Ovadija 1

Studie

1 Utvara Avdijeva. Ovako veli Gospod Gospod za edomsku: Čusmo glas od Gospoda, i glasnik bi poslan k narodima: Ustajte, da ustanemo na nju u boj.

2 Gle, učiniću te malim među narodima, bićeš vrlo prezren.

3 Ponos srca tvog prevari te, tebe, koji živiš u raselinama kamenim, u visokom stanu svom, i govoriš u srcu svom: Ko će me oboriti na zemlju?

4 Da podigneš visoko kao orao i među zvezde da metneš gnezdo svoje, odande ću te oboriti, govori Gospod.

5 Kako si oplenjen?! Da su došli k tebi kradljivci ili lupeži noću, ne bi li pokrali koliko im je dosta? Da su došli k tebi berači vinogradski, ne bi li ostavili pabiraka?

6 Kako se pretraži Isav, kako se nađoše potaje njegove!

7 Do granice te odvedoše svi koji behu s tobom u veri, prevariše te i nadvladaše te koji behu u miru s tobom; koji jedu hleb tvoj podmetnuše ti zamku, da se ne opazi.

8 U onaj dan, govori Gospod, neću li pogubiti mudre u zemlji edomskoj i razumne u gori Isavovoj?

9 I tvoji će se junaci uplašiti, Temane, da se istrebe pokoljem svi iz gore Isavove.

10 Za nasilje učinjeno bratu tvom Jakovu pokriće te stid i istrebićeš se zasvagda.

11 Onaj dan, kad ti stajaše nasuprot; onaj dan, kad inostranci odvođahu u ropstvo vojsku njegovu, i tuđinci ulažahu na vrata njegova i bacahu žreb za Jerusalim, beše i ti kao koji od njih.

12 Ali ti ne trebaše gledati dana brata svog, dana, kad se odvođaše u tuđu zemlju, niti se radovati sinovima Judinim u dan kad propadahu, niti razvaljivati usta u dan nevolje njihove.

13 Ne trebaše ti ući na vrata naroda mog u dan pogibli njihove, ne trebaše da i ti gledaš zlo njihovo u dan pogibli njihove, ni da se dohvataš dobra njihova u dan pogibli njihove.

14 Niti trebaše da staneš na rasputicu da ubijaš bežan njihovu, niti da izdaješ onih koji ostaše u dan nevolje.

15 Jer je dan Gospodnji blizu svim narodima: kako si činio, tako će ti biti, plata će ti se vratiti na glavu tvoju.

16 Jer kao što ste vi pili na svetoj gori mojoj, tako će piti svi narodi vazda, piće, i ždreće, i biće kao da ih nije bilo.

17 A na gori će Sionu biti spasenje, i biće sveta, i dom će Jakovljev naslediti nasledstvo svoje.

18 I dom će Jakovljev biti oganj i dom Josifov plamen, a dom Isavov strnjika; i razgoreće se na njih, i spaliće ih; i neće biti ostataka domu Isavovom, jer Gospod reče.

19 I naslediće jug, goru Isavovu, i ravnicu, Filisteje; i naslediće polje Jefremovo i polje samarijsko i Venijaminovo i Galad;

20 I zarobljena vojska sinova Izrailjevih naslediće šta je bilo hananejsko do Sarepte; a roblje jerusalimsko, što je u Sefaradu, naslediće južne gradove.

21 I izbavitelji će izaći na goru Sion da sude gori Isavovoj, i carstvo će biti Gospodnje.

Doctrine of the Lord # 3

3. We must briefly say here, too, what themes concerning the Lord are found in general and in particular throughout the Prophets of the Old Testament, from Isaiah to Malachi:

1. The Lord came into the world in the fullness of time, which is to say, when the Jews no longer knew Him, and when for that reason nothing of the church remained. And if the Lord had not then come into the world and revealed Himself, mankind would have perished in eternal death. He Himself says in John, “If you do not believe that I am [who I am], you will die in your sins” (John 8:24).

[2] 2. The Lord came into the world to execute a last judgment, and by doing so conquer the hells that were reigning at the time. This He did by combats, that is, by temptations or trials, which He permitted His humanity from His mother to undergo, and by continual victories in them then. If the hells had not been conquered, no one could have been saved.

[3] 3. The Lord came into the world to glorify His humanity, that is, to unite it to the Divinity that He had in Him from conception.

[4] 4. The Lord came into the world to establish a new church which would acknowledge Him as its Redeemer and Savior, so as to be redeemed and saved through love for and faith in Him.

[5] 5. At the same time He did so in order to set heaven in order, in order for it to be in harmony with the church.

[6] 6. His suffering of the cross was the last combat, or temptation or trial, by which He thoroughly conquered the hells and fully glorified His humanity.

That the Word deals with no other matters will be seen later in a short work on the Sacred Scripture.

Isaiah 61:1-2

Studie

      

1 The Spirit of the Lord Yahweh is on me; because Yahweh has anointed me to preach good news to the humble. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to those who are bound;

2 to proclaim the year of Yahweh's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn;
