1 Samuel 29

Studie

   

1 Pinisan nga ng mga Filisteo ang lahat nilang hukbo sa Aphec: at ang mga taga Israel ay humantong sa bukal na nasa Jezreel.

2 At ang mga pangulo ng mga Filisteo ay nagdadaan na mga daan daan, at mga libolibo: at si David at ang kaniyang mga tao ay nagdadaan sa mga huli na kasama ni Achis.

3 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng mga prinsipe ng mga Filisteo, Ano ang mga Hebreong ito? At sumagot si Achis sa mga prinsipe ng mga Filisteo, Hindi ba ito ay si David na lingkod ni Saul na hari sa Israel na napasa akin ng mga araw na ito, o ng mga taong ito, at hindi ako nakasumpong ng anomang kakulangan sa kaniya mula nang siya'y lumapit sa akin hanggang sa araw na ito?

4 Nguni't ang mga prinsipe ng mga Filisteo ay nagalit sa kaniya; at sinabi ng mga prinsipe ng mga Filisteo sa kaniya, Pabalikin mo ang taong iyan, upang siya'y bumalik sa kaniyang dako na iyong pinaglagyan sa kaniya, at huwag mong pababain na kasama natin sa pakikipagbaka, baka sa pagbabaka ay maging kaaway natin siya: sapagka't paanong makikipagkasundo ito sa kaniyang panginoon? hindi ba sa pamamagitan ng mga ulo ng mga taong ito?

5 Hindi ba ito ang David na siyang kanilang pinagaawitanan sa mga sayaw, na sinasabi, Pinatay ni Saul ang kaniyang libolibo, At ni David ang kaniyang laksalaksa?

6 Nang magkagayo'y tinawag ni Achis si David, at sinabi sa kaniya, Buhay ang Panginoon, ikaw ay matuwid, at ang iyong paglabas at ang iyong pagpasok na kasama ko sa hukbo ay mabuti sa aking paningin: sapagka't hindi ako nakasumpong ng kasamaan sa iyo mula sa araw ng iyong pagdating sa akin hanggang sa araw na ito: gayon ma'y hindi ka kinalulugdan ng mga pangulo.

7 Kaya't ngayo'y ikaw ay bumalik at yumaong payapa, upang huwag kang kagalitan ng mga pangulo ng mga Filisteo.

8 At sinabi ni David kay Achis, Nguni't anong aking ginawa? at anong iyong nasumpungan sa iyong lingkod habang ako'y nasa sa harap mo hanggang sa araw na ito, upang ako'y huwag yumaon at lumaban sa mga kaaway ng aking panginoon na hari?

9 At sumagot si Achis, at sinabi kay David, Talastas ko na ikaw ay mabuti sa aking paningin, na gaya ng isang anghel ng Dios: gayon ma'y sinabi ng mga prinsipe ng mga Filisteo. Hindi siya aahon na kasama natin sa pakikipagbaka.

10 Kaya't bumangon kang maaga sa kinaumagahan na kasama ng mga lingkod ng iyong panginoon na naparitong kasama mo; at pagbangon ninyong maaga sa kinaumagahan, at pagliliwanag ay yumaon kayo.

11 Sa gayo'y bumangong maaga si David, siya at ang kaniyang mga lalake, upang yumaon sa kinaumagahan, na bumalik sa lupain ng mga Filisteo. At ang mga Filisteo ay umahon sa Jezreel.

9927. 'When he goes into the holy place before Jehovah, and when he comes out' means in every state of good and truth in worship. This is clear from the meaning of 'going into the holy place' and 'going in before Jehovah' as worship, dealt with above in 9903, 9907. The reason why the state of good and truth in worship is what is meant is that everything constituting the worship of the Israelite and Jewish nation was representative of internal worship, and internal worship springs from good and truth, or rather from an affection for good and a belief in truth. The reason why their every state is meant is that it says 'when he goes in' and 'when he comes out', and 'going in and coming out' means all aspects of the state. For actions that involve movement from place to place, such as walking, moving about, or advancing, mean the state of the thoughts and affection belonging to whatever thing they refer to, and so in a general sense they mean the state of life. As regards 'walking', that it has this meaning, see 519, 1794, 3335, 4882, 5493, 5605, 8417, 8420, as likewise do 'advancing' and 'journeying on', 8103, 8181, 8397, 8557; and in the next life movements and advancements from place to place are states, 1273-1277, 1376-1381, 2837, 3356, 9440. From this it is evident that 'going in and coming out' means the whole of a state of life or of whatever thing these words refer to. And because they refer here to worship springing from good and truth, the entire state of good and truth in worship is what 'going in and coming out' means.

[2] The origins of this meaning of 'going in and coming out' lie in representatives in the next life. For they who are there move about, walk, advance, go in and come out, just as in the world. But all these movements take place in accord with the state of the life of their thoughts and affections, see the places referred to above. They are not however immediately aware of the fact that these are the origin of the movements they make, or that those movements are correspondences, and for this reason real appearances. From this it is evident that all forms of movement mean things which constitute states of life. So it is that 'going in and coming out' means the entire state of life, thus the state of whatever thing these words refer to, from beginning to end. This is the source of the customary saying used by the ancients, that they knew someone's going in and coming out, or entering and departing, by which they meant that they knew the entire state of his life. And since this saying traces its origin back, as stated above, to correspondences in the next life, a similar use of the saying occurs in the Word; and where it occurs it has a similar meaning, as in the following places: In the first Book of Samuel,

Achish called David and said to him, You have been upright, and your going out and your coming in with me in the camp has been good in my eyes. For I have not found evil in you. 1 Samuel 29:6.

'Your going out and your coming in has been good in my eyes' stands for the fact that he was well pleased with the entire state of the other's life.

[3] In the second Book of Samuel,

You know Abner, that he has come to persuade you, and in order that he may know your departing and your entering, and that he may know everything that you do. 2 Samuel 3:25.

'Knowing the departure and entrance' stands for knowing all the thoughts and deeds of his life, which is why it also says, 'and that he may know everything that you do'. In the second Book of Kings,

I know your sitting, and your going out, and your coming in, and that you rage 1 against Me. 2 Kings 19:27; Isaiah 37:28.

This refers to Sennacherib, king of Assyria. 'Knowing his going out and his coming in' stands for knowledge of all aspects of what he plans. In David,

Jehovah will guard you from all evil, He will guard your soul. Jehovah will guard your going out and your coming in from now and even for evermore. Psalms 121:7-8.

'Guarding the going out and the coming in' stands for protecting every aspect of life in keeping with a state of good and truth.

[4] In Moses,

Let Jehovah God of the spirits of all flesh set 2 a man over the congregation, who may go out before them, and who may come in before them, and who may lead them out, and who may bring them in, that the congregation of Jehovah may not be like a flock which have no shepherd. Numbers 27:16-17.

'Who may go out before them, and who may come in before them' stands for one who may lead them, and so whom they may look to and follow in every state of life. In John,

He who does not go through the door into the sheepfold but climbs in by another way, that man is a thief and a robber. But he who goes in through the door is the shepherd of the sheep. I am the door; if anyone goes in through Me he will be saved, and will go in and come out and find pasture. John 10:1-2, 9.

'Going in' here means doing so into heaven, thus into the good of love and faith since that good composes heaven. 'Going in and coming out' consequently means being led by the Lord in every state of life, and therefore thinking and willing good in freedom, that is, in love and faith received from the Lord since love and faith constitute freedom.

[5] In Luke,

Jesus sent the twelve disciples to preach the kingdom of God, and said to them, Whatever house you go into, there stay, and from there come out. Luke 9:4.

'Going into a house, staying there, and from there coming out' stands for the enjoyment of heavenly fellowship with those who receive the Lord in faith and love; for in heaven those who live together in the same community are also in the same house, which they go into and come out from, since they are governed by a like good. But those governed by an unlike good cannot do so; or if they do get in, they do not go in through the doors but by some other way. Anyone who does not know that these kinds of things are meant cannot know what is implied by the command that whatever house they went into, there they were to stay and from there come out.

[6] In Ezekiel,

When the prince goes in he shall go in by way of the porch of the gate, and come out by the same way. When the people of the land go in before Jehovah at the appointed feasts, anyone going in by way of the north gate to worship shall come out by way of the south gate; and anyone going in by way of the south gate shall come out by way of the north gate. He shall not return by way of the gate through which he had gone in, but shall come out straight before him. The prince however shall be in their midst; when they go in he shall go in, and when they come out he shall come out. Ezekiel 46:8-10.

These verses refer in the internal sense to a new heaven and a new Church, 'the prince' meaning the truth of faith springing from the good of love. In what manner that truth enters in with angels in heaven and with people of the Church on earth, and how after this it develops when it passes by an external way to more internal things, and when it passes by an internal way to more external ones, is described in those verses by the going in and coming out of the prince and the people of the land. 'The south' is the state of the truth of faith in the internal man, and 'the north' the state of it in the external man. 'Going in and coming out' is the state of life so far as good and truth, thus so far as worship, are concerned.

[7] From all this it may be recognized quite plainly that 'going in' and 'coming out' are descriptive of things such as belong to states of life conditioned by good and truth. For apart from this what real meaning could the prescription have, that the prince should go in by the one or the other gate, and the people of the land likewise? 'The house' here, or the temple, which they went into and came out from, means heaven and the Church, see 3720; 'the prince' the truth of faith, 5044; 'the people of the land' those who are in heaven or who belong to the Church, 2928; 'the way' that which leads to truth, 627, 2333; 'the gate' doctrinal teachings, 2851, 3187; 'the south' where truth dwells in light, 9642, thus truth in the internal man; and 'the north' where truth dwells in obscurity, 3708, thus truth in the external man.

Genesis 47

Studie

   

1 Then Joseph went in and told Pharaoh, and said, "My father and my brothers, with their flocks, their herds, and all that they own, have come out of the land of Canaan; and behold, they are in the land of Goshen."

2 From among his brothers he took five men, and presented them to Pharaoh.

3 Pharaoh said to his brothers, "What is your occupation?" They said to Pharaoh, "Your servants are shepherds, both we, and our fathers."

4 They said to Pharaoh, "We have come to live as foreigners in the land, for there is no pasture for your servants' flocks. For the famine is severe in the land of Canaan. Now therefore, please let your servants dwell in the land of Goshen."

5 Pharaoh spoke to Joseph, saying, "Your father and your brothers have come to you.

6 The land of Egypt is before you. Make your father and your brothers dwell in the best of the land. Let them dwell in the land of Goshen. If you know any able men among them, then put them in charge of my livestock."

7 Joseph brought in Jacob, his father, and set him before Pharaoh, and Jacob blessed Pharaoh.

8 Pharaoh said to Jacob, "How many are the days of the years of your life?"

9 Jacob said to Pharaoh, "The days of the years of my pilgrimage are one hundred thirty years. Few and evil have been the days of the years of my life, and they have not attained to the days of the years of the life of my fathers in the days of their pilgrimage."

10 Jacob blessed Pharaoh, and went out from the presence of Pharaoh.

11 Joseph placed his father and his brothers, and gave them a possession in the land of Egypt, in the best of the land, in the land of Rameses, as Pharaoh had commanded.

12 Joseph nourished his father, his brothers, and all of his father's household, with bread, according to their families.

13 There was no bread in all the land; for the famine was very severe, so that the land of Egypt and the land of Canaan fainted by reason of the famine.

14 Joseph gathered up all the money that was found in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, for the grain which they bought: and Joseph brought the money into Pharaoh's house.

15 When the money was all spent in the land of Egypt, and in the land of Canaan, all the Egyptians came to Joseph, and said, "Give us bread, for why should we die in your presence? For our money fails."

16 Joseph said, "Give me your livestock; and I will Give you food for your livestock, if your money is gone."

17 They brought their livestock to Joseph, and Joseph gave them bread in exchange for the horses, and for the flocks, and for the herds, and for the donkeys: and he fed them with bread in exchange for all their livestock for that year.

18 When that year was ended, they came to him the second year, and said to him, "We will not hide from my lord how our money is all spent, and the herds of livestock are my lord's. There is nothing left in the sight of my lord, but our bodies, and our lands.

19 Why should we die before your eyes, both we and our land? Buy us and our land for bread, and we and our land will be servants to Pharaoh. Give us seed, that we may live, and not die, and that the land won't be desolate."

20 So Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh, for every man of the Egyptians sold his field, because the famine was severe on them, and the land became Pharaoh's.

21 As for the people, he moved them to the cities from one end of the border of Egypt even to the other end of it.

22 Only he didn't buy the land of the priests, for the priests had a portion from Pharaoh, and ate their portion which Pharaoh gave them. That is why they didn't sell their land.

23 Then Joseph said to the people, "Behold, I have bought you and your land today for Pharaoh. Behold, here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land.

24 It will happen at the harvests, that you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four parts will be your own, for seed of the field, for your food, for them of your households, and for food for your little ones."

25 They said, "You have saved our lives! Let us find favor in the sight of my lord, and we will be Pharaoh's servants."

26 Joseph made it a statute concerning the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth. Only the land of the priests alone didn't become Pharaoh's.

27 Israel lived in the land of Egypt, in the land of Goshen; and they got themselves possessions therein, and were fruitful, and multiplied exceedingly.

28 Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years. So the days of Jacob, the years of his life, were one hundred forty-seven years.

29 The time drew near that Israel must die, and he called his son Joseph, and said to him, "If now I have found favor in your sight, please put your hand under my thigh, and deal kindly and truly with me. Please don't bury me in Egypt,

30 but when I sleep with my fathers, you shall carry me out of Egypt, and bury me in their burying place." He said, "I will do as you have said."

31 He said, "Swear to me," and he swore to him. Israel bowed himself on the bed's head.
