Jezekilj 22

Studie

   

1 Opet mi dođe reč Gospodnja govoreći:

2 A ti, sine čovečji, hoćeš li suditi, hoćeš li suditi gradu krvničkom? I hoćeš li mu pokazati sve gadove njegove?

3 Reci: Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: ide vreme gradu koji proliva krv u sebi i gradi gadne bogove sebi da se skvrni.

4 Skrivio si krvlju koju si prolio, i oskvrnio si se o gadne bogove svoje koje si načinio; i učinio si te se približiše dani tvoji, i došao si do godina svojih; zato ću učiniti od tebe rug među narodima i podsmeh po svim zemljama;

5 Koje su blizu tebe i koje su daleko podsmevaće ti se, gadni imenom, veliki smetnjom!

6 Gle, knezovi Izrailjevi u tebi dadoše se da prolivaju krv svaki svom silom svojom.

7 Oca i mater preziru u tebi, čine krivo inostrancu usred tebe, siroti i udovici čine nasilje u tebi;

8 Svete stvari moje prezireš, i subote moje skvrniš.

9 U tebi su opadači da prolivaju krv, i na gorama jedu u tebi, grdila čine usred tebe.

10 Golotinju očevu otkrivaju u tebi, ležu u tebi sa ženom za nečistote njene.

11 I jedan čini gad sa ženom bližnjeg svog; a drugi skvrni snahu svoju grdilom; a drugi siluje sestru svoju, kćer oca svog, u tebi.

12 Mito primaju u tebi da prolivaju krv; ujam i pridavak uzimaš, i tražiš dobitak od bližnjih svojih prevarom, a mene si zaboravio, govori Gospod Gospod.

13 Zato, evo, pljeskam rukama svojim radi tvog nepravednog dobitka, koji dobijaš, i radi krvi što je u tebi.

14 Hoće li se održati srce tvoje, ili ruke tvoje hoće li biti jake u one dane kad stanem raditi s tobom? Ja Gospod rekoh, i učiniću.

15 Jer ću te rasejati po narodima i razasuti po zemljama, i istrebiću nečistotu tvoju iz tebe.

16 I bićeš skvrnavan sobom pred narodima, i poznaćeš da sam ja Gospod.

17 Potom dođe mi reč Gospodnja govoreći:

18 Sine čovečji, dom Izrailjev posta mi droždina; svi su bronza i kositer i gvožđe i olovo u peći; droždina od srebra postaše.

19 Zato ovako veli Gospod Gospod: Što svi vi postaste droždina, zato, evo, ja ću vas skupiti u Jerusalim.

20 Kako se skuplja srebro i bronza i gvožđe i olovo i kositer usred peći, te se raspali oganj oko njega da se istopi, tako ću vas skupiti gnevom svojim i jarošću, i složivši rastopiću vas.

21 Da, skupiću vas, i raspaliću oko vas oganj gneva svog, i istopićete se usred njega.

22 Kako se topi srebro u peći, tako ćete se vi istopiti u njemu, i poznaćete da sam ja Gospod izlio gnev svoj na vas.

23 Opet mi dođe reč Gospodnja govoreći:

24 Sine čovečji, kaži joj: Ti si zemlja koja se nisi očistila; neće pasti na te dažd u dan gneva.

25 Proroci njeni složiše se u njoj, kao lav su, koji riče i grabi plen, žderu duše, otimaju blago i dragocene stvari, umnožavaju udovice usred nje.

26 Sveštenici njeni prestupaju zakon moj i skvrne moje svete stvari, ne razlikuju sveto od oskvrnjenog, i nečisto od čistog ne raspoznaju, kriju oči svoje od subota mojih, i bivam oskvrnjen među njima.

27 Knezovi su njeni usred nje kao vuci, koji grabe plen, prolivajući krv, gubeći duše sramotnog dobitka radi.

28 I proroci njeni mažu je nevaljalim krečem, viđaju taštinu i gataju im laž govoreći: Tako reče Gospod Gospod; a Gospod ne reče.

29 Narod zemaljski vara i otima, i siromahu i ubogome čini nasilje, i došljaku čini krivo.

30 I tražih među njima koji bi opravio ogradu i stao na prolomu preda me za tu zemlju, da je ne zatrem; ali ne nađoh nikoga.

31 Zato ću izliti na njih gnev svoj, ognjem jarosti svoje istrebiću ih, put njihov obratiću im na glavu, govori Gospod Gospod.

8899. 'Which Jehovah your God gives you' means where the Divine is, and influx from Him. This is clear from the consideration that these words are spoken in regard to heaven, meant here by 'the land', 8898, so that 'Jehovah God' is the Divine there, and 'giving' is influx; for heaven with all people in general and with each person in particular consists in the reception of influx from the Divine. It may seem strange that such things are meant by the commandment about honouring parents, for they are remote from the literal meaning. But it should be recognized that the Ten Commandments are rules both for those in the world and for those in heaven. The literal or external sense is for those in the world, the spiritual or internal sense for those in heaven; and this being so, both senses - the external and the internal - are for those who while in the world are also in heaven, that is, those leading a good life in conformity with the truths of religious teachings. The fact that the Ten Commandments are also for those in heaven is evident from the internal sense of all that is in the Word, and especially from the consideration that things spoken by Jehovah God, that is, the Lord Himself, are not only for men or the world but also for angels, indeed for the whole of heaven. For Divine Truth which goes forth from the Lord flows through heaven; it passes right through to man. This is so with these Ten Commandments which the Lord Himself spoke from Mount Sinai.

[2] Since these commandments were declared not only for those in the world but also for those in heaven they could not be understood in the same way in both places. That was so with this commandment that they should honour father and mother, in order that their days might be prolonged on the land that Jehovah God would give them. For in heaven parents and children do not come together as on earth; therefore the Lord is in place of 'father' there, and His kingdom in place of 'mother'. Nor can it be said of those in heaven that their days would be prolonged, since they live there forever. Neither can 'land' there be taken to mean the land of Canaan, as it is in this commandment, but the heavenly Canaan instead which is heaven. Since 'father and mother' means the Lord and His kingdom this commandment is fourth in order, surpassing in holiness those that come after it. The commandment regarding the worship of Jehovah, that is, the Lord, is the first and second, because it is the holiest. After it comes the commandment regarding the sabbath, because in the highest sense the union within the Lord of the Divine Itself and the Divine Human is meant by it. Then follows the commandment about honouring parents, because love of the Lord is meant by it, and consequently the love of goodness and truth that come from the Lord. Since these things are meant by this commandment, treating parents with contempt is listed among the crimes meant by 'shedding blood', Ezekiel 22:6-7; and disobedient and stubborn sons were to be stoned, Deuteronomy 21:18-21.
