出埃及记 11

Étudier

   

1 耶和华摩西:我再使样的灾殃临到法老埃及,然他必容你们离开这地。他容你们去的时候,总要催逼你们都从这地出去。

2 你要传於百姓的耳中,叫他们女各向邻舍要器。

3 耶和华叫百姓在埃及人眼前蒙恩,并且摩西埃及法老臣仆,和百姓的眼中看为极

4 摩西耶和华这样:约到半夜,我必出去巡行埃及遍地。

5 凡在埃及,从宝座法老直到磨子的婢女所有的长子,以及一切头生的牲畜,都必

6 埃及必有哀号;从前没有这样的,後来也必没有。

7 至於以色列中,无论是牲畜,连也不敢向他们摇,好叫你们知道耶和华是将埃及人以色列人分别出来。

8 你这一切臣仆都要俯伏来见我,说:求你和跟从你的百姓都出去,然我要出去。於是,摩西气忿忿的离开法老,出去了。

9 耶和华摩西法老必不你们,使我的奇事在埃及多起来。

10 摩西亚伦法老面前行了这一切奇事;耶和华使法老的刚硬,不容以色列人出离他的

3312. 'Dwelling in tents' means worship arising out of this. This is clear from the meaning of 'tents' as the holiness of love and of the worship arising out of this, 414, 1102, 2145, 2152. The reason 'tents' means the holiness of the worship arising is that in most ancient times the member of the Church with whom love to the Lord and consequently holy worship existed dwelt in tents and held his holy worship there. And because the holiness of love and the resulting holiness of worship started to be represented at that period by means of tents, they were commanded to make a Tent according to the pattern shown to Moses on Mount Sinai and to establish their Divine worship there. This was also the origin of the Feast of Tabernacles when they had to dwell in tents, which they were required to do so as to represent the holy worship which existed with the member of the celestial Church. From this it is evident that 'dwelling in tents' means worship.
