Ponovljeni Zakon 18

Studie

   

1 Sveštenici, Leviti i sve pleme Levijevo da nemaju deo ni nasledstvo s ostalim sinovima Izrailjevim; neka jedu ognjene žrtve Gospodnje i njegovo nasledstvo.

2 Nasledstvo, dakle, da nemaju među braćom svojom: Gospod je nasledstvo njihovo, kao što im je kazao.

3 Ali ovo pripada sveštenicima od naroda, od onih koji prinesu žrtvu, bilo vola ili jagnje: da se daje svešteniku pleće i obe vilice i želudac.

4 Prvine od žita svog, od vina svog i od ulja svog, i prvine od vune s ovaca svojih podaj mu.

5 Jer njega izabra Gospod Bog tvoj između svih plemena tvojih da stoji i služi u ime Gospodnje on i sinovi njegovi doveka.

6 I kad dođe koji Levit iz kog god mesta tvog iz svega Izrailja, gde nastava, kad dođe po želji duše svoje u mesto koje izabere Gospod,

7 Neka služi u ime Gospoda Boga svog kao i druga braća, njegova Leviti, koji onde stoje pred Gospodom.

8 Neka jedu jednak deo, osim onog što bi koje prodao u porodici otaca svojih.

9 Kad uđeš u zemlju koju ti Gospod Bog tvoj daje, ne uči se činiti gadna dela onih naroda.

10 Neka se ne nađe u tebe koji bi vodio sina svog ili kćer svoju kroz oganj, ni vračar, ni koji gata po zvezdama, ni koji gata po pticama, ni uročnik,

11 Ni bajač, ni koji se dogovara sa zlim duhovima, ni opsenar ni koji pita mrtve.

12 Jer je gad pred Gospodom ko god tako čini, i za takve gadove tera te narode Gospod Bog tvoj ispred tebe.

13 Drži se sasvim Gospoda Boga svog.

14 Jer ti narodi koje ćeš naslediti, slušaju gatare i vračare; a tebi to ne dopušta Gospod Bog tvoj.

15 Proroka isred tebe, između braće tvoje, kao što sam ja, podignuće ti Gospod Bog tvoj; njega slušajte,

16 Po svemu što si iskao od Gospoda Boga svog na Horivu na dan sabora svog govoreći: Da više ne čujem glas Gospoda Boga svog i da više ne gledam oganj taj veliki, da ne poginem.

17 Zato mi reče Gospod: Dobro rekoše šta rekoše.

18 Proroka ću im podignuti između braće njihove, kao što si ti, i metnuću reči svoje u usta njegova, i kazivaće im sve što mu zapovedim.

19 A ko god ne bi poslušao reči moje, koje će govoriti u moje ime, od toga ću ja tražiti.

20 Ali prorok koji bi se usudio govoriti šta u moje ime što mu ja ne zapovedim da govori, ili koji bi govorio u ime drugih bogova, takav prorok da se pogubi.

21 Ako li kažeš u srcu svom: Kako ćemo poznati reč koje nije Gospod rekao?

22 Šta bi prorok rekao u ime Gospodnje, pa se ne zbude i ne navrši se, to je reč koje nije rekao Gospod; nego je iz oholosti rekao onaj prorok, ne boj ga se.

3. Christ

1. The Lord is called in many places Jehovah, Jehovah of hosts, and in particular God, the God of Israel, the Holy One, and the Holy One of Israel, and Lord, the Rock, Angel, the Arm of Jehovah, Prophet, the Son of man, while very frequently Jehovah is named, even He, since they are one - the Mighty One of Jacob, the Rock of Jacob. Therefore in general by Jehovah the Father Himself, and Lord are at the same time meant, as is clear from the following passages.

Jesus was taken up into heaven, and a cloud received Him, and then two angels said, This Jesus shall so come as ye have seen him going into heaven (Acts of the Apostles 1:9, 11).

Jesus rose from the dead according to the prophecy through David (Psalms 16:10), and that there Christ is meant and not David (Acts of the Apostles 2:27-29, 31; 13:24-37). Then said Jehovah, the Lord said unto my Lord, Sit at My right hand until I make Thine enemies Thy footstool (Psalms 110:1; Acts of the Apostles 2:34, 35).

The Lord our God (Acts of the Apostles 2:39). He is the Lord of all (Acts of the Apostles 10:36).

Ye have slain the Prince of life (Acts of the Apostles 3:15).

That when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord, he may send Jesus Christ which before was preached unto you, whom the heaven must receive until the time of the restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all the prophets from of old (Acts of the Apostles 3:20, 21).

Moses said, The Lord your God will raise up unto you a Prophet from your brethren, unto him ye shall hearken, whatever soul shall not hearken to that Prophet, he shall be destroyed from among the people; all the prophets have foretold him (Deuteronomy 18:15, 18-19; Acts of the Apostles 3:22-24).

Prediction from Isaiah (53:7-9), the Lord would suffer (Acts of the Apostles 8:32, 33).

Christ was the Son of God (Acts of the Apostles 8:37; 9:20).

Jesus is the Lord of all (Acts of the Apostles 10:36). He is the Judge of the living and the dead (verse 42).

They were called Christians first in Antioch (Acts of the Apostles 11:26). Paul explains the saying, this day have I begotten thee (Psalms 2:7) as referring to Jesus (Acts of the Apostles 13:33).

He is called the light of the nations, for salvation to the uttermost part of the earth (Isaiah 49:6; Acts of the Apostles 13:47).

The coming of the Lord for the rebuilding of the ruins (Amos 9:11; quoted Acts of the Apostles 15:16, 17).

Paul said that he was ready to be bound and die for the name of the Lord Jesus (Acts of the Apostles 21:13).

Paul at Rome preaching the kingdom of God, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Christ (Acts of the Apostles 28:31).

In the Acts of the Apostles it is said that they preached the Lord Christ only, and that they should believe in Him, and nowhere that they should believe in God the Father.

4 Make a joyful noise to Yahweh, all the earth! Burst out and sing for joy, yes, sing praises!

5 Sing praises to Yahweh with the harp, with the harp and the voice of melody.

6 With trumpets and sound of the ram's horn, make a joyful noise before the King, Yahweh.

7 Let the sea roar with its fullness; the world, and those who dwell therein.

8 Let the rivers clap their hands. Let the mountains sing for joy together.
