Ezekiel 47

勉強

   

1 At ibinalik niya ako sa pintuan ng bahay; at, narito, ang tubig ay lumalabas sa ilalim ng pasukan sa bahay sa dakong silanganan (sapagka't ang harapan ng bahay ay sa dakong silanganan); at ang tubig ay umaagos sa ilalim, mula sa dakong kanan ng bahay, sa timugan ng dambana.

2 Nang magkagayo'y inilabas niya ako sa daan ng pintuang-daang hilagaan, at pinatnubayan niya ako sa palibot ng daan sa labas, sa lalong labas ng pintuang-daan, sa daan ng pintuang-daan na nakaharap sa dakong silanganan; at, narito, doo'y lumalabas ang tubig sa dakong kanan.

3 Nang ang lalake ay lumabas sa dakong silanganan na may pising panukat sa kaniyang kamay, siya'y sumukat ng isang libong siko, at pinaraan niya ako sa tubig, sa tubig na hanggang bukongbukong.

4 Muling sumukat siya ng isang libo, at pinaraan niya ako sa tubig, sa tubig na hanggang mga tuhod. Muli siyang sumukat ng isang libo, at pinaraan niya ako sa tubig, sa tubig na hanggang sa mga balakang.

5 Pagkatapos ay sumukat siya ng isang libo; at isang ilog na hindi ko naraanan; sapagka't ang tubig ay sumasampa, tubig upang languyan, ilog na hindi mararaanan.

6 At sinabi niya sa akin, Anak ng tao, nakita mo baga ito? Nang magkagayo'y dinala niya ako, at pinabalik niya ako sa pangpang ng ilog.

7 Nang ako nga'y makabalik, narito, sa pangpang ng ilog, ay may totoong maraming puno ng kahoy sa magkabilang dako.

8 Nang magkagayo'y sinabi niya sa akin, Ang tubig na ito ay lumalabas sa dakong silanganang lupain, at bababa sa Araba; at huhugos sa dagat; sa dagat ay huhugos ang tubig na pinalabas; at ang tubig ay mapagagaling.

9 At mangyayari, na bawa't likhang may buhay na dumadami, saan mang dako umaagos ang tubig, ay mabubuhay; at magkakaroon ng totoong napakaraming isda; sapagka't ang tubig na ito ay dumarating diyan at ang tubig ng dagat ay mapagagaling, at bawa't may buhay ay mabubuhay saan man dumating ang ilog.

10 At mangyayari, na ang mga mangingisda ay magsisitayo sa tabi niyaon: mula sa En-gedi hanggang sa En-eglaim ay magiging dako na ladlaran ng mga lambat; ang mga isda ng mga yaon ay magiging ayon sa pagkakaisda ng mga yaon, gaya ng isda sa malaking dagat, na totoong marami.

11 Nguni't ang kaniyang mga dakong maburak, at ang mga lumbak niyaon, ay hindi mapapagaling; magiging asinan nga.

12 At sa pangpang ng ilog sa tabi niyaon, sa dakong ito at sa dakong yaon, tutubo ang sarisaring punong kahoy na pinakapagkain, na ang dahon ay hindi matutuyo, ni magkukulang man ang bunga niyaon: magbubunga ng bago buwan-buwan, sapagka't ang tubig niyaon ay lumalabas sa santuario; at ang bunga niyaon ay magiging pagkain at ang dahon niyaon ay pangpagaling.

13 Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Ito ang magiging hangganan, na inyong pagbabahagihan ng lupain na pinakamana ayon sa labing dalawang lipi ng Israel: ang Jose ay magkakaroon ng dalawang bahagi.

14 At inyong mamanahin, ng isa na gaya ng iba; sapagka't aking isinumpa na ibigay ito sa inyong mga magulang: at ang lupaing ito ay mahuhulog sa inyo na pinakamana.

15 At ito ang magiging hangganan ng lupain: Sa dakong hilagaan, mula sa malaking dagat, sa daang Hethlon, hanggang sa pasukan sa Sedad;

16 Hamath, Berotha, Sibrahim, na nasa pagitan ng hangganan ng Damasco at ng hangganan ng Hamath; Haser-hatticon na nasa tabi ng hangganan ng Hauran.

17 At ang hangganang mula sa dagat ay magiging ang Hazar-enon sa hangganan ng Damasco, at nasa hilagaan na dakong hilagaan ang hangganan ng Hamath. Ito ang dakong hilagaan.

18 At ang dakong silanganan, ang pagitan ng Hauran at ng Damasco at ng Galaad, at ang lupain ng Israel, ay siyang magiging Jordan; mula sa hilagaang hangganan hanggang sa silanganang dagat ay inyong susukatin. Ito ang dakong silanganan.

19 At ang timugang dako na gawing timugan ay magiging mula sa Tamar hanggang sa tubig ng Meribot-cades, sa batis ng Egipto, hanggang sa malaking dagat. Ito ang timugang dako na gawing timugan.

20 At ang dakong kalunuran ay magiging ang malaking dagat, mula sa hangganang timugan hanggang sa tapat ng pasukan sa Hamath. Ito ang dakong kalunuran.

21 Gayon ninyo hahatiin ang lupaing ito sa inyo ayon sa mga lipi ng Israel.

22 At mangyayari na inyong hahatiin sa sapalaran na pinakamana sa inyo at sa mga taga ibang lupa na makikipamayan sa gitna ninyo, na magkakaanak sa gitna ninyo; at sila'y magiging sa inyo'y gaya ng ipinanganak sa gitna ng mga anak ni Israel; sila'y magkakaroon ng mana na kasama ninyo sa gitna ng mga lipi ng Israel.

23 At mangyayari, na kung saang lipi nakipamayan ang taga ibang lupa, doon ninyo bibigyan siya ng mana, sabi ng Panginoong Dios.

Apocalypse Revealed#191

この節の研究

191. "'I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God.'" This symbolically means that the truths they possess, springing from goodness derived from the Lord, sustain the Lord's church in heaven.

A temple symbolizes the church, and the temple of My God symbolizes the Lord's church in heaven. It is apparent from this that a pillar symbolizes what sustains and stabilizes the church, and that is the Divine truth in the Word.

In the highest sense, a temple symbolizes the Lord in respect to His Divine humanity, particularly in respect to Divine truth. In a representative sense, however, a temple symbolizes the Lord's church in heaven, and so also the Lord's church in the world.

That a temple in the highest sense symbolizes the Lord in respect to His Divine humanity, and particularly in respect to Divine truth, is apparent from the following passages:

(Jesus said to the Jews,) "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up." ...He was speaking of the temple of His body. (John 2:19, 21)

I saw no temple in (the New Jerusalem), for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. (Revelation 21:22)

Behold..., the Lord, whom you seek, will suddenly come to His temple, and the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire. (Malachi 3:1)

I will bow myself toward Your holy temple... (Psalms 138:2)

...I will look again toward Your holy temple... And my prayer went to You, to Your holy temple. (Jonah 2:4, 7)

Jehovah is in His holy temple. (Habakkuk 2:20)

The holy temple of Jehovah or of the Lord is His Divine humanity, for it is to this that people bow, look to, and pray, and not to the temple merely, as the temple is not, in itself, holy. It is called a holy temple, because holiness is predicated of Divine truth (no. 173).

"The temple that sanctifies the gold" in Matthew 23:16-17 means nothing else than the Lord's Divine humanity.

[2] That a temple in a representative sense symbolizes the Lord's church in heaven, is apparent from the following passages:

(The) voice (of Jehovah) from the temple...! (Isaiah 66:6)

...a loud voice came out of the temple of heaven... (Revelation 16:17)

The temple of God was opened in heaven, and the ark of His covenant was seen in His temple. (Revelation 11:19)

...the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened. And out of the temple came the seven angels... And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God... (Revelation 15:5-6, 8)

I called upon Jehovah, and cried out to my God; He heard my voice from His temple... (Psalms 18:6)

I saw the Lord sitting on a throne, high and lofty, and His skirts filled the temple. (Isaiah 6:1)

[3] That a temple symbolizes the church in the world is apparent from these passages:

Our holy... temple... has become a conflagration... (Isaiah 64:11)

I will shake all nations..., that I may fill this house with glory... The glory of this latter house shall be greater than the former... (Haggai 2:7, 9)

The new temple in Ezekiel 40; 41; 42; 43; 44; 45; 46; 47; 48 describes a church to be established by the Lord. A church is also meant in Revelation 11:1 by the temple that the angel measured. So likewise elsewhere, as in Isaiah 44:28, Jeremiah 7:2-4, 9-11, Zechariah 8:9.

...the disciples (of Jesus) came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said to them, ."..Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left... upon another, that shall not be demolished." (Matthew 24:1-2)

The temple here symbolizes the church today; and its demolition means, symbolically, that not one stone would be left upon another. This symbolizes the end of that church, when not any truth would remain. For when the disciples spoke with the Lord about the temple, the Lord foretold the consecutive states of this church, even to its last one, or the end of the age; and the end of the age means the final period of the church, which is the one that exists today. This was represented by the destruction of that temple to its foundations.

[4] A temple has these three symbolic meanings, namely the Lord, the church in heaven, and the church in the world. Because these three are bound up together, they cannot be separated. Consequently one cannot be meant without the other. Therefore anyone who divorces the church in the world from the church in heaven, or the one or the other from the Lord, is without the truth.

The temple here means the church in heaven, because reference to the church in the world follows after this (no. 194).

Ezekiel 47

勉強

   

1 He brought me back to the door of the house; and behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward; (for the forefront of the house was toward the east;) and the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar.

2 Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me round by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of [the gate] that looks toward the east; and behold, there ran out waters on the right side.

3 When the man went forth eastward with the line in his hand, he measured one thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.

4 Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through [the waters], waters that were to the waist.

5 Afterward he measured one thousand; [and it was] a river that I could not pass through; for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed through.

6 He said to me, Son of man, have you seen [this]? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the bank of the river.

7 Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.

8 Then he said to me, These waters issue forth toward the eastern region, and shall go down into the Arabah; and they shall go toward the sea; into the sea [shall the waters go] which were made to issue forth; and the waters shall be healed.

9 It shall happen, that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, shall live; and there shall be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters are come there, and [the waters of the sea] shall be healed, and everything shall live wherever the river comes.

10 It shall happen, that fishermen shall stand by it: from En Gedi even to En Eglaim shall be a place for the spreading of nets; their fish shall be after their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceeding many.

11 But the miry places of it, and its marshes, shall not be healed; they shall be given up to salt.

12 By the river on its bank, on this side and on that side, shall grow every tree for food, whose leaf shall not wither, neither shall its fruit fail: it shall bring forth new fruit every month, because its waters issue out of the sanctuary; and its fruit shall be for food, and its leaf for healing.

13 Thus says the Lord Yahweh: This shall be the border, by which you shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph [shall have two] portions.

14 You shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I swore to give it to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you for inheritance.

15 This shall be the border of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, to the entrance of Zedad;

16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazer Hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.

17 The border from the sea, shall be Hazar Enon at the border of Damascus; and on the north northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.

18 The east side, between Hauran and Damascus and Gilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the [north] border to the east sea you shall measure. This is the east side.

19 The south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth Kadesh, to the brook [of Egypt], to the great sea. This is the south side southward.

20 The west side shall be the great sea, from the [south] border as far as over against the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.

21 So you shall divide this land to you according to the tribes of Israel.

22 It shall happen, that you shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the aliens who live among you, who shall father children among you; and they shall be to you as the native-born among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.

23 It shall happen, that in what tribe the stranger lives, there you shall give him his inheritance, says the Lord Yahweh.
