Matthew 17:24-27 : The Temple Tax

Étudier

24 And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?

25 He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?

26 Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.

27 Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.

「学生の準備ができたら、マスターが現れる」という古いことわざがあります。アイデアは、次のマスターが次のステップを教えるために来る前に、学生は既に教えられたすべてを彼らの人生に取り入れなければならないということです。イエスはペテロ、ヤコブ、ヨハネの目を新しい霊的な現実に向けるという言葉に似たようなものがありますが、今では彼らはいつも教えられてきたことをいつも信じていたものすべてと統合しようとするのに苦労しています。 (注-トッドはエラーについて謝罪します。この音声で、彼は誤って「スピリチュアルは自然に役立つ」と言います...彼は「自然はスピリチュアルに役立つ」と言いました。)

7382. 'Stretch out your hand with your rod' means the power of inward truth directed through outward truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'hand' as spiritual power, which belongs to inward truth, and from the representation of 'rod' as natural power, which belongs to outward truth, both dealt with in 6947, 6948. For the fact that all power in the spiritual world belongs to truth, see 3091, 3787, 4931, 6344, 6423, 6948. Since 'Moses' represents inward law, which is the same as inward truth, and 'Aaron' represents outward law, which is the same as outward truth, and since inward truth flows into outward truth and gives it power, 7381, Moses' word of command to Aaron 'stretch out your hand with your rod' means the power of inward truth directed through outward truth.
