Izlazak 17

Studie

   

1 I podiže se iz pustinje Sina sav zbor sinova Izrailjevih putem svojim po zapovesti Gospodnjoj, i stadoše u logor u Rafidinu; a onde ne beše vode da narod pije.

2 I narod se svađaše s Mojsijem govoreći: Daj nam vode da pijemo. A on im reče: Što se svađate sa mnom? Što kušate Gospoda?

3 Ali narod beše onde žedan vode, te vikaše narod na Mojsija, i govoraše: Zašto si nas izveo iz Misira da nas i sinove naše i stoku našu pomoriš žeđu?

4 A Mojsije zavapi ka Gospodu govoreći: Šta ću činiti s ovim narodom? Još malo pa će me zasuti kamenjem.

5 A Gospod reče Mojsiju: Prođi pred narod, i uzmi sa sobom starešine izrailjske, i štap svoj kojim si udario vodu uzmi u ruku svoju, i idi.

6 A ja ću stajati pred tobom onde na steni na Horivu; a ti udari u stenu, i poteći će iz nje voda da pije narod. I učini Mojsije tako pred starešinama izrailjskim.

7 A mesto ono prozva Masa i Meriva zato što se svađaše sinovi Izrailjevi i što kušaše Gospoda govoreći: Je li Gospod među nama ili nije?

8 Ali dođe Amalik da se bije s Izrailjem u Rafidinu.

9 A Mojsije reče Isusu: Izberi nam ljude, te izađi i bij se s Amalikom; a ja ću sutra stati na vrh brda sa štapom Božjim u ruci.

10 I učini Isus kako mu reče Mojsije, i pobi se s Amalikom; a Mojsije i Aron i Or izađoše na vrh brda.

11 I dokle Mojsije držaše u vis ruke svoje, pobeđivahu Izrailjci, a kako bi spustio ruke, odmah nadvlađivahu Amaličani.

12 Ali ruke Mojsiju otežaše, zato uzeše kamen i podmetnuše poda nj, te sede; a Aron i Or držahu mu ruke jedan s jedne strane a drugi s druge, i ne klonuše mu ruke do zahoda sunčanog.

13 I razbi Isus Amalika i narod njegov oštrim mačem.

14 Potom reče Gospod Mojsiju: Zapiši to za spomen u knjigu, i kaži Isusu neka pamti da ću sasvim istrebiti spomen Amalikov ispod neba.

15 Tada načini Mojsije oltar, i nazva ga: Gospod, zastava moja.

16 I reče: Što se ruka beše podigla na presto Gospodnji, Gospod će ratovati na Amalika od kolena do kolena.

8572. Verses 4-6 And Moses cried out to Jehovah, saying, What shall I do for this people? Yet a little and they stone me. 1 And Jehovah said to Moses, Pass on before the people, and take with you some of the elders of Israel; and your rod with which you struck the river, take in your hand, and go. Behold, I [will be] standing before you there on the rock in Horeb, and you are to strike the rock, and water will come out of it; and let the people drink. And Moses did so before the eyes of the elders of Israel.

'And Moses cried out to Jehovah, saying' means deep grief, and intercession 'What shall I do for this people?' means what should be done for those who make such bitter complaint because they are not in receipt of truth? 'Yet a little and they stone me' means that they are not far from doing violence to the truth from God. 'And Jehovah said to Moses' means aid. 'Pass on before the people' means that he is to lead and teach them. 'And take with you some of the elders of Israel' means with the help of leading truths. 'And your rod with which you struck the river' means the Divine power by means of which falsities were dispelled. 'Take in your hand, and go' means that furnished with that power, he is to carry out what has been commanded. 'Behold, I [will be] standing before you there on the rock in Horeb' means the Lord in respect of the truths of faith. 'And you are to strike the rock' means that they are to ask Him insistently. 'And water will come out of it' means that truths of faith will flow from Him. 'And let the people drink' means that those truths will refresh them and impart spiritual life. 'And Moses did so before the eyes of the elders of Israel' means the accomplishment by means of leading truths
