Génesis 46

Studie

   

1 Salió Israel con todo lo que tenía, y vino a Beerseba, y ofreció sacrificios al Dios de su padre Isaac.

2 Y habló Dios a Israel en visiones de noche, y dijo: Jacob, Jacob. Y él respondió: Heme aquí.

3 Y dijo: Yo soy el Dios, el Dios de tu padre; no temas de descender a Egipto, porque yo te pondré allí en gran gente.

4 Yo descenderé contigo a Egipto, y yo también te haré volver; y José pondrá su mano sobre tus ojos.

5 Y se levantó Jacob de Beerseba; y tomaron los hijos de Israel a su padre Jacob, y a sus niños, y a sus mujeres, en los carros que el Faraón había enviado para llevarlo.

6 Y tomaron sus ganados, y su hacienda que habían adquirido en la tierra de Canaán, y vinieron a Egipto, Jacob, y toda su simiente consigo;

7 sus hijos, y los hijos de sus hijos consigo; sus hijas, y las hijas de sus hijos, y a toda su simiente trajo consigo a Egipto.

8 Y estos son los nombres de los hijos de Israel, que entraron en Egipto: Jacob y sus hijos; Rubén, el primogénito de Jacob.

9 Y los hijos de Rubén: Hanoc, y Falú, y Hezrón, y Carmi.

10 Y los hijos de Simeón: Jemuel, y Jamín, y Ohad, y Jaquin, y Zohar, y Saúl, hijo de la cananea.

11 Y los hijos de Leví: Gersón, Coat, y Merari.

12 Y los hijos de Judá: Er, y Onán, y Sela, y Fares, y Zara: mas Er y Onán, murieron en la tierra de Canaán. Y los hijos de Fares fueron Hezrón y Hamul.

13 Y los hijos de Isacar: Tola, y Fúa, y Job, y Simrón.

14 Y los hijos de Zabulón: Sered y Elón, y Jahleel.

15 Estos fueron los hijos de Lea, los que dio a luz a Jacob en Padan-aram, y además su hija Dina; treinta y tres las almas todas de sus hijos e hijas.

16 Y los hijos de Gad: Zifión, y Hagui, y Ezbón, y Suni, y Eri, y Arodi, y Areli.

17 Y los hijos de Aser: Imna, e Isúa, e Isúi y Bería, y Sera, hermana de ellos. Los hijos de Bería: Heber, y Malquiel.

18 Estos fueron los hijos de Zilpa, la que Labán dio a su hija Lea, y dio a luz éstos a Jacob; dieciséis almas.

19 Y los hijos de Raquel, mujer de Jacob: José y Benjamín.

20 Y nacieron a José en la tierra de Egipto Manasés y Efraín, los que le dio a luz Asenat, hija de Potifera, sacerdote de On.

21 Y los hijos de Benjamín fueron Bela, y Bequer y Asbel, y Gera, y Naamán, y Ehi, y Ros y Mupim, y Hupim, y Ard.

22 Estos fueron los hijos de Raquel, que nacieron a Jacob; en todas, catorce almas.

23 Y los hijos de Dan: Husim.

24 Y los hijos de Neftalí: Jahzeel, y Guni, y Jezer, y Silem.

25 Estos fueron los hijos de Bilha, la que dio Labán a Raquel su hija, y dio a luz éstos a Jacob; por todas siete almas.

26 Todas las personas que vinieron con Jacob a Egipto, procedente de sus lomos, sin las mujeres de los hijos de Jacob, todas las personas fueron sesenta y seis.

27 Y los hijos de José, que le nacieron en Egipto, dos personas. Todas las almas de la casa de Jacob, que entraron en Egipto, fueron setenta.

28 Y envió a Judá delante de sí a José, para que le viniese a ver a Gosén; y llegaron a la tierra de Gosén.

29 Y José unció su carro y vino a recibir a Israel su padre a Gosén; y se manifestó a él, y se echó sobre su cuello, y lloró sobre su cuello bastante.

30 Entonces Israel dijo a José: Muera yo ahora, ya que he visto tu rostro, pues aún vives.

31 Y José dijo a sus hermanos, y a la casa de su padre: Subiré y haré saber al Faraón, y le diré: Mis hermanos y la casa de mi padre, que estaban en la tierra de Canaán, han venido a mí;

32 y los hombres son pastores de ovejas, porque son hombres ganaderos; y han traído sus ovejas y sus vacas, y todo lo que tenían.

33 Y cuando Faraón os llamare y dijere: ¿cuál es vuestro oficio?

34 Entonces diréis: Hombres de ganadería han sido tus siervos desde nuestra juventud hasta ahora, nosotros y nuestros padres; a fin de que moréis en la tierra de Gosén, porque los egipcios abominan todo pastor de ovejas.

6025. The further explication of these words will be omitted, because they are mere names. What they signify may be seen from the general explication given just above (n. 6024). And what the sons of Jacob themselves signify may be seen in the explication where their birth is treated of. This is worthy of note: that no son was born to the sons of Jacob in Egypt, whither they came, although they were still young; but their sons were all born in the land of Canaan, while they themselves were born in Paddan-aram, except Benjamin. This was of the Lord’s special Divine providence, in order that the things of the church might be represented by them from their very birth. The sons of Jacob being born in Paddan-aram represented that the man of the church must be born anew or regenerated by means of the knowledges of good and truth; for “Paddan-aram” signifies the knowledges of good and truth (n. 3664, 3680, 4107), and their birth represented the new birth through faith and charity (n. 4668, 5160, 5598), thus at first through the knowledges of these. But that their sons were all born in the land of Canaan represented that from thence are such things as are of the church, for the “land of Canaan” denotes the church (n. 3686, 3705, 4447, 4454, 4516, 5136, 5757). But that to Joseph were born sons in Egypt, was in order that there might be represented the dominion of the internal man in the external, especially the dominion of the celestial spiritual in the natural, “Manasseh” being the will, and “Ephraim” the intellectual, of the church, in the natural.

Genesis 46

Studie

   

1 Israel traveled with all that he had, and came to Beersheba, and offered sacrifices to the God of his father, Isaac.

2 God spoke to Israel in the visions of the night, and said, "Jacob, Jacob!" He said, "Here I am."

3 He said, "I am God, the God of your father. Don't be afraid to go down into Egypt, for there I will make of you a great nation.

4 I will go down with you into Egypt. I will also surely bring you up again. Joseph will close your eyes."

5 Jacob rose up from Beersheba, and the sons of Israel carried Jacob, their father, their little ones, and their wives, in the wagons which Pharaoh had sent to carry him.

6 They took their livestock, and their goods, which they had gotten in the land of Canaan, and came into Egypt--Jacob, and all his seed with him,

7 his sons, and his sons' sons with him, his daughters, and his sons' daughters, and he brought all his seed with him into Egypt.

8 These are the names of the children of Israel, who came into Egypt, Jacob and his sons: Reuben, Jacob's firstborn.

9 The sons of Reuben: Hanoch, Pallu, Hezron, and Carmi.

10 The sons of Simeon: Jemuel, Jamin, Ohad, Jachin, Zohar, and Shaul the son of a Canaanite woman.

20 To Joseph in the land of Egypt were born Manasseh and Ephraim, whom Asenath, the daughter of Potiphera, priest of On, bore to him.

26 All the souls who came with Jacob into Egypt, who were his direct descendants, besides Jacob's sons' wives, all the souls were sixty-six.

27 The sons of Joseph, who were born to him in Egypt, were two souls. All the souls of the house of Jacob, who came into Egypt, were seventy.

28 He sent Judah before him to Joseph, to show the way before him to Goshen, and they came into the land of Goshen.

29 Joseph prepared his chariot, and went up to meet Israel, his father, in Goshen. He presented himself to him, and fell on his neck, and wept on his neck a good while.

30 Israel said to Joseph, "Now let me die, since I have seen your face, that you are still alive."

31 Joseph said to his brothers, and to his father's house, "I will go up, and speak with Pharaoh, and will tell him, 'My brothers, and my father's house, who were in the land of Canaan, have come to me.

32 These men are shepherds, for they have been keepers of livestock, and they have brought their flocks, and their herds, and all that they have.'

33 It will happen, when Pharaoh summons you, and will say, 'What is your occupation?'

34 that you shall say, 'Your servants have been keepers of livestock from our youth even until now, both we, and our fathers:' that you may dwell in the land of Goshen; for every shepherd is an abomination to the Egyptians."
