Genesis 12

Studija

   

1 Nebo byl řekl Hospodin Abramovi: Vyjdi z země své a z příbuznosti své, i z domu otce svého do země, kterouž ukáži tobě.

2 A učiním tě v národ veliký, a požehnám tobě, a zvelebím jméno tvé, a budeš požehnání.

3 Požehnám také dobrořečícím tobě, a zlořečícím tobě zlořečiti budu; ano požehnány budou v tobě všecky čeledi země.

4 I vyšel Abram, tak jakž mu byl mluvil Hospodin, a šel s ním Lot. (Byl pak Abram v sedmdesáti pěti letech, když vyšel z Cháran.)

5 A vzal Abram Sarai manželku svou, a Lota syna bratra svého, a všecko zboží své, kteréhož nabyli, i duše, kterýchž dosáhli v Cháran. A vyšedše, brali se do země Kananejské, až i přišli do ní.

6 I prošel Abram tu zemi až k místu Sichem, to jest až k rovině More. A tehdáž Kananejští byli v zemi.

7 I ukázal se Hospodin Abramovi a řekl: Semeni tvému dám zemi tuto. Tedy vzdělal tu oltář Hospodinu, kterýž se byl ukázal jemu.

8 A odtud podal se k hoře, kteráž leží na východ od Bethel, kdežto rozbil stan svůj, tak že mu Bethel byl na západ, Hai pak na východ; i vzdělal tam oltář Hospodinu, a vzýval jméno Hospodinovo.

9 Potom hnul se Abram dále, a odebral se odtud ku poledni.

10 Byl pak hlad v té zemi; protož sstoupil Abram do Egypta, aby tam byl pohostinu; nebo veliký byl hlad v té zemi.

11 I stalo se, že když přicházel blízko k Egyptu, řekl k Sarai manželce své: Aj, nyní znám, že jsi žena krásné tváři.

12 A stane se, že když tě uzří Egyptští, řeknou: To jest manželka jeho; i zabijí mne, tebe pak živé nechají.

13 Prav medle, že jsi sestra má, aby mi dobře bylo příčinou tvou, a živa zůstala duše má pro tebe.

14 I stalo se, když všel Abram do Egypta, viděli Egyptští ženu, že krásná byla náramně.

15 A vidouce ji knížata Faraonova, schválili ji před ním; i vzata jest žena do domu Faraonova.

16 Kterýžto i Abramovi dobře učinil pro ni; a měl ovce a voly a osly, i služebníky a děvky, též oslice a velbloudy.

17 Ale Hospodin trápil Faraona ranami velikými, i dům jeho, pro Sarai manželku Abramovu.

18 Protož povolal Farao Abrama a řekl: Cos mi to učinil? Pročežs mi neoznámil, že ona manželka tvá jest?

19 Proč jsi řekl: Sestra má jest? A vzal jsem ji sobě za ženu. Protož nyní, teď máš manželku svou, vezmi a jdi.

20 I poručil o něm Farao mužům, a propustili ho, i manželku jeho i všecko, což měl.

1434. And Lot his brother’s son. That this signifies sensuous truth, and thus the first that was insinuated into the Lord when a child, is evident from the signification of “Lot,” as being the sensuous-as stated in the explication of the preceding verse—and from the signification of “son,” as being truth (see n. 264, 489, 491, 533); and also from the signification of “brother,” as being the truth of faith n. 367 us sensuous truth is what is here signified, for in the internal sense there is no reflection on the persons and words, but only upon their signification. In heaven they do not know who Lot is, but only the quality that is represented by him; nor do they know what a son is, but the spiritual state by which one is relatively as a son; nor do they know what a brother is, except from brotherhood such as there is in heaven. As regards sensuous truth, it is the first truth that insinuates itself; for in childhood the judgment does not go higher. Sensuous truth consists in seeing all earthly and worldly things as being created by God, and each and every thing for a purpose, and in all things whatsoever a certain image of God’s kingdom. This sensuous truth is insinuated solely with the celestial man; and as the Lord alone was a celestial man, these and similar sensuous truths were insinuated into Him in earliest childhood: whereby He was prepared for the reception of celestial things.

264. That the “conception and birth of sons” in the Word, are taken in a spiritual sense—“conception” for the thought and device of the heart, and “sons” for truths, is evident from Hosea:

As for Ephraim, their glory shall fly away like a bird, from the birth, and from the womb, and from the conception; though they shall have brought up their sons, yet will I bereave them, that they be not man; yea, woe also to them when I depart from them (Hosea 9:11-12),

where “Ephraim” signifies the intelligent, or the understanding of truth; and “sons” truths themselves. It is likewise said elsewhere concerning Ephraim, or one who is intelligent, who has become foolish:

The sorrows of one in travail have come upon him, he is an unwise son, for at the time he will not stand in the breach of the womb of sons (Hosea 13:13).

And in Isaiah:

Blush, O Zidon, for the sea hath spoken, the fortress of the sea, saying, I have not travailed, nor brought forth, nor have I brought up young men, nor caused girls to grow up; as at the report concerning Egypt, they shall bring forth according to the report of Tyre (Isaiah 23:4-5),

where “Zidon” means those who have been in the knowledges of faith, but have destroyed them by memory-knowledges [scientifica], and so have become barren.

[2] Again in the same prophet, treating of regeneration, and where likewise the truths of faith are signified by “sons”: Before she travailed she bringeth forth; and before her pain came, she was delivered of a man child; who hath heard such a thing? who hath seen such things? shall the earth bring forth in one day? and shall I not cause to bring forth? saith Jehovah; shall I cause to bring forth, and close up? saith thy God (Isaiah 66:7-9).

Goods and truths, being conceived and born of the heavenly marriage, are therefore called “sons” by the Lord in Matthew:

He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man; the field is the world; and the seed are the sons of the kingdom (Matthew 13:37-38).

And the goods and truths of a saving faith He calls “sons of Abraham” (John 8:39); for “seed” (as stated n. 255) denotes faith, wherefore “sons” which are of the “seed” are the goods and truths of faith. Hence also the Lord, as being Himself the “seed” called Himself the “Son of man” that is, the faith of the church.
