Exodo 31

Studie

   

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

2 Tingnan mo aking tinawag sa pangalan si Bezaleel na anak ni Uri, na anak ni Hur, sa lipi ni Juda:

3 At aking pinuspos siya ng Espiritu ng Dios, sa karunungan at pagkakilala, at kaalaman, at sa lahat ng sarisaring gawain,

4 Upang kumatha ng mga gawang kaayaaya, upang gumawa sa ginto, at sa pilak, at sa tanso,

5 At upang umukit ng mga batong pangkalupkop, upang gumawa ng mga nililok na kahoy, at upang gumawa sa lahat na sarisaring gawain.

6 At ako, narito, aking inihalal na kasama niya si Aholiab, na anak ni Ahisamac sa lipi ni Dan; at sa puso ng lahat na maalam na puso, ay aking isinilid ang karunungan, upang magawa nila ang lahat ng aking iniutos sa iyo:

7 Ang tabernakulo ng kapisanan at ang kaban ng patotoo, at ang luklukan ng awa na nasa ibabaw niyaon, at ang lahat ng kasangkapan ng Tolda:

8 At ang dulang at ang mga sisidlan niyaon at ang kandelerong dalisay, sangpu ng lahat na mga sisidlan; at ang dambana ng kamangyan;

9 At ang dambana ng handog na susunugin sangpu ng lahat ng mga sisidlan niyaon, at ang hugasan at ang tungtungan niyaon;

10 At ang mga kasuutang mabuting yari, at ang mga banal na kasuutan na pangsuot kay Aarong saserdote, at ang mga kasuutan sa kaniyang mga anak, upang mangasiwa sa katungkulang saserdote;

11 At ang langis na pangpahid, at ang kamangyan na mabangong mga kamangyan na itataan sa dakong banal: ayon sa lahat na iniutos ko sa iyo ay kanilang gagawin.

12 At ang Panginoo'y nagsalita kay Moises, na sinasabi,

13 Salitain mo rin sa mga anak ni Israel, na iyong sabihin, Katotohanang ipangingilin ninyo ang aking mga sabbath; sapagka't isang tanda sa akin at sa inyo sa buong panahon ng inyong mga lahi, upang inyong makilala na ako ang Panginoon na nagpapabanal sa inyo.

14 Inyong ipangingilin ang sabbath nga; sapagka't yao'y pangilin sa inyo: bawa't lumapastangan ay walang pagsalang papatayin: sapagka't sinomang gumawa ng anomang gawa sa araw na yaon, ay ihihiwalay ang taong yaon sa kaniyang bayan.

15 Anim na araw na gagawin ang gawain; datapuwa't ang ikapitong araw ay sabbath na takdang kapahingahan, pangilin sa Panginoon: sinomang gumawa ng anomang gawa sa araw ng sabbath, ay walang pagsalang papatayin.

16 Kaya't ang mga anak ni Israel ay mangingilin ng sabbath, na tutuparin ang sabbath sa buong panahon ng kanilang mga lahi, na pinakapalaging tipan.

17 Ito'y isang tanda sa akin at sa mga anak ni Israel magpakailan man: sapagka't sa anim na araw ay ginawa ng Panginoon ang langit at lupa, at sa ikapitong araw, ay nagpahinga at naginhawahan.

18 At kaniyang ibinigay kay Moises, pagkatapos na makipagsalitaan sa kaniya sa ibabaw ng bundok ng Sinai, ang dalawang tapyas ng patotoo, na mga tapyas na bato, na sinulatan ng daliri ng Dios.

5136. 'Out of the land of the Hebrews' means from the Church; that is to say, evil caused celestial things to be alienated from it. This is clear from the meaning of 'the land of the Hebrews' as the Church, 'the land of the Hebrews' being in this case the land of Canaan, for this was the place from which Joseph was taken away. The reason why in the Word 'the land of Canaan' means the Church is that the Church had existed there since most ancient times, first the Most Ancient Church, which came before the Flood; then the Ancient Church, which came after the Flood; after that the second Ancient Church, which is called the Hebrew Church; and at length the Jewish Church. So that the Jewish Church might be established there Abram was commanded to move from Syria to that land, where he received the promise that the land would be given as an inheritance to his descendants. This explains why in the Word 'land' or 'earth' means the Church, and 'the whole land' - an expression found in various places - the universal Church, and why 'a new heaven and a new earth' means a new Church, internal and external.

[2] The reason the Church existed there continuously since most ancient times was that the member of the Most Ancient Church, who was celestial, was the kind of person who saw within every single object in the world and on earth something representative of the Lord's kingdom. Worldly and earthly objects were the means that enabled him to think about heavenly realities. This was where all the representatives and meaningful signs known subsequently in the Ancient Church had their origin, for these had been gathered together by the people meant by 'Enoch', and preserved for the use of others descended from them, 519, 521, 2896. This was how it came about that each specific place, and also each specific mountain or river in the land of Canaan, where the most ancient people lived, came to be representative, as did all the surrounding kingdoms. Now because the Word could not be written unless representatives and meaningful signs were used, including those connected with places, those consecutive dispensations of the Church were to that end kept in existence in the land of Canaan. But after the Lord's Coming the Church was transferred elsewhere because representatives were now done away with. From all this it is evident that the land of Canaan, called the land of the Hebrews here, means the Church.

[3] But see what has been presented already on these matters - in the following places:

The Most Ancient Church, the one before the Flood, existed in the land of Canaan, 567, 3686, 4447, 4454.

Part of the Ancient Church, the Church after the Flood, existed there, 3686, 4447.

The second Ancient Church, called the Hebrew Church, also existed there, 4516, 4517.

Abram was therefore commanded to go there, and the land was given to his descendants, 3686, 4447.

Consequently the land of Canaan represented the Lord's kingdom, 1607, 3038, 3481, 3705, 4240, 4447.

This explains why in the Word 'the land' means the Church, 566, 662, 1066, 1067, 1262, 1413, 1607, 1733, 1850, 2117, 2118 (end), 3355, 4447, 4535.
