Ponovljeni Zakon 14

Studie

   

1 Vi ste sinovi Gospoda Boga svog; nemojte se rezati niti brijati među očima za mrtvacem.

2 Jer si narod svet Gospodu Bogu svom, i tebe izabra Gospod da si mu narod osobit između svih naroda na zemlji.

3 Ne jedi ništa gadno.

4 Ovo su životinje koje ćete jesti: goveče, ovcu, kozu,

5 Jelena, srnu, bivola, divokozu, jednoroga i kozu kamenjaču;

6 I sve životinje koje imaju papke rascepljene na dvoje, i koje preživaju između životinja, njih jedite.

7 Ali ne jedite one koje samo preživaju ili koje samo imaju papke rascepljene na dvoje, kao: kamilu, zeca, pitomog zeca, jer preživaju, a nemaju papke razdvojene; da vam je nečisto;

8 Ni svinjče, jer ima razdvojene papke, ali ne preživa; da vam je nečisto; meso od njega ne jedite, i strva se njegovog ne dohvatajte.

9 A između onih što su u vodi, jedite ove: šta god ima pera i ljuske, jedite;

10 A što nema pera i ljuske, ne jedite; da vam je nečisto.

11 Sve ptice čiste jedite;

12 A ove ne jedite: orla, ni jastreba, ni morskog orla,

13 Ni sokola, ni eju, ni kraguja po vrstama njihovim,

14 Ni gavrana po vrstama njegovim,

15 Ni ćuka, ni sovuljagu, ni lisku, ni kopca po vrstama njegovim,

16 Ni buljinu, ni ražnja, ni labuda,

17 Ni gema, ni svraku, ni gnjurca,

18 Ni rodu, ni čaplju po vrstama njenim, ni pupavca, ni ljiljka.

19 I sve bubine krilate da su vam nečiste; ne jedite ih.

20 I sve ptice čiste jedite.

21 Ništa mrcino ne jedite; došljaku koji je kod tebe podaj neka jede, ili prodaj tuđinu; jer si narod svet Gospodu Bogu svom; ne kuvaj jare u mleku matere njegove.

22 Desetak daj od svega roda useva svog, što dođe s njive tvoje svake godine.

23 I jedi pred Gospodom Bogom svojim na mestu koje izabere da onde nastani ime svoje, desetak od žita svog, od vina svog i ulja svog, i prvine stoke svoje krupne i sitne, da se učiš bojati se Gospoda Boga svog svagda.

24 Ako bi ti put bio dalek, te ne bi mogao odneti zato što je daleko od tebe mesto, koje izabere Gospod Bog tvoj da onde namesti ime svoje, kad te Gospod Bog tvoj blagoslovi,

25 Onda užini u novac, i uzevši u ruku svoju otidi u mesto koje izabere Gospod Bog tvoj,

26 I za te novce uzmi šta zaželi duša tvoja, goveda, ovaca, vina ili drugog jakog pića, i šta god bi zaželela duša tvoja, pa jedi onde pred Gospodom Bogom svojim, i veseli se ti i dom tvoj.

27 Ali Levita koji bi bio u mestu tvom, nemoj ostaviti jer nema deo ni nasledstvo s tobom.

28 Svake treće godine odvoj sav desetak od dohodaka svojih one godine, i ostavi ga u svom mestu.

29 Pa neka dođu Leviti (jer nemaju deo ni nasledstvo s tobom) i došljaci i sirote i udovice što su u mestu tvom, i neka jedu i nasite se, da bi te blagoslovio Gospod Bog tvoj u svakom poslu ruku tvojih, koji bi radio.

8768. 'You will be to Me a peculiar treasure from among all peoples' means that at that time Divine Truth will exist with them more than with others. This is clear from the meaning of 'being Jehovah's (or the Lord's) peculiar treasure' as being the Lord's, for 'a peculiar treasure' is something especially one's own, and so a possession. Those among whom the Word exists are meant, the reason for this being that those who have the Word, that is, where the Church exists, are called the Lord's own more than others; and that these are called 'His own' is clear from the Lord's words in John 1:11; 10:2-4. The fact that those who belong to the Church, thus with whom the Word exists, are called 'a peculiar treasure' is clear in David,

Jah has chosen Jacob for Himself, and Israel to be His peculiar treasure. Psalms 135:4.

'Jacob' and 'Israel' are plainly those who belong to the Church, among whom the Word exists. Likewise in Moses,

You are a holy people to Jehovah your God; Jehovah your God has chosen you to be for Himself a people who are a peculiar treasure, 1 from among all peoples who are on the face of the earth. Deuteronomy 7:6; 14:2.

[2] The reason why those who have the Word are more than others a peculiar treasure [to the Lord] and especially His own is that they are acquainted with the truths and forms of the good of faith. This being so, they are able more than others to lead the life of heaven and so be joined to the Lord. For the good that constitutes heaven with a person receives its specific quality from the truths of faith. Thus good becomes more heavenly or more Divine among those who possess genuine truths, which are truths drawn from the Word, though only if they keep them, that is, lead a life in accordance with them. This is shown to be so in Moses,

Today you have declared that Jehovah is your God, and that you will go in His ways, and will keep His statutes, and His commandments, and His judgements, and will obey His voice. And Jehovah declares to you today that you are for Him a people who are a peculiar treasure, 1 as He has told you, and that you should keep all His commandments. Deuteronomy 26:17-18.
