Postanak 22

Studie

   

1 Posle toga htede Bog okušati Avrama, pa mu reče: Avrame! A on odgovori: Evo me.

2 I reče mu Bog: Uzmi sada sina svog, jedinca svog milog, Isaka, pa idi u zemlju Moriju, i spali ga na žrtvu tamo na brdu gde ću ti kazati.

3 I sutradan rano ustavši Avram osamari magarca svog, i uze sa sobom dva momka i Isaka sina svog; i nacepavši drva za žrtvu podiže se i pođe na mesto koje mu kaza Bog.

4 Treći dan podigavši oči svoje Avram ugleda mesto iz daleka.

5 I reče Avram momcima svojim: Ostanite vi ovde s magarcem, a ja i dete idemo onamo, pa kad se pomolimo Bogu, vratićemo se k vama.

6 I uzevši Avram drva za žrtvu naprti Isaku sinu svom, a sam uze u svoje ruke ognja i nož; pa otidoše obojica zajedno.

7 Tada reče Isak Avramu ocu svom: Oče! A on reče: Šta je, sine! I reče Isak: Eto ognja i drva, a gde je jagnje za žrtvu?

8 A Avram odgovori: Bog će se, sinko, postarati za jagnje sebi na žrtvu. I iđahu obojica zajedno.

9 A kad dođoše na mesto koje mu Bog kaza, Avram načini onde žrtvenik, i metnu drva na nj, i svezavši Isaka sina svog metnu ga na žrtvenik vrh drva;

10 I izmahnu Avram rukom svojom i uze nož da zakolje sina svog.

11 Ali anđeo Gospodnji viknu ga s neba, i reče: Avrame! Avrame! A on reče: Evo me.

12 A anđeo reče: Ne diži ruku svoju na dete, i ne čini mu ništa; jer sada poznah da se bojiš Boga, kad nisi požalio sina svog, jedinca svog, mene radi.

13 I Avram podigavši oči svoje pogleda; i gle, ovan iza njega zapleo se u česti rogovima; i otišavši Avram uze ovna i spali ga na žrtvu mesto sina svog.

14 I nazva Avram ono mesto Gospod će se postarati. Zato se i danas kaže: Na brdu, gde će se Gospod postarati.

15 I anđeo Gospodnji opet viknu s neba Avrama.

16 I reče: Sobom se zakleh, veli Gospod: kad si tako učinio, i nisi požalio sina svog, jedinca svog,

17 Zaista ću te blagosloviti i seme tvoje veoma umnožiti, da ga bude kao zvezda na nebu i kao peska na bregu morskom; i naslediće seme tvoje vrata neprijatelja svojih;

18 I blagosloviće se u semenu tvom svi narodi na zemlji, kad si poslušao glas moj.

19 Tada se Avram vrati k momcima svojim, te se digoše, i otidoše zajedno u Virsaveju, jer Avram živeše u Virsaveji.

20 Posle toga javiše Avramu govoreći: Gle, i Melha rodi sinove bratu tvom Nahoru:

21 Uza prvenca i Vuza brata mu, i Kamuila, oca Aramovog,

22 I Hazada i Azava i Faldesa i Jeldafa i Vatuila.

23 A Vatuilo rodi Reveku. Osam ih rodi Melha Nahoru bratu Avramovom.

24 I inoča njegova, po imenu Revma, rodi i ona Taveka i Gama i Tohosa i Moha.

2814. And laid him on the altar upon the wood. That this signifies in the Human Divine to which righteousness belongs, is evident from the signification of an “altar,” as being the Lord’s Divine Human (see just above, n. 2811); and from the signification of the “wood of a burnt-offering,” as being the merit of righteousness (see n. 2784, 2798, 2812). The Truth Divine in the Lord’s Human Divine, which underwent the temptations, and which has been treated of, is not the Divine Truth itself, for this is above all temptation; but it is rational truth, such as the angels have, consisting in the appearances of truth, and is what is called the “Son of man,” but before the glorification. But the Divine Truth in the Lord’s glorified Divine Human is above appearances, nor can it possibly come to any understanding, and still less to the apprehension of man, nor even to that of angels, and thus not at all to anything of temptation. It appears in the heavens as light which is from the Lord. Concerning this Divine Truth, or the Son of man glorified, it is thus written in John:

Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in Him: if God is glorified in Him, God shall also glorify Him in Himself, and shall straightway glorify Him (John 13:31-32).

That a distinct idea may be had of this very deep arcanum, we may call the Truth with the Lord which could be tempted, and which underwent temptations, Truth Divine in the Lord’s Human Divine; but the Truth which could not be tempted, or undergo any temptation, because it was glorified, the Divine Truth in the Lord’s Divine Human; this distinction has also been observed here and there in what goes before.
