Esekiel 14

Étudier

   

1 Og det kom til mig nogen av Israels eldste, og de satte sig foran mig.

2 Da kom Herrens ord til mig, og det lød så:

3 Menneskesønn! Disse menn har gitt sine motbydelige avguder rum i sitt hjerte, og det som er dem et anstøt til misgjerning, har de satt for sine øine; skulde jeg la mig spørre av dem?

4 Tal derfor med dem og si til dem: Så sier Herren, Israels Gud: Hver den av Israels hus som gir sine motbydelige avguder rum i sitt hjerte og setter det som er ham et anstøt til misgjerning, for sine øine og så kommer til profeten, ham vil jeg, Herren, selv svare* for hans mange motbydelige avguders skyld, / {* nemlig i gjerning ved å straffe ham; ESK 14, 8.}

5 for å gripe Israels hus i deres hjerte, fordi de alle har veket bort fra mig ved sine motbydelige avguder.

6 Si derfor til Israels hus: Så sier Herren, Israels Gud: Vend om og vend eder bort fra alle eders motbydelige avguder og vend eders åsyn bort fra alle eders vederstyggeligheter!

7 For hver den av Israels hus og av de fremmede som bor i Israel, som skiller sig fra mig og gir sine motbydelige avguder rum i sitt hjerte og setter det som er ham et anstøt til misgjerning, for sine øine og så kommer til profeten for å spørre mig for sig, ham vil jeg, Herren, selv svare på min vis.

8 Jeg vil sette mitt åsyn mot den mann og ødelegge ham, så han blir til et tegn og til et ordsprog, og jeg vil utrydde ham av mitt folk, og I skal kjenne at jeg er Herren.

9 Og om profeten lar sig forlokke og taler et ord, da er det jeg, Herren, som har forlokket denne profet, og jeg vil rekke ut min hånd mot ham og utslette ham av mitt folk Israel.

10 Og de skal lide for sin misgjerning; som det er med spørgerens misgjerning, så skal det være med profetens misgjerning,

11 forat Israels hus ikke mere skal forville sig bort fra mig og ikke mere gjøre sig uren med alle sine overtredelser, men være mitt folk, og jeg deres Gud, sier Herren, Israels Gud.

12 Og Herrens ord kom til mig, og det lød så:

13 Menneskesønn! Når et land synder mot mig og gjør sig skyldig i troløshet, og jeg rekker ut min hånd mot det og sønderbryter brødets stav for det og sender hungersnød over det og utrydder både mennesker og fe av det,

14 og om da disse tre menn, Noah, Daniel og Job, var der i landet, da skulde de ved sin rettferdighet bare kunne berge sitt eget liv, sier Herren, Israels Gud.

15 Om jeg lot ville dyr fare gjennem landet, og de gjorde det folketomt, og det blev til en ørken, så ingen kunde dra gjennem det for de ville dyrs skyld,

16 da skulde, så sant jeg lever, sier Herren, Israels Gud, disse tre menn, om de var der, hverken kunne berge sønner eller døtre; bare de selv skulde bli berget, men landet skulde bli en ørken.

17 Eller om jeg lot sverd komme over det land og sa: sverd skal fare gjennem landet, og jeg utryddet både mennesker og fe av det,

18 og disse tre menn var der i landet, da skulde de, så sant jeg lever, sier Herren, Israels Gud, ikke kunne berge sønner eller døtre, bare de selv skulde bli berget.

19 Eller om jeg sendte pest i det land og utøste min harme over det med blod for å utrydde både mennesker og fe av det,

20 og Noah, Daniel og Job var der i landet, da skulde de, så sant jeg lever, sier Herren, Israels Gud, hverken kunne berge sønn eller datter; bare sitt eget liv skulde de berge ved sin rettferdighet.

21 For så sier Herren, Israels Gud: Enn når jeg sender mine fire onde straffedommer, sverd, hungersnød og ville dyr og pest, over Jerusalem for å utrydde både mennesker og fe av det!

22 Allikevel skal nogen undkomme og bli igjen der, nogen sønner og døtre, som blir bortført, og de skal da komme ut til eder, og I skal se deres ferd og deres gjerninger, og I skal trøste eder over den ulykke jeg lot komme over Jerusalem, over alt det jeg lot komme over det.

23 Og de skal trøste eder når I ser deres ferd og deres gjerninger, og I skal kjenne at jeg ikke uten årsak har gjort noget av alt det jeg har gjort mot det, sier Herren, Israels Gud.

Doctrine of the Lord #28

Étudier ce passage

  
/ 65  
  

28. The Son of man symbolizes the Lord in relation to the Word because prophets also were called sons of man. Prophets were also called sons of man because they represented the Lord in relation to the Word, and therefore they symbolized the doctrine of the church drawn from the Word. Prophets have no other meaning in heaven when they are mentioned in the Word. For the spiritual meaning of a prophet, as also that of the Son of man, is the doctrine of the church drawn from the Word, and when referring to the Lord it is the Word itself.

That the prophet Daniel was called son of man may be seen in Daniel 8:17.

That the prophet Ezekiel was called son of man may be seen in Ezekiel 2:1, 3, 6, 8, 3:1, 3-4, 10, 17, 25, 4:1, 16, 5:1, 6:2, 7:2, 8:5-6, 8, 12, 15, 11:2, 4, 15, 12:2-3, 9, 18, 22, 27, 13:2, 17, 14:3, 13, 15:2, 16:2, 17:2, 20:3-4, 27, 46, 21:7, 11, 14, 17, 19, 24, 22:18, 24, 23:2, 36, 24:2, 16, 25, 25:2, 26:2, 27:2, 28:2, 12, 21, 29:2, 18, 30:2, 21, 31:2, 32:2, 18, 33:2, 7, 10, 12, 24, 30, 34:2, 35:2, 36:1, 17, 37:3, 9, 11, 16, 38:2, 14, 39:1, 17, 40:4, 43:7, 10, 18, 44:5.

It is apparent now from this that the Lord in relation to His Divine humanity is called the Son of God, and in relation to the Word the Son of man.

Ezekiel 43

Étudier

   

1 Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks toward the east.

2 Behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shined with his glory.

3 It was according to the appearance of the vision which I saw, even according to the vision that I saw when I came to destroy the city; and the visions were like the vision that I saw by the river Chebar; and I fell on my face.

4 The glory of Yahweh came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.

5 The Spirit took me up, and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of Yahweh filled the house.

6 I heard one speaking to me out of the house; and a man stood by me.

7 He said to me, Son of man, [this is] the place of my throne, and the place of the soles of my feet, where I will dwell in the midst of the children of Israel forever. The house of Israel shall no more defile my holy name, neither they, nor their kings, by their prostitution, and by the dead bodies of their kings [in] their high places;

8 in their setting of their threshold by my threshold, and their doorpost beside my doorpost, and there was [but] the wall between me and them; and they have defiled my holy name by their abominations which they have committed: therefore I have consumed them in my anger.

9 Now let them put away their prostitution, and the dead bodies of their kings, far from me; and I will dwell in the midst of them forever.

10 You, son of man, show the house to the house of Israel, that they may be ashamed of their iniquities; and let them measure the pattern.

11 If they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and its fashion, and its exits, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its ordinances, and all its forms, and all its laws; and write it in their sight; that they may keep the whole form of it, and all its ordinances, and do them.

12 This is the law of the house: on the top of the mountain the whole limit around it shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.

13 These are the measures of the altar by cubits (the cubit is a cubit and a handbreadth): the bottom shall be a cubit, and the breadth a cubit, and its border around its edge a span; and this shall be the base of the altar.

14 From the bottom on the ground to the lower ledge shall be two cubits, and the breadth one cubit; and from the lesser ledge to the greater ledge shall be four cubits, and the breadth a cubit.

15 The upper altar shall be four cubits; and from the altar hearth and upward there shall be four horns.

16 The altar hearth shall be twelve [cubits] long by twelve broad, square in the four sides of it.

17 The ledge shall be fourteen [cubits] long by fourteen broad in the four sides of it; and the border about it shall be half a cubit; and its bottom shall be a cubit around; and its steps shall look toward the east.

18 He said to me, Son of man, thus says the Lord Yahweh: These are the ordinances of the altar in the day when they shall make it, to offer burnt offerings thereon, and to sprinkle blood thereon.

19 You shall give to the priests the Levites who are of the seed of Zadok, who are near to me, to minister to me, says the Lord Yahweh, a young bull for a sin offering.

20 You shall take of its blood, and put it on the four horns of it, and on the four corners of the ledge, and on the border all around: thus you shall cleanse it and make atonement for it.

21 You shall also take the bull of the sin offering, and it shall be burnt in the appointed place of the house, outside of the sanctuary.

22 On the second day you shall offer a male goat without blemish for a sin offering; and they shall cleanse the altar, as they did cleanse it with the bull.

23 When you have finished cleansing it, you shall offer a young bull without blemish, and a ram out of the flock without blemish.

24 You shall bring them near to Yahweh, and the priests shall cast salt on them, and they shall offer them up for a burnt offering to Yahweh.

25 Seven days you shall prepare every day a goat for a sin offering: they shall also prepare a young bull, and a ram out of the flock, without blemish.

26 Seven days shall they make atonement for the altar and purify it; so shall they consecrate it.

27 When they have accomplished the days, it shall be that on the eighth day, and forward, the priests shall make your burnt offerings on the altar, and your peace offerings; and I will accept you, says the Lord Yahweh.
