Исход 19

Studie

   

1 В третий месяц по исходе сынов Израиля из земли Египетской, всамый день новолуния, пришли они в пустыню Синайскую.

2 И двинулись они из Рефидима, и пришли в пустыню Синайскую, и расположились там станом в пустыне; и расположился там Израиль станом против горы.

3 Моисей взошел к Богу на гору , и воззвал к нему Господь с горы, говоря: так скажи дому Иаковлеву и возвести сынам Израилевым:

4 вы видели, что Я сделал Египтянам, и как Я носил вас как бы на орлиных крыльях, и принес вас к Себе;

5 итак, если вы будете слушаться гласа Моего и соблюдать завет Мой,то будете Моим уделом из всех народов, ибо Моя вся земля,

6 а вы будете у Меня царством священников и народом святым; вот слова, которые ты скажешь сынам Израилевым.

7 И пришел Моисей и созвал старейшин народа и предложил им все сии слова, которые заповедал ему Господь.

8 И весь народ отвечал единогласно, говоря: все, что сказал Господь, исполним. И донес Моисей слова народа Господу.

9 И сказал Господь Моисею: вот, Я приду к тебе в густом облаке, дабыслышал народ, как Я буду говорить с тобою, и поверил тебе навсегда. И Моисей объявил слова народа Господу.

10 И сказал Господь Моисею: пойди к народу, и освяти его сегодня и завтра; пусть вымоют одежды свои,

11 чтоб быть готовыми к третьему дню: ибо в третий день сойдет Господь пред глазами всего народа на гору Синай;

12 и проведи для народа черту со всех сторон и скажи: берегитесь восходить на гору и прикасаться к подошве ее; всякий, ктоприкоснется к горе, предан будет смерти;

13 рука да не прикоснется к нему, а пусть побьют его камнями, или застрелят стрелою; скот ли то, или человек, да не останется в живых; во время протяжного трубного звука могут они взойти на гору.

14 И сошел Моисей с горы к народу и освятил народ, и они вымыли одежду свою.

15 И сказал народу: будьте готовы к третьему дню;не прикасайтесь к женам.

16 На третий день, при наступлении утра, были громы и молнии, и густое облако надгорою, и трубный звук весьма сильный; и вострепетал весь народ, бывший в стане.

17 И вывел Моисей народ из стана в сретение Богу, и стали у подошвы горы.

18 Гора же Синай вся дымилась от того, что Господь сошел на нее в огне; и восходил от нее дым, как дым из печи, и вся Гора сильно колебалась;

19 и звук трубный становился сильнее и сильнее. Моисей говорил, и Бог отвечал ему голосом.

20 И сошел Господь на гору Синай, на вершину горы, и призвал Господь Моисея на вершину горы, и взошел Моисей.

21 И сказал Господь Моисею: сойди и подтверди народу, чтобы он не порывался к Господу видеть Его , и чтобы не пали многие из него;

22 священники же, приближающиеся к Господу, должны освятить себя, чтобы не поразил их Господь.

23 И сказал Моисей Господу: не может народ взойтина гору Синай, потому что Ты предостерег нас, сказав: проведи черту вокруг горы и освяти ее.

24 И Господь сказал ему: пойди, сойди, потом взойди ты и с тобою Аарон; а священники и народ да не порываются восходить к Господу, чтобы непоразил их.

25 И сошел Моисей к народу и пересказал ему.

8806. And sanctified the people. That this signifies the veiling over of the interiors that they may appear to be in the holiness of faith, is evident from what was unfolded above (n. 8788); but it was there set forth what was the sanctification with the Israelitish people, namely, that it was a veiling over of the interiors, so that as to their externals they might appear to be in what was holy when they were in representative worship; and that unless their interiors had then been veiled over, they would not only have defiled the holiness of worship by foul thoughts and evil affections, but would also have totally destroyed it, so that nothing celestial and spiritual which was represented in the external things would have been perceived therefrom in heaven.

[2] But as by “the sons of Israel” are here meant those who are of the spiritual church, it shall be briefly told what is meant by “sanctification” with these. They who are of the spiritual church and live a life of truth and from this a life of good, are withheld from evils and are kept in good by the Lord. The good which is from the Lord is holy with them. Consequently insofar as they receive good from the Lord, so far they are holy; and they receive so much of good from the Lord, that is, are so far holy, as they live a life of good according to the genuine truths of faith, and at the same time believe that all the good which they then think and do is from the Lord. Then, too, evils with them are separated so as not to appear at all, especially those which they have derived hereditarily from parents, and which are filthy, because they have been successively accumulated with the parents for many ages back, and thus amassed in the offspring. These are the interiors which with those who are of the spiritual church are hid away and as it were veiled over (n. 966, 1667, 2307, 2308, 3701, 4317, 8550). Hence it is that all the will they possess hereditarily is destroyed. For this cause a new will is formed with them in the intellectual part by means of truths of faith from the Lord. This is the reason why, when they are being regenerated, they are led by means of truths to good; and afterward when they have been regenerated, from good into the truths of good. Hence it is evident how a new will is created in them by the Lord. (That this is formed in the intellectual part with those who are of the spiritual church, see n. 863, 875, 895, 927, 1023, 1043, 1044, 1555, 2256, 4328, 4493, 5113, 6125)

1555. From the south and even to Bethel. That this signifies from the light of intelligence into the light of wisdom, is evident from the signification of “the south,” as being the light of intelligence, or what is the same, a state of light as to the interiors (spoken of before, n. 1458); and from the signification of “Bethel,” as being celestial light arising from knowledges (concerning which before, n. 1453). That is called the light of intelligence which is procured by means of the knowledges of the truths and goods of faith; but the light of wisdom is that of the life which is thence acquired. The light of intelligence regards the intellectual part, or the understanding; but the light of wisdom regards the will part, or the life.

[2] Few, if any, know how man is brought to true wisdom. Intelligence is not wisdom, but leads to wisdom; for to understand what is true and good is not to be true and good, but to be wise is to be so. Wisdom is predicated only of the life-that the man is such. A man is introduced to wisdom or to life by means of knowing [scire et nosse], that is, by means of knowledges [scientiae et cognitiones]. In every man there are two parts, the will and the understanding; the will is the primary part, the understanding is the secondary one. Man’s life after death is according to his will part, not according to his intellectual part. The will is being formed in man by the Lord from infancy to childhood, which is effected by means of the innocence that is insinuated, and by means of charity toward parents, nurses, and little children of a like age; and by means of many other things that man knows nothing of, and which are celestial. Unless these celestial things were first insinuated into a man while an infant and a child, he could by no means become a man. Thus is formed the first plane.

[3] But as a man is not a man unless he is endowed also with understanding, will alone does not make the man, but understanding together with will; and understanding cannot be acquired except by means of knowledges [scientiae et cognitiones] and therefore he must, from his childhood, be gradually imbued with these. Thus is formed the second plane. When the intellectual part has been instructed in knowledges [scientiae et cognitiones], especially in the knowledges of truth and good, then first can the man be regenerated; and, when he is being regenerated, truths and goods are implanted by the Lord by means of knowledges in the celestial things with which he had been endowed by the Lord from infancy, so that his intellectual things make a one with his celestial things; and when the Lord has thus conjoined these, the man is endowed with charity, from which he begins to act, this charity being of conscience. In this way he for the first time receives new life, and this by degrees. The light of this life is called wisdom, which then takes the first place, and is set over the intelligence. Thus is formed the third plane. When a man has become like this during his bodily life, he is then in the other life being continually perfected. These considerations show what is the light of intelligence, and what the light of wisdom.
