Éxodo 21

Studie

   

1 Y estos son los derechos que les propondrás.

2 Si comprares siervo hebreo, seis años servirá; mas al séptimo saldrá libre de balde.

3 Si entró solo, solo saldrá; si tenía mujer, saldrá él y su mujer con él.

4 Si su amo le hubiere dado mujer, y ella le hubiere dado a luz hijos o hijas, la mujer y sus hijos serán de su amo, y él saldrá solo.

5 Y si el siervo dijere: Yo amo a mi señor, a mi mujer y a mis hijos, no saldré libre.

6 Entonces su amo lo hará llegar a los jueces, y le hará llegar a la puerta o al poste; y su amo le horadará la oreja con lezna, y será su siervo para siempre.

7 Y cuando alguno vendiere su hija por sierva, no saldrá como suelen salir los siervos.

8 Si no agradare a su señor, por lo cual no la tomó por esposa, se permitirá que se rescate, y no la podrá vender a pueblo extraño cuando la desechare.

9 Mas si la hubiere desposado con su hijo, hará con ella según la costumbre de las hijas.

10 Si le tomare otra, no disminuirá su alimento, ni su vestido, ni el deber conyugal.

11 Y si ninguna de estas tres cosas hiciere, ella saldrá de gracia sin dinero.

12 El que hiriere a alguno, haciéndole así morir, él morirá.

13 Mas el que no armó asechanzas, sino que Dios lo puso en sus manos, entonces yo te pondré lugar al cual ha de huir.

14 Además, si alguno se ensoberbeciere contra su prójimo, y lo matare con engaño, de mi altar lo quitarás para que muera.

15 Y el que hiriere a su padre o a su madre, morirá.

16 Asimismo el que robare una persona, y la vendiere, o si fuere hallado en sus manos, morirá.

17 Igualmente el que maldijere a su padre o a su madre, morirá.

18 Además, si algunos riñeren, y alguno hiriere a su prójimo con piedra o con el puño, y no muriere, pero cayere en cama;

19 si se levantare y anduviere fuera sobre su bordón, entonces será el que le hirió absuelto; solamente le satisfará lo que estuvo parado, y hará que le curen.

20 Y si alguno hiriere a su siervo o a su sierva con palo, y muriere bajo su mano, será castigado;

21 mas si durare por un día o dos, no será castigado, porque su dinero es.

22 Si algunos riñeren, e hiriesen a alguna mujer embarazada, y ésta abortare, pero sin haber muerte, será penado conforme a lo que le impusiere el marido de la mujer y pagará por jueces.

23 Mas si hubiere muerte, entonces pagarás vida por vida,

24 Ojo por Ojo, diente por diente, mano por mano, pie por pie,

25 quemadura por quemadura, herida por herida, golpe por golpe.

26 Y cuando alguno hiriere el ojo de su siervo, o el ojo de su sierva, y lo dañare, le dará libertad por razón de su ojo.

27 Y si sacare el diente de su siervo, o el diente de su sierva, por su diente le dejará ir libre.

28 Si un buey acorneare hombre o mujer, y a causa de ello muriere, el buey será apedreado, y no se comerá su carne; mas el dueño del buey será absuelto.

29 Pero si el buey era acorneador desde ayer y antes de ayer, y a su dueño le fue hecho requerimiento, y no lo hubiere guardado, y matare hombre o mujer, el buey será apedreado, y también morirá su dueño.

30 Si le fuere impuesto rescate, entonces dará por el rescate de su persona cuanto le fuere impuesto.

31 Haya acorneado hijo, o haya acorneado hija, conforme a este juicio se hará con él.

32 Si el buey acorneare siervo o sierva, pagará treinta siclos de plata su señor, y el buey será apedreado.

33 Y si alguno abriere alguna cisterna, o cavare cisterna, y no la cubriere, y cayere allí buey o asno,

34 el dueño de la cisterna pagará el dinero, restituyendo a su dueño, y lo que fue muerto será suyo.

35 Y si el buey de alguno hiriere al buey de su prójimo, y éste muriere, entonces venderán el buey vivo, y partirán el dinero de él, y también partirán el muerto.

36 Mas si era notorio que el buey era acorneador de ayer y antes de ayer, y su dueño no lo hubiere guardado, pagará buey por buey, y el muerto será suyo.

8864. 'I am Jehovah your God' means the Lord in respect of the Divine Human reigning universally, in every single aspect of goodness and truth. This is clear from the consideration that in the Word no one other than the Lord is meant by 'Jehovah', 1343, 1736, 2921, 3023, 3035, 3448, 5663, 6280, 6281, 6303, 8274, or likewise by 'Jehovah Zebaoth', 'the Lord Jehovih', and 'Jehovah God', 2921, 3023, 3448, 6303; and from the consideration that the Lord is called 'Jehovah' by virtue of the Divine Good, which is the Divine Being (Esse), and 'God' by virtue of Divine Truth, which is the Divine Coming-into-being (Existere), 6905, and also 709, 732, 1096, 2586, 2769, 2807, 2822, 3921 (end), 4402. The reason why the Lord's Divine Human is what 'Jehovah God' is used to mean here is that the Lord in respect of that Divine Human is meant in the Word both by 'Jehovah' and by 'God'. Divine Good, which He is also in respect of the Human is meant by 'Jehovah', while Divine Truth, which He is because it goes forth from Him, is meant by 'God'.

[2] The reason why the Lord's Divine Human is meant by 'Jehovah God' is that the Divine Itself which is within the Lord cannot be seen in heaven or even perceived, thus cannot be received in faith and love; only the Divine Human can. The truth that the Divine Itself cannot be communicated to angels in heaven, still less to people on earth, except through the Divine Human is well known in the Churches from the Lord's words in the Gospels, where He says that He is the Door; that He is the Mediator; that nobody can come to the Father except through Him; that no one except Himself knows the Father; and that no one has seen the Father, not even some shape He might take. From all this it is evident that it is the Lord who is meant here by 'Jehovah God'. It is also well known that He is also the one who has redeemed the human race and delivered them from hell.

This truth is meant by the words that follow, by 'I brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slaves'. From all this it is now evident that Jehovah God, who spoke from Mount Sinai, is the Lord in respect of the Divine Human.

[3] The reason why this is the first truth to be stated by the Lord from Mount Sinai is that it must be present, reigning universally in each and every truth that follows. For what is stated first must be held in mind and must be seen to reside universally in everything that follows. What 'universally reigning' describes will be seen below. The truths which were stated by the Lord are all of this nature. That is to say, truths stated first must reign in those stated next and incorporate them; these in turn must reign in and incorporate those after that, and so on sequentially. In the present chapter the truths stated next are the Ten Commandments, which are inward truths, and after these the statutes, which are outward truths. The latter and the former must have the Lord - His Divine Human - reigning within them, for they spring from Himself, and are Himself. For, to be sure, truths which are truths all emanate from Him; and the things which emanate from Him are Himself. The truth that the Lord's Divine Human is what must reign in every single part of faith is also well known in the Churches; for they teach that there is no salvation without the Lord, and that all the truth and good of faith comes from Him. Thus since He is the source of faith He is the faith present with a person; and if He is the faith He is also all the truth contained in teachings about faith that are drawn from the Word. This also is the reason why the Lord is called 'the Word'.

[4] The truth that what comes first must reign in what comes next, and so on sequentially, as stated above, is clear from the individual parts of the things spoken by the Lord, in particular from His prayer called the Lord's Prayer. All its parts follow one another in such a sequence that they constitute a pillar so to speak, widening from the top down to the base and holding inside itself the things that appear earlier in the sequence. What is first there is inmost, and what comes after in sequence adds itself gradually to the inmost and in that way grows wider. What is inmost then reigns in all the surrounding parts; it reigns universally, that is, in every detail, for it is essential to the existence of them all.
