Michée 4

1 Mais il arrivera aux derniers jours, que la montagne de la maison de l'Eternel sera affermie au sommet des montagnes, et sera élevée par-dessus les coteaux; les peuples y aborderont.

2 Et plusieurs nations iront, et diront : Venez, et montons à la montagne de l'Eternel, et à la maison du Dieu de Jacob; et il nous enseignera touchant ses voies, et nous marcherons dans ses sentiers; car la Loi sortira de Sion, et la parole de l'Eternel [sortira] de Jérusalem.

3 Il exercera jugement parmi plusieurs peuples, et il censurera fortement les grandes nations jusqu'aux pays les plus éloignés; et de leurs épées elles forgeront des hoyaux; et de leurs hallebardes, des serpes; une nation ne lèvera plus l'épée contre l'autre, et elles ne s'adonneront plus à la guerre.

4 Mais chacun s'assiéra sous sa vigne et sous son figuier, et il n'y aura personne qui les épouvante; car la bouche de l'Eternel des armées a parlé.

5 Certainement tous les peuples marcheront chacun au nom de son dieu; mais nous marcherons au nom de l'Eternel notre dieu à toujours et à perpétuité.

6 En ce temps-là, dit l'Eternel, j'assemblerai la boiteuse, et je recueillerai celle qui avait été chassée, et celle que j'avais affligée.

7 Et je mettrai la boiteuse, pour être un résidu, et celle qui était éloignée, pour être une nation robuste; l'Eternel régnera sur eux en la montagne de Sion dès cette heure-là à toujours.

8 Et toi, Tour du troupeau, Hophel, la fille de Sion viendra jusqu'à toi; et la première domination viendra, le Royaume, [dis-je], viendra à la fille de Jérusalem.

9 Pourquoi t'écries-tu maintenant si fort? N'y a-t-il point de Roi au milieu de toi? Ou ton conseiller est-il péri, que la douleur t'ait saisie comme de celle qui enfante?

10 Sois en travail, et crie, fille de Sion, comme celle qui enfante; car tu sortiras bientôt de la ville, et tu demeureras aux champs, et viendras jusqu'à Babylone; [mais] là tu seras délivrée; là l'Eternel te rachètera des mains de tes ennemis.

11 Et maintenant se sont assemblées contre toi plusieurs nations qui disent : Qu'elle soit profanée, et que notre œil voie en Sion [ce qu'il y voudrait voir].

12 Mais ils ne connaissent point les pensées de l'Eternel, et n'entendent point son conseil; car il les a assemblées comme des gerbes dans l'aire.

13 Lève-toi, et foule, fille de Sion, car je ferai que ta corne sera de fer, et je ferai que tes ongles seront d'airain; et tu menuiseras plusieurs peuples, et je dédierai comme un interdit leur gain à l'Eternel, et leurs biens au Seigneur de toute la terre.

Apocalypse Explained＃404

404. Verse 14. And the heaven departed as a book rolled up, signifies that the spiritual man became closed up. This is evident from the signification of "heaven," as being the church in general and in particular; for the church is the heaven of the Lord on the earth; moreover, the church makes one with heaven by conjunction; therefore when "heaven and earth" are mentioned in the Word, the church internal and external is meant, for the internal of the men of the church is heaven with them, and their external is the world with them; and as "heaven and earth" signify the church internal and external so they signify the internal and external man, or the spiritual and the natural man; for as man in whom is the good of love and of faith is a church, so the church, in general exists from the men in whom the church is. This makes clear why it is that "heaven" here means the internal or spiritual man. It is said "the spiritual man," by which is meant the spiritual mind, which is the higher or interior mind of man, while the lower or exterior mind is called the natural man. The above is evident also from the signification of "departed as a book rolled up," as meaning that it became closed up; for the spiritual mind, which is, as was said, the higher or interior mind with man, is opened by truths applied to life, thus by goods, but it is closed up by falsities applied to life, thus by evils; and the closing up is as the rolling up of the scroll of a book. That this is so was made very clear by the appearances in the spiritual world when the Last Judgment was accomplished; for the mountains and the hills there then appeared sometimes to be rolled up as the scroll of a book is rolled up, and those that were upon them were then rolled down into hell. The cause of this appearance was this: that the interiors of their minds, through which somewhat of light from heaven had before flowed in, were then closed up. What takes place in general with many, takes place with everyone in particular of a like character, for in the spiritual world such as the general is, such is the particular (See in the work on Heaven and Hell 73). By "book" is meant a scroll, because in ancient times there were no types and thus no books like those at the present day, but there were scrolls of parchments; so "books" in Revelation mean scrolls, and "heaven departed as a book rolled up" means as a scroll rolled up; the same as in Isaiah:

All the host of the heavens shall waste away, and the heavens shall be rolled up as a book (Isaiah 34:4).

Luke 13:6-9

勉強

      

6 He spoke this parable. "A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard, and he came seeking fruit on it, and found none.

7 He said to the vine dresser, 'Behold, these three years I have come looking for fruit on this fig tree, and found none. Cut it down. Why does it waste the soil?'

8 He answered, 'Lord, leave it alone this year also, until I dig around it, and fertilize it.

9 If it bears fruit, fine; but if not, after that, you can cut it down.'"
