Иоиль 3

Studie

   

1 Ибо вот, в те дни и в то самое время, когда Я возвращу плен Иуды и Иерусалима,

2 Я соберу все народы, и приведу их в долину Иосафата, и там произведу над ними суд за народ Мой и за наследие Мое, Израиля, который они рассеяли между народами, и землю Мою разделили.

3 И о народе Моем они бросали жребий, и отдавали отрока за блудницу, и продавали отроковицу за вино, и пили.

4 И что вы Мне, Тир и Сидон и все округи Филистимские? Хотите ли воздать Мне возмездие? хотите ли воздать Мне? Легко и скоро Я обращу возмездие ваше на головы ваши,

5 потому что вы взяли серебро Мое и золото Мое, и наилучшие драгоценности Мои внесли в капища ваши,

6 и сынов Иуды и сынов Иерусалима продавали сынам Еллинов, чтобыудалить их от пределов их.

7 Вот, Я подниму их из того места, куда вы продали их, и обращу мздувашу на голову вашу.

8 И предам сыновей ваших и дочерей ваших в руки сынов Иуды, и они продадут их Савеям, народу отдаленному; так Господь сказал.

9 Провозгласите об этом между народами, приготовьтесь к войне, возбудите храбрых; пусть выступят, поднимутся все ратоборцы.

10 Перекуйте орала ваши на мечи и серпы ваши на копья; слабый пусть говорит: „я силен".

11 Спешите и сходитесь, все народы окрестные, и соберитесь; туда,Господи, веди Твоих героев.

12 Пусть воспрянут народы и низойдут в долину Иосафата; ибо там Я воссяду, чтобы судить все народы отовсюду.

13 Пустите в дело серпы, ибо жатва созрела; идите, спуститесь, ибо точило полно и подточилия переливаются, потому что злоба их велика.

14 Толпы, толпы в долине суда! ибо близок день Господень к долинесуда!

15 Солнце и луна померкнут и звезды потеряют блеск свой.

16 И возгремит Господь с Сиона, и даст глас Свой из Иерусалима;содрогнутся небо и земля; но Господь будет защитою для народа Своего и обороною для сынов Израилевых.

17 Тогда узнаете, что Я Господь Бог ваш, обитающий на Сионе, на святой горе Моей; и будет Иерусалим святынею, и не будут уже иноплеменники проходить через него.

18 И будет в тот день: горы будут капать вином и холмы потекут молоком, и все русла Иудейские наполнятся водою, а из дома Господня выйдет источник, и будет напоять долину Ситтим.

19 Египет сделается пустынею и Едом будет пустою степью – за то, что они притесняли сынов Иудиных и проливали невинную кровь в земле их.

20 А Иуда будет жить вечно и Иерусалим – в роды родов.

21 Я смою кровь их, которую не смыл еще, и Господь будет обитать на Сионе.

82. (i) JEHOVAH GOD CAME DOWN AND TOOK UPON HIMSELF HUMAN FORM, IN ORDER TO REDEEM AND SAVE MANKIND.

Christian churches today believe that God the Creator of the universe fathered a Son from eternity, who came down and took upon Himself human form to redeem and save mankind. But this is an error and collapses of its own accord, so long as the mind concentrates on the oneness of God, and the reason looks upon as fiction or worse the idea that the one God fathered a Son from eternity, and also that God the Father together with the Son and the Holy Spirit, each of whom is severally God, is one God. This fiction is utterly exploded, like a meteorite in the atmosphere, when it is shown from the Word that it was Jehovah God Himself who came down and became man and also was the Redeemer.

[2] The first point, that it was Jehovah God Himself who came down and became man, is established by these passages:

Behold a virgin shall conceive and bear a son, who shall be called God with us, Isaiah 7:14; Matthew 1:23.

A boy is born for us, a son is given to us, on whose shoulder the dominion shall be; and his name shall be called Wonderful, God, Hero, the everlasting Father, the Prince of peace, Isaiah 9:6-7.

On that day it will be said, Behold, He is our God, whom we have awaited to free us. He is Jehovah, whom we have awaited. Let us exult and rejoice in His salvation, Isaiah 25:9.

The voice of one crying in the wilderness, Prepare the way for Jehovah, make smooth in the desert a path for our God; and all flesh shall see it together, Isaiah 40:3, 5.

Behold, the Lord Jehovih comes in strength, and His arm shall bear dominion for Him. Behold, His recompense comes with Him; He will tend His flock like a shepherd, Isaiah 40:10-11.

Jehovah said, Shout for joy and rejoice, daughter of Zion; behold, I come to dwell in your midst; then shall many nations cleave to Jehovah on that day, Zechariah 2:10-11.

I Jehovah have called you in righteousness, and I will give you to be a covenant with the people. I am Jehovah, this is my name; my glory I shall not give to another, Isaiah 42:1, 6-8.

Behold, the days will come when I will raise up for David a righteous shoot, who will reign as king and do judgment and righteousness upon earth; and this is His name, Jehovah our righteousness, Jeremiah 23:5-6; 33:15-16.

There are also the passages where the Lord's coming is called 'the day of Jehovah', as Isaiah 13:6, 9, 13, 22; Ezekiel 31:15; Joel 1:15; 2:1-2, 11, 29, 31; 3:1, 14, 18; Amos 5:13, 18, 20; Zephaniah 1:7-18; Zechariah 14:1, 4-21; and elsewhere.

[3] It is openly stated in Luke that Jehovah Himself came down and took upon Himself human form.

Mary said to the angel, How shall this happen, since I have no knowledge of a man? The angel answered her, The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you, so that the holy thing that is born of you will be called the Son of God, Luke 1:34-35.

And in Matthew the angel said in a dream to Joseph, who was betrothed to Mary, that that which was born of her was of the Holy Spirit; and Joseph did not know her until she had borne a son, and he called His name Jesus, Matthew 1:20, 25. The Holy Spirit means the Divine which proceeds from Jehovah God, as will be seen in Chapter 3 of this book. Everyone knows that a child gets its soul and life from the father, its body from the mother. 1 So how could it be more openly stated that the Lord's soul and life were from Jehovah God, and because the Divine cannot be divided, that the Father's Divine itself was His soul and life? That is why the Lord so many times called Jehovah God His Father, and Jehovah God called Him His Son. Can anything more ridiculous be said than the idea that our Lord's soul was from His mother Mary? Yet such is the dream of both Roman Catholics and Protestants today, and they have not woken up to what is said in the Word.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. Reading ex matre 'from the mother' for ex anima 'from the soul', apparently a repetition from the preceding clause, cf. 92[1]; 103[1].
