Exodo 11

1 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, May isang salot pa akong dadalhin kay Faraon at sa Egipto; pagkatapos niyaon ay pahihintulutan niyang kayo'y umalis dito: pagpapahintulot niya sa inyong yumaon, ay tunay na kayo'y samasamang palalayasin niya rito.

2 Magsalita ka ngayon sa pakinig ng bayan, at humingi ang bawa't lalake sa kaniyang kapuwa, at bawa't babae sa kaniyang kapuwa, ng mga hiyas na pilak, at ng mga hiyas na ginto.

3 At pinagbiyayaan ng Panginoon ang bayan, sa paningin ng mga Egipcio. Saka si Moises ay lalaking naging dakila sa lupain ng Egipto, sa paningin ng mga lingkod ni Faraon, at sa paningin ng bayan.

4 At sinabi ni Moises, Ganito ang sinasabi ng Panginoon, Sa may hating gabi ay lalabas ako sa gitna ng Egipto:

5 At lahat ng mga panganay sa lupain ng Egipto ay mamamatay, mula sa panganay ni Faraon, na nakaluklok sa kaniyang luklukan, hanggang sa panganay ng aliping babaing nasa likuran ng gilingan; at ang lahat ng mga panganay sa mga hayop.

6 At magkakaroon ng malakas na hiyawan sa buong lupain ng Egipto, na hindi nagkaroon ng kaparis, at hindi na magkakaroon pa ng kaparis.

7 Datapuwa't sa lahat ng anak ng Israel mula sa tao hanggang sa hayop, ay walang maggagalaw kahit isang aso ng kaniyang dila laban sa tao o sa hayop: upang inyong makilala kung paano ang pagkakalagay ng pagkakaiba ng Panginoon sa mga Egipcio at sa Israel.

8 At bababain ako nitong lahat na iyong lingkod, at magsisiyukod sa akin, na magsasabi, Umalis ka, at ang buong bayan na sumusunod sa iyo: at pagkatapos niyaon ay aalis ako. At siya'y umalis sa harap ni Faraon na may maalab na galit.

9 At sinabi ng Panginoon kay Moises, Hindi kayo didinggin ni Faraon: upang ang aking mga kababalaghan ay dumami sa lupain ng Egipto.

10 At ginawa ni Moises at ni Aaron ang lahat ng mga kababalaghang ito sa harap ni Faraon: at pinapagmatigas ng Panginoon ang puso ni Faraon, at hindi niya pinahintulutan ang mga anak ni Israel ay umalis sa kaniyang lupain.

Apocalypse Explained #707

Studia questo passo

  
/ 1232  
  

707. A woman arrayed with the sun, signifies the church with those who are in love to the Lord, and thence in love towards the neighbor. This is evident from the signification of "woman," as being the spiritual affection of truth, from which the church is a church, consequently also the church in respect to that affection (of which above, n. 555; it follows that this means the New Church to be established by the Lord after the end of the present church, which is in the Christian world. This is evident also from the signification of the "sun," as being the Lord in relation to the Divine love, thus also love to the Lord from the Lord (of which also above, n. 401, 412); also from the signification of "arrayed" as being to live from that love, for the life of the love of everyone, both of man and of spirit and angel, forms a sphere about them from which what is their quality is perceived, even afar off; moreover, by means of that sphere consociations and conjunctions are effected in the heavens and also in the hells; and as here the church which is in love to the Lord from the Lord is treated of, and that church is meant by "the woman," and that love by "the sun," so "the woman arrayed with the sun" signifies the church with those who are in love to the Lord from the Lord. It is added, and thence in love towards the neighbor, because love towards the neighbor is derived from love to the Lord, as what is posterior is derived from its prior, or what is exterior from its interior; in a word, as an effect from its effecting cause; for love to the Lord is to love and to will those things that are of the Lord, consequently those things that the Lord has commanded in the Word, and love towards the neighbor is to act from that will, thus it consists in the performance of uses, which are effects. That this "woman" signifies the New Church, which is to be established by the Lord after the end of the church now existing in the Christian world, can be seen from what follows in this chapter, namely, that "she brought forth a son, a male child which the dragon wished to devour, and that was caught up to God," and that "the woman fled into the wilderness," and there too "the dragon wished to destroy her;" for from what follows it will be seen that "the son a male" means the truth of the doctrine of that church, and "the dragon" means those who are opposed to the truths of that doctrine. That the church here meant by the "woman" is the same church as "the New Jerusalem" that is described in the chapter, chap., and is there (verse 21:9) called "the bride, the Lamb's wife," will be seen in the explanation of that chapter.
