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.

Thirty

  

'Thirty' has a twofold significance because it is is the product of five and six, and also three and ten. From five multiplied by six, it signifies some aspect of combat, because 'five' signifies some part or aspect, and 'six,' combat. From three multiplied by ten, it signifies something full of remains of good and truth, because 'three' signifies fullness, and 'ten,' remains of good and truth. A composite number involves the same as the simple numbers it has as its factors.

6053. INFLUX AND THE INTERACTION OF THE SOUL WITH THE BODY

No one can have any knowledge at all or even be able to think about the influx of the soul into the body, or about the interaction of them, unless he knows what the soul is and also something about the nature of the soul. If nothing is known about what the soul is, nothing at all can be said about its inflow and interaction; for how can anyone think about two parts communicating with each other when there is complete lack of knowledge about the nature of one of them? The lack of knowledge, particularly in the learned world, about the whole nature of the soul may be seen from the fact that some people think it is something ethereal, others something flame-like or fiery, others something existing purely on the level of thought, others a general life-force, and others some natural force. Still greater lack of knowledge about what the soul may be is demonstrated by the varying places in the body to which people assign it. Some assign it to the heart, others to the brain - some to its fibres, others to the corpora striata, others to its ventricles, and others to its tiny glands. Others assign it to every part of the body, but these people's conception is of a vitality like that common to everything that has life in it. From this it is evident that people know nothing at all about the soul. This is the reason why the ideas they have peddled around regarding the soul are all guesswork. And since for this reason they cannot have any idea of what the soul is, very many cannot do other than suppose that it is no more than vitality that is dissipated when the body dies. This now explains why the learned have less belief than the simple in a life after death; and because they have no belief in it they cannot have any belief in anything belonging to that life, that is, in the celestial and spiritual realities constituting faith and love. This is also evident from the Lord's words in Matthew,

You have hidden these things from the wise and intelligent and have revealed them to young children. Matthew 11:15.

And again,

Those who see do not see, and those who hear do not hear, nor do they understand. Matthew 13:13.

For the simple do not think at all about the soul in the way that the learned do but believe that they will be alive after death. Concealed within their simple faith, though they are not conscious of it, is the belief that they will live there as people, seeing the angels, talking to them, and being filled with joy.
