Osija 14

Studie

   

1 Obrati se, Izrailju, ka Gospodu Bogu svom, jer si pao svog radi bezakonja.

2 Uzmite sa sobom reči, i obratite se ka Gospodu; recite Mu: Oprosti sve bezakonje, i primi dobro; i daćemo žrtve usana svojih.

3 Asirac nas ne može izbaviti, nećemo jahati na konjima, niti ćemo više govoriti delu ruku svojih: Bože naš; jer u Tebe nalazi milost sirota.

4 Isceliću otpad njihov, ljubiću ih drage volje; jer će se gnev moj odvratiti od njega.

5 Biću kao rosa Izrailju, procvetaće kao ljiljan i pustiće žile svoje kao drveta livanska.

6 Raširiće se grane njegove, i lepota će mu biti kao u masline i miris kao livanski.

7 Oni će se vratiti i sedeti pod senom njegovim, rađaće kao žito i cvetaće kao vinova loza; spomen će mu biti kao vino livansko.

8 Jefreme, šta će mi više idoli? Ja ću ga uslišiti i gledati; ja ću mu biti kao jela zelena; od mene je tvoj plod.

9 Ko je mudar, neka razume ovo; i razuman neka pozna ovo; jer su pravi putevi Gospodnji, i pravednici će hoditi po njima, a prestupnici će pasti na njima.

Apocalypse Revealed # 243

243. The third living creature had a face like a human being. This symbolizes the Divine truth of the Word in respect to its wisdom.

A human being in the Word symbolizes wisdom, because the human being was born to receive wisdom from the Lord and become an angel. The wiser someone is, therefore, the more human he is. True human wisdom consists in perceiving the existence of God, the nature of God, and what pertains to God. This is what the Divine truth of the Word teaches.

That a human being symbolizes wisdom is apparent from the following passages:

I will make a man more rare than fine gold, and a human being more rare than the gold of Ophir. (Isaiah 13:12)

A man means intelligence, and a human being wisdom.

...the inhabitants of the earth shall be burned up, and rare will be the human being left. (Isaiah 24:6)

...I will sow the house of Israel and the house of Judah with the seed of a human being and the seed of an animal. (Jeremiah 31:27)

You are My flock...; you are humankind, I am your God. (Ezekiel 34:31)

...the ruined cities shall be filled with a flock of humankind. (Ezekiel 36:38)

I looked upon the earth when, lo, it was empty and void, and to the heavens when they had not their light... I looked when, lo, there was no human being... (Jeremiah 4:23, 25)

They sacrifice a human being, they kiss the calves. (Hosea 13:2)

He measured the wall (of the Holy Jerusalem): one hundred and forty-four cubits, the measure of a human being, which is that of an angel. (Revelation 21:17)

So, too, in many other places, where a human being symbolizes someone who is wise, and in an abstract sense, wisdom itself.
