Postanak 46

Studie

   

1 Tada pođe Izrailj sa svim šta imaše, i došav u Virsaveju prinese žrtvu Bogu oca svog Isaka.

2 I Bog reče Izrailju noću u utvari: Jakove! Jakove! A on odgovori: Evo me.

3 I Bog mu reče: Ja sam Bog, Bog oca tvog; ne boj se otići u Misir; jer ću onde načiniti od tebe narod velik.

4 Ja ću ići s tobom u Misir, i ja ću te odvesti onamo, i Josif će metnuti ruku svoju na oči tvoje.

5 I pođe Jakov od Virsaveje; i sinovi Izrailjevi posadiše Jakova, oca svog i decu svoju i žene svoje na kola koja posla Faraon po nj.

6 I uzeše stoku svoju i blago svoje što behu stekli u zemlji hananskoj; i dođoše u Misir Jakov i sva porodica njegova.

7 Sinove svoje i sinove sinova svojih, kćeri svoje i kćeri sinova svojih, i svu porodicu svoju dovede sa sobom u Misir.

8 A ovo su imena dece Izrailjeve što dođoše u Misir: Jakov i sinovi njegovi. Prvenac Jakovljev Ruvim;

9 I sinovi Ruvimovi: Enoh, Faluj, Esron i Harmija.

10 A sinovi Simeunovi: Jemuilo, Jamin, Aod, Jahin, Soar i Saul, sin jedne Hananejke.

11 Sinovi Levijevi: Girson, Kat i Merarije.

12 Sinovi Judini: Ir, Avnan, Silom, Fares i Zara; a umrli behu Ir i Avnan u zemlji hananskoj, ali behu sinovi Faresovi Esrom i Jemuilo.

13 Sinovi Isaharovi: Tola, Fuva, Jov, i Simron.

14 Sinovi Zavulonovi: Sered, Alon, i Ahojilo.

15 To su sinovi Lijini, koje rodi Jakovu u Padan-Aramu, i jošte Dina kći njegova. Svega duša, sinova njegovih i kćeri njegovih beše trideset i tri.

16 Sinovi Gadovi: Sifon, Agije, Sunije, Esvon, Irije, Arodije i Arilije.

17 Sinovi Asirovi: Jemna, Jesva, Jesvija i Verija, i sestra njihova Sara. A sinovi Verijini Hovor i Melhilo.

18 To su sinovi Zelfe, koju dade Lavan Liji kćeri svojoj, i ona ih rodi Jakovu, šesnaest duša.

19 A sinovi Rahilje žene Jakovljeve: Josif i Venijamin.

20 A Josifu se rodiše u Misiru od Asenete, kćeri Potifere sveštenika onskog: Manasija i Jefrem.

21 A sinovi Venijaminovi: Vela, Veher, Asvil, Gira, Naman, Ihije, Ros, Mupim, Upim i Arad.

22 To su sinovi Rahiljini što se rodiše Jakovu, svega četrnaest duša.

23 I sin Danov: Asom.

24 A sinovi Neftalimovi: Asilo, Gunije, Jeser i Silim.

25 To su sinovi Vale, koju dade Lavan Rahilji kćeri svojoj i ona ih rodi Jakovu; svega sedam duša.

26 A svega duša što dođoše s Jakovom u Misir, a izađoše od bedara njegovih, osim žena sinova Jakovljevih, svega duša beše šezdeset i šest.

27 I dva sina Josifova koji mu se rodiše u Misiru; svega dakle duša doma Jakovljevog, što dođoše u Misir, beše sedamdeset.

28 A Judu posla Jakov napred k Josifu, da mu javi da izađe preda nj u Gesem. I dođoše u zemlju gesemsku.

29 A Josif upreže u kola svoja, i izađe na susret Izrailju ocu svom u Gesem; i kad ga vide Jakov, pade mu oko vrata, i plaka dugo o vratu njegovom.

30 I reče Izrailj Josifu: Sada ne marim umreti kad sam te video da si jošte živ.

31 A Josif reče braći svojoj i domu oca svog: Idem da javim Faraonu; ali ću mu kazati: Braća moja i dom oca mog iz zemlje hananske dođoše k meni;

32 A ti su ljudi pastiri i svagda su se bavili oko stoke, i dovedoše ovce svoje i goveda svoja i šta god imaju.

33 A kad vas Faraon dozove, reći će vam: Kakvu radnju radite?

34 A vi kažite: Pastiri su bile sluge tvoje od mladosti, i mi i stari naši; da biste ostali u zemlji gesemskoj; jer su Misircima svi Pastiri nečisti.

7268. 'See, I have made you a god to Pharaoh' means the law of God and the power it has over those steeped in falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'making you a god' as Divine Truth, or what amounts to the same thing, the Divine Law, and also the power it has, for in the Word when truth and also the power of truth are referred to the name 'God' appears, but when good is referred to the name 'Jehovah' does so, see 300, 2586, 2769, 2807, 2822, 3910, 3921 (end), 4287, 4295, 4402, 7010; and from the representation of 'Pharaoh' as those who are steeped in falsities and engage in molestation, dealt with in 6651, 6679, 6683. To pursue further the meaning of GOD, it should be recognized that in the highest sense 'God' is the Divine which is above the heavens, but that in the internal sense 'God' is the Divine which is within the heavens. The Divine which is above the heavens is Divine Good, whereas the Divine within the heavens is Divine Truth. For Divine Good is the source from which Divine Truth springs, and Divine Truth springing from Divine Good makes heaven and brings order into it. What is properly called heaven is nothing other than the Divine that has been given form there, for the angels in heaven are human forms receptive of the Divine, which together constitute an all-embracing form which is that of a Human Being.

[2] The use of 'God' in the Old Testament Word to mean Divine Truth within the heavens explains why the word for God in the original language is Elohim, a plural form. It also explains why the angels in heaven, being receivers of Divine Truth, are called 'gods', as in David,

Who in heaven will compare himself to Jehovah? Who will be likened to Jehovah among the sons of gods? Psalms 89:6-8.

In the same author,

Give to Jehovah, O sons of gods, give to Jehovah glory and strength. Psalms 29:1.

In the same author,

I said, You are gods, and sons of the Most High, all of you. Psalms 82:6.

In John,

Jesus said, Is it not written in your Law, I said, You are gods? If 1 He called them gods, with whom the Word of God came to be . . . John 10:34-35.

In addition there are those places in which the Lord is called 'God of gods' and 'Lord of lords', such as Genesis 46:2, 7; Deuteronomy 10:17; Numbers 16:22; Daniel 11:36; Psalms 136:2-3. From all this one may see in what sense Moses is called 'a god', here 'a god to Pharaoh' and in Exodus 4:16 'a god to Aaron' - that he was called such because Moses represented the Divine Law, which is Divine Truth and is called the Word. This also explains why here Aaron is called his 'prophet', and in a previous place his 'mouth', that is, one who declares in a way suitable for the understanding Divine Truth which comes forth directly from the Lord and surpasses all understanding And since a prophet is one who teaches and declares Divine Truth in a way suitable for the understanding, 'a prophet' also means the teachings of the Church, a subject dealt with in what follows next.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. Reading si (if) which accords with the Greek and which Swedenborg has in another place where he quotes this verse, for sic (thus).
