Ezekielis 4

Estudio

   

1 “Tu, žmogaus sūnau, pasiimk plytą, pasidėk ją prieš save ir nubraižyk ant jos Jeruzalės miestą.

2 Apgulk miestą, padaryk sutvirtinimus, pylimą, karių stovyklas ir sienų griovimo įtaisus.

3 Dar paimk geležinę skardą ir pastatyk ją kaip geležinę sieną tarp savęs bei miesto. Atgręžk savo veidą į jį, ir jis bus apgultas­tu būsi jį apgulęs. Tai bus ženklas Izraelio namams.

4 Tu atsigulk ant kairiojo šono ir uždėk ant jo Izraelio namų kaltę. Kiek dienų gulėsi, tiek neši jų kaltę.

5 Ant tavęs uždėjau jų kaltės metus, atitinkamą dienų skaičių. Tris šimtus devyniasdešimt dienų tu neši Izraelio kaltę.

6 Kai tai atliksi, tada gulkis ant dešiniojo šono ir nešk Judo kaltę keturiasdešimt dienų. Aš įskaitysiu tau dieną už metus.

7 Tu atsigręžk veidu į apgultą Jeruzalę ir pranašauk ištiesęs apnuogintą ranką į miestą.

8 Aš surišau tave virvėmis, kad negalėtum apsiversti nuo vieno šono ant kito, kol pasibaigs Jeruzalės apgultis.

9 Imk kviečių, miežių, pupų, lešių, sojų bei rugių, sudėk visa į vieną indą ir pasigamink maistą daugeliui dienų. Kai gulėsi ant šono, valgyk jį tris šimtus devyniasdešimt dienų.

10 Maistą valgyk pagal svorį, dienai dvidešimt šekelių. Tiek valgyk kas dieną.

11 Vandenį gerk atseikėtą, kas dieną po šeštą dalį hino.

12 Valgyk tai kaip miežinius papločius ir iškepk juos ant žmogaus mėšlo jų akivaizdoje.

13 Taip izraelitai valgys suteptą maistą, gyvendami tarp pagonių, kur Aš juos išsklaidysiu”.

14 Tada atsakiau: “Ak, Viešpatie Dieve, aš niekada nesu susitepęs: nuo savo jaunystės iki šios dienos nevalgiau pastipusio nei sudraskyto gyvulio, nešvarios mėsos neturėjau savo burnoje”.

15 Viešpats sakė: “Tau leidžiu ruošiant maistą vietoje žmonių mėšlo naudoti galvijų mėšlą.

16 Žmogaus sūnau, Aš Jeruzalėje sunaikinsiu duonos ramstį. Jie valgys susirūpinę maistą pagal svorį ir gers išsigandę atseikėtą vandenį.

17 Jiems neužteks nei maisto, nei vandens. Jie žiūrės vienas į kitą išsigandę ir žus dėl savo nusikaltimų”.

127. Internal Meaning of Ezekiel, Chapter 4

Representation of the perverted church in the church. (2)

1-2 He should represent the falsities of the church, and the church besieged by them. (2)

3 He should represent the hardness of their heart, from which it is that they have no fear; (2)

4-8 he should also represent the church besieged by falsities of evil and evils of falsity. (2)

9-16 He should represent the falsification and adulteration of the sense of the letter of the Word, (2)

17 by which everything of the church has perished. (2, 3)

Editor's Introduction: In this work, Emanuel Swedenborg outlined the internal meaning of all the Prophetical Books, from Isaiah to Malachi, and the Psalms, and then the first 16 chapters of Genesis. It provides a survey of the inner meaning of a substantial portion of the Old Testament, in one place.

This work was written by Swedenborg in Latin, in 1761. It was translated from Latin into English by Rev. J. E. Schreck, and this translation was published by the Swedenborg Foundation, in New York, in 1900. This modified version of Schreck's 1900 translation does not update the text; instead just modifying numbering and formatting for clarity of use online.

Each chapter of each book of the Prophets has one corresponding numbered section in Swedenborg's explanation of its inner meaning, or internal sense. Swedenborg listed the verses that relate to each outlined point. We have added hyperlinks to the verse references, shown to the left of each outlined point. The Psalms and initial chapters of Genesis are treated in a similar fashion.

This work was not published by Swedenborg, but it is consistent with other more detailed treatments made in his published works. For example, Swedenborg refers to this work in Doctrine of the Lord 37.

Readers may also find these comparisons useful:

- No. 124 of this work, explaining Ezekiel 1, with The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Sacred Scripture 97,

- Nos. 161, 162, explaining Ezekiel 38, and 39, with Apocalypse Revealed 859,

- No. 236, explaining Zechariah 4, with Apocalypse Revealed 43, and

- Nos. 244-246 of this work, explaining Zechariah 12, 13, 14, with Apocalypse Revealed 707.

In the manuscript, at the beginning, Swedenborg wrote out a list of works that he intended to write and publish. While it's clearly related to the project of outlining the internal meaning of the Prophets, Psalms, and historical parts of the Word, it seems to be an independent list. We reproduce Rev. Schreck's translation of that list here:

"To Be Published:

1. Concerning the Lord.

2. Concerning the Sacred Scripture or concerning the Word of the Lord.

3. All things of religion and of the worship of God in one complex in the Decalogue.

4. Concerning Faith.

5. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine Providence.

6. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine omnipotence and omniscience, and concerning infinity and eternity.

7. Angelic wisdom concerning life.

8. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine love and Divine wisdom."

Notas a pie de página:

1. In the original Latin manuscript, Swedenborg cross-referred the outlined internal sense to a more general Table of Subjects, shown above. In the following passages, those references are shown in parentheses, e.g. (3) would refer to subject number 3 above. We received the Latin text for this "front matter" from the Heavenly Doctrines Publishing Foundation.

2. Editor's Note (Schreck): No. 14 is crossed out by Swedenborg in his MS., and is never referred to in the text. It reads, "The state of unition with His Divine," which is the same as No. 10.

Doctrine of the Lord 3 for an outline of a similar set of themes that form the internal sense of the prophetical books.
