Genesis 39

Studie

   

1 At ibinaba si Jose sa Egipto; at binili siya ni Potiphar, puno ni Faraon, na kapitan ng bantay, na lalaking taga Egipto, sa kamay ng mga Ismaelita na nagdala sa kaniya roon.

2 At ang Panginoon ay suma kay Jose, at naging lalaking mapalad; at siya'y nasa bahay ng kaniyang panginoong taga Egipto.

3 At nakita ng kaniyang panginoon, na ang Panginoon ay sumasakaniya, at ang lahat ng kaniyang ginagawa ay pinagpapala ng Panginoon sa kaniyang kamay.

4 At nakasumpong si Jose ng biyaya sa kaniyang paningin, at pinaglingkuran niya siya: at sa kaniya'y ipinamahala niya ang bahay, at ang lahat niyang tinatangkilik ay isinakaniyang kamay.

5 At nangyari, na mula sa panahon na siya'y pamahalain sa kaniyang bahay, at sa lahat ng kaniyang tinatangkilik, ay pinagpala ng Panginoon ang bahay ng taga Egiptong yaon dahil kay Jose; at ang pagpapala ng Panginoon ay sumalahat ng kaniyang tinatangkilik, sa bahay at sa parang.

6 At kaniyang ipinamahala ang lahat niyang tinatangkilik sa kamay ni Jose; at hindi siya nakikialam ng anomang kaniya, liban sa tinapay na kaniyang kinakain. At si Jose ay may magandang pagmumukha at kahalihalina.

7 At nangyari, pagkatapos ng mga bagay na ito, na tinitigan si Jose ng asawa ng kaniyang panginoon at sinabi, Sipingan mo ako.

8 Datapuwa't siya'y tumanggi at sinabi niya sa asawa ng kaniyang panginoon, Narito, ang aking panginoon ay hindi nakikialam sa akin tungkol sa nasa bahay, at lahat ng kaniyang tinatangkilik ay ipinamahala sa aking kamay;

9 Walang sinomang dakila kay sa akin sa bahay na ito; walang ipinagkait sa aking anomang bagay, kung di ikaw lamang, sapagka't ikaw ay kaniyang asawa: paano ngang aking magagawa itong malaking kasamaan, at kasalanan laban sa Dios?

10 At nangyari, na nakikiusap man siya kay Jose araw-araw, ay hindi nakikinig sa kaniya na siya'y sipingan, o pakisamahan.

11 At nangyari nang panahong ito, na siya'y pumasok sa bahay upang gawin niya ang kaniyang gawain at wala sinoman sa mga tao sa bahay doon sa loob.

12 At siya'y pinigilan niya sa kaniyang suot, na sinasabi, Sipingan mo ako: at iniwan niya ang kaniyang suot sa kamay niya at tumakas, at lumabas.

13 At nangyari, na pagkakita niyang iniwan ang kaniyang suot sa kamay niya, at tumakas sa labas,

14 Na siya'y tumawag ng mga tao sa kaniyang bahay, at sinalita sa kanila, na sinasabi, Tingnan ninyo, na dinalhan niya tayo ng isang Hebreo, upang tayo'y tuyain; pinasok niya ako upang ako'y sipingan, at ako'y naghihiyaw ng malakas:

15 At nangyari nang marinig niyang ako'y nagtaas ng tinig at naghihiyaw, na iniwan ang kaniyang suot sa aking siping, at tumakas, at lumabas.

16 At kaniyang iningatan ang suot niya sa kaniyang siping, hanggang sa umuwi ang kaniyang panginoon sa kaniyang bahay.

17 At sinalita niya sa kaniya ng ayon sa mga salitang ito, na sinasabi, Pinasok ako ng aliping Hebreo na iyong dinala sa atin, upang tuyain ako:

18 At nangyari, na sapagka't nagtaas ako ng aking tinig at ako'y naghihiyaw, ay kaniyang iniwan ang suot niya sa aking siping, at tumakas sa labas.

19 At nangyari, na pagkarinig ng kaniyang panginoon ng mga salita na sinalita sa kaniya ng kaniyang asawa, na sinasabi, Ganitong paraan ang ginawa sa akin ng iyong alipin; ay nagalab ang kaniyang galit.

20 At dinala ng kaniyang panginoon si Jose, at inilagay sa bilangguan, sa dakong pinagkukulungan ng mga bilanggo ng hari: at siya'y natira roon sa bilangguan.

21 Datapuwa't ang Panginoon ay suma kay Jose, at iginawad sa kaniya ang awa, at pinagkalooban ng biyaya sa paningin ng katiwala sa bilangguan.

22 At ipinamahala ng katiwala sa bilangguan sa mga kamay ni Jose ang lahat na mga bilanggo na nasa bilangguan; at ang lahat ng ginagawa roon ay siya ang gumagawa.

23 Hindi tinitingnan ng katiwala ng bilangguan ang anomang bagay na nasa kaniyang kamay, sapagka't ang Panginoo'y suma kay Jose; at ang kaniyang ginagawa ay pinagpapala ng Panginoon.

Exploring the Meaning of Genesis 39

Napsal(a) New Christian Bible Study Staff

Here are some excerpts from Swedenborg's "Arcana Coelestia" that help explain the inner meaning of this chapter:

AC 4960. In the internal sense here the subject treated of is the Lord, how He made His internal man Divine. "Jacob" was the external man, as described in the preceding chapters; "Joseph" is the internal man, as described in this and the following chapters.

AC 4961. And because this was done according to Divine order, this order is here described; and also temptation, which is the means of conjunction.

4960. Genesis 39

1. And Joseph was made to go down to Egypt, and Potiphar bought him - Pharaoh's bedchamber servant, the chief of the attendants, an Egyptian man - from the hand of the Ishmaelites who made him go down there.

2. And Jehovah was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his lord the Egyptian.

3. And his lord saw that Jehovah was with him, and everything that he did Jehovah made to prosper in his hand.

4. And Joseph found favour in his eyes, and ministered to him; and he put him in charge over his house, and whatever he had he gave into his hand.

5. And it happened from the time he put him in charge in his house and over all that he had, that Jehovah blessed the Egyptian's house for Joseph's sake; and the blessing of Jehovah was on all that he had in the house and in the field.

6. And he left all that he had in Joseph's hand, and did not concern himself with anything 1 except the bread that he ate. And Joseph was beautiful in form and beautiful in appearance.

7. And it happened after these events, that his lord's wife lifted up her eyes towards Joseph and said, Lie with me.

8. And he refused and said to his lord's wife, Behold, my lord does not concern himself with anything 2 in the house, and all that he has he has given into my hand.

9. He himself is no greater in this house than I am, and he has not held back anything from me except yourself, in that you are his wife. How then shall I do this great evil, and sin against God?

10. And it happened as she spoke to Joseph day after day, that he did not listen to her, to lie with her, to be with her.

11. And it happened on a certain day, that he went to the house to do his work, and none of the men 3 of the house was there in the house.

12. And she took hold of him by his garment, saying, Lie with me. And he left his garment in her hand and fled, and went out of doors.

13. And it happened as she saw that he had left his garment in her hand and had fled out of doors,

14. That she cried out to the men of her house, and said to them - she said, See, he has brought us a Hebrew man to make sport of us. He came to me to lie with me, and I cried out with a loud voice.

15. And it happened as he was hearing [me], that I lifted up my voice and cried out, and he left his garment with me, and fled, and went out of doors.

16. And she kept his garment with her until his lord came to his house.

17. And she spoke to him in 4 these words, saying, The Hebrew slave whom you have brought to us came to me, to make sport of me.

18. And it happened as I lifted up my voice and cried out, that he left his garment with me and fled out of doors.

19. And it happened - as his lord heard his wife's words which she spoke to him, saying, This is what 5 your slave did to me - that his anger flared up.

20. And Joseph's lord took him and committed him to the prison-house, a place where the king's bound ones were bound; and he was there in the prison-house.

21. And Jehovah was with Joseph, and showed mercy to him, and gave him favour in the eyes of the governor 6 of the prison-house.

22. And the governor 6 of the prison-house gave into Joseph's hand all the bound who were in the prison-house; and everything they did there, he was the doer of it. 7

23. The governor of the prison-house oversaw nothing whatever that was in his hand, in that Jehovah was with him; and whatever he did, Jehovah made it prosper.

CONTENTS

The internal sense deals here with the way in which the Lord made His Internal Man Divine. 'Jacob' was the External Man, the subject in preceding chapters, now 'Joseph' is the Internal Man, the subject in the present chapter and those that follow it.
