Exodo 11

勉強

   

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.

7776. 'About midnight' means when vastation is completed. This is clear from the meaning of 'midnight' as the time of thickest darkness, that is, utter falsity. For 'night' means a state of falsity, 2353, 6000, and 'the middle' of it is the peak, so that 'midnight' is when vastation is completed.

Arcana Coelestia#2353

この節の研究

2353. 'In the night' means the final period when these two are acknowledged no longer. This is clear from the meaning of 'the night' as a time of darkness when the things of light are seen no longer. The angels did not come in the night but at evening time, but because it was the men of Sodom who spoke and cried out, that is, those who are immersed in falsity and evil, the expression used is not 'in the evening' but 'in the night'. For 'night' in the Word means the period of time and the state when the light of truth exists no longer, but merely falsity and evil, and so is the final period when judgement takes place.

[2] This meaning is met in other places, as in Micah,

Against the prophets who lead the people astray: It is night for you instead of vision, and darkness for you instead of divination, and the sun is setting upon the prophets and the day is becoming black over them. Micah 3:5-6.

'The prophets' here stands for those who teach falsities. 'Night', 'darkness', 'sunset', and 'the day becoming black' stand for falsities and evils.

[3] In John,

If anyone walks in the day he does not stumble; but if anyone walks in the night he stumbles because the light is not in him. John 11:9-10.

Here 'night' stands for falsity deriving from evil. 'The light' stands for truth deriving from good, for just as all the light of truth derives from good, so all the night of falsity does so from evil.

[4] In the same gospel,

I must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day; night is coming when nobody can work. John 9:4.

'Day' stands for the period of time and the state when good and truth are present, but 'night' when evil and falsity are present.

[5] In Luke,

I tell you, in that night there will be two upon one bed; one will be taken, the other left. Luke 17:34.

Here 'night' stands for the final period when the truth of faith is no more.

[6] When the children of Israel were going out of Egypt they were commanded 'to go out at midnight', because in this way the vastation of good and truth inside the Church was represented, and also that nothing except falsity and evil reigned there any longer, Exodus 11:4. And when they did, all the firstborn of Egypt were slain at midnight, Exodus 12:12, 29-30. Now because those with whom good and truth are present, who were represented by the children of Israel, are watched over when, like Lot in Sodom, they are among falsities and evils, that night is described in reference to them as 'the night when Jehovah kept watch', Exodus 12:42.
