Izlazak 14

Studie

   

1 I reče Gospod Mojsiju govoreći:

2 Kaži sinovima Izrailjevim neka saviju i stanu u logor pred Pi-Airot između Migdola i mora prema Vel-Sefonu; prema njemu neka stanu u logor pokraj mora.

3 Jer će Faraon reći za sinove Izrailjeve: Zašli su u zemlju, zatvorila ih je pustinja.

4 I učiniću da otvrdne srce Faraonu, te će poći u poteru za vama, i ja ću se proslaviti na njemu i na svoj vojsci njegovoj, i Misirci će poznati da sam ja Gospod. I učiniše tako.

5 A kad bi javljeno caru misirskom da je pobegao narod, promeni se srce Faraonovo i sluga njegovih prema narodu, te rekoše: Šta učinismo, te pustismo Izrailja da nam ne služi?

6 I upreže u kola svoja, i uze narod svoj sa sobom.

7 I uze šest stotina kola izabranih i šta još beše kola misirskih, i nad svima vojvode.

8 I Gospod učini te otvrdnu srce Faraonu caru misirskom, i pođe u poteru za sinovima Izrailjevim, kad sinovi Izrailjevi otidoše pod rukom visokom.

9 I teravši ih Misirci stigoše ih, sva kola Faraonova, konjici njegovi i vojska njegova, kad behu u logoru na moru kod Pi-Airota prema Vel-Sefonu.

10 I kad se približi Faraon, podigoše sinovi Izrailjevi oči svoje a to Misirci idu za njima, i uplašiše se vrlo, i povikaše sinovi Izrailjevi ka Gospodu.

11 I rekoše Mojsiju: Zar ne beše grobova u Misiru, nego nas dovede da izginemo u pustinji? Šta učini, te nas izvede iz Misira.

12 Nismo li ti govorili u Misiru i rekli: Prođi nas se, neka služimo Misircima? Jer bi nam bolje bilo služiti Misircima nego izginuti u pustinji.

13 A Mojsije reče narodu: Ne bojte se, stanite pa gledajte kako će vas Gospod izbaviti danas; jer Misirce koje ste videli danas, nećete ih nikada više videti do veka.

14 Gospod će se biti za vas, a vi ćete ćutati.

15 A Gospod reče Mojsiju: Što vičeš k meni? Kaži sinovima Izrailjevim neka idu.

16 A ti digni štap svoj i pruži ruku svoju na more, i rascepi ga, pa neka idu sinovi Izrailjevi posred mora suvim.

17 I gle, ja ću učiniti da otvrdne srce Misircima, te će poći za njima; i proslaviću se na Faraonu i na svoj vojsci njegovoj, na kolima njegovim i na konjicima njegovim.

18 I Misirci će poznati da sam ja Gospod, kad se proslavim na Faraonu, na kolima njegovim i na konjicima njegovim.

19 I podiže se anđeo Gospodnji, koji iđaše pred vojskom izrailjskom, i otide im za leđa; i podiže se stup od oblaka ispred njih, i stade im za leđa.

20 I došav među vojsku misirsku i vojsku izrailjsku beše onim oblak mračan a ovim svetljaše po noći, te ne pristupiše jedni drugima celu noć.

21 I pruži Mojsije ruku svoju na more, a Gospod uzbi more vetrom istočnim, koji jako duvaše celu noć, i osuši more, i voda se rastupi.

22 I pođoše sinovi Izrailjevi posred mora suvim, i voda im stajaše kao zid s desne strane i s leve strane.

23 I Misirci terajući ih pođoše za njima posred mora, svi konji Faraonovi, kola i konjici njegovi.

24 A u stražu jutarnju pogleda Gospod na vojsku misirsku iz stupa od ognja i oblaka, i smete vojsku misirsku.

25 I pobaca točkove kolima njihovim, te ih jedva vucijahu. Tada rekoše Misirci: Bežimo od Izrailja, jer se Gospod bije za njih s Misircima.

26 A Gospod reče Mojsiju: Pruži ruku svoju na more, neka se vrati voda na Misirce, na kola njihova i na konjike njihove.

27 I Mojsije pruži ruku svoju na more, i dođe opet more na silu svoju pred zoru, a Misirci nagoše bežati prema moru; i Gospod baci Misirce usred mora.

28 A vrativši se voda potopi kola i konjike sa svom vojskom Faraonovom, što ih god beše pošlo za njima u more, i ne osta od njih nijedan.

29 I sinovi Izrailjevi iđahu posred mora suvim; i stajaše im voda kao zid s desne strane i s leve strane.

30 I izbavi Gospod Izrailja u onaj dan iz ruku misirskih; i vide Izrailj mrtve Misirce na bregu morskom.

31 I vide Izrailj silu veliku, koju pokaza Gospod na Misircima, i narod se poboja Gospoda, i verova Gospodu i Mojsiju sluzi Njegovom.

8218. 'Let us flee before Israel' means separation from those governed by the good of truth and guided by the truth of good. This is clear from the meaning of 'fleeing' as separation, dealt with in 4113, 4114, 4120; and from the representation of 'Israel' as those who belong to the spiritual Church, or what amounts to the same thing, those who are governed by the good of truth and guided by the truth of good, dealt with in 7957.

4113. 'By not giving him any indication that he was fleeing' means through the separation. This becomes clear without explanation. The statement that 'Jacob stole the heart of Laban the Aramean by not giving any indication that he was fleeing' is used in the historical sense to mean that Jacob deprived Laban of the hope of gaining possession of everything that was his and drove him into a state of dismay. For Laban believed that because Jacob served him everything belonging to Jacob would become his - not only his own daughters, who were Jacob's wives, and his daughters' sons, but also Jacob's flocks, according to the law known and accepted in those times, which is recorded in Moses,

If you buy a Hebrew slave he shall serve you six years; and in the seventh he shall go out free, for nothing. If his master has given him a wife and she has borne him sons and daughters, the wife and her children shall belong to her master, and he shall go out by himself. 1 Exodus 21:2, 4.

The fact that Laban had this law in mind is evident from Jacob's words later on in this chapter,

Unless the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Dread of Isaac, had been with me, you would now have sent me away empty-handed. Genesis 31:42.

And from Laban's words,

Laban answered and said to Jacob, The daughters are my daughters, and the sons are my sons, and the flock is my flock, and all that you see is mine. Genesis 31:43.

Laban was not taking into consideration the fact that Jacob had not been bought as a slave, nor indeed was a slave, or that he belonged to a more illustrious family than he himself did, or also that Jacob had received his wives as well as the flock as wages. All this being so, that law did not apply to Jacob. Because by his fleeing Jacob now deprived Laban of that hope and as a consequence drove him into a state of dismay it is said that 'he stole the heart of Laban the Aramean by not giving any indication that he was fleeing'. In the internal sense however these words mean a change as regards good of the state meant by 'Laban' through separation. Concerning a change of state effected through separation, see what has been stated just above in 4111.
