Бытие 25

Étudier

   

1 И взял Авраам еще жену, именем Хеттуру.

2 Она родила ему Зимрана, Иокшана, Медана, Мадиана, Ишбака и Шуаха.

3 Иокшан родил Шеву и Дедана. Сыны Дедана были: Ашурим, Летушим и Леюмим.

4 Сыны Мадиана: Ефа, Ефер, Ханох, Авида и Елдага. Все сии сыны Хеттуры.

5 И отдал Авраам все, что было у него, Исааку,

6 а сынам наложниц, которые были у Авраама, дал Авраам подарки и отослал их от Исаака, сына своего, еще при жизни своей, на восток, в землю восточную.

7 Дней жизни Авраамовой, которые он прожил, было сто семьдесят пять лет;

8 и скончался Авраам, и умер в старости доброй, престарелый и насыщенный жизнью , и приложился к народу своему.

9 И погребли его Исаак и Измаил, сыновья его, в пещере Махпеле, на поле Ефрона, сына Цохара, Хеттеянина, которое против Мамре,

10 на поле, которые Авраам приобрел от сынов Хетовых. Там погребеныАвраам и Сарра, жена его.

11 По смерти Авраама Бог благословил Исаака, сына его. Исаак жил при Беэр-лахай-рои.

12 Вот родословие Измаила, сына Авраамова, которого родила Аврааму Агарь Египтянка, служанка Саррина;

13 и вот имена сынов Измаиловых, имена их по родословию их: первенец Измаилов Наваиоф, за ним Кедар, Адбеел, Мивсам,

14 Мишма, Дума, Масса,

15 Хадад, Фема, Иетур, Нафиш и Кедма.

16 Сии суть сыны Измаиловы, и сии имена их, в селениях их, в кочевьях их. Это двенадцать князей племен их.

17 Лет же жизни Измаиловой было сто тридцать семь лет; и скончался он, и умер, и приложился к народу своему.

18 Они жили от Хавилы до Сура, что пред Египтом, как идешь к Ассирии. Они поселились пред лицем всех братьев своих.

19 Вот родословие Исаака, сына Авраамова. Авраам родил Исаака.

20 Исаак был сорока лет, когда он взял себе в жену Ревекку, дочь Вафуила Арамеянина из Месопотамии, сестру Лавана Арамеянина.

21 И молился Исаак Господу о жене своей, потому что она была неплодна; и Господь услышал его, и зачала Ревекка, жена его.

22 Сыновья в утробе ее стали биться, и она сказала: если так будет, то для чего мне это? И пошла вопросить Господа.

23 Господь сказал ей: два племени во чреве твоем, и два различных народа произойдут из утробы твоей; один народ сделается сильнеедругого, и больший будет служить меньшему.

24 И настало время родить ей: и вот близнецы в утробе ее.

25 Первый вышел красный, весь, как кожа, косматый; и нарекли ему имя Исав.

26 Потом вышел брат его, держась рукою своею за пяту Исава; и наречено ему имя Иаков. Исаак же был шестидесяти лет, когда они родились.

27 Дети выросли, и стал Исав человеком искусным в звероловстве, человеком полей; а Иаков человеком кротким, живущим в шатрах.

28 Исаак любил Исава, потому что дичь его была по вкусу его, а Ревекка любила Иакова.

29 И сварил Иаков кушанье; а Исав пришел с поля усталый.

30 И сказал Исав Иакову: дай мне поесть красного, красного этого, ибо я устал. От сего дано ему прозвание: Едом.

31 Но Иаков сказал: продай мне теперь же свое первородство.

32 Исав сказал: вот, я умираю, что мне в этом первородстве?

33 Иаков сказал: поклянись мне теперь же. Он поклялся ему, и продал первородство свое Иакову.

34 И дал Иаков Исаву хлеба и кушанья из чечевицы; и он ел и пил, и встал и пошел; и пренебрег Исав первородство.

3332. And Jacob gave Esau bread and pottage of lentils. That this signifies the good of life gifted with the good of truth and the good of doctrinal things, is evident from the representation of Esau, as being the good of life (n. 3300, 3322); and from the signification of “bread,” as being the good of love in general, both celestial and spiritual (n. 276, 680, 2165, 2177), thus also the good of truth, for this is spiritual good; and from the signification of “pottage of lentils,” as being the good of doctrinal things; for “pottage” signifies a chaotic mass of doctrinal things (n. 3316), and “lentils” the good thereof. That Jacob gave them to Esau, in the internal sense signifies that these goods come through the doctrine of truth, which is represented by Jacob (n. 3305).

[2] In this last verse, by these words and those which follow there is described the progress as to truth and good of the spiritual man when being regenerated, namely, that he first learns the doctrinal things of truth, next is affected by them (which is the good of the doctrinal things), then that by taking a mental view of these doctrinal things he is affected with the truths in them (which is the good of truth), and lastly that he wills to live according to them, which is the good of life. In this way the spiritual man when being regenerated advances from the doctrine of truth to the good of life. But when he is in the good of life the order is inverted, and from this good he looks to the good of truth, from this to the good of doctrinal things, and from this to the doctrinal things of truth. From this it may be known how man from being a sensuous man becomes spiritual, and of what quality he is when he becomes spiritual.

[3] That these goods, namely, the good of life, the good of truth, and the good of doctrinal things, are distinct from each other can be seen by those who carefully consider the matter. The good of life is that which flows from the will; the good of truth is that which flows from the understanding; and the good of doctrinal things is that which flows from memory-knowledge. The good which is doctrinal has these other goods within it.

[4] That “lentils” signify the good of doctrinal things, is evident from the fact that wheat, barley, beans, lentils, millet, spelt, are such things as mean bread, but with a difference according to the species; that “bread” in general denotes good is manifest from what has been stated and shown above (n. 276, 680, 2165, 2177); thus different species of good are signified by the cereals in question, the more noble species of good by “wheat and barley,” but the less noble by “beans and lentils;” as is also manifest from Ezekiel:

Take thou also unto thee wheat, and barley, and beans, and lentils, and millet, and spelt, and put them into one vessel, and make thee bread thereof (Ezekiel 4:9).

Numbers 7

Étudier

   

1 It happened on the day that Moses had finished setting up the tabernacle, and had anointed it and sanctified it, with all its furniture, and the altar with all its vessels, and had anointed and sanctified them;

2 that the princes of Israel, the heads of their fathers' houses, offered. These were the princes of the tribes. These are they who were over those who were numbered:

3 and they brought their offering before Yahweh, six covered wagons, and twelve oxen; a wagon for every two of the princes, and for each one an ox: and they presented them before the tabernacle.

4 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

5 "Accept these from them, that they may be used in doing the service of the Tent of Meeting; and you shall give them to the Levites, to every man according to his service."

6 Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them to the Levites.

7 He gave two wagons and four oxen to the sons of Gershon, according to their service:

8 and he gave four wagons and eight oxen to the sons of Merari, according to their service, under the direction of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

9 But to the sons of Kohath he gave none, because the service of the sanctuary belonged to them; they carried it on their shoulders.

10 The princes gave offerings for the dedication of the altar in the day that it was anointed, even the princes gave their offerings before the altar.

11 Yahweh said to Moses, "They shall offer their offering, each prince on his day, for the dedication of the altar."
