Jevanðelje po Mateju 12

Studie

   

1 U to vreme iđaše Isus u subotu kroz useve: a učenici Njegovi ogladneše, i počeše trgati klasje, i jesti.

2 A fariseji videvši to rekoše Mu: Gle, učenici tvoji čine šta ne valja činiti u subotu.

3 A On reče im: Niste li čitali šta učini David kad ogladne, on i koji behu s njim?

4 Kako uđe u kuću Božju, i hlebove postavljene pojede, kojih nije valjalo jesti njemu ni onima što su bili s njim, nego samim sveštenicima.

5 Ili niste čitali u zakonu kako u subotu sveštenici u crkvi subotu pogane, pa nisu krivi?

6 A ja vam kažem da je ovde onaj koji je veći od crkve.

7 Kad biste pak znali šta je to: Milosti hoću a ne priloga, nikad ne biste osuđivali prave;

8 Jer je Gospodar i od subote Sin čovečiji.

9 I otišavši odande dođe u zbornicu njihovu.

10 I gle, čovek beše tu s rukom suvom; i zapitaše Ga govoreći: Valja li u subotu lečiti? Da bi Ga okrivili.

11 A On reče im: Koji je među vama čovek koji ima ovcu jednu pa ako ona u subotu upadne u jamu neće je uzeti i izvaditi?

12 A koliko je čovek pretežniji od ovce? Dakle valja u subotu dobro činiti.

13 Tada reče čoveku: Pruži ruku svoju. I pruži. I postade zdrava kao i druga.

14 A fariseji izišavši načiniše veće o Njemu kako bi Ga pogubili. No Isus doznavši to ukloni se odande.

15 I za Njim idoše ljudi mnogi, i isceli ih sve.

16 I zapreti im da Ga ne razglašuju:

17 Da se zbude šta je kazao Isaija prorok govoreći:

18 Gle, sluga moj, koga sam izabrao, ljubazni moj, koji je po volji duše moje: metnuću duh svoj na Njega, i sud neznabošcima javiće.

19 Neće se svađati ni vikati, niti će čuti ko po rasputicama glas Njegov.

20 Trsku stučenu neće prelomiti i sveštilo zapaljeno neće ugasiti dok pravda ne održi pobedu.

21 I u ime Njegovo uzdaće se narodi.

22 Tada dovedoše k Njemu besnoga koji beše nem i slep; i isceli ga da nemi i slepi stade govoriti i gledati.

23 I divljahu se svi ljudi govoreći: Nije li ovo Hristos, sin Davidov?

24 A fariseji čuvši to rekoše: Ovaj drugačije ne izgoni đavola do pomoću Veelzevula kneza đavolskog.

25 A Isus znajući misli njihove reče im: Svako carstvo koje se razdeli samo po sebi, opusteće; i svaki grad ili dom koji se razdeli sam po sebi, propašće.

26 I ako sotona sotonu izgoni, sam po sebi razdelio se; kako će dakle ostati carstvo njegovo?

27 I ako ja pomoću Veelzevula izgonim đavole, sinovi vaši čijom pomoću izgone? Zato će vam oni biti sudije.

28 A ako li ja Duhom Božijim izgonim đavole, dakle je došlo k vama carstvo nebesko.

29 Ili kako može ko ući u kuću jakoga i pokućstvo njegovo oteti, ako najpre ne sveže jakoga? I onda će kuću njegovu opleniti.

30 Koji nije sa mnom, protiv mene je; i koji ne sabira sa mnom, prosipa.

31 Zato vam kažem: svaki greh i hula oprostiće se ljudima; a na Duha Svetog hula neće se oprostiti ljudima.

32 I ako ko reče reč na Sina čovečijeg, oprostiće mu se; a koji reče reč na Duha Svetog, neće mu se oprostiti ni na ovom svetu ni na onom.

33 Ili usadite drvo dobro, i rod njegov biće dobar; ili usadite drvo zlo, i rod njegov zao biće; jer se po rodu drvo poznaje.

34 Porodi aspidini! Kako možete dobro govoriti, kad ste zli? Jer usta govore od suviška srca.

35 Dobar čovek iz dobre kleti iznosi dobro; a zao čovek iz zle kleti iznosi zlo.

36 A ja vam kažem da će za svaku praznu reč koju kažu ljudi dati odgovor u dan strašnog suda.

37 Jer ćeš se svojim rečima opravdati, i svojim ćeš se rečima osuditi.

38 Tada odgovoriše neki od književnika i fariseja govoreći: Učitelju! Mi bi radi od tebe znak videti.

39 A On odgovarajući reče im: Rod zli i preljubotvorni traži znak; i neće mu se dati znak osim znaka Jone proroka.

40 Jer kao što je Jona bio u trbuhu kitovom tri dana i tri noći: tako će biti i Sin čovečiji u srcu zemlje tri dana i tri noći.

41 Ninevljani izići će na sud s rodom ovim, i osudiće ga; jer se pokajaše Joninim poučenjem: a gle, ovde je veći od Jone.

42 Carica južna izići će na sud s rodom ovim, i osudiće ga; jer ona dođe s kraja zemlje da sluša premudrost Solomunovu: a gle, ovde je veći od Solomuna.

43 A kad nečisti duh iziđe iz čoveka, ide kroz bezvodna mesta tražeći pokoja, i ne nađe ga.

44 Onda reče: Da se vratim u dom svoj otkuda sam izišao; i došavši nađe prazan, pometen i ukrašen.

45 Tada otide i uzme sedam drugih duhova gorih od sebe, i ušavši žive onde; i bude potonje gore čoveku onom od prvog. Tako će biti i ovome rodu zlome.

46 Dok On još govoraše s ljudima, gle, mati Njegova i braća Njegova stajahu napolju i čekahu da govore s Njime.

47 I neko Mu reče: Evo mati Tvoja i braća Tvoja stoje na polju, radi su da govore s Tobom.

48 A On odgovori i reče onome što Mu kaza: Ko je mati moja, i ko su braća moja?

49 I pruživši ruku svoju na učenike svoje reče: Eto mati moja i braća moja. Jer ko izvršuje volju Oca mog koji je na nebesima, onaj je brat moj i sestra i mati.

1361. The fact that the Church became representative as the result of idolatry nobody is able to know unless he knows what a representative is. The things that were represented in the Jewish Church, and in the Word, are the Lord and His kingdom, and therefore the celestial things of love and the spiritual things of faith. These are the things that are represented, in addition to many things that go with them, such as everything belonging to the Church. Those that represent are either persons or else things in the universe or on this earth; in short, all things that are objects of the senses, so much so that scarcely any object is incapable of being representative. It is a general law of representation however that no attention is paid to the representative person or thing, but to the actual subject being represented.

[2] For example: Every king who has lived - in Judah or Israel, or even in Egypt and elsewhere - could represent the Lord Their royal status itself is representative, and thus the worst king of all was able to represent Him, such as the Pharaoh who promoted Joseph over the land of Egypt, or Nebuchadnezzar in Babylon, Daniel 2:37-38, or Saul and all the other kings of Judah and Israel, no matter what kind of men they were. The anointing of them, by virtue of which they were called 'Jehovah's anointed', carried that representation with it. In the same way all priests, however many there were, represented the Lord. Their priestly status itself is representative. This applies even to priests who were evil and immoral, for in representatives no attention is paid to the character of the person involved. And not only human beings but also animals were representative, for example all those used in sacrifice. Lambs and sheep represented celestial things, doves and turtle doves spiritual, as did rams, he-goats, young bulls, and oxen, though these latter represented lower types of celestial and spiritual things.

[3] Nor, as has been stated, was it just living creatures that were representative but also inanimate objects, such as the altar and even the stones of the altar; also the Ark and the Tabernacle together with everything in it; and the Temple too together with everything in it, a fact that anyone is capable of seeing. The lamps, the loaves, and Aaron's garments were accordingly representative. And not only these but also all the religious ceremonies in the Jewish Church. In the Ancient Churches representatives extended to every object of the senses, such as mountains and hills, and valleys, plains, rivers, streams, springs, reservoirs, woods, trees in general, and every kind of tree in particular, so that every single tree had some definite meaning. Once the Church of meaningful signs had come to an end these things became representatives. These considerations make clear what is to be understood by representatives. And seeing that not only human beings, no matter who or of what character, but also animals and even inanimate objects, could represent celestial and spiritual things - which are things belonging to the Lord's kingdom in heaven and those belonging to the Lord's kingdom on earth - it is consequently clear what a representative Church is.

[4] Representatives were such that to spirits and angels all things that were carried out according to the prescribed ritual appeared holy, as when the high priest, who had washed himself with water, ministered dressed in the robes of his office, and stood before the lighted candles, no matter what kind of man he was, even the most immoral and an idolater at heart. And the same applied to all other priests, for, as has been stated, in representatives no attention is paid to the person, but only to the actual thing being represented. The representation was completely abstracted from the person, as it was from the oxen, young bulls, or lambs that were sacrificed, or from the blood that was poured out around the altar, or again from the altar itself, and so on.

[5] This representative Church was established after all internal worship had perished, when worship became not only wholly external but also idolatrous It was established so that heaven might be joined in some measure to the earth, that is, the Lord might be joined to human beings by means of heaven. And this came about after conjunction by means of the internal things of worship had perished. The nature of this conjunction by means of representatives alone will in the Lord's Divine mercy be discussed later on. Representatives do not start until the next chapter, where every single thing from then on is purely representative. At the moment the subject is the state of those who were their forefathers, before some of them and their descendants became representative, whose worship, as shown above, was idolatrous.
