Isus Navin 6

Studie

   

1 A Jerihon se zatvori, i čuvaše se od sinova Izrailjevih; niko nije izlazio, niti je ko ulazio.

2 A Gospod reče Isusu: Evo, dajem ti u ruke Jerihon i cara njegovog i junake njegove.

3 Zato obiđite oko grada svi vojnici, idući oko grada jedanput na dan; tako učinite šest dana.

4 A sedam sveštenika neka nose sedam truba od rogova ovnujskih pred kovčegom; a sedmog dana obiđite oko grada sedam puta, i sveštenici neka trube u trube.

5 Pa kad otežući zatrube u rogove ovnujske, čim čujete glas od trube, neka poviče sav narod glasno; i zidovi će gradski popadati na svom mestu, a narod neka ulazi, svaki naprema se.

6 Tada Isus sin Navin dozva sveštenike, i reče im: Uzmite kovčeg zavetni, a sedam sveštenika neka nose sedam truba od rogova ovnujskih pred kovčegom Gospodnjim.

7 A narodu reče: Idite i obiđite oko grada, i vojnici neka idu pred kovčegom Gospodnjim.

8 A kad Isus reče narodu, sedam sveštenika noseći sedam truba od rogova ovnujskih pođoše pred Gospodom, i zatrubiše u trube, a kovčeg zaveta Gospodnjeg pođe za njima.

9 A vojnici pođoše pred sveštenicima, koji trubljahu u trube, a ostali pođoše za kovčegom; i idući trubljahu u trube.

10 A narodu zapovedi Isus govoreći: Ne vičite, i nemojte da vam se čuje glas, i nijedna reč da ne izađe iz usta vaših do dana kad vam ja kažem: Vičite; tada ćete vikati.

11 Tako obiđe kovčeg Gospodnji oko grada jednom; pa se vratiše u logor, i noćiše u logoru.

12 A sutra usta Isus rano, i sveštenici uzeše kovčeg Gospodnji.

13 I sedam sveštenika noseći sedam truba od rogova ovnujskih iđahu pred kovčegom Gospodnjim, i idući trubljahu u trube; a vojnici iđahu pred njima, a ostali iđahu za kovčegom Gospodnjim; idući trubljahu u trube.

14 I jednom obiđoše oko grada drugog dana, pa se vratiše u logor; tako učiniše šest dana.

15 A sedmog dana ustaše zorom, i obiđoše oko grada isto onako sedam puta; samo toga dana obiđoše oko grada sedam puta.

16 A kad bi sedmi put da zatrube sveštenici u trube, Isus reče narodu: Vičite, jer vam Gospod dade grad.

17 A grad da bude proklet Gospodu i šta je god u njemu; samo Rava kurva neka ostane u životu i svi koji budu kod nje u kući, jer sakri poslanike koje smo poslali.

18 Ali se čuvajte od prokletih stvari da i sami ne budete prokleti uzevši šta prokleto, i da ne navučete prokletstvo na logor Izrailjev i smetete ga.

19 Nego sve srebro i zlato i posuđe od bronze i od gvožđa neka bude sveto Gospodu, neka uđe u riznicu Gospodnju.

20 Tada povika narod i zatrubiše trube, i kad narod ču glas trubni i povika glasno, popadaše zidovi na mestu svom; i narod uđe u grad, svaki naprema se; i uzeše grad.

21 I pobiše, kao prokleto, oštrim mačem sve što beše u gradu, i žene i ljude, i decu, i starce i volove i ovce i magarce.

22 A onoj dvojici što uhodiše zemlju reče Isus: Idite u kuću one žene kurve, i izvedite nju i sve što je njeno, kao što ste joj se zakleli.

23 I otišavši oni momci što uhodiše zemlju, izvedoše Ravu i oca joj i mater joj i braću joj i šta god beše njeno, i sav rod njen izvedoše, i ostaviše ih iza logora Izrailjevog.

24 A grad spališe ognjem i šta beše u njemu; samo srebro i zlato i posuđe od bronze i od gvožđa metnuše u riznicu doma Gospodnjeg.

25 A Ravu kurvu i dom oca njenog i sve što beše njeno ostavi u životu Isus, i ona osta među Izrailjcima do danas, jer sakri poslanike koje posla Isus da uhode Jerihon.

26 I u to vreme prokle Isus govoreći: Proklet da je pred Gospodom čovek koji bi ustao da gradi ovaj grad Jerihon! Na prvencu svom osnovao ga, i na mezimcu svom postavio mu vrata!

27 I Gospod beše sa Isusom, i razglasi se ime njegovo po svoj zemlji.

55. And I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, signifies manifest perception of Divine truth about to be revealed from heaven. This is evident from the signification of "hearing," as being to perceive and obey (See Arcana Coelestia 2542, 3869, 4653, 5017, 7216, 8361, 8990, 9311, 9397); and from the signification of "behind me," as being manifestly (of which hereafter); and from the signification of "voice," when heard out of heaven, as being Divine truth (See Arcana Coelestia 219-220, 3563, 6971, 8813, 8914); and from the signification of a "trumpet," as being truth to be revealed out of heaven (of which hereafter). "Behind me" signifies manifestly, because the things that flow in from heaven into man's affection flow in into the occipital region, and come thus into his manifest perception; for whatever enters into affection is manifestly perceived, for the whole life of perception is from affection; but whatever flows out of heaven immediately into the thought flows into the region above the forehead. (Concerning this influx, see in the work on Heaven and Hell 251.) From this it is clear what is signified by John's having heard "behind him," and by his afterwards "having turned to see the voice which spoke with him." A "trumpet" or "horn" signifies Divine truth about to be revealed out of heaven, because sometimes Divine truth is heard in this way when it flows down from the Lord through the heavens with man; for it is increased in coming down; and it thus flows in. But it is thus heard only in the beginning with those through whom Divine truth is to be revealed in the ultimate sense, which is representative of interior things. But afterwards it is heard as a human voice. From this it is evident why "the voice of a trumpet" or "horn" signifies Divine truth about to be revealed out of heaven.

[2] He who is aware that "trumpet" or "horn," signifies Divine truth out of heaven can understand many passages in the Word where these are mentioned. As in Matthew:

He shall send forth His angel, with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together the elect from the four winds (Matthew 24:31).

In Isaiah:

All ye inhabitants of the world, and ye dwellers on the earth, when the sign of the mountains shall be lifted up, see ye; and when the trumpet is blown, hear ye (Isaiah 18:3).

In Jeremiah:

Proclaim with the trumpet in the land. Set up a standard towards Zion. How long shall I see the standard, and hear the sound of the trumpet? For my people are foolish, they are sottish sons, and they have no understanding (Jeremiah 4:5-6, 21-22).

In the same:

I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken. Therefore hear, ye nations (Jeremiah 6:17-18).

In Ezekiel:

He heard the sound of the trumpet, and took not warning; his blood shall be upon him; whereas if he had taken warning he should have delivered his soul (Ezekiel 33:5).

In Hosea:

[Set] the trumpet to thy mouth, because they have transgressed My covenant, and trespassed against My law (Hosea 8:1).

In Zechariah:

The Lord Jehovih shall blow the trumpet, and shall go with the whirlwinds of the south (Zechariah 9:14).

In David:

God is gone up with a shout, and Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet (Psalms 47:5).

And also in Revelation (chap. Revelation 4:1; 8:2, 7-8, 13; 9:1, 13, 14; 10:7; 18:22). Because a "trumpet" signified Divine truth, therefore when Divine truth was first about to be revealed before the people of Israel:

Sounds of a trumpet were heard from Mount Sinai (Exodus 19:16).

For this reason sounding the trumpet became representative with them:

When they were to assemble, and when they went forward, and also in their solemnities, at the beginnings of months, at burnt-offerings and eucharistic sacrifices (Numbers 10:1-10).

They also sounded trumpets when they went forth to battle against the Midianites (Numbers 31:6).

And when they took the city of Jericho (Joshua 6:4-20);

for wars and battles signified spiritual combats, which are combats of truth against falsity, and of falsity against truth.
