Exodo 13

Studie

   

1 At ang Panginoon ay nagsalita kay Moises, na sinasabi,

2 Pakabanalin mo sa akin ang lahat ng mga panganay, anomang nagbubukas ng bahay-bata sa mga anak ni Israel: maging sa tao at maging sa hayop ay akin.

3 At sinabi ni Moises sa bayan, Alalahanin ninyo ang araw na ito na inialis ninyo sa Egipto, sa bahay ng pagkaalipin; sapagka't sa pamamagitan ng lakas ng kamay ay hinango kayo ng Panginoon sa dakong ito, wala sinomang kakain ng tinapay na may lebadura.

4 Sa araw na ito ay umaalis kayo ng buwan ng Abib.

5 At mangyayari, na pagkadala sa iyo ng Panginoon sa lupain ng Cananeo, at ng Hetheo, at ng Amorrheo, at ng Hebreo, at ng Jebuseo, na kaniyang isinumpa sa iyong mga magulang, na ibibigay sa iyo, na lupang binubukalan ng gatas at pulot ay iyong ipangingilin ang paglilingkod na ito sa buwang ito.

6 Pitong araw na kakain ka ng tinapay na walang lebadura, at sa ikapitong araw ay magiging isang kapistahan sa Panginoon.

7 Tinapay na walang lebadura ang kakanin sa loob ng pitong araw, at huwag makakakita sa iyo, ng tinapay na may lebadura, ni makakakita ng lebadura sa iyo, sa lahat ng iyong mga hangganan.

8 At sasaysayin mo sa iyong anak sa araw na yaon, na iyong sasabihin: Dahil sa ginawa ng Panginoon sa akin nang ako'y umalis sa Egipto.

9 At sa iyo'y magiging pinakatanda sa ibabaw ng iyong kamay, at pinakaalaala sa pagitan ng iyong mga mata, upang ang kautusan ng Panginoon ay sumaiyong bibig: sapagka't sa pamamagitan ng malakas na kamay, ay inalis ka ng Panginoon sa Egipto.

10 Isasagawa mo nga ang palatuntunang ito sa kapanahunan nito taon taon.

11 At mangyayari, pagkadala sa iyo ng Panginoon sa lupain ng Cananeo, gaya ng isinumpa sa iyo at sa iyong mga magulang, at pagkabigay niyaon sa iyo,

12 Ay ihihiwalay mo para sa Panginoon yaong lahat na nagbubukas ng bahay-bata, at bawa't panganay na mayroon ka na mula sa hayop; ang mga lalake, ay sa Panginoon.

13 At bawa't panganay sa asno ay tutubusin mo ng isang kordero; at kung hindi mo tutubusin, ay iyo ngang babaliin ang kaniyang leeg: at lahat ng mga panganay na lalake sa iyong mga anak ay iyong tutubusin.

14 At mangyayari, na pagtatanong sa iyo ng iyong anak sa panahong darating, na sasabihin, Ano ito? na iyong sasabihin sa kaniya: Sa pamamagitan ng lakas ng kamay ay inilabas tayo ng Panginoon sa Egipto, sa bahay ng pagkaalipin.

15 At nangyari, nang magmatigas si Faraon na hindi kami tulutang yumaon, ay pinatay ng Panginoon ang lahat ng mga panganay sa lupain ng Egipto, ang panganay ng tao at gayon din ang panganay ng hayop: kaya't aking inihahain sa Panginoon ang lahat ng nagbubukas ng bahay-bata na mga lalake; nguni't lahat ng panganay ng aking anak ay aking tinutubos.

16 At magiging pinakatanda sa iyong kamay, at pinakaalaala sa pagitan ng iyong mga mata: sapagka't sa pamamagitan ng lakas ng kamay ay inilabas tayo ng Panginoon sa Egipto.

17 At nangyari, nang tulutan ni Faraon na ang bayan ay yumaon, na hindi sila pinatnubayan ng Dios sa daang patungo sa lupain ng mga Filisteo, bagaman malapit; sapagka't sinabi ng Dios, Baka sakaling ang bayan ay magsisi pagkakita ng pagbabaka, at magsipagbalik sa Egipto:

18 Kundi pinatnubayan ng Dios ang bayan sa palibot, sa daang patungo sa ilang sa tabi ng Dagat na Mapula: at ang mga anak ni Israel ay sumampang nangakasakbat mula sa lupain ng Egipto.

19 At dinala ni Moises ang mga buto ni Jose: sapagka't kaniyang ipinanumpang mahigpit sa mga anak ni Israel, na sinasabi, Tunay na dadalawin kayo ng Dios; at inyong isasampa ang aking mga buto mula rito na kasama ninyo.

20 At sila'y naglakbay mula sa Succoth, at humantong sa Etham, sa hangganan ng ilang.

21 At ang Panginoon ay nangunguna sa kanila sa araw, sa isang haliging ulap, upang patnubayan sila sa daan; at sa gabi, ay sa isang haliging apoy, upang tanglawan sila; upang sila'y makapaglakad sa araw at sa gabi.

22 Ang haliging ulap sa araw at ang haliging apoy sa gabi ay hindi humihiwalay sa harapan ng bayan.

7836. 'By the number of the souls, [each of them] according to the mouth of his eating, you shall make your count for the member of the flock' means making the good sufficient for innocence by filling it out with truths of good in the exact quantity needed for assimilating innocence. This is clear from the meaning of 'the number of the souls' as the exact quantity of the truths of good, since 'the number' in the Word has reference to truth, and 'a soul' to spiritual good; from the meaning of 'according to the mouth of his eating' as the amount needed for assimilating it, 'eating' meaning assimilating or making one's own, see 3168, 3517, 3596, 3832; and from the meaning of 'the member of the flock' as innocence, dealt with above in 7832. Making the good sufficient for innocence by filling it out is meant by the command to take from the house of an immediate neighbour the number that would be enough for the member of the flock, 'the house' meaning good, see above in 7873. When the expression 'the truth of good' is used here truth springing from good is meant. For when those who belong to the spiritual Church are being regenerated they are brought to the good of charity by means of the truth of faith; but once they have been brought to the good of charity, the truths born from it subsequently are called the truths of good.

[2] But how to understand these matters contained in this verse no one can possibly know unless he knows how the communities in heaven exist in relation to one another; for those communities were represented by the ways in which the children of Israel lived in association with one another according to tribes, families, and households. The communities of heaven are interrelated in a similar way, as follows: Heaven as a whole is one community, which the Lord governs as a single human being. The general communities there are the same in number as the members and various organs a person has, while the specific communities are the same in number as the component parts of each organ or member. And the individual communities are just so many as the smaller parts constituting larger ones. The truth of this is evident from the correspondences of the human being and of his members and various organs with the Grand Man, that is, with heaven, which have been described from experience at the ends of quite a number of chapters. From all this one may see what heaven is like so far as its organization into separate communities is concerned.

[3] But as regards what each community individually is like, it consists of a large number of angels who accord with one another in their types of good. The types of good are varying, for each one's good is peculiar to himself; yet those varying types of good that are in accord with one another are organized by the Lord into the kind of form in which they stand together as a single body of good. Such communities were represented by the fathers' houses among the children of Israel. This is the reason why the children of Israel were divided not only into tribes but also into families and households. And it is also why, when people are mentioned by name [in the Word], the names of their fathers are mentioned in order, right back to the tribe they belong to. It says, for example, of Samuel's father in 1 Samuel 1:11 that he was from Mount Ephraim, and that his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph; and 1 Samuel 9:1 states that Saul's father was from Benjamin, and that his name was Kish, the son of Abiel, the son of Zeror, the son of Bechorath, the son of Aphiah, the son of a Jeminite man. 1 Similar details concerning very many other fathers are given. When such were mentioned it was to the end that heaven might know the particular nature of the kind of good represented by that father, as it derived in consecutive degrees from the first.

[4] In heaven furthermore, if a community is not complete as it ought to be, then new members are taken from elsewhere, from some neighbouring community, just the number that will complete the form of that good. As many are taken as are needed in each state and in the changes it undergoes; for the form of good varies as the state changes. It should nevertheless be recognized that in the third or inmost heaven - which is immediately above the heaven where those who are spiritual are, since these constitute the middle or second heaven - innocence reigns. For the Lord, who is perfect innocence, flows directly into that heaven.

[5] But in the second heaven, where those who are spiritual are, the Lord flows in with innocence indirectly, that is to say, by way of the third heaven. This inflow is the means by which the communities in the second heaven are organized or arranged into order in respect of their types of good. Therefore the inflow of innocence is what leads to changes in the states of good and to consequent variations of the patterns linking communities to one another there. From this it becomes clear how one ought to understand the contents of this verse in the internal sense, namely as follows: If someone's individual type of good is insufficient for innocence, it must be joined to the nearest good of truth, in order to make the good sufficient for the innocence by filling it out with truths of good in the exact quantity needed for assimilating innocence.
