Jezekilj 24

Studie

   

1 Potom godine devete, desetog meseca, desetog dana, dođe mi reč Gospodnja govoreći:

2 Sine čovečji, zapiši ime ovog dana, ovog istog dana; u taj dan dođe car vavilonski na Jerusalim.

3 I kaži priču tom domu odmetničkom, i reci im: Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: pristavi lonac, pristavi, i nalij u nj vode.

4 Složi u nj delove, sve dobre delove, stegno i pleće, i napuni ga najboljih kostiju.

5 Uzmi najbolje iz stada, i naloži kosti ispod njega, i uzvari dobro da se i kosti raskuvaju u njemu.

6 Jer ovako veli Gospod Gospod: Teško gradu krvničkom, loncu, na kome stoji zagorel, s kog neće da siđe zagorel; povadi deo po deo; žreb da se ne baci za nj.

7 Jer je krv njegova usred njega; na go kamen metnu je, ne proli je na zemlju da se pokrije prahom.

8 Raspalivši gnev da učinim osvetu, metnuću krv njegovu na go kamen da se ne pokrije.

9 Zato ovako govori Gospod Gospod: Teško gradu krvničkom! I ja ću naložiti velik oganj.

10 Nanesi drva, i raspali oganj, neka se straši meso, začini korenjem, i kosti neka izgore.

11 Metni ga praznog na živo ugljevlje da se ugreje i izgori bronza njegova i da se stopi u njemu nečistota njegova i da nestane zagoreli njegove.

12 Lažima dosadio mi je; zato neće izaći iz njega mnoga zagorel njegova; u oganj će zagorel njegova.

13 U nečistoti je tvojoj grdilo tvoje; jer sam te čistio, ali se ti ne očisti; nećeš se više čistiti od nečistote svoje, dokle ne namirim gnev svoj nad tobom.

14 Ja Gospod govorih; doći će, i izvršiću; neću odustati niti ću žaliti niti ću se raskajati, po putevima tvojim i po delima tvojim sudiće ti, govori Gospod Gospod.

15 Opet mi dođe reč Gospodnja govoreći:

16 Sine čovečji, evo ja ću ti uzeti želju očiju tvojih zlom, ali ne tuži ni plači, niti suza roni.

17 Nemoj uzdisati, ne žali kako biva za mrtvim, metni kapu na glavu, i obuću svoju obuj na noge, i usta svojih nemoj pokriti i hleba ničijeg ne jedi.

18 I govorih ujutru narodu, a uveče mi umre žena; i sutradan učinih kako mi beše zapoveđeno.

19 I reče mi narod: Hoćeš li nam kazati šta nam je to što radiš?

20 I odgovorih im: Dođe mi reč Gospodnja govoreći:

21 Reci domu Izrailjevom: Ovako veli Gospod Gospod: evo, ja ću oskvrniti svetinju svoju, veličanstvo sile vaše, želju očiju vaših i šta je milo duši vašoj; i sinovi će vaši i kćeri vaše koje ostaviste pasti od mača.

22 I činićete kako ja činim: usta nećete pokriti i hleba ničijeg nećete jesti;

23 I kape će vam biti na glavama i obuća na nogama; nećete tužiti ni plakati, nego ćete sa bezakonja svojih čileti i uzdisaćete jedan s drugim.

24 I Jezekilj će vam biti znak: činićete sve što on čini; kad to dođe, poznaćete da sam ja Gospod Gospod.

25 A ti, sine čovečji, u onaj dan kad im uzmem silu njihovu, radost slave njihove, želju očiju njihovih i za čim teži duša njihova, sinove njihove i kćeri njihove,

26 U taj dan ko pobegne, neće li doći k tebi da ti donese glas?

27 U taj će se dan otvoriti usta tvoja prema onom ko pobegne, i govorićeš i nećeš više biti nem; i bićeš im znak, i oni će poznati da sam ja Gospod.

Sword

  

A 'sword,' as in Ezekiel 21:9-15, signifies a person so desolated that he can see nothing good and true, but only falsities and contradictions. A 'sword,' in the Word, signifies the truth of faith combating and the vastation of truth. In an opposite sense, it signifies falsity combating and the punishment of falsity.

The 'sword,' in Revelation 1:16, represents a dispersion of falsities by the Lord because the sword came out from His mouth, which means it comes from the Word. Because the Word is understood by doctrine taken from it, this is also symbolically meant. It is called a sharp two-edged sword because it pierces the heart and soul.

A 'flaming sword which turned every way,' as in Genesis 3:24, signifies divine truth in extremes, which, like the Word in its literal sense, can be turned.

Revelation 16

Studie

   

1 I heard a loud voice out of the temple, saying to the seven angels, "Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the earth!"

2 The first went, and poured out his bowl into the earth, and it became a harmful and evil sore on the people who had the mark of the beast, and who worshiped his image.

3 The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood as of a dead man. Every living thing in the sea died.

4 The third poured out his bowl into the rivers and springs of water, and they became blood.

5 I heard the angel of the waters saying, "You are righteous, who are and who were, you Holy One, because you have judged these things.

6 For they poured out the blood of the saints and the prophets, and you have given them blood to drink. They deserve this."

7 I heard the altar saying, "Yes, Lord God, the Almighty, true and righteous are your judgments."

8 The fourth poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was given to him to scorch men with fire.

9 People were scorched with great heat, and people blasphemed the name of God who has the power over these plagues. They didn't repent and give him glory.

10 The fifth poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was darkened. They gnawed their tongues because of the pain,

11 and they blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores. They didn't repent of their works.

12 The sixth poured out his bowl on the great river, the Euphrates. Its water was dried up, that the way might be prepared for the kings that come from the sunrise.

13 I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits, something like frogs;

14 for they are spirits of demons, performing signs; which go forth to the kings of the whole inhabited earth, to gather them together for the war of that great day of God, the Almighty.

15 "Behold, I come like a thief. Blessed is he who watches, and keeps his clothes, so that he doesn't walk naked, and they see his shame."

16 He gathered them together into the place which is called in Hebrew, Megiddo.

17 The seventh poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came forth out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, "It is done!"

18 There were lightnings, sounds, and thunders; and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since there were men on the earth, so great an earthquake, so mighty.

19 The great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell. Babylon the great was remembered in the sight of God, to give to her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.

20 Every island fled away, and the mountains were not found.

21 Great hailstones, about the weight of a talent, came down out of the sky on people. People blasphemed God because of the plague of the hail, for this plague is exceedingly severe.
