Izlazak 12

Studie

   

1 I reče Gospod Mojsiju i Aronu u zemlji misirskoj govoreći:

2 Ovaj mesec da vam je početak mesecima, da vam je prvi mesec u godini.

3 Kažite svemu zboru Izrailjevom i recite: Desetog dana ovog meseca svaki neka uzme jagnje ili jare, po porodicama, po jedno na dom;

4 Ako li je dom mali za jagnje ili jare, neka uzme k sebi suseda, koji mu je najbliži, s onoliko duša koliko treba da mogu pojesti jagnje ili jare.

5 A jagnje ili jare da vam bude zdravo, muško, od godine; između ovaca ili između koza uzmite.

6 I čuvajte ga do četrnaestog dana ovog meseca, a tada savkoliki zbor Izrailjev neka ga zakolje uveče.

7 I neka uzmu krvi od njega i pokrope oba dovratka i gornji prag na kućama u kojima će ga jesti.

8 I neka jedu meso iste noći, na vatri pečeno, s hlebom presnim i sa zeljem gorkim neka jedu.

9 Nemojte jesti sirovo ni u vodi kuvano, nego na vatri pečeno, s glavom i s nogama i s drobom.

10 I ništa nemojte ostaviti do jutra; ako li bi šta ostalo do jutra, spalite na vatri.

11 A ovako jedite: opasani, obuća da vam je na nogu i štap u ruci, i jedite hitno, jer je prolazak Gospodnji.

12 Jer ću proći po zemlji misirskoj tu noć, i pobiću sve prvence u zemlji misirskoj od čoveka do živinčeta, i sudiću svim bogovima misirskim, ja Gospod.

13 A krv ona biće vam znak na kućama, u kojima ćete biti; i kad vidim krv, proći ću vas, te neće biti među vama pomora, kad stanem ubijati po zemlji misirskoj.

14 I taj će vam dan biti za spomen, i praznovaćete ga Gospodu od kolena do kolena; praznujte ga zakonom večnim.

15 Sedam dana jedite hlebove presne, i prvog dana uklonite kvasac iz kuća svojih; jer ko bi god jeo šta s kvascem od prvog dana do sedmog, istrebiće se ona duša iz Izrailja.

16 Prvi dan biće sveti sabor; tako i sedmi dan imaćete sveti sabor; nikakav posao da se ne radi u te dane, osim šta treba za jelo svakoj duši, to ćete samo gotoviti.

17 I držite dan presnih hlebova, jer u taj dan izvedoh vojske vaše iz zemlje misirske; držite taj dan od koljena do koljena zakonom večnim.

18 Prvog meseca četrnaesti dan uveče počnite jesti presne hlebove pa do dvadeset prvog dana istog meseca uveče.

19 Za sedam dana da se ne nađe kvasca u kućama vašim; jer ko bi god jeo šta s kvascem, istrebiće se ona duša iz zbora Izrailjevog, bio došljak ili rođen u zemlji.

20 Ništa s kvascem nemojte jesti, nego jedite hleb presan po svim stanovima svojim.

21 I sazva Mojsije sve starešine izrailjske, i reče im: Izberite i uzmite sebi jagnje ili jare po porodicama svojim, i zakoljite pashu.

22 I uzmite kitu isopa i zamočite je u krv, koja će biti u zdeli, i pokropite gornji prag i oba dovratka krvlju, koja će biti u zdeli, i nijedan od vas da ne izlazi na vrata kućna do jutra.

23 Jer će izaći Gospod da bije Misir, pa kad vidi krv na gornjem pragu i na oba dovratka, proći će Gospod mimo ona vrata, i neće dati krvniku da uđe u kuće vaše da ubija.

24 I držite ovo kao zakon tebi i sinovima tvojim doveka.

25 I kad dođete u zemlju koju će vam dati Gospod, kao što je kazao, držite ovu službu.

26 I kad vam kažu sinovi vaši: Kakva vam je to služba?

27 Recite: Ovo je žrtva za prolazak Gospodnji, kad prođe kuće sinova Izrailjevih u Misiru ubijajući Misirce, a domove naše sačuva. Tada narod savi glavu i pokloni se.

28 I otidoše i učiniše sinovi Izrailjevi, kako zapovedi Gospod preko Mojsija i Arona, tako učiniše.

29 A oko ponoći pobi Gospod sve prvence u zemlji misirskoj od prvenca Faraonovog koji htede sedeti na prestolu njegovom do prvenca sužnja u tamnici, i šta god beše prvenac od stoke.

30 Tada usta Faraon one noći, on i sve sluge njegove i svi Misirci, i bi vika velika u Misiru, jer ne beše kuće u kojoj ne bi mrtvaca.

31 I dozva Mojsija i Arona po noći i reče: Ustajte, idite iz naroda mog i vi i sinovi Izrailjevi, i otidite, poslužite Gospodu, kao što govoriste.

32 Uzmite i ovce svoje i goveda svoja, kao što govoriste, i idite, pa i mene blagoslovite.

33 I Misirci navaljivahu na narod da brže idu iz zemlje, jer govorahu: Izgibosmo svi.

34 I narod uze testo svoje još neuskislo, umotavši ga u haljine svoje, na ramena svoja.

35 I učiniše sinovi Izrailjevi po zapovesti Mojsijevoj, i zaiskaše u Misiraca nakita srebrnih i nakita zlatnih i haljina.

36 I Gospod učini, te narod nađe ljubav u Misiraca, te im dadoše; tako opleniše Misirce.

37 I otidoše sinovi Izrailjevi iz Ramese u Sohot, oko šest stotina hiljada pešaka, samih ljudi osim dece.

38 I drugih ljudi mnogo otide s njima, i stoke sitne i krupne vrlo mnogo.

39 I od testa koje iznesoše iz Misira ispekoše pogače presne, jer ne beše uskislo kad ih poteraše Misirci, te ne mogaše oklevati, niti spremiše sebi brašnjenice.

40 A baviše se sinovi Izrailjevi u Misiru četiri stotine i trideset godina.

41 I kad se navrši četiri stotine i trideset godina, u isti dan izađoše sve vojske Gospodnje iz zemlje misirske.

42 Ta se noćsvetkuje Gospodu, u koju ih izvede iz Misira; to je noćGospodnja, koju treba da svetkuju sinovi Izrailjevi od koljena na koljeno.

43 I reče Gospod Mojsiju i Aronu: Ovo neka bude zakon za pashu: nijedan tuđin da je ne jede;

44 A svaki sluga vaš kupljen za novce, kad ga obrežete, onda neka je jede.

45 Došljak ili najamnik da je ne jede.

46 U istoj kući da se jede, da ne iznesete mesa od nje iz kuće, i kosti da joj ne prelomite.

47 Sav zbor Izrailjev neka čini tako.

48 Ako bi kod tebe sedeo tuđin i hteo bi svetkovati pashu Gospodnju, neka mu se obrežu sve muškinje, pa onda neka pristupi da je svetkuje, i neka bude kao rođen u zemlji; a niko neobrezan da je ne jede.

49 Zakon jedan da je i rođenom u zemlji i došljaku koji sedi među vama.

50 I učiniše svi sinovi Izrailjevi kako zapovedi Gospod Mojsiju i Aronu, tako učiniše.

51 I taj dan izvede Gospod sinove Izrailjeve iz zemlje misirske u četama njihovim.

7893. 'No work shall be done on them' means abstention during that time from earthly and worldly pursuits. This is clear from the meaning of 'work' as toils and endeavours that have things of a worldly and earthly nature in view, and therefore 'no work shall be done on them' means abstention from such pursuits. The reason why they were forbidden so strictly to do any work during feasts and sabbaths was in order that on those occasions a complete representative state, that is, the kinds of things that represented celestial and spiritual realities, might exist among them. That state would have been thrown into disorder if they had done any kinds of work that had the world or earth in view. For the representative acts of the Church among the descendants of Jacob were established in order that through those acts heaven might be put in communication with mankind, the end for which the Church exists. That communication would not have been achieved unless those people had been forbidden under pain of death to do any work on feast and sabbath days. For their minds were firmly fixed on worldly and earthly pursuits in which they engrossed themselves with all their heart, since they were worldly and earthly themselves. If therefore they had been free at the same time on those days to engage in such pursuits, the communication effected through representative acts would have been completely severed and would have ceased to exist. In later times however the same feasts were kept in being for the sake of heavenly life experienced on those occasions, and for the sake of teaching they received then which enabled them to learn what faith and charity were.

Exodus 12

Studie

   

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying,

2 "This month shall be to you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year to you.

3 Speak to all the congregation of Israel, saying, 'On the tenth day of this month, they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to their fathers' houses, a lamb for a household;

4 and if the household is too little for a lamb, then he and his neighbor next to his house shall take one according to the number of the souls; according to what everyone can eat you shall make your count for the lamb.

5 Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male a year old. You shall take it from the sheep, or from the goats:

6 and you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of the same month; and the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill it at evening.

7 They shall take some of the blood, and put it on the two doorposts and on the lintel, on the houses in which they shall eat it.

8 They shall eat the flesh in that night, roasted with fire, and unleavened bread. They shall eat it with bitter herbs.

9 Don't eat it raw, nor boiled at all with water, but roasted with fire; with its head, its legs and its inner parts.

10 You shall let nothing of it remain until the morning; but that which remains of it until the morning you shall burn with fire.

11 This is how you shall eat it: with your belt on your waist, your shoes on your feet, and your staff in your hand; and you shall eat it in haste: it is Yahweh's Passover.

12 For I will go through the land of Egypt in that night, and will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and animal. Against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am Yahweh.

13 The blood shall be to you for a token on the houses where you are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and there shall no plague be on you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.

14 This day shall be to you for a memorial, and you shall keep it a feast to Yahweh: throughout your generations you shall keep it a feast by an ordinance forever.

15 "'Seven days you shall eat unleavened bread; even the first day you shall put away yeast out of your houses, for whoever eats leavened bread from the first day until the seventh day, that soul shall be cut off from Israel.

16 In the first day there shall be to you a holy convocation, and in the seventh day a holy convocation; no kind of work shall be done in them, except that which every man must eat, that only may be done by you.

17 You shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this same day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore you shall observe this day throughout your generations by an ordinance forever.

18 In the first month, on the fourteenth day of the month at evening, you shall eat unleavened bread, until the twenty first day of the month at evening.

19 Seven days shall there be no yeast found in your houses, for whoever eats that which is leavened, that soul shall be cut off from the congregation of Israel, whether he be a foreigner, or one who is born in the land.

20 You shall eat nothing leavened. In all your habitations you shall eat unleavened bread.'"

21 Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said to them, "Draw out, and take lambs according to your families, and kill the Passover.

22 You shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the basin, and strike the lintel and the two doorposts with the blood that is in the basin; and none of you shall go out of the door of his house until the morning.

23 For Yahweh will pass through to strike the Egyptians; and when he sees the blood on the lintel, and on the two doorposts, Yahweh will pass over the door, and will not allow the destroyer to come in to your houses to strike you.

24 You shall observe this thing for an ordinance to you and to your sons forever.

25 It shall happen when you have come to the land which Yahweh will give you, according as he has promised, that you shall keep this service.

26 It will happen, when your children ask you, 'What do you mean by this service?'

27 that you shall say, 'It is the sacrifice of Yahweh's Passover, who passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when he struck the Egyptians, and spared our houses.'" The people bowed their heads and worshiped.

28 The children of Israel went and did so; as Yahweh had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

29 It happened at midnight, that Yahweh struck all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon; and all the firstborn of livestock.

30 Pharaoh rose up in the night, he, and all his servants, and all the Egyptians; and there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where there was not one dead.

31 He called for Moses and Aaron by night, and said, "Rise up, get out from among my people, both you and the children of Israel; and go, serve Yahweh, as you have said!

32 Take both your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone; and bless me also!"

33 The Egyptians were urgent with the people, to send them out of the land in haste, for they said, "We are all dead men."

34 The people took their dough before it was leavened, their kneading troughs being bound up in their clothes on their shoulders.

35 The children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they asked of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothing.

36 Yahweh gave the people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, so that they let them have what they asked. They despoiled the Egyptians.

37 The children of Israel traveled from Rameses to Succoth, about six hundred thousand on foot who were men, besides children.

38 A mixed multitude went up also with them, with flocks, herds, and even very much livestock.

39 They baked unleavened cakes of the dough which they brought forth out of Egypt; for it wasn't leavened, because they were thrust out of Egypt, and couldn't wait, neither had they prepared for themselves any food.

40 Now the time that the children of Israel lived in Egypt was four hundred thirty years.

41 It happened at the end of four hundred thirty years, even the same day it happened, that all the armies of Yahweh went out from the land of Egypt.

42 It is a night to be much observed to Yahweh for bringing them out from the land of Egypt. This is that night of Yahweh, to be much observed of all the children of Israel throughout their generations.

43 Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron, "This is the ordinance of the Passover. No foreigner shall eat of it,

44 but every man's servant who is bought for money, when you have circumcised him, then shall he eat of it.

45 A foreigner and a hired servant shall not eat of it.

46 In one house shall it be eaten; you shall not carry forth anything of the flesh abroad out of the house; neither shall you break a bone of it.

47 All the congregation of Israel shall keep it.

48 When a stranger shall live as a foreigner with you, and will keep the Passover to Yahweh, let all his males be circumcised, and then let him come near and keep it; and he shall be as one who is born in the land: but no uncircumcised person shall eat of it.

49 One law shall be to him who is born at home, and to the stranger who lives as a foreigner among you."

50 All the children of Israel did so. As Yahweh commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

51 It happened the same day, that Yahweh brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies.
