Postanak 12

Studie

   

1 I reče Gospod Avramu: Idi iz zemlje svoje i od roda svog i iz doma oca svog u zemlju koju ću ti ja pokazati.

2 I učiniću od tebe velik narod, i blagosloviću te, i ime tvoje proslaviću, i ti ćeš biti blagoslov.

3 Blagosloviću one koji tebe uzblagosiljaju, i prokleću one koji tebe usproklinju; i u tebi će biti blagoslovena sva plemena na zemlji.

4 Tada pođe Avram, kao što mu kaza Gospod, i s njim pođe Lot. A beše Avramu sedamdeset i pet godina kad pođe iz Harana.

5 I uze Avram Saru ženu svoju i Lota sina brata svog sa svim blagom koje behu stekli i s dušama koje behu dobili u Haranu; i pođoše u zemlju hanansku, i dođoše u nju.

6 I pođe Avram tu zemlju do mesta Sihema i do ravnice moreške; a behu tada Hananeji u toj zemlji.

7 I javi se Gospod Avramu i reče: Tvom semenu daću zemlju ovu. I Avram načini onde žrtvenik Gospodu, koji mu se javio.

8 Posle otide odande na brdo, koje je prema istoku od Vetilja, i onde razape šator svoj, te mu Vetilj beše sa zapada a Gaj s istoka; i onde načini Gospodu žrtvenik, i prizva ime Gospodnje.

9 Odande otide Avram dalje idući na jug.

10 Ali nasta glad u onoj zemlji, te Avram siđe u Misir da se onde skloni; jer glad beše velika u onoj zemlji.

11 A kad se približi da većuđe u Misir, reče Sari ženi svojoj: Gle, znam da si žena lepa u licu.

12 Zato kad te vide Misirci reći će: Ovo mu je žena. Pa će me ubiti, a tebe će ostaviti u životu.

13 Nego hajde kaži da si mi sestra, te će meni biti dobro tebe radi i ostaću u životu uz tebe.

14 I kad dođe Avram u Misir, videše Misirci ženu da je vrlo lepa.

15 I videše je knezovi Faraonovi, i hvališe je pred Faraonom. I uzeše je u dvor Faraonov.

16 I on činjaše dobro Avramu nje radi, te imaše ovaca i goveda i magaraca i sluga i sluškinja i magarica i kamila.

17 Ali Gospod pusti velika zla na Faraona i na dom njegov radi Sare žene Avramove.

18 Tada dozva Faraon Avrama i reče mu: Šta mi to učini? Zašto mi nisi kazao da ti je žena?

19 Zašto si kazao: Sestra mi je? Te je uzeh za ženu. Sad eto ti žene, uzmi je, pa idi.

20 I Faraon zapovedi ljudima za nj, te ga ispratiše i ženu njegovu i šta god imaše.

1457. That 'Abram travelled, going on and travelling' means further advance becomes clear from the meaning of 'going on and travelling'. Among the ancients, journeys, travels, and sojournings had no other meaning, and therefore in the internal sense have no other meaning in the Word. The Lord's advances forward into cognitions begin here. That the Lord also was taught like any other child is made clear in Luke,

The young child 1 grew and became strong in spirit; he was in desert places till the day of His manifestation to Israel. Luke 1:80.

In the same gospel,

The child grew and became strong in spirit, and was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon Him. Luke 2:40.

In the same gospel,

Joseph and Jesus' mother after three days found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them and asking them questions; and all who heard Him were amazed at His understanding and answers. When they saw Him they were astonished, but He said to them, How is it that you sought Me? Did you not know that I must be in those things that are My Father's? 2 Luke 2:46, 49.

He was at that time twelve years old, Luke 2:42. In the same gospel, Jesus advanced in wisdom and in years, 3 and in grace with God and men. Luke 2:52.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. In the literal sense this verse refers to John the Baptist; but see 1927, 5620.

2. In those things that are My Father's' is a very literal rendering of the Latin, which renders the Greek quite literally.

3. literally, age
