Izlazak 4

Studie

   

1 A Mojsije odgovori i reče: Ali neće mi verovati ni poslušati glas moj; jer će reći: Nije ti se Gospod javio.

2 A Gospod mu reče: Šta ti je to u ruci? A on odgovori: Štap.

3 A Bog mu reče: Baci ga na zemlju. I baci ga na zemlju, a on posta zmija. I Mojsije pobeže od nje.

4 A Gospod reče Mojsiju: Pruži ruku svoju, pa je uhvati za rep. I pruži ruku svoju, i uhvati je, i opet posta štap u ruci njegovoj.

5 To učini, reče Gospod, da veruju da ti se javio Gospod Bog otaca njihovih, Bog Avramov, Bog Isakov i Bog Jakovljev.

6 I opet mu reče Gospod: Turi sada ruku svoju u nedra svoja. I on turi ruku svoju u nedra svoja; a kad je izvadi iz nedara, a to ruka mu gubava, bela kao sneg.

7 A Bog mu reče: Turi opet ruku svoju u nedra svoja. I opet turi ruku svoju u nedra svoja; a kad je izvadi iz nedara, a to opet postala kao i ostalo telo njegovo.

8 Tako, reče Bog, ako ti ne uzveruju i ne poslušaju glas tvoj za prvi znak, poslušaće za drugi znak.

9 Ako li ne uzveruju ni za ta dva znaka i ne poslušaju glas tvoj, a ti zahvati vode iz reke, i prolij na zemlju, i pretvoriće se voda koju zahvatiš iz reke, i provrći će se u krv na zemlji.

10 A Mojsije reče Gospodu: Molim Ti se, Gospode, nisam rečit čovek, niti sam pre bio niti sam otkako si progovorio sa slugom svojim, nego sam sporih usta i sporog jezika.

11 A Gospod mu reče: Ko je dao usta čoveku? Ili ko može stvoriti nemog ili gluvog ili okatog ili slepog? Zar ne ja, Gospod?

12 Idi dakle, ja ću biti s ustima tvojim, i učiću te šta ćeš govoriti.

13 A Mojsije reče: Molim Te, Gospode, pošlji onog koga treba da pošalješ.

14 I razgnevi se Gospod na Mojsija, i reče mu: Nije li ti brat Aron Levit? Znam da je on rečit; i evo on će te sresti, i kad te vidi obradovaće se u srcu svom.

15 Njemu ćeš kazati i metnućeš ove reči u usta njegova, i ja ću biti s tvojim ustima i s njegovim ustima, i učiću vas šta ćete činiti.

16 I on će mesto tebe govoriti narodu, i on će biti tebi mesto usta, a ti ćeš biti njemu mesto Boga.

17 A taj štap uzmi u ruku svoju, njim ćeš činiti čudesa.

18 I otide Mojsije, i vrati se k Jotoru tastu svom, i reče mu: Pusti me da idem, da se vratim k braći svojoj u Misiru, da vidim jesu li još u životu. I reče Jotor Mojsiju: Idi s mirom.

19 I reče Gospod Mojsiju u zemlji madijanskoj: Idi, vrati se u Misir, jer su pomrli svi koji su tražili dušu tvoju.

20 I uze Mojsije ženu svoju i sinove svoje, i posadi ih na magarca, i pođe natrag u zemlju misirsku. I uze Mojsije štap Božji u ruku svoju.

21 I reče Gospod Mojsiju: Kad otideš i vratiš se u Misir, gledaj da učiniš pred Faraonom sva čudesa koja ti metnuh u ruku: a ja ću učiniti da mu otvrdne srce i ne pusti narod.

22 A ti ćeš reći Faraonu: Ovako kaže Gospod: Izrailj je sin moj, prvenac moj.

23 I kazah ti: Pusti sina mog da mi posluži. A ti ga ne hte pustiti; evo ja ću ubiti sina tvog, prvenca tvog.

24 I kad beše na putu u gostionici, dođe k njemu Gospod i htede da ga ubije.

25 A Sefora uze oštar nož, i obreza sina svog, i okrajak baci k nogama njegovim govoreći: Ti si mi krvav zaručnik.

26 Tada ga ostavi Gospod; a ona radi obrezanja reče: Krvav zaručnik.

27 A Gospod reče Aronu: Iziđi u pustinju na susret Mojsiju. I otide i srete ga na gori Božijoj, i poljubi ga.

28 I Mojsije kaza Aronu sve reči Gospodnje, za koje ga posla, i sve znake koje mu zapovedi.

29 I otidoše Mojsije i Aron, i skupiše sve starešine sinova Izrailjevih.

30 I Aron kaza sve reči, koje beše rekao Gospod Mojsiju, a Mojsije učini znake pred narodom.

31 I narod verova; i razumeše da je Gospod pohodio sinove Izrailjeve i video nevolju njihovu; i savivši se pokloniše se.

6945. 'For they will say, Jehovah has not appeared to you' means the Divine within the Lord's Human. This is clear from the meaning of saying' as perception, dealt with often, in this instance the perception of those who belong to the spiritual Church; and from the meaning of 'Jehovah has appeared' as the appearance of the Lord's Divine within His Human. The fact that this kind of appearance is meant by a visual appearance is self-evident; and the fact that 'Jehovah' is the Lord in respect of the Divine itself and in respect of the Divine Human is dealt with in 1736, 2004, 2005, 2018, 2025, 2156, 2329, 2921, 3023, 3035, 5041, 5663, 6281, 6303, 6905. That 'Jehovah has appeared' means the appearance of the Lord's Divine within His Human is also evident from the consideration that His Divine cannot appear to anyone, not even to an angel, except through the Divine Human; nor can the Divine Human except through Divine Truth which goes forth from Him. The subject here in the internal sense is the deliverance of those who belonged to the spiritual Church. Their deliverance was effected by means of the Lord's Coming into the world, see 2661, 2716, 3969, 6854, 6914; and these specifically were saved by means of the Lord's Divine Human, 2716, 2833, 2834.

[2] The implications of this - that those who belong to that Church will not be in possession of faith and so will be unreceptive of what the law from God, represented by 'Moses', says, that is, what the Word says, unless they see signs are as follows: Because they belong to the spiritual Church they do not have a perception of truth from good as people who are celestial do. Instead they acknowledge as the truth all the religious teaching of their Church which they have substantiated for themselves, which means that compared with those who are celestial they dwell in obscurity, 1718, 2831, 2849, 2935, 2937, 3833, 6427, 6500, 6865. This is also made perfectly clear by the fact that they do not at all comprehend how the Lord's Human is able to be Divine, or that God's love within the Human makes it so. For they fix their thought on what is human as they know of it in people generally and do not diverge from this when they think of the Lord; so their minds are in a tangle. The same thing is again made clear by the fact that they also fail to comprehend how a person can be living after death and in that life can have the senses, such as sight, hearing, touch, and smell, or can exist there in a human form. The idea that a person is like this when he lays aside his body along with its senses and members appears to them to be very far from the truth. Thus they are enmeshed in impressions received by the senses and in factual knowledge and illusions that are products of those impressions. If they did not believe therefore that the body is to be rejoined to the soul they would have no belief in any resurrection at all.

[3] From all this one may recognize quite clearly how much obscurity they dwell in regarding the things of heaven. It explains why they cannot have any faith implanted in them at all unless the Lord withholds them from falsities by great force. And since such a force did not exist before the Lord's Coming, only after His Coming when He had made the Human within Himself Divine, they could not be rescued from the lower earth where they were being molested by falsities and be raised to heaven until after the Lord's resurrection, 6914. This then is the reason why it is said that they will not believe and so will be unreceptive of what the law of God, that is, what God's truth, says unless they see proof that it is the truth, which is to say, unless they see signs, described in what follows immediately below.
