1 Mose 35

Სწავლა

   

1 Und Gott sprach zu Jakob: Mache dich auf, ziehe hinauf nach Bethel und wohne daselbst, und mache daselbst einen Altar dem Gott, (El) der dir erschienen ist, als du vor deinem Bruder Esau flohest.

2 Da sprach Jakob zu seinem Hause und zu allen, die bei ihm waren: Tut die fremden Götter hinweg, die in eurer Mitte sind, und reiniget euch und wechselt eure Kleider;

3 und wir wollen uns aufmachen und nach Bethel hinaufziehen, und ich werde daselbst einen Altar machen dem Gott, (El) der mir geantwortet hat am Tage meiner Drangsal und mit mir gewesen ist auf dem Wege, den ich gewandelt bin.

4 Und sie gaben Jakob alle fremden Götter, die in ihrer Hand, und die inge, die in ihren Ohren waren, (d. h. die sie als Amulette trugen) und Jakob vergrub sie unter der Terebinthe, die bei Sichem ist.

5 Und sie brachen auf. Und der Schrecken Gottes kam über die Städte, die rings um sie her waren, so daß sie den Söhnen Jakobs nicht nachjagten.

6 Und Jakob kam nach Lus, welches im Lande Kanaan liegt, das ist Bethel, er und alles Volk, das bei ihm war.

7 Und er baute daselbst einen Altar und nannte den Ort El-Bethel: (Gott des Gotteshauses) denn Gott hatte sich ihm daselbst geoffenbart, als er vor seinem Bruder floh.

8 Und Debora, die Amme ebekkas, starb, und sie wurde begraben unterhalb Bethel unter der Eiche; und man gab ihr den Namen Allon Bakuth. (Eiche des Weinens)

9 Und Gott erschien dem Jakob wiederum, als er aus Paddan-Aram kam, und segnete ihn.

10 Und Gott sprach zu ihm: Dein Name ist Jakob; dein Name soll hinfort nicht Jakob heißen, sondern Israel soll dein Name sein. Und er gab ihm den Namen Israel.

11 Und Gott sprach zu ihm: Ich bin Gott, (El) der Allmächtige, sei fruchtbar und mehre dich; eine Nation und ein Haufe von Nationen soll aus dir werden, und Könige sollen aus deinen Lenden hervorkommen.

12 Und das Land, das ich Abraham und Isaak gegeben habe, dir will ich es geben, und deinem Samen nach dir will ich das Land geben.

13 Und Gott fuhr von ihm auf an dem Orte, wo er mit ihm geredet hatte.

14 Und Jakob richtete ein Denkmal auf an dem Orte, wo er mit ihm geredet hatte, ein Denkmal von Stein, und spendete darauf ein Trankopfer und goß Öl darauf.

15 Und Jakob gab dem Orte, woselbst Gott mit ihm geredet hatte, den Namen Bethel.

16 Und sie brachen auf von Bethel. Und es war noch eine Strecke Landes, um nach Ephrath zu kommen, da gebar ahel, und es wurde ihr schwer bei ihrem Gebären.

17 Und es geschah, als es ihr schwer wurde bei ihrem Gebären, da sprach die Hebamme zu ihr: Fürchte dich nicht, denn auch dieser ist dir ein Sohn!

18 Und es geschah, als ihre Seele ausging (denn sie starb), da gab sie ihm den Namen Benoni; (Sohn meiner Not) sein Vater aber nannte ihn Benjamin. (Sohn der echten, d. h. des Glückes)

19 Und ahel starb und wurde begraben an dem Wege nach Ephrath, das ist Bethlehem.

20 Und Jakob richtete über ihrem Grabe ein Denkmal auf, das ist das Grabmal ahels bis auf diesen Tag.

21 Und Israel brach auf und schlug sein Zelt auf jenseits von Migdal-Heder. (Herdenturm)

22 Und es geschah, als Israel in jenem Lande wohnte, da ging uben hin und lag bei Bilha, dem Kebsweibe seines Vaters. Und Israel hörte es. Und der Söhne Jakobs waren zwölf.

23 Die Söhne Leas: uben, der Erstgeborene Jakobs, und Simeon und Levi und Juda und Issaschar und Sebulon.

24 Die Söhne ahels: Joseph und Benjamin.

25 Die Söhne Bilhas, der Magd ahels: Dan und Naphtali.

26 Und die Söhne Silpas, der Magd Leas: Gad und Aser. Das sind die Söhne Jakobs, welche ihm in Paddan-Aram geboren wurden.

27 Und Jakob kam zu seinem Vater Isaak nach Mamre, nach Kirjath-Arba, das ist Hebron, woselbst Abraham und Isaak als Fremdlinge geweilt hatten.

28 Und die Tage Isaaks waren 180 Jahre.

29 Und Isaak verschied und starb, und wurde versammelt zu seinen Völkern, alt und der Tage satt. Und Esau und Jakob, seine Söhne, begruben ihn.

4593. 'And Rachel died, and was buried on the way to Ephrath' means the end of the initial affection for interior truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'dying' as ceasing to be as previously, dealt with in 494, and so the end; from the representation of 'Rachel' as the affection for interior truth, dealt with in 3758, 3782, 3793, 3819; from the meaning of 'being buried' as the casting aside of the initial state and the raising up of a new one, dealt with in 2916, 2917, 3256; and from the meaning of 'Ephrath' as the spiritual of the celestial in the initial state, dealt with in 4585. From this it is evident that 'Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath' means the end of the initial affection for interior truth and the raising up of a new one meant by 'Bethlehem', dealt with below in the next paragraph.

[2] In the genuine sense 'Rachel died and was buried on the way to Ephrath' means that an inherited characteristic was cast out for ever by means of temptations, that characteristic being the human affection for interior truth, cast out by the Divine affection. This also explains why this son was called Ben-oni, or Son of pain, by his mother, but Benjamin, or Son of the right hand, by his father. Present in the human affection derived from the mother there is a hereditary characteristic that holds evil within it, whereas in the Divine affection nothing but good is present. In the human affection there is a self-concern which has the glory of self and the world as the end in view, but in the Divine affection a self-concern exists that it should effect the salvation of the human race, as accords with the Lord's words in John,

I pray for those whom You have given Me, for all things that are Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine; but I am glorified in them; that they may all be one, as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they may also be one in Us. The glory which You have given Me I have given to them that they may be one even as We are one, I in them and You in Me. John 17:9-10, 21-23.

3758. Genesis 29

1. And Jacob lifted up his feet and went to the land of the sons of the east.

2. And he saw, and behold, a well in the field, and behold, three droves of a flock there, lying nearby it; for out of that well they watered the droves; and there was a large stone over the mouth of the well.

3. And all the droves would be gathered there; and they would roll the stone from over the mouth of the well and water the flock; and they would put the stone back in its place over the mouth of the well.

4. And Jacob said to them, My brothers, where are you from? And they said, We are from Haran.

5. And he said to them, Do you know Laban the son of Nahor? And they said, We do.

6. And he said to them, Does he have peace? 1 And they said, [He has] peace; and behold, Rachel his daughter is coming with the flock.

7. And he said, Behold, it is still high day; it is not time for the cattle to be gathered together; water the flock, and go and pasture them.

8. And they said, We cannot until all the droves are gathered together, and they have rolled the stone from over the mouth of the well, and we water the flock.

9. While he was still speaking to them Rachel came with the flock which was her father's, for she was a shepherdess.

10. And so it was, when Jacob saw Rachel the daughter of Laban his mother's brother, and the flock of Laban his mother's brother, that Jacob came near and rolled the stone from over the mouth of the well, and watered the flock of Laban his mother's brother.

11. And Jacob kissed Rachel, and lifted up his voice and wept.

12. And Jacob told Rachel that he was her father's brother, and that he was Rebekah's son; and she ran and told her father.

13. And so it was, when Laban heard the news about Jacob his sister's son, that he ran to meet him, and embraced him, and kissed him, and brought him to his house. And he told Laban all these things.

14. And Laban said to him, Surely you are my bone and my flesh. And he dwelt with him for a full month.

15. And Laban said to Jacob, Because you are my brother should you serve me for nothing? Tell me, what shall your reward be?

16. And Laban had two daughters; the name of the elder was Leah, and the name of the younger Rachel.

17. And Leah's eyes were weak; and Rachel was beautiful in form and beautiful in appearance.

18. And Jacob loved Rachel and said, I will serve you seven years for Rachel your younger daughter.

19. And Laban said, It is better for me to give her to you than to give her to another man; remain with me.

20. And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they were in his eyes like a few days, because of his love for her.

21. And Jacob said to Laban, Give me my wife, for my days are completed, and I will go [in] to her.

22. And Laban gathered together all the men of the place and made a feast.

23. And so it was in the evening, that he took Leah his daughter and brought her to him; and he came [in] to her.

24. And Laban gave to her Zilpah his servant-girl - to Leah his daughter to be her servant-girl.

25. And so it was in the morning, that behold it was Leah. And he said to Laban, What is this you have done to me? Was it not for Rachel that I served with you? And why have you cheated me?

26. And Laban said, It is not done that way in our place, to give the younger before the firstborn.

27. Complete this week, and we will give you this one also for the service which you render with me for another seven years.

28. And Jacob did so and completed this week, and he gave him Rachel his daughter for his wife.

29. And Laban gave to Rachel his daughter Bilhah his servant-girl, to her to be a servant-girl.

30. And he came [in] also to Rachel, and he loved Rachel also, more than Leah; and he served with him yet another seven years.

31. And Jehovah saw that Leah was hated, and He opened her womb; and Rachel was barren.

32. And Leah conceived and bore a son; and she called his name Reuben, for she said, Because Jehovah has seen my affliction; for now my husband (vir) will love me.

33. And she conceived again and bore a son, and she said, For Jehovah has heard that I was hated and has given me this one also; and she called his name Simeon.

34. And she conceived again and bore a son, and she said, Now this time my husband (vir) will cling to me, because I have borne him three sons; therefore she called his name Levi.

35. And she conceived again and bore a son, and she said, This time I will confess Jehovah; therefore she called his name Judah. And she left off bearing.

CONTENTS

In this chapter 'Jacob' refers, in the internal sense, to the Lord's Natural, the subject being how the Good of Truth in His Natural was joined to a kindred good from a Divine source, meant by 'Laban'. First these were so joined through the affection for external truth, meant by 'Leah', and then through the affection for internal truth, meant by 'Rachel'.
