Izlazak 21

Studie

   

1 A ovo su zakoni koje ćeš im postaviti:

2 Ako kupiš roba Jevrejina, šest godina neka ti služi, a sedme nek otide slobodan bez otkupa.

3 Ako bude došao inokosan, neka i otide inokosan; ako li bude imao ženu, neka ide i žena s njim.

4 Ako ga gospodar njegov oženi, i žena mu rodi sinove ili kćeri, žena s decom svojom neka bude gospodaru njegovom, a on neka otide sam.

5 Ako li rob reče tvrdo: Ljubim gospodara svog, ženu svoju i decu svoju, neću da idem da budem slobodan,

6 Onda neka ga dovede gospodar njegov pred sudije i postavi na vratima ili kod dovratka, i onde neka mu gospodar probuši uho šilom, pa neka mu robuje doveka.

7 Ako ko proda kćer svoju da bude robinja, da ne odlazi kao robovi što odlaze.

8 Ako ne bude po volji gospodaru svom, i on je ne uzme za ženu, neka je pusti na otkupe; ali da nema vlasti prodati je u tuđ narod učinivši joj neveru.

9 Ako li je zaruči sinu svom, da joj učini po pravu koje imaju kćeri.

10 Ako li uzme drugu, da joj ne umali hrane ni odela ni zajednice.

11 Ako joj ovo troje ne učini, onda nek otide bez otkupa.

12 Ko udari čoveka, te umre, da se pogubi.

13 Ako li ne bude hteo, nego mu ga Bog dade u ruke, odrediću ti mesto kuda može pobeći.

14 Ako bi ko namerno ustao na bližnjeg svog da ga ubije iz prevare, odvuci ga i od oltara mog da se pogubi.

15 Ko udari oca svog ili mater svoju, da se pogubi.

16 Ko ukrade čoveka i proda ili se nađe u njegovim rukama, da se pogubi.

17 Ko opsuje oca svog ili mater svoju, da se pogubi.

18 Kad se svade ljudi, pa jedan udari drugog kamenom ili pesnicom, ali onaj ne umre nego padne u postelju,

19 Ako se pridigne i izađe o štapu, da ne bude kriv onaj koji je udario, samo dangubu da mu naknadi i svu vidarinu da plati.

20 Ko udari roba svog ili robinju štapom tako da mu umre pod rukom, da je kriv;

21 Ali ako preživi dan ili dva, da nije kriv, jer je njegov novac.

22 Kad se svade ljudi, pa koji od njih udari trudnu ženu tako da izađe iz nje dete, ali se ne dogodi smrt, da plati globu koliko muž ženin reče, a da plati preko sudija;

23 Ako li se dogodi smrt, tada ćeš uzeti život za život,

24 Oko za Oko, zub za zub, ruku za ruku, nogu za nogu,

25 Užeg za užeg, ranu za ranu, modricu za modricu.

26 Ako ko udari po oku roba svog ili robinju svoju, te mu pokvari oko, da ga otpusti slobodnog za oko njegovo.

27 I ako izbije zub robu svom ili robinji svojoj, da ga pusti slobodnog za zub njegov.

28 Ako vo ubode čoveka ili ženu, te umre, da se vo zaspe kamenjem i da se ne jede meso od njega, a gospodar od vola da nije kriv.

29 Ali ako je vo pre bio bodač i gospodar njegov znao za to pa ga nije čuvao, te ubije čoveka ili ženu, vo da se zaspe kamenjem, i gospodar njegov da se pogubi.

30 Ako mu se odredi da se otkupi, neka da otkup za život svoj, koliko mu se odredi.

31 Ako ubode sina ili kćer, da mu bude po istom zakonu.

32 Ako li roba ubode vo ili robinju, da da gospodaru njihovom trideset sikala srebra i vo da se zaspe kamenjem.

33 Ako ko otkrije jamu ili iskopa jamu a ne pokrije, pa upadne vo ili magarac,

34 Da naknadi gospodar od jame i plati novcem gospodaru njihovom, a što je uginulo da je njegovo.

35 Ako vo jednog ubode vola drugom, te pogine, onda da prodadu vola živog i novce da podele, tako i ubijenog vola da podele.

36 Ako li se znalo da je vo pre bio bodač pa ga nije čuvao gospodar njegov, da da vola za vola, a ubijeni neka bude njemu.

9055. 'Burning for burning' means if anything of love and affection present in the inward part of the will [is injured]. This is clear from the meaning of 'burning' as injuring or wiping out the good of love. The reason for saying 'in the will' is that the good of love belongs to the will, whereas the truth of faith belongs to the understanding, 9050, 9051. And the reason for saying 'the inward part' of the will is that 'wound', dealt with below, means an injuring or the wiping out of an aspect of love present in the outward part of the will. Here, as in the previous paragraphs, injuries done both in the internal man and in the external man are dealt with. For injuring the inner part of the understanding is meant by 'eye' and injuring the outer part by 'tooth', and injuring the power of truth in the internal man is meant by 'hand' and injuring the power in the external man by 'foot', as has been shown; thus injuring the will in the internal man is meant by 'burning' and injuring the will in the external man by 'wound'.

[2] A person has inward and outward parts of his will, just as he has inward and outward parts of his understanding, which are dealt with in 9050, 9051. The inward part of his will resides where the inward part of his understanding resides, and the outward part of his will resides where the outward part of his understanding resides. They must be joined together; for where truth resides, so does good, and where good resides, so does truth. Truth without good is not truth, and good without truth is not good. For good is the essential being (esse) of truth, and truth is the manifestation (existere) of good; and the situation with a person's understanding and his will is the same, in that the understanding is dedicated to receiving truth and the will to receiving good. From this it is evident that when a person is being regenerated the Lord gives him a new understanding through the truths of faith, and a new will through the good of charity, and that both must be present and also joined together if the person is to be regenerate.

[3] The reason why 'burning' means injuring the good of love is that love is meant by 'fire', 934, 2446, 4906, 5071, 5215, 6314, 6832, 6834, 6849, 7324 (end), 7575, 7852; and what injures the good of love is evil desire blazing up from self-love. For this desire is called 'burning', 1297, 5215. Evil desire is also meant by 'branding' in Isaiah,

Instead of fragrance there will be rottenness, and instead of a girdle, a falling apart, and instead of well-set hair, baldness, and instead of a robe, a girding of sackcloth, branding instead of beauty. Isaiah 3:24.

This refers to 'the daughter of Zion', by which the celestial Church, that is, the Church governed by love to the Lord, is meant, 2362, 6729. 'Branding' here is evil desire stemming from self-love.

[4] Anyone who does not know that there is an internal sense in the Word thinks that the proud adornments worn by the daughters of Zion as described in verses 16-24 of that chapter mean such adornments, and that because of such things among the daughters of Zion the Jewish and Israelite people were to be punished and - as said in verses 25, 26 - to fall by the sword. But the reality is altogether different from this. The spiritual and celestial beauties of the Church are what are meant by those adornments. It becomes clear to anyone who reads the Word that 'the daughter of Zion' is not used in the Word to mean the daughter of Zion, provided that he turns to and considers those places in the Prophets where Zion and the daughter of Zion are mentioned. From these he will see that the daughter of Zion is the Church.
