Postanak 16

Studie

   

1 Ali Sara žena Avramova ne rađaše mu dece. A imaše robinju Misirku, po imenu Agara.

2 Pa reče Sara Avramu: Gospod me je zatvorio da ne rodim; nego idi k robinji mojoj, ne bih li dobila dece od nje. I Avram prista na reč Sarinu.

3 I Sara žena Avramova uze Agaru Misirku robinju svoju, i dade je za ženu Avramu mužu svom posle deset godina otkako se nastani Avram u zemlji hananskoj.

4 I on otide k Agari, i ona zatrudne; a kad vide da je trudna, ponese se od gospođe svoje.

5 A Sara reče Avramu: Uvreda moja pade na tebe; ja ti metnuh na krilo robinju svoju, a ona videvši da je trudna ponese se od mene. Gospod će suditi meni i tebi.

6 A Avram reče Sari: Eto, robinja je tvoja u tvojim rukama, učini s njom šta ti je volja. I Sara je stade zlostavljati, te ona pobeže od nje.

7 Ali anđeo Gospodnji nađe je kod studenca u pustinji, kod studenca na putu u Sur.

8 I reče joj: Agaro, robinjo Sarina, otkud ideš, kuda li ideš? A ona reče: Bežim od Sare gospođe svoje.

9 A anđeo joj Gospodnji reče: Vrati se gospođi svojoj, i pokori joj se.

10 Opet joj reče anđeo Gospodnji: Umnožiću veoma seme tvoje, da se neće moći prebrojati od množine.

11 Još joj reče anđeo Gospodnji: Eto si trudna, i rodićeš sina, i nadeni mu ime Ismailo; jer je Gospod video muku tvoju.

12 A biće čovek ubica; ruka će se njegova dizati na svakog a svačija na njega, i nastavaće na pogledu svoj braći svojoj.

13 Tada Agara prizva ime Gospoda koji govori s njom: Ti si Bog, koji vidi. Jer govoraše: Zar još gledam iza Onog koji me vide?

14 Toga radi zove se studenac onaj studenac Živoga koji me vidi; a on je između Kadisa i Varada.

15 I rodi Agara Avramu sina; i nadede Avram sinu svom, kog mu rodi Agara, ime Ismailo.

16 A beše Avramu osamdeset i šest godina kad mu Agara rodi Ismaila.

340. That 'she said, I have gained a man, Jehovah' means that with those called Cain faith was known and acknowledged as something existing by itself is clear from what has been stated in the preliminary sections of this chapter. 1 Previously they had not so to speak known what faith was, for what they possessed was a perception of everything that constituted faith. But once they started to make distinct and separate doctrine out of faith they drew on things which had been with them matters of perception and reduced them to doctrine. This doctrine they called 'I have gained a man, Jehovah', as though they had come upon something new. So that which had previously been written on the heart was now made into factual knowledge. In early times people used to find a name for anything that was new, and used to attach explanations as to what such names embodied. For example, to indicate what Ishmael meant, the explanation was added, Jehovah hearkened to her affliction', Genesis 16:11; what Reuben meant, 'Jehovah has seen my affliction', Genesis 29:32; what Simeon meant, 'Jehovah heard that she was less loved', ibid. Verse 33; and what Judah meant, 'This time I will confess Jehovah', ibid. Verse 35. The altar built by Moses was called 'Jehovah is my banner', Exodus 17:15. And here likewise doctrine concerning faith is called 'I have gained a man, Jehovah', which is what Cain meant.
