Ezekielis 47

勉強

   

1 Jis atvedė mane atgal prie namų durų, ir štai vanduo tekėjo iš po namų slenksčio rytų pusėje, nes jų priekis buvo rytų pusėje. Vanduo tekėjo iš po namo sienos dešinėje pusėje, į pietus nuo aukuro.

2 Po to jis išvedė mane pro šiaurės vartus ir nuvedė prie išorinių vartų rytų pusėje. Dešinėje pusėje tekėjo vanduo.

3 Vyras laikė rankoje matuojamąją virvę ir, eidamas rytų link, atmatavo tūkstantį uolekčių. Jis įvedė mane į vandenį, kuris siekė man iki kulkšnių.

4 Jis vėl atmatavo tūkstantį uolekčių ir vedė mane per vandenį. Dabar vanduo man siekė iki kelių. Dar kartą atmatavęs tūkstantį uolekčių, vėl vedė mane per vandenį. Vanduo man buvo iki juosmens.

5 Jis ketvirtą kartą atmatavo tūkstantį uolekčių. Čia jau buvo gili upė, kurios nebegalėjau perbristi. Buvo taip gilu, kad reikėjo plaukti.

6 Jis klausė manęs: “Žmogaus sūnau, ar tu matei?” Tada jis išvedė mane į upės krantą.

7 Grįžęs mačiau labai daug medžių abiejuose upės krantuose.

8 Jis man sakė: “Šitas vanduo teka į rytus, pasieks slėnį ir įtekės į jūrą. Įtekėjęs į jūrą, jis išgydys jos vandenis.

9 Kur šios upės vanduo įtekės, bus gausu žuvies ir kitų vandens gyvių. Vandenys bus išgydyti ir visa atgis, kai įtekės upės vanduo.

10 Nuo En Gedžio iki En Eglaimų stovės žvejai ir džiovins tinklus. Čia bus taip gausu įvairių rūšių žuvies, kaip Didžiojoje jūroje.

11 Balose ir pelkėse vanduo nepasikeis, jis liks sūrus.

12 Abiejuose upės krantuose augs vaisiniai medžiai. Jų lapai nenuvys, medžiai neš vaisius visą laiką, kiekvieną mėnesį, nes vanduo iš šventyklos juos drėkins. Jų vaisius vartos maistui, o lapus vaistams”.

13 Taip sako Viešpats Dievas: “Kraštą paveldės dvylika Izraelio giminių. Jis bus padalintas, o Juozapas gaus dvi dalis.

14 Jūs paveldėsite kraštą lygiomis dalimis. Aš prisiekiau jį duoti jūsų tėvams, ir jis bus jūsų nuosavybė.

15 Krašto ribos šiaurėje bus nuo Didžiosios jūros Hetlono link iki Cedado,

16 Hamato, Berotajo ir Sibraimų, kuris yra tarp Damasko ir Hamato, ir iki Hacer Tikono prie Haurano.

17 iba nuo jūros bus Hacar Enonas, Damasko riba ir į šiaurę iki Hamato ribos. Tai bus šiaurinė riba.

18 ytuose riba eis tarp Haurano ir Damasko, tarp Gileado ir Izraelio, Jordano upe iki ytų jūros. Tai bus rytinė riba.

19 Pietuose riba eis nuo Tamaros iki Kadešo kivirčų vandens, toliau Egipto upeliu iki Didžiosios jūros. Tai bus pietinė riba.

20 Vakarinė riba bus Didžioji jūra iki Hamato. Tai bus vakarinė riba.

21 Jūs padalinsite šį kraštą Izraelio giminėms.

22 Paveldą paskirstysite, mesdami burtus sau ir tarp jūsų gyvenantiems ateiviams, kuriems gimė vaikų, gyvenant tarp jūsų. Jie bus kaip ir gimę Izraelyje, ir jiems burtų keliu paskirsite nuosavybę tarp Izraelio giminių.

23 Kurioje giminėje gyvens ateivis, ten duosite jam nuosavybę,­sako Viešpats Dievas”.

40. 'Creeping things which the waters bring forth' means facts which belong to the external man, while 'birds' generally means rational concepts and also intellectual concepts, of which the latter belong to the internal man. That creeping things from the waters, or fish, mean facts is clear in Isaiah,

I came, and there was no man. By My rebuke I will dry up the sea, I will make the rivers a desert. Their fish will stink because there is no water and will die of thirst. I will clothe the heavens with darkness. Isaiah 50:2-3.

[2] This is plainer still in Ezekiel where the Lord describes the new temple, or new Church in general, and the member of the Church, or person who has been regenerated, for every regenerate person is a temple of the Lord,

The Lord Jehovih 1 said to me, Those waters which will go out to the boundary eastwards will come towards the sea, having been directed into the sea, and the waters will be fresh. And it will be that every living creature which swarms will live, wherever the water of the rivers reaches, and there will be very many fish, for these waters are going there and will become fresh; and everything will live where the river goes. And it will be that fishermen from En-gedi to En-eglaim will stand beside it, with nets spread out. Its fish according to their kinds will be very many, like the fish of the great sea. Ezekiel 47:8-10.

'Fishermen from En-gedi to En-eglaim with their nets stretched out' means people who are to teach the natural man about the truths of faith.

[3] In the Prophets 'birds' invariably means rational concepts and intellectual concepts, as in Isaiah,

Calling a bird of prey from the east, a man of My counsel from a distant land. Isaiah 46:11.

In Jeremiah,

I looked, and behold there was no man, and all the birds of the air 2 had fled. Jeremiah 4:25.

In Ezekiel,

I will plant the sprig of a lofty cedar, and it will bring forth a branch, and bear fruit, and it will become a noble cedar, and under it will dwell every bird of every sort, 3 in the shade of its branches they will dwell. Ezekiel 17:23.

And in Hosea, when the subject is a new Church, or regenerate person,

And I will make for them a covenant on that day, with the wild animals of the field, and with the birds of the air, 2 and with things moving on the ground. Hosea 2:18.

Anyone may see that because the Lord 'is making a new covenant' with them, 'wild animal' is not used to mean a wild animal, nor 'bird' to mean a bird.

脚注:

1. The Latin has Jehovah; for the form Jehovih see 1793

2. literally, bird of the heavens (or the skies)

3. literally, of every wing

Genesis 1

勉強

1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

2 Now the earth was formless and empty. Darkness was on the surface of the deep. God's Spirit was hovering over the surface of the waters.

3 God said, "Let there be light," and there was light.

4 God saw the light, and saw that it was good. God divided the light from the darkness.

5 God called the light "day," and the darkness he called "night." There was evening and there was morning, one day.

6 God said, "Let there be an expanse in the middle of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters."

7 God made the expanse, and divided the waters which were under the expanse from the waters which were above the expanse; and it was so.

8 God called the expanse "sky." There was evening and there was morning, a second day.

9 God said, "Let the waters under the sky be gathered together to one place, and let the dry land appear;" and it was so.

10 God called the dry land "earth," and the gathering together of the waters he called "seas." God saw that it was good.

11 God said, "Let the earth put forth grass, herbs yielding seed, and fruit trees bearing fruit after their kind, with its seed in it, on the earth;" and it was so.

12 The earth brought forth grass, herbs yielding seed after their kind, and trees bearing fruit, with its seed in it, after their kind; and God saw that it was good.

13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day.

14 God said, "Let there be lights in the expanse of sky to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days and years;

15 and let them be for lights in the expanse of sky to give light on the earth;" and it was so.

16 God made the two great lights: the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night. He also made the stars.

17 God set them in the expanse of sky to give light to the earth,

18 and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. God saw that it was good.

19 There was evening and there was morning, a fourth day.

20 God said, "Let the waters swarm with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of sky."

21 God created the large sea creatures, and every living creature that moves, with which the waters swarmed, after their kind, and every winged bird after its kind. God saw that it was good.

22 God blessed them, saying, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let birds multiply on the earth."

23 There was evening and there was morning, a fifth day.

24 God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind, livestock, creeping things, and animals of the earth after their kind;" and it was so.

25 God made the animals of the earth after their kind, and the livestock after their kind, and everything that creeps on the ground after its kind. God saw that it was good.

26 God said, "Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the sky, and over the livestock, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

27 God created man in his own image. In God's image he created him; male and female he created them.

28 God blessed them. God said to them, "Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth, and subdue it. Have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the sky, and over every living thing that moves on the earth."

29 God said, "Behold, I have given you every herb yielding seed, which is on the surface of all the earth, and every tree, which bears fruit yielding seed. It will be your food.

30 To every animal of the earth, and to every bird of the sky, and to everything that creeps on the earth, in which there is life, I have given every green herb for food;" and it was so.

31 God saw everything that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. There was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.
