Ezekiel 47

Lernen

   

1 At ibinalik niya ako sa pintuan ng bahay; at, narito, ang tubig ay lumalabas sa ilalim ng pasukan sa bahay sa dakong silanganan (sapagka't ang harapan ng bahay ay sa dakong silanganan); at ang tubig ay umaagos sa ilalim, mula sa dakong kanan ng bahay, sa timugan ng dambana.

2 Nang magkagayo'y inilabas niya ako sa daan ng pintuang-daang hilagaan, at pinatnubayan niya ako sa palibot ng daan sa labas, sa lalong labas ng pintuang-daan, sa daan ng pintuang-daan na nakaharap sa dakong silanganan; at, narito, doo'y lumalabas ang tubig sa dakong kanan.

3 Nang ang lalake ay lumabas sa dakong silanganan na may pising panukat sa kaniyang kamay, siya'y sumukat ng isang libong siko, at pinaraan niya ako sa tubig, sa tubig na hanggang bukongbukong.

4 Muling sumukat siya ng isang libo, at pinaraan niya ako sa tubig, sa tubig na hanggang mga tuhod. Muli siyang sumukat ng isang libo, at pinaraan niya ako sa tubig, sa tubig na hanggang sa mga balakang.

5 Pagkatapos ay sumukat siya ng isang libo; at isang ilog na hindi ko naraanan; sapagka't ang tubig ay sumasampa, tubig upang languyan, ilog na hindi mararaanan.

6 At sinabi niya sa akin, Anak ng tao, nakita mo baga ito? Nang magkagayo'y dinala niya ako, at pinabalik niya ako sa pangpang ng ilog.

7 Nang ako nga'y makabalik, narito, sa pangpang ng ilog, ay may totoong maraming puno ng kahoy sa magkabilang dako.

8 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi niya sa akin, Ang tubig na ito ay lumalabas sa dakong silanganang lupain, at bababa sa Araba; at huhugos sa dagat; sa dagat ay huhugos ang tubig na pinalabas; at ang tubig ay mapagagaling.

9 At mangyayari, na bawa't likhang may buhay na dumadami, saan mang dako umaagos ang tubig, ay mabubuhay; at magkakaroon ng totoong napakaraming isda; sapagka't ang tubig na ito ay dumarating diyan at ang tubig ng dagat ay mapagagaling, at bawa't may buhay ay mabubuhay saan man dumating ang ilog.

10 At mangyayari, na ang mga mangingisda ay magsisitayo sa tabi niyaon: mula sa En-gedi hanggang sa En-eglaim ay magiging dako na ladlaran ng mga lambat; ang mga isda ng mga yaon ay magiging ayon sa pagkakaisda ng mga yaon, gaya ng isda sa malaking dagat, na totoong marami.

11 Nguni't ang kaniyang mga dakong maburak, at ang mga lumbak niyaon, ay hindi mapapagaling; magiging asinan nga.

12 At sa pangpang ng ilog sa tabi niyaon, sa dakong ito at sa dakong yaon, tutubo ang sarisaring punong kahoy na pinakapagkain, na ang dahon ay hindi matutuyo, ni magkukulang man ang bunga niyaon: magbubunga ng bago buwan-buwan, sapagka't ang tubig niyaon ay lumalabas sa santuario; at ang bunga niyaon ay magiging pagkain at ang dahon niyaon ay pangpagaling.

13 Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Ito ang magiging hangganan, na inyong pagbabahagihan ng lupain na pinakamana ayon sa labing dalawang lipi ng Israel: ang Jose ay magkakaroon ng dalawang bahagi.

14 At inyong mamanahin, ng isa na gaya ng iba; sapagka't aking isinumpa na ibigay ito sa inyong mga magulang: at ang lupaing ito ay mahuhulog sa inyo na pinakamana.

15 At ito ang magiging hangganan ng lupain: Sa dakong hilagaan, mula sa malaking dagat, sa daang Hethlon, hanggang sa pasukan sa Sedad;

16 Hamath, Berotha, Sibrahim, na nasa pagitan ng hangganan ng Damasco at ng hangganan ng Hamath; Haser-hatticon na nasa tabi ng hangganan ng Hauran.

17 At ang hangganang mula sa dagat ay magiging ang Hazar-enon sa hangganan ng Damasco, at nasa hilagaan na dakong hilagaan ang hangganan ng Hamath. Ito ang dakong hilagaan.

18 At ang dakong silanganan, ang pagitan ng Hauran at ng Damasco at ng Galaad, at ang lupain ng Israel, ay siyang magiging Jordan; mula sa hilagaang hangganan hanggang sa silanganang dagat ay inyong susukatin. Ito ang dakong silanganan.

19 At ang timugang dako na gawing timugan ay magiging mula sa Tamar hanggang sa tubig ng Meribot-cades, sa batis ng Egipto, hanggang sa malaking dagat. Ito ang timugang dako na gawing timugan.

20 At ang dakong kalunuran ay magiging ang malaking dagat, mula sa hangganang timugan hanggang sa tapat ng pasukan sa Hamath. Ito ang dakong kalunuran.

21 Gayon ninyo hahatiin ang lupaing ito sa inyo ayon sa mga lipi ng Israel.

22 At mangyayari na inyong hahatiin sa sapalaran na pinakamana sa inyo at sa mga taga ibang lupa na makikipamayan sa gitna ninyo, na magkakaanak sa gitna ninyo; at sila'y magiging sa inyo'y gaya ng ipinanganak sa gitna ng mga anak ni Israel; sila'y magkakaroon ng mana na kasama ninyo sa gitna ng mga lipi ng Israel.

23 At mangyayari, na kung saang lipi nakipamayan ang taga ibang lupa, doon ninyo bibigyan siya ng mana, sabi ng Panginoong Dios.

40. 'Creeping things which the waters bring forth' means facts which belong to the external man, while 'birds' generally means rational concepts and also intellectual concepts, of which the latter belong to the internal man. That creeping things from the waters, or fish, mean facts is clear in Isaiah,

I came, and there was no man. By My rebuke I will dry up the sea, I will make the rivers a desert. Their fish will stink because there is no water and will die of thirst. I will clothe the heavens with darkness. Isaiah 50:2-3.

[2] This is plainer still in Ezekiel where the Lord describes the new temple, or new Church in general, and the member of the Church, or person who has been regenerated, for every regenerate person is a temple of the Lord,

The Lord Jehovih 1 said to me, Those waters which will go out to the boundary eastwards will come towards the sea, having been directed into the sea, and the waters will be fresh. And it will be that every living creature which swarms will live, wherever the water of the rivers reaches, and there will be very many fish, for these waters are going there and will become fresh; and everything will live where the river goes. And it will be that fishermen from En-gedi to En-eglaim will stand beside it, with nets spread out. Its fish according to their kinds will be very many, like the fish of the great sea. Ezekiel 47:8-10.

'Fishermen from En-gedi to En-eglaim with their nets stretched out' means people who are to teach the natural man about the truths of faith.

[3] In the Prophets 'birds' invariably means rational concepts and intellectual concepts, as in Isaiah,

Calling a bird of prey from the east, a man of My counsel from a distant land. Isaiah 46:11.

In Jeremiah,

I looked, and behold there was no man, and all the birds of the air 2 had fled. Jeremiah 4:25.

In Ezekiel,

I will plant the sprig of a lofty cedar, and it will bring forth a branch, and bear fruit, and it will become a noble cedar, and under it will dwell every bird of every sort, 3 in the shade of its branches they will dwell. Ezekiel 17:23.

And in Hosea, when the subject is a new Church, or regenerate person,

And I will make for them a covenant on that day, with the wild animals of the field, and with the birds of the air, 2 and with things moving on the ground. Hosea 2:18.

Anyone may see that because the Lord 'is making a new covenant' with them, 'wild animal' is not used to mean a wild animal, nor 'bird' to mean a bird.

1. The Latin has Jehovah; for the form Jehovih see 1793

2. literally, bird of the heavens (or the skies)

3. literally, of every wing

Genesis 1

Lernen

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.

3 God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.

5 God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." There was evening and there was morning, one day.

6 God said, "Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."

7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.

8 God called the expanse "sky." There was evening and there was morning, a second day.

9 God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear;" and it was so.

10 God called the dry land "earth," and the gathering together of the waters he called "seas." God saw that it was good.

11 God said, "Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with its seed in it, on the earth;" and it was so.

12 The earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with its seed in it, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.

13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.

14 God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;

15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of sky to give light on the earth;" and it was so.

16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.

17 God set them in the expanse of sky to give light to the earth,

18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.

19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

20 God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of sky."

21 God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good.

22 God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."

23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.

24 God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, livestock, creeping things, and animals of the earth after their kind;" and it was so.

25 God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind. God saw that it was good.

26 God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

27 God created man in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.

28 God blessed them. God said to them, "Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

29 God said, "Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.

30 To every animal of the earth, and to every bird of the sky, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food;" and it was so.

31 God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
