Genesis 15

1 Na deze dingen geschiedde het woord des HEEREN tot Abram in een gezicht, zeggende: Vrees niet, Abram! Ik ben u een Schild, uw Loon zeer groot.

2 Toen zeide Abram: Heere, Heere! wat zult Gij mij geven, daar ik zonder kinderen heenga en de bezorger van mijn huis is deze Damaskener Eliezer?

3 Voorts zeide Abram: Zie, mij hebt Gij geen zaad gegeven, en zie, de zoon van mijn huis zal mijn erfgenaam zijn!

4 En ziet, het woord des HEEREN was tot hem, zeggende: Deze zal uw erfgenaam niet zijn; maar die uit uw lijf voortkomen zal, die zal uw erfgenaam zijn.

5 Toen leidde Hij hem uit naar buiten, en zeide: Zie nu op naar den hemel, en tel de sterren, indien gij ze tellen kunt; en Hij zeide tot hem: Zo zal uw zaad zijn!

6 En hij geloofde in den HEERE; en Hij rekende het hem tot gerechtigheid.

7 Voorts zeide Hij tot hem: Ik ben de HEERE, Die u uitgeleid heb uit Ur der Chaldeen, om u dit land te geven, om dat erfelijk te bezitten.

8 En hij zeide: Heere, Heere! waarbij zal ik weten, dat ik het erfelijk bezitten zal?

9 En Hij zeide tot hem: Neem Mij een driejarige vaars, en een driejarige geit, en een driejarige ram, en een tortelduif, en een jonge duif.

10 En hij bracht Hem deze alle, en hij deelde ze middendoor, en hij legde elks deel tegen het andere over; maar het gevogelte deelde hij niet.

11 En het wild gevogelte kwam neder op het aas; maar Abram joeg het weg.

12 En het geschiedde, als de zon was aan het ondergaan, zo viel een diepe slaap op Abram; en ziet, een schrik, en grote duisternis viel op hem.

13 Toen zeide Hij tot Abram: Weet voorzeker, dat uw zaad vreemd zal zijn in een land, dat het hunne niet is, en zij zullen hen dienen, en zij zullen hen verdrukken vierhonderd jaren.

14 Doch Ik zal het volk ook rechten, hetwelk zij zullen dienen; en daarna zullen zij uittrekken met grote have.

15 En gij zult tot uw vaderen gaan met vrede; gij zult in goeden ouderdom begraven worden.

16 En het vierde geslacht zal herwaarts wederkeren; want de ongerechtigheid der Amorieten is tot nog toe niet volkomen.

17 En het geschiedde, dat de zon onderging en het duister werd, en ziet, daar was een rokende oven en vurige fakkel, die tussen die stukken doorging.

18 Ten zelfden dage maakte de HEERE een verbond met Abram, zeggende: Aan uw zaad heb Ik dit land gegeven, van de rivier van Egypte af, tot aan die grote rivier, de rivier Frath:

19 Den Keniet, en den Keniziet, en den Kadmoniet,

20 En den Hethiet, en den Fereziet, en de Refaieten,

21 En den Amoriet, en den Kanaaniet, en den Girgaziet, en den Jebusiet.

1862. That passed between those pieces. That this signifies that it separated those who were of the church from the Lord, may be seen from what was said above (at verse 10) concerning the partition of the animals in the midst, as signifying a parallelism and correspondence in respect to celestial things; and that one part being placed opposite the other signified the church and the Lord; and that the intermediate space or interspace signified that which comes in between the Lord and the church, or between the Lord and the man of the church, which is conscience, in which goods and truths have been implanted by means of charity. When hatreds succeed in place of charity, and evils and falsities in place of goods and truths, there is then no conscience of what is good and true; but this middle space or interspace appears to be filled with a furnace of smoke and with torches of fire, that is, with persuasions of falsity and with hatreds, which are what altogether separate the Lord from the church.

[2] These are the things signified by the passing between the pieces; chiefly that of the torch of fire, for this is the love of self, or what is the same, the evil of hatred. This may also be seen in Jeremiah, where we find nearly the same words:

I will give the men who have transgressed My covenant, who have not established the words of the covenant which they made before Me, the calf which they cut in twain and passed between the parts thereof; the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, that passed between the parts of the calf; I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of them that seek their souls; and their carcass shall be for food to the fowl of the heavens and to the beast of the earth (Jeremiah 34:14, 18-20).

Jeremiah 34

Estudio

   

1 The word which came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, and all his army, and all the kingdoms of the earth that were under his dominion, and all the peoples, were fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of it, saying:

2 Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Go, and speak to Zedekiah king of Judah, and tell him, Thus says Yahweh, Behold, I will give this city into the hand of the king of Babylon, and he shall burn it with fire:

3 and you shall not escape out of his hand, but shall surely be taken, and delivered into his hand; and your eyes shall see the eyes of the king of Babylon, and he shall speak with you mouth to mouth, and you shall go to Babylon.

4 Yet hear the word of Yahweh, O Zedekiah king of Judah: thus says Yahweh concerning you, You shall not die by the sword;

5 you shall die in peace; and with the burnings of your fathers, the former kings who were before you, so shall they make a burning for you; and they shall lament you, [saying], Ah Lord! for I have spoken the word, says Yahweh.

6 Then Jeremiah the prophet spoke all these words to Zedekiah king of Judah in Jerusalem,

7 when the king of Babylon's army was fighting against Jerusalem, and against all the cities of Judah that were left, against Lachish and against Azekah; for these [alone] remained of the cities of Judah [as] fortified cities.

8 The word that came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, after that the king Zedekiah had made a covenant with all the people who were at Jerusalem, to proclaim liberty to them;

9 that every man should let his male servant, and every man his female servant, who is a Hebrew or a Hebrewess, go free; that none should make bondservants of them, [to wit], of a Jew his brother.

10 All the princes and all the people obeyed, who had entered into the covenant, that everyone should let his male servant, and everyone his female servant, go free, that none should make bondservants of them any more; they obeyed, and let them go:

11 but afterwards they turned, and caused the servants and the handmaids, whom they had let go free, to return, and brought them into subjection for servants and for handmaids.

12 Therefore the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah from Yahweh, saying,

13 Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel: I made a covenant with your fathers in the day that I brought them forth out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage, saying,

14 At the end of seven years you shall let go every man his brother who is a Hebrew, who has been sold to you, and has served you six years, you shall let him go free from you: but your fathers didn't listen to me, neither inclined their ear.

15 You had now turned, and had done that which is right in my eyes, in proclaiming liberty every man to his neighbor; and you had made a covenant before me in the house which is called by my name:

16 but you turned and profaned my name, and caused every man his servant, and every man his handmaid, whom you had let go free at their pleasure, to return; and you brought them into subjection, to be to you for servants and for handmaids.

17 Therefore thus says Yahweh: you have not listened to me, to proclaim liberty, every man to his brother, and every man to his neighbor: behold, I proclaim to you a liberty, says Yahweh, to the sword, to the pestilence, and to the famine; and I will make you to be tossed back and forth among all the kingdoms of the earth.

18 I will give the men who have transgressed my covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before me, when they cut the calf in two and passed between its parts;

19 the princes of Judah, and the princes of Jerusalem, the eunuchs, and the priests, and all the people of the land, who passed between the parts of the calf;

20 I will even give them into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life; and their dead bodies shall be for food to the birds of the sky, and to the animals of the earth.

21 Zedekiah king of Judah and his princes will I give into the hand of their enemies, and into the hand of those who seek their life, and into the hand of the king of Babylon's army, who have gone away from you.

22 Behold, I will command, says Yahweh, and cause them to return to this city; and they shall fight against it, and take it, and burn it with fire: and I will make the cities of Judah a desolation, without inhabitant.
