожденія Фараонова, сдјлалъ онъ пиръ для всјхъ служащихъ у него; и вспомнилъ о главномъ виночерпіи и главномъ хлјбодарј, среди служащихъ у него;

21 и поставилъ главнаго виночерпія на прежнее мјсто, и онъ подалъ чашу въ руку Фараону;

22 а главнаго хлјбодара повјсилъ, такъ какъ истолковалъ имъ Іосифъ.

23 Главный же виночерпій не вспомнилъ Іосифа, но забылъ его.

5082. 'With the chief of the cupbearers and with the chief of the bakers' means in general from the sensory powers subordinate to the understanding part and to the will part. This is clear from the meaning of 'the cupbearer' as the senses subordinate and subject to the understanding, dealt with above in 5077; from the meaning of 'the baker' as the senses subordinate and subject to the will, also dealt with above, in 5078; and from the meaning of 'the chief (or prince)' as that which is first and foremost, dealt with in 1482, 2089, 5044, in this case in general or commonly so throughout; for that which is first and foremost is also common throughout since it reigns throughout the rest of the whole. In relation to particular details, things that are first and foremost exist as what is general and overall, making everything one and removing any signs of incongruity.

4976. 'And ministered to him' means that factual knowledge was assigned to its own good. This is clear from the meaning of 'ministering' as serving by supplying what another has need of, in this case as being assigned to since the subject is natural good to which factual knowledge is to be assigned. 'Ministering' is also used to describe known facts, for in the Word a minister and a servant mean factual knowledge or natural truth because this is subservient to good as its lord. Factual knowledge stands in relation to delight present in the natural man - or what amounts to the same, natural truth stands in relation to its good - in exactly the same way as water does to bread, or drink to food. Water or drink enables bread or food to be dissolved, and once dissolved to be conveyed into the blood, from which it passes into all parts around the body and nourishes them. Without the water or drink the bread or food is not broken down into extremely small particles and carried around the body to fulfill its purpose.

[2] The same applies to factual knowledge in relation to delight, or truth in relation to good. That being so, good longs for and desires truth, and does so because of the purpose such truth can fulfill by ministering to it and serving it. Food and drink also correspond to these. No one in the next life is nourished by any natural food or natural drink, only by spiritual food and spiritual drink, spiritual food being good, and spiritual drink truth. This is why, when bread or food is mentioned in the Word, angels understand spiritual bread or food, which is the good of love and charity; and when water or drink is mentioned they understand spiritual water or drink, which is the truth of faith. From this one may see what the truth of faith without the good of charity is, and also what kind of nourishment the former without the latter is able to supply to the internal man; that is to say, it is like the nourishment supplied by water or drink alone without bread or food. It is well known that a person fed on water or drink alone wastes away and dies.
