Postanak 49

Studie

   

1 Posle sazva Jakov sinove svoje i reče: Skupite se da vam javim šta će vam biti do posletka.

2 Skupite se i poslušajte, sinovi Jakovljevi, poslušajte Izrailja oca svog.

3 Ruvime, ti si prvenac moj, krepost moja i početak sile moje; prvi gospodstvom i prvi snagom.

4 Navro si kao voda; nećeš biti prvi; jer si stao na postelju oca svog i oskvrnio je legav na nju.

5 Simeun i Levije, braća, mačevi su im oružje nepravdi.

6 U tajne njihove da ne ulazi duša moja, sa zborom njihovim da se ne sastavlja slava moja; jer u gnevu svom pobiše ljude, i za svoje veselje pokidaše volove.

7 Proklet da je gnev njihov, što beše nagao, i ljutina njihova, što beše žestoka; razdeliću ih po Jakovu, i rasuću ih po Izrailju.

8 Juda, tebe će hvaliti braća tvoja, a ruka će ti biti za vratom neprijateljima tvojim, i klanjaće ti se sinovi oca tvog.

9 Laviću Juda! S plena si se vratio, sine moj; spusti se i leže kao lav i kao ljuti lav; ko će ga probuditi?

10 Palica vladalačka neće se odvojiti od Jude niti od nogu njegovih onaj koji postavlja zakon, dokle ne dođe Onaj kome pripada, i Njemu će se pokoravati narodi.

11 Veže za čokot magare svoje, i za plemenitu lozu mlade od magarice svoje; u vinu pere haljinu svoju i ogrtač svoj u soku od grožđa.

12 Oči mu se crvene od vina i zubi bele od mleka.

13 Zavulon će živeti pokraj mora i gde pristaju lađe, a međa će mu biti do Sidona.

14 Isahar je magarac jak u kostima, koji leži u toru,

15 I vide da je počivanje dobro i da je zemlja mila, sagnuće ramena svoja da nosi, i plaćaće danak.

16 Dan će suditi svom narodu, kao jedno između plemena Izrailjevih.

17 Dan će biti zmija na putu i guja na stazi, koja ujeda konja za kičicu, te pada konj na uznako.

18 Gospode, Tebe čekam da me izbaviš.

19 A Gad, njega će vojska savladati; ali će najposle on nadvladati.

20 U Asira će biti obilata hrana, i on će davati slasti carske.

21 Neftalim je košuta puštena, i govoriće lepe reči.

22 Josif je rodna grana, rodna grana kraj izvora, kojoj se ogranci raširiše svrh zida.

23 Ako ga i ucveliše ljuto i streljaše na nj, i biše mu neprijatelji strelci,

24 Opet osta jak luk njegov i ojačaše mišice ruku njegovih od ruku jakog Boga Jakovljevog, odakle posta pastir, kamen Izrailju,

25 Od silnog Boga oca tvog, koji će ti pomagati, i od Svemogućeg, koji će te blagosloviti blagoslovima ozgo s neba, blagoslovima ozdo iz bezdana, blagoslovima od dojaka i od materice.

26 Blagoslovi oca tvog nadvisiše blagoslove mojih starih svrh brda večnih, neka budu nad glavom Josifovom i nad temenom odvojenog između braće.

27 Venijamin je vuk grabljivi, jutrom jede lov, a večerom deli plen.

28 Ovo su dvanaest plemena Izrailjevih, i ovo im otac izgovori kad ih blagoslovi, svako blagoslovom njegovim blagoslovi ih.

29 Potom im zapovedi i reče im: Kad se priberem k rodu svom, pogrebite me kod otaca mojih u pećini koja je na njivi Efrona Hetejina,

30 U pećini koja je na njivi makpelskoj prema Mamriji u zemlji hananskoj, koju kupi Avram s njivom u Efrona Hetejina da ima svoj grob.

31 Onde pogrebe Avrama i Saru ženu njegovu, onde pogreboše Isaka i Reveku ženu njegovu, i onde pogreboh Liju.

32 A kupljena je njiva i pećina na njoj u sinova Hetovih.

33 A kad izgovori Jakov zapovesti sinovima svojim, diže noge svoje na postelju, i umre, i pribran bi k rodu svom.

6362. Verses 8-12 Judah are you, your brothers will praise you; your hand will be on the neck of your enemies. Your father's sons will bow down to you. A lion's cub is Judah; from the plunder you have gone up, my son. He crouched, he lay down like a lion, and like an old lion; who will rouse him? The sceptre will not be removed from Judah, or a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh comes; and to him will be the obedience of the peoples. He binds his young ass to the vine, and the foal of his she-ass to the outstanding vine; he washes his clothing in wine, and his garment in the blood of grapes. His eyes are red from wine, and his teeth white from milk.

'Judah are you' means the celestial Church, in the highest sense the Lord's Divine celestial. 'Your brothers will praise you' means that this Church is superior to all the rest. 'Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies' means that the hellish and devilish crew will flee from its presence. 'Your father's sons will bow down to you' means that truths will submit themselves of their own accord. 'A lion's cub is Judah' means innocence with innate strength. 'From the plunder you have gone up, my son' means that through the celestial the Lord accomplishes the deliverance of many from hell. 'He crouched, he lay down like a lion, and like an old lion' means the good of love and the truth from that good in their power. 'Who will rouse him?' means that he is safe when among all those in the hells. 'The sceptre will not be removed from Judah' means that power and control will not depart from the celestial kingdom. 'Or a lawgiver from between his feet' means truths from that kingdom in lower things. 'Until Shiloh comes' means the Lord's Coming, and the peaceful tranquillity at that time. 'And to him will be the obedience of the peoples' means that from His Divine Human truths would go forth that were able to be received. 1 'He binds his young ass to the vine' means truth in the natural for the external Church. 'And the foal of his she-ass to the outstanding vine' means truth from the rational for the internal Church. 'He washes his clothing in wine' means that His Natural consists in Divine Truth from His Divine Good. 'And his garment in the blood of grapes' means that His Intellect consists in Divine Good from His Divine Love. 'His eyes are red from wine' means that His Intellect or Internal Human is nothing else than good. 'And his teeth white from milk' means that the Divine Natural is nothing else than the good of truth.

Poznámky pod čarou:

1. The three Latin words rendered here as "that were able to be received" do not appear in the Latin edition, only in Swedenborg's rough draft, where however they are possibly deleted. But cp 6374.
