1 Когда народ увидел, что Моисей долго не сходит с горы, то собрался к Аарону и сказал ему: встань и сделай нам бога, который бы шел перед нами, ибо с этим человеком, с Моисеем, который вывел нас из земли Египетской, не знаем, что сделалось.

2 И сказал им Аарон: выньте золотые серьги, которые в ушах ваших жен, ваших сыновей и ваших дочерей, и принесите ко мне.

3 И весь народ вынул золотые серьги из ушей своих и принесли к Аарону.

4 Он взял их из рук их, и сделал из них литого тельца, и обделал его резцом. И сказали они: вот бог твой, Израиль, который вывел тебя из земли Египетской!

5 Увидев сие , Аарон поставил пред ним жертвенник, и провозгласил Аарон, говоря: завтра праздник Господу.

6 На другой день они встали рано и принесли всесожжения и привели жертвы мирные: и сел народ есть и пить, а после встал играть.

7 И сказал Господь Моисею: поспеши сойти; ибо развратился народ твой, который ты вывел из земли Египетской;

8 скоро уклонились они от пути, который Я заповедал им: сделали себелитого тельца и поклонились ему, и принесли ему жертвыи сказали: вот бог твой, Израиль, который вывел тебя из земли Египетской!

9 И сказал Господь Моисею: Я вижу народ сей, и вот, народ он –жестоковыйный;

10 итак оставь Меня, да воспламенится гнев Мой на них, и истреблю их, и произведу многочисленный народ от тебя.

11 Но Моисей стал умолять Господа, Бога Своего, и сказал: да не воспламеняется, Господи, гнев Твой на народ Твой, который Ты вывел из земли Египетской силою великою и рукою крепкою,

12 чтобы Египтяне не говорили: на погибель Он вывел их, чтобы убить ихв горах и истребить их с лица земли; отврати пламенный гнев Твой и отмени погубление народа Твоего;

13 вспомни Авраама, Исаака и Израиля, рабов Твоих, которым клялся ТыСобою, говоря: умножая умножу семя ваше, как звезды небесные, и всю землю сию, о которойЯ сказал, дам семени вашему, и будут владеть вечно.

14 И отменил Господь зло, о котором сказал, что наведет его на народ Свой.

15 И обратился и сошел Моисей с горы; в руке его были двескрижали откровения, на которых написано было с обеих сторон: и на той и на другой стороне написано было;

16 скрижали были дело Божие, и письмена, начертанные на скрижалях, были письмена Божии.

17 И услышал Иисус голос народа шумящего и сказал Моисею: военный крик в стане.

18 Но Моисей сказал: это не крик побеждающих и не вопль поражаемых; я слышу голос поющих.

19 Когда же он приблизился к стану и увидел тельца и пляски, тогда он воспламенился гневом и бросил из рук своих скрижали и разбил их под горою;

20 и взял тельца, которого они сделали, и сжег его в огне, и стер в прах, и рассыпал по воде, и дал ее пить сынам Израилевым.

21 И сказал Моисей Аарону: что сделал тебе народ сей, что ты ввел его в грех великий?

22 Но Аарон сказал: да не возгорается гнев господина моего; ты знаешь этот народ, что он буйный.

23 Они сказали мне: сделай нам бога, который шел бы перед нами; ибо сМоисеем, с этим человеком, который вывел нас из земли Египетской, не знаем, что сделалось.

24 И я сказал им: у кого есть золото, снимите с себя. и отдали мне; я бросил его в огонь, и вышел этот телец.

25 Моисей увидел, что это народ необузданный, ибо Аарон допустил его до необузданности, к посрамлению пред врагами его.

26 И стал Моисей в воротах стана и сказал: кто Господень, – ко мне!И собрались к нему все сыны Левиины.

27 И он сказал им: так говорит Господь Бог Израилев: возложите каждый свой меч на бедро свое, пройдите по стану от ворот до ворот и обратно, и убивайте каждый брата своего, каждый друга своего, каждый ближнего своего.

28 И сделали сыны Левиины по слову Моисея: и пало в тот день из народа около трех тысяч человек.

29 Ибо Моисей сказал: сегодня посвятите руки ваши Господу, каждый в сыне своем и брате своем, да ниспошлет Он вам сегодня благословение.

30 На другой день сказал Моисей народу: вы сделали великий грех; итак я взойду к Господу, не заглажу ли греха вашего.

31 И возвратился Моисей к Господу и сказал: о, народ сей сделал великий грех: сделал себе золотого бога;

32 прости им грех их, а если нет, то изгладь и меня из книги Твоей, в которую Ты вписал.

33 Господь сказал Моисею: того, кто согрешил предо Мною, изглажу из книги Моей;

34 итак, иди, веди народ сей, куда Я сказал тебе; вот Ангел Мой пойдет пред тобою, и в день посещения Моего Я посещу их за грех их.

35 И поразил Господь народ за сделанного тельца, которого сделал Аарон.

10429. And behold it is a stiff-necked people. That this signifies that they do not receive influx from the Lord, is evident from the signification of “stiff-necked,” as being not to receive influx; for by the “neck” [cervix and collum] is signified the conjunction and communication of things higher and lower, thus influx (see n. 3542, 3603, 3695, 3725, 5320, 5328, 5926, 6033, 8079, 9913, 9914), and by “stiff” is signified that which resists and refuses, thus that which does not receive. This people is so called because they were in external things without what is internal; and they who are such, refuse all influx out of heaven or from the Lord, for influx comes through what is internal into what is external. Therefore when the internal is closed, there is not any reception of the Divine in the external, for only that is received which flows in from the world, thus only what is worldly, bodily, and earthly. Moreover, in the other life, when such persons are seen in the light of heaven, there appear as it were grates of teeth, or as it were something hairy, or as it were a bony substance without life, instead of a head and face; for the face corresponds to those things which are of the internal man, and the body to those things which are of the external man, and the neck to the conjunction of these.

[2] It shall here be briefly explained what is meant by being in external things without what is internal, as is said of that nation. Every man has an internal and an external, for the internal is his thought and his will, and the external is his speech and his action; but the internal with the good differs very much from the internal with the evil. Each has an internal which is called the internal man, and an external which is called the external man; the internal man being formed according to the image of heaven; but the external man according to the image of the world (n. 9279). With those who are in the good of love and in the truths of faith, the internal man is open, and by means of it they are in heaven; but with those who are in evils and in the consequent falsities, the internal man is closed, and by means of the external they are in the world only. These are they of whom it is said that they are in external things without what is internal.

[3] These indeed also have interiors, but the interiors with them are the interiors of their external man which is in the world, and not the interiors of the internal man which is in heaven. These interiors (namely, those of the external man when the internal is closed), are evil, nay, filthy, for such persons think solely of the world and of themselves, and wish for those things only which are of the world and of self; and think nothing at all about heaven and the Lord, nor do they wish for them. From this it can be seen what is meant by being in external things without what is internal.

[4] As such was the nature of the Israelitish nation, therefore when they were in a holy external their interiors were closed, because these were loathsome and unclean, that is, were full of the love of self and of the world; thus of contempt for others in comparison with themselves, of hatred against all who offended them, of ferociousness against them, and of cruelty, avarice, rapine, and other like things. That this nation was of such a character is very evident from the song of Moses in Deuteronomy (32:15-43); where it is described by the command of Jehovah; and also from Jeremiah throughout; and lastly from the Lord Himself in the Gospels.

Exodus 32

Studija

   

1 When the people saw that Moses delayed to come down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, "Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don't know what has become of him."

2 Aaron said to them, "Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me."

3 All the people took off the golden rings which were in their ears, and brought them to Aaron.

4 He received what they handed him, and fashioned it with an engraving tool, and made it a molten calf; and they said, "These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt."

5 When Aaron saw this, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made a proclamation, and said, "Tomorrow shall be a feast to Yahweh."

6 They rose up early on the next day, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

7 Yahweh spoke to Moses, "Go, get down; for your people, who you brought up out of the land of Egypt, have corrupted themselves!

8 They have turned aside quickly out of the way which I commanded them. They have made themselves a molten calf, and have worshiped it, and have sacrificed to it, and said, 'These are your gods, Israel, which brought you up out of the land of Egypt.'"

9 Yahweh said to Moses, "I have seen these people, and behold, they are a stiff-necked people.

10 Now therefore leave me alone, that my wrath may burn hot against them, and that I may consume them; and I will make of you a great nation."

11 Moses begged Yahweh his God, and said, "Yahweh, why does your wrath burn hot against your people, that you have brought forth out of the land of Egypt with great power and with a mighty hand?

12 Why should the Egyptians speak, saying, 'He brought them forth for evil, to kill them in the mountains, and to consume them from the surface of the earth?' Turn from your fierce wrath, and repent of this evil against your people.

13 Remember Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, your servants, to whom you swore by your own self, and said to them, 'I will multiply your seed as the stars of the sky, and all this land that I have spoken of I will give to your seed, and they shall inherit it forever.'"

14 Yahweh repented of the evil which he said he would do to his people.

15 Moses turned, and went down from the mountain, with the two tablets of the testimony in his hand; tablets that were written on both their sides; on the one side and on the other they were written.

16 The tablets were the work of God, and the writing was the writing of God, engraved on the tables.

17 When Joshua heard the noise of the people as they shouted, he said to Moses, "There is the noise of war in the camp."

18 He said, "It isn't the voice of those who shout for victory, neither is it the voice of those who cry for being overcome; but the noise of those who sing that I hear."

19 It happened, as soon as he came near to the camp, that he saw the calf and the dancing: and Moses' anger grew hot, and he threw the tablets out of his hands, and broke them beneath the mountain.

20 He took the calf which they had made, and burnt it with fire, ground it to powder, and scattered it on the water, and made the children of Israel drink of it.

21 Moses said to Aaron, "What did these people do to you, that you have brought a great sin on them?"

22 Aaron said, "Don't let the anger of my lord grow hot. You know the people, that they are set on evil.

23 For they said to me, 'Make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don't know what has become of him.'

24 I said to them, 'Whoever has any gold, let them take it off:' so they gave it to me; and I threw it into the fire, and out came this calf."

25 When Moses saw that the people had broken loose, (for Aaron had let them loose for a derision among their enemies),

26 then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, "Whoever is on Yahweh's side, come to me!" All the sons of Levi gathered themselves together to him.

27 He said to them, "Thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, 'Every man put his sword on his thigh, and go back and forth from gate to gate throughout the camp, and every man kill his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor.'"

28 The sons of Levi did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day about three thousand men.

29 Moses said, "Consecrate yourselves today to Yahweh, yes, every man against his son, and against his brother; that he may bestow on you a blessing this day."

30 It happened on the next day, that Moses said to the people, "You have sinned a great sin. Now I will go up to Yahweh. Perhaps I shall make atonement for your sin."

31 Moses returned to Yahweh, and said, "Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have made themselves gods of gold.

32 Yet now, if you will, forgive their sin--and if not, please blot me out of your book which you have written."

33 Yahweh said to Moses, "Whoever has sinned against me, him will I blot out of my book.

34 Now go, lead the people to the place of which I have spoken to you. Behold, my angel shall go before you. Nevertheless in the day when I punish, I will punish them for their sin."

35 Yahweh struck the people, because they made the calf, which Aaron made.
