Ezequiel 24

Studie

   

1 Y vino Palabra del SEÑOR a mí en el noveno año, en el mes décimo, a los diez del mes, diciendo:

2 Hijo de hombre, escríbete el nombre de este día; el rey de Babilonia puso sitio sobre Jerusalén este mismo día.

3 Y habla a la casa de rebelión por parábola, y diles: Así dijo el Señor DIOS: Pon una olla, ponla, y echa también en ella agua;

4 junta sus piezas de carne en ella; todas buenas piezas, pierna y espalda; llénala de huesos escogidos.

5 Toma una oveja escogida; y también enciende los huesos debajo de ella; haz que hierva bien; cuece también sus huesos dentro de ella.

6 Pues así dijo el Señor DIOS: ¡Ay de la ciudad de sangre, de la olla no espumada, y cuya espuma no salió de ella! Por sus piezas, por sus piezas sácala; no caiga sobre ella suerte (de herencia ).

7 Porque su sangre fue en medio de ella; sobre la cima de la piedra la puso; no la derramó sobre la tierra para que fuese cubierta con polvo.

8 Para hacer subir la ira para hacer venganza, yo puse su sangre sobre el lugar alto de la piedra, para que no sea cubierta.

9 Por tanto, así dijo el Señor DIOS: ¡Ay de la ciudad de sangre! Pues también haré yo gran hoguera,

10 multiplicando la leña, encendiendo el fuego, para consumir la carne, y hacer la salsa; y los huesos serán quemados;

11 asentando después la olla vacía sobre sus brasas, para que se caldee, y se queme su fondo, y se funda en ella su suciedad, y se consuma su espuma.

12 En fraude se cansó, y nunca salió de ella su mucha espuma. En fuego será su espuma consumida.

13 En tu suciedad perversa padecerás , porque te limpié, y tú no te limpiaste de tu suciedad; nunca más te limpiarás, hasta que yo haga descansar mi ira sobre ti.

14 Yo, el SEÑOR, hablé; vine, e hice. No me tornaré atrás, ni tendré misericordia, ni me arrepentiré; según tus caminos y tus obras te juzgarán, dijo el SEÑOR DIOS.

15 Y vino Palabra del SEÑOR a mí, diciendo:

16 Hijo de hombre, he aquí que yo te quito por muerte el deseo de tus ojos; no endeches, ni llores, ni corran tus lágrimas.

17 Reprime el suspirar, no hagas luto de mortuorios; ata tu turbante sobre ti, y pon tus zapatos en tus pies, y no te cubras con rebozo, ni comas pan de consuelo.

18 Y hablé al pueblo por la mañana, y a la tarde murió mi mujer; y a la mañana hice como me fue mandado.

19 Y me dijo el pueblo: ¿No nos enseñarás qué nos significan estas cosas que tú haces?

20 Y yo les dije: Palabra del SEÑOR vino a mí, diciendo:

21 Di a la Casa de Israel: Así dijo el Señor Dios: He aquí yo profano mi santuario, la gloria de vuestra fortaleza, el deseo de vuestros ojos, y el regalo de vuestra alma; vuestros hijos y vuestras hijas que dejasteis, caerán a cuchillo.

22 Y haréis de la manera que yo hice; no os cubriréis con rebozo, ni comeréis pan de hombres;

23 y vuestros turbantes estarán sobre vuestras cabezas, y vuestros zapatos en vuestros pies; no endecharéis ni lloraréis, sino que os consumiréis a causa de vuestras maldades, y gemiréis unos con otros.

24 Ezequiel, pues, os será por señal; según todas las cosas que él hizo, haréis; al venir esto, entonces sabréis que yo soy el Señor DIOS.

25 Y tú, hijo de hombre, el día que yo quitare de ellos su fortaleza, el gozo de su gloria, el deseo de sus ojos, y el cuidado de sus almas, sus hijos y sus hijas,

26 este día vendrá a ti un escapado para traer las nuevas.

27 En aquel día se abrirá tu boca para hablar con el escapado, y hablarás, y no estarás más mudo; y les serás por señal, y sabrán que yo soy el SEÑOR.

4255. 'For with just my staff I passed over this Jordan, and now I have become two camps' means that from having little He now had much. This is clear from the meaning of 'a staff' as power - a word used in reference to truth, and dealt with in 4013, 4015; from the meaning of 'Jordan' as introduction into cognitions of good and truth, dealt with below; and from the meaning of 'two camps' as goods and truths, as above in 4250 - the two camps referred to here consisting of the people, flocks, herds, and camels, which he split into two groups. From this one may see what these words mean in the proximate sense - that when being introduced into cognitions He had only a small amount of truth but subsequently He had many truths and goods; or what amounts to the same, from having little He now had much. From the explanations given up to now it is evident that the subject in the internal sense has been the way in which the Lord made the Human within Him Divine, doing so step by step in keeping with order. So the subject has been His advance into intelligence and wisdom, at length into Divine intelligence and wisdom. This shows what the phrase 'from having little He now had much' is used to mean.

[2] The reason 'the Jordan' means introduction into cognitions of good and truth is that it was a boundary to the land of Canaan. For all the boundaries of that land meant things that are first and last in the Lord's kingdom, and also those that are first and last in the Church, and so those that are first and last in the celestial and spiritual things which constitute the Lord's kingdom and His Church, see 1585, 1866, 4116, 4240. Therefore, being a boundary, 'the Jordan' meant introduction into cognitions of good and truth, for these come first; but when at length a person becomes in himself a Church or the Lord's kingdom they come to be last.

[3] That 'the Jordan' means things that are first and those that are last may be seen from other places in the Word, as in David,

O my God, my soul bows itself down within me; 1 therefore I remember You from the land of Jordan, and the Hermons from the little mountain. Psalms 42:6.

'Remembering from the land of Jordan' stands for doing so from what is last and so from a position of humbleness. In the same author,

Judah became His sanctuary, Israel His dominions. The sea saw and fled; the Jordan turned about backwards. Psalms 114:2-3, 5.

'Judah' stands for the good of celestial love, and 'Israel' for the good of spiritual love, 3654. 'The sea' stands for cognitions of truth, 28, 'the Jordan' stands for cognitions of good which are said 'to turn about backwards' when the good of love gains dominion, for in that case cognitions are viewed from that good, not the good from those cognitions - in accordance with the things that have often been shown already.

[4] In the Book of Judges,

Gilead dwelling at the crossing of the Jordan; and Dan, why will he fear ships? Judges 5:17.

'Gilead' stands for the sensory good or pleasure by means of which a person is first introduced into the path of his regeneration, 4117, 4124. 'Dwelling at the crossing of the Jordan' stands for the things effecting that introduction, and so things that are first and last in the Church and the Lord's kingdom. These introductory things were also represented by 'the Jordan' when the children of Israel entered the land of Canaan, Joshua 3:14-end; 4:1-end; for 'the land of Canaan' represented the Lord's kingdom, 1413, 1437, 1607, 3038, 3481, 3686, 3705.

And the dividing of the Jordan and their passing through on dry ground meant the removal of evils and falsities and the admission into the Lord's kingdom of those who are governed by goods and truths. Similar in meaning is the dividing of the waters of the Jordan by Elijah when he was carried up into heaven, 2 Kings 2:8, and by Elisha when he entered in place of Elijah into the prophetic role, 2 Kings 2:14.

[5] The cure of Naaman's leprosy, effected by his having washed himself seven times in the Jordan according to Elisha's command, 2 Kings 5:1-14, represented baptism, for baptism means introduction into the Church and into the things that belong to the Church, and so into regeneration and the things that belong to regeneration. Not that anyone is regenerated by baptism; rather it is the sign of it, which he should call to mind. And because the things which constitute the Church are meant by baptism, and baptism is meant by 'the Jordan', as mentioned above, it was the Jordan therefore in which people were baptized by John, Matthew 3:6; Mark 1:5. And the Lord too was willing to be baptized in it by John, Matthew 3:13-17; Mark 1:9.

[6] Because 'the Jordan' means things that are first and last in the Lord's kingdom and in the Church - such as the cognitions of good and truth, since these serve to introduce a person into His kingdom and Church - the Jordan is also for that reason referred to as a boundary of the new earth or holy land, in Ezekiel 47:18. The new earth or holy land means the Lord's kingdom and also the new Church which is the Lord's kingdom on earth, see 1733, 1850, 2117, 2118 (end), 3355 (end).
