Izlazak 16

Studie

   

1 Od Elima se podigoše, i sav zbor sinova Izrailjevih dođe u pustinju Sin, koja je između Elima i Sinaja, petnaestog dana drugog meseca pošto iziđoše iz zemlje misirske.

2 I stade vikati sav zbor sinova Izrailjevih na Mojsija i na Arona u pustinji,

3 I rekoše im sinovi Izrailjevi: Kamo da smo pomrli od ruke Gospodnje u zemlji misirskoj, kad sedasmo kod lonaca s mesom i jeđasmo hleba izobila! Jer nas izvedoste u ovu pustinju da pomorite sav ovaj zbor glađu.

4 A Gospod reče Mojsiju: Evo učiniću da vam daždi iz neba hleb, a narod neka izlazi i kupi svaki dan koliko treba na dan, da ga okušam hoće li hoditi po mom zakonu ili neće.

5 A šestog dana neka zgotove šta donesu, a neka bude dvojinom onoliko koliko nakupe svaki dan.

6 I reče Mojsije i Aron svim sinovima Izrailjevim: Doveče ćete poznati da vas je Gospod izveo iz zemlje misirske;

7 A sutra ćete videti slavu Gospodnju; jer je čuo viku vašu na Gospoda. Jer šta smo mi da vičete na nas?

8 I reče Mojsije: Doveče će vam dati Gospod mesa da jedete a ujutru hleba da se nasitite; jer je čuo Gospod viku vašu, kojom vičete na Nj. Jer šta smo mi? Nije na nas vaša vika nego na Gospoda.

9 I reče Mojsije Aronu: Kaži svemu zboru sinova Izrailjevih: Pristupite pred Gospoda, jer je čuo viku vašu.

10 I kad reče Aron svemu zboru sinova Izrailjevih, pogledaše u pustinju, i gle, slava Gospodnja pokaza se u oblaku.

11 I Gospod reče Mojsiju govoreći:

12 Čuo sam viku sinova Izrailjevih. Kaži im i reci: Doveče ćete jesti mesa, a sutra ćete se nasititi hleba, i poznaćete da sam ja Gospod Bog vaš.

13 I uveče doleteše prepelice i prekriliše logor, a ujutru pade rosa oko logora;

14 A kad se diže rosa, a to po pustinji nešto sitno okruglo, sitno kao slana po zemlji.

15 I kad vide sinovi Izrailjevi, govorahu jedan drugom: Šta je ovo? Jer ne znahu šta beše. A Mojsije im reče: To je hleb što vam dade Gospod da jedete.

16 To je za šta zapovedi Gospod: kupite ga svaki dan koliko kome treba za jelo, po gomor na glavu, po broju duša vaših, svaki neka uzme za one koji su mu u šatoru.

17 I učiniše tako sinovi Izrailjevi; i nakupiše koji više koji manje.

18 Pa meriše na gomor, i ne dođe više onom koji nakupi mnogo, niti manje onom koji nakupi malo, nego svaki nakupi koliko mu je trebalo da jede.

19 I reče im Mojsije: Niko da ne ostavlja od toga za sutra.

20 Ali ne poslušaše Mojsija, nego neki ostaviše od toga za sutra, te se ucrva i usmrde. I rasrdi se Mojsije na njih.

21 Tako ga kupljahu svako jutro, svaki koliko mu trebaše za jelo; a kad sunce ogrevaše, tada se rastapaše.

22 A u šesti dan nakupiše hleba dvojinom, po dva gomora na svakog; i dođoše sve starešine od zbora, i javiše Mojsiju.

23 A on im reče: Ovo kaza Gospod: Sutra je subota, odmor svet Gospodu; šta ćete peći, pecite, i šta ćete kuvati, kuvajte danas; a šta preteče, ostavite i čuvajte za sutra.

24 I ostaviše za sutra, kao što zapovedi Mojsije, i ne usmrde se niti beše crva u njemu.

25 I reče Mojsije: Jedite to danas, jer je danas subota Gospodnja, danas nećete naći u polju.

26 Šest ćete dana kupiti, a sedmi je dan subota, tada ga neće biti.

27 I u sedmi dan iziđoše neki od naroda da kupe, ali ne nađoše.

28 A Gospod reče Mojsiju: Dokle ćete se protiviti zapovestima mojim i zakonima mojim?

29 Vidite, Gospod vam je dao subotu, zato vam daje šestog dana hleba na dva dana. Stojte svaki na svom mestu, i neka ne odlazi niko sa svog mesta u sedmi dan.

30 I počinu narod u sedmi dan.

31 I dom Izrailjev prozva taj hleb mana; a beše kao seme korijandrovo, beo, i na jeziku kao medeni kolači.

32 I reče Mojsije: Ovo je zapovedio Gospod: napuni gomor toga, neka se čuva od kolena do kolena vašeg, da vide hleb, kojim sam vas hranio u pustinji kad vas izvedoh iz zemlje misirske.

33 I reče Mojsije Aronu: Uzmi krčag i naspi pun gomor mane, i metni pred Gospoda da se čuva od kolena do kolena vašeg.

34 I ostavi ga Aron pred svedočanstvom da se čuva, kao što zapovedi Gospod Mojsiju.

35 A sinovi Izrailjevi jedoše manu četrdeset godina dok ne dođoše u zemlju u kojoj će živeti; jedoše manu dok ne dođoše na među zemlje hananske.

36 A gomor je desetina efe.

Exploring the Meaning of Exodus 16

Napsal(a) New Christian Bible Study Staff

Arcana Coelestia 8395. The preceding chapter treated of the second temptation of those who were of the spiritual church, which was from truth being perceived as undelightful. In this chapter in the internal sense a third temptation is treated of, which is from the lack of good. By the lack of bread and of flesh, at which the sons of Israel murmured, is signified a lack of good. Consolation after temptation is signified and described by the manna which they received, and by the quail. Manna denotes spiritual good. That this was given to them by the Lord continually, and without any care and aid of theirs, is signified by their receiving the manna daily, and by the worm breeding in it if they gathered more.

8395. Exodus 16

1. And they travelled on from Elim, and all the assembly of the children of Israel came to the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their coming out 1 of the land of Egypt.

2. And all the assembly of the children of Israel grumbled against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness.

3. And the children of Israel said to them, Would that we had died 2 by the hand of Jehovah in the land of Egypt, when we sat by a pot of flesh, eating bread to the full! For you have brought us out to this wilderness, to kill all this congregation with hunger.

4. And Jehovah said to Moses, behold, I am causing it to rain bread from heaven for you; and the people will go out and gather the thing of a day in its day, 3 in order that I may test them [to see] whether they walk in My law or not.

5. And it shall be on the sixth day, that they are to prepare what they have brought in; and it shall be double to what they shall gather day by day.

6. And Moses and Aaron said to all the children of Israel, At evening you will know that Jehovah has brought you out of the land of Egypt.

7. And in the morning you will see the glory of Jehovah; He hears your grumblings against Jehovah, and what are we, that you grumble against us?

8. And Moses said, Jehovah is giving you flesh to eat in the evening, and in the morning bread to the full; Jehovah hears your grumblings which you make against Him. What are we? Your grumblings are not against us, but against Jehovah.

9. And Moses said to Aaron, Say to all the assembly of the children of Israel, Come near before Jehovah, for He has heard your grumblings.

10. And so it was, as Aaron was speaking to all the assembly of the children of Israel, that they looked back towards the wilderness, and behold, the glory of Jehovah was seen in the cloud.

11. And Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying,

12. I have heard the grumblings of the children of Israel. Speak to them, saying, At evening 4 you will eat flesh, and in the morning you will be filled with bread; and you will know that I am Jehovah your God.

13. And it happened in the evening, that the selav 5 came up and covered the camp; and in the morning there was a deposit of dew around the camp.

14. And the deposit of dew went up, and behold, on the face of the wilderness a tiny round thing, tiny like hoar frost on the earth.

15. And the children of Israel saw it and said, a man to his brother, Man 6 is it? because they did not know what it was. And Moses said to them, It is the bread which Jehovah has given you to eat.

16. This is the thing 7 which Jehovah has commanded: Gather from it, each according to the mouth of his eating, an omer a head, [according to] the number of your souls; take it, each for whoever is in his tent.

17. And the children of Israel did so, and gathered it, [each] collecting it for a large number or for a few.

18. And they measured it with an omer, and no large number had more than enough and no few had less; they gathered, each according to the mouth of his eating.

19. And Moses said to them, Let no one leave any of it 8 until the morning

20. And they did not hear 9 Moses, and some did leave part of it 10 until the morning; and it bred worms and became putrid. And Moses was incensed with them.

21. And they gathered it morning by morning, each according to the mouth of his eating; and the sun grew hot, and it melted.

22. And so it was, that on the sixth day they gathered twice as much bread, two omers for each one; and all the princes of the assembly came and told Moses.

23. And he said to them, This is what Jehovah has spoken: [A day of] rest, a holy sabbath to Jehovah shall tomorrow be. Bake what you will bake, and boil what you will boil; and all that is left over put aside for yourselves to keep until the morning.

24. And they put it aside till the morning, as Moses commanded; and it did not become putrid, and there was no worm in it.

25. And Moses said, Eat it today, because today is a sabbath to Jehovah, today you will not find it in the field.

26. Six days you shall gather it; and on the seventh day, the sabbath, there will be none in it.

27. And so it was on the seventh day, that some of the people went out to gather, and did not find.

28. And Jehovah said to Moses, How long do you refuse to keep My commandments and My laws?

29. See! Because Jehovah has given you the sabbath, therefore on the sixth day He gives you the bread of two days; rest, each of you in his place, 11 let no one go out of his place on the seventh day.

30. And the people rested on the seventh day.

31. And the house of Israel called its name Man; 12 and it was like coriander seed, white, and the taste of it was like that of a cake with honey.

32. And Moses said, This is the thing 13 which Jehovah has commanded: Fill an omer with it to be kept for your generations, in order that they may see the bread with which I fed you in the wilderness, when I brought you out of the land of Egypt.

33. And Moses said to Aaron, Take a jar, and put an omerful of man[na] in it, and lay it up before Jehovah, to be kept for your generations.

34. As Jehovah commanded Moses, so Aaron laid it up before the Testimony, to be kept.

35. And the children of Israel ate the man[na] forty years, until they came to an inhabited land; they ate the man[na] until they came to the border of the land of Canaan.

36. And an omer is the tenth part of an ephah.

CONTENTS

The previous chapter dealt with the second temptation of those belonging to the spiritual Church, which arose because truth was perceived to be unpleasant. The present chapter deals in the internal sense with the third temptation, which arises because good is lacking. The lack of bread and flesh, which the children of Israel grumbled about, means a lack of good. Comfort after temptation is meant and described by the manna they received, and by the selav, the manna being spiritual good. The Lord constantly conferred this good on them, and without any care and aid on their part, which is meant by their receiving the manna every day and by the breeding of worms in it if they gathered too much.
