1 Kaj estis en la tempo de Amrafel, regxo de SXinar, Arjohx, regxo de Elasar, Kedorlaomer, regxo de Elam, kaj Tidal, regxo de Gojim;

2 ili faris militon kontraux Bera, regxo de Sodom, kaj Birsxa, regxo de Gomora, SXinab, regxo de Adma, kaj SXemeber, regxo de Ceboim, kaj la regxo de Bela, kiu estas Coar.

3 CXiuj cxi tiuj kunvenis en la valo Sidim, kiu nun estas la Sala Maro.

4 Dek du jarojn ili servis al Kedorlaomer, kaj en la dek-tria ili ribeligxis.

5 Kaj en la dek-kvara jaro venis Kedorlaomer, kaj la regxoj, kiuj estis kun li, kaj ili venkobatis la Rafaidojn en Asxterot-Karnaim, kaj la Zuzidojn en Ham, kaj la Emidojn en SXave-Kirjataim,

6 kaj la HXoridojn sur ilia monto Seir gxis El-Paran, kiu estas cxe la dezerto.

7 Kaj ili reiris kaj venis al En-Misxpat, kiu estas Kadesx, kaj venkobatis la tutan kampon de la Amalekidoj, kaj ankaux la Amoridojn, kiuj logxis en HXacacon-Tamar.

8 Kaj eliris la regxo de Sodom kaj la regxo de Gomora kaj la regxo de Adma kaj la regxo de Ceboim, kaj la regxo de Bela, kiu estas Coar, kaj komencis batalon kontraux ili en la valo Sidim,

9 kontraux Kedorlaomer, regxo de Elam, kaj Tidal, regxo de Gojim, kaj Amrafel, regxo de SXinar, kaj Arjohx, regxo de Elasar; kvar regxoj kontraux kvin.

10 Kaj en la valo Sidim estis multe da bitumaj kavoj; kaj la regxoj de Sodom kaj Gomora forkuris kaj falis tien, kaj la restintoj kuris sur la monton.

11 Kaj ili prenis la tutan havon de Sodom kaj Gomora kaj ilian tutan mangxeblajxon, kaj foriris.

12 Ili prenis Loton, la nevon de Abram, kaj lian havon, cxar li logxis en Sodom, kaj ili foriris.

13 Kaj venis forsavigxinto kaj diris al Abram la Hebreo, kiu logxis en la arbareto de Mamre la Amorido, frato de Esxkol kaj frato de Aner, kiuj estis en interligo kun Abram.

14 Kaj Abram auxdis, ke lia frato estas kaptita, kaj li elkondukis siajn ekzercitojn, naskitajn en lia domo, tricent dek ok, kaj persekutis gxis Dan.

15 Kaj li dividis sin kontraux ili en la nokto, li kaj liaj domanoj, kaj venkobatis ilin, kaj persekutis ilin gxis HXoba, kiu estas maldekstre de Damasko.

16 Kaj li revenigis la tutan havon, kaj ankaux sian fraton Lot kaj lian havon li revenigis, kaj ankaux la virinojn kaj la popolon.

17 Kaj la regxo de Sodom eliris al li renkonte, kiam li revenis, venkinte Kedorlaomeron kaj la regxojn, kiuj estis kun li, en la valon SXave, kiu estas Valo de la Regxo.

18 Kaj Melkicedek, regxo de Salem, elportis panon kaj vinon. Li estis pastro de Dio Plejsupra.

19 Kaj li benis lin kaj diris: Benata estu Abram de Dio Plejsupra, la Kreinto de la cxielo kaj la tero;

20 kaj benata estu Dio Plejsupra, kiu transdonis viajn malamikojn en viajn manojn. Kaj Abram donis al li dekonajxon el cxio.

21 Kaj la regxo de Sodom diris al Abram: Donu al mi la homojn, kaj la havon prenu al vi.

22 Kaj Abram diris al la regxo de Sodom: Mi levas mian manon al la Eternulo, Dio Plejsupra, la Kreinto de la cxielo kaj la tero,

23 ke ecx fadenon aux rimenon de sxuo mi ne prenos el cxio, kio apartenas al vi, por ke vi ne diru: Mi ricxigis Abramon;

24 escepto estos nur tio, kion mangxis la junuloj, kaj la parto de la homoj, kiuj iris kun mi: Aner, Esxkol, kaj Mamre; ili prenu sian parton.

1702. That 'Abram the Hebrew' is the Interior Man to whom the Internal or Divine Man was joined becomes clear from the meaning of Abram the Hebrew, that is, from Abram's descriptive name used here 'the Hebrew'. In what has gone before and in what follows where Abram is referred to he is not called 'the Hebrew'. Only here is he called such, and therefore something distinct with regard to the Lord is represented and meant by 'Abram the Hebrew'. What is represented and meant becomes clear from the internal sense, namely this, that the Interior Man was joined to the Internal or Divine Man, as becomes clear also from the train of thought in the internal sense. The name 'the Hebrews' occurs in the Word when something to do with service is meant, whatever it may be, as becomes clear from what follows. The Interior Man is such that it serves the Internal or Divine Man, and therefore the Interior Man is here called 'Abram the Hebrew'.

[2] What the interior man is scarcely anyone knows, and therefore let this be described briefly. The interior man is situated between the internal man and the external man, it being by means of the interior man that the internal man communicates with the external. Without the interior man between them no communication from one to the other is ever possible. The celestial is distinct and separate from the natural, and still more from the bodily; and unless there is something in between through which communication is established the celestial cannot possibly operate into the natural, still less into the bodily. The interior man is called the rational man, and because that man is situated between the two, it communicates in one direction with the internal man where there is good itself and truth itself, and in the other with the external man where there is evil and falsity. By means of this communication with the internal man a person is able to think about celestial and spiritual things, or look upwards, which animals cannot do; and by means of his communication with the external man a person is able to think about worldly and bodily things, or look downwards almost in the way animals do which likewise possess ideas of earthly things. In short, the interior man, or the man between internal man and external, is the rational man itself, which is spiritual or celestial when looking upwards but merely animal when looking downwards.

[3] It is well known that a person can be aware of the fact that he is speaking in one way while thinking in another, and doing one thing while willing another, and that presence and deception are present; also that reason or rationality exists, and that this is something interior since it is able to dissent; also that with one who is to be regenerated something interior exists which battles with that which is exterior. This interior something which thinks differently and wills differently from that which is exterior, and which battles with it, is the interior man. Within this interior man conscience resides in the case of the spiritual man and perception in the case of the celestial man. This Interior Man, which was joined in the Lord's case to the Divine Internal Man, is that which is here called 'Abram the Hebrew'.

Genesis 14

勉強

   

1 It happened in the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar, Arioch, king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and Tidal, king of Goiim,

2 that they made war with Bera, king of Sodom, and with Birsha, king of Gomorrah, Shinab, king of Admah, and Shemeber, king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar).

3 All these joined together in the valley of Siddim (the same is the Salt Sea).

4 Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year, they rebelled.

5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer came, and the kings who were with him, and struck the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,

6 and the Horites in their Mount Seir, to Elparan, which is by the wilderness.

7 They returned, and came to En Mishpat (the same is Kadesh), and struck all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that lived in Hazazon Tamar.

8 The king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar) went out; and they set the battle in array against them in the valley of Siddim;

9 against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings against the five.

10 Now the valley of Siddim was full of tar pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and they fell there, and those who remained fled to the hills.

11 They took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their food, and went their way.

12 They took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who lived in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

13 One who had escaped came and told Abram, the Hebrew. Now he lived by the oaks of Mamre, the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner; and these were allies of Abram.

14 When Abram heard that his relative was taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued as far as Dan.

15 He divided himself against them by night, he and his servants, and struck them, and pursued them to Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.

16 He brought back all the goods, and also brought back his relative, Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.

17 The king of Sodom went out to meet him, after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, at the valley of Shaveh (that is, the King's Valley).

18 Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine: and he was priest of God Most High.

19 He blessed him, and said, "blessed be Abram of God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth:

20 and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand." Abram gave him a tenth of all.

21 The king of Sodom said to Abram, "Give me the people, and take the goods to yourself."

22 Abram said to the king of Sodom, "I have lifted up my hand to Yahweh, God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth,

23 that I will not take a thread nor a sandal strap nor anything that is yours, lest you should say, 'I have made Abram rich.'

24 I will accept nothing from you except that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me: Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. Let them take their portion."
