Hosea 2

Სწავლა

   

1 Saget euren Brüdern, sie sind mein Volk; und zu eurer Schwester, sie sei in Gnaden.

2 Sprechet das Urteil über eure Mutter, sie sei nicht mein Weib, und ich will sie nicht haben. Heißt sie ihre Hurerei von ihrem Angesichte wegtun und ihre Ehebrecherei von ihren Brüsten,

3 auf daß ich sie nicht nackend ausziehe und darstelle, wie sie war, da sie geboren ward, und ich sie nicht mache wie eine Wüste und wie ein dürres Land, daß ich sie nicht Durst sterben lasse,

4 und mich ihrer Kinder nicht erbarme; denn sie sind Hurenkinder,

5 und ihre Mutter ist eine Hure, und die sie getragen hat, hält sich schändlich und spricht: Ich will meinen Buhlen nachlaufen, die mir geben Brot, Wasser, Wolle, Flachs, Öl und Trinken.

6 Darum siehe, ich will deinen Weg mit Dornen vermachen und eine Wand davor ziehen, daß sie ihren Steig nicht finden soll,

7 und wenn sie ihren Buhlen nachläuft, daß sie die nicht ergreifen, und wenn sie die suchet, nicht finden könne und sagen müsse: Ich will wiederum zu meinem vorigen Manne gehen, da mir besser war, denn mir jetzt ist.

8 Denn sie will nicht wissen, daß ich es sei, der ihr gibt Korn, Most, Öl und ihr viel Silber und Gold gegeben habe, das sie haben Baal zu Ehren gebraucht.

9 Darum will ich mein Korn und Most wieder nehmen zu seiner Zeit und meine Wolle und Flachs entwenden, damit sie ihre Scham bedecket.

10 Nun will ich ihre Schande aufdecken vor den Augen ihrer Buhlen, und niemand soll sie von meiner Hand erretten.

11 Und ich will's ein Ende machen mit allen ihren Freuden, Festen, Neumonden, Sabbaten und allen ihren Feiertagen.

12 Ich will ihre Weinstöcke und Feigenbäume wüst machen, weil sie sagt: Das ist mein Lohn, den mir meine Buhlen geben. Ich will einen Wald daraus machen, daß es die wilden Tiere fressen sollen.

13 Also will ich heimsuchen über sie die Tage Baalim, denen sie Räuchopfer tut, und schmückt sich mit Stirnspangen und Halsbändern und läuft ihren Buhlen nach und vergißt mein, spricht der HERR.

14 Darum siehe, ich will sie locken und will sie in eine Wüste führen und freundlich mit ihr reden.

15 Da will ich ihr geben ihre Weinberge aus demselben Ort und das Tal Achor, die Hoffnung aufzutun. Und daselbst wird sie singen wie zur Zeit ihrer Jugend, da sie aus Ägyptenland zog.

16 Alsdann spricht der HERR, wirst du mich heißen mein Mann und mich nicht mehr mein Baal heißen.

17 Denn ich will die Namen der Baalim von ihrem Munde wegtun, daß man derselbigen Namen nicht mehr gedenken soll.

18 Und ich will zur selbigen Zeit ihnen einen Bund machen mit den Tieren auf dem Felde, mit den Vögeln unter dem Himmel und mit dem Gewürme auf Erden; und will Bogen, Schwert und Krieg vom Lande zerbrechen und will sie sicher wohnen lassen.

19 Ich will mich mit dir verloben in Ewigkeit; ich will mich mit dir vertrauen in Gerechtigkeit und Gericht, in Gnade und Barmherzigkeit;

20 ja, im Glauben will ich mich mit dir verloben; und du wirst den HERRN erkennen.

21 Zur selbigen Zeit, spricht der HERR, will ich erhören; ich will den Himmel erhören; und der Himmel soll die Erde erhören

22 und die Erde soll Korn, Most und Öl erhören; und dieselbigen sollen Jesreel erhören.

23 Und ich will mir sie auf Erden zum Samen behalten und mich erbarmen über die, so in Ungnaden war, und sagen zu dem, das nicht mein Volk war: Du bist mein Volk; und es wird sagen: Du bist mein Gott.

10155. 'And they will recognize that I am Jehovah their God' means perception that the Lord is the source of all good and all truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'recognizing' as understanding, believing, and perceiving, dealt with below. The reason why perceiving that the Lord is the source of all good and all truth is meant is that the names Jehovah and God are used, and the Lord is called Jehovah by virtue of good and God by virtue of truth, see 2586, 2769, 2807, 2822, 3921, 4287, 4402, 7010, 9167.

The reason why 'recognizing' means understanding, believing, and perceiving is that the word is used in reference both to the human power of understanding and to the power of will. When used in reference solely to the power of understanding it means understanding; when used in reference to the understanding and at the same time the will it means believing; and when used in reference solely to the will it means perceiving. With those therefore who merely know of something and as a result think about it, recognizing implies understanding. But with those who possess faith, recognizing implies believing, and with those who have love, recognizing implies perceiving.

[2] When however recognizing is coupled with understanding, seeing, or believing, 'recognizing' means perceiving; for understanding, seeing, and believing are connected with the understanding, consequently with truth, whereas perceiving is connected with the will, consequently with good, as in John,

Peter said, We have believed and recognized that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. John 6:69.

In the same gospel,

Jesus said, Believe the works, that you may recognize and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father. John 10:38.

In the same gospel,

Jesus said, If you recognize Me you recognize My Father, and from now on you recognize Him and have seen Him. John 14:7.

In the same gospel,

The Spirit of truth will be sent, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor recognizes Him. But you recognize Him, because He remains with you and will be in you. John 14:16-17.

In Mark,

Jesus spoke in parables, so that seeing they may see and not recognize. Mark 4:11-12.

In Jeremiah,

... that you may recognize and see that it is evil and bitter to depart from Jehovah your God. Jeremiah 2:19.

In the same prophet,

Let him who glories glory in this, to understand and to recognize Me, that I am Jehovah. Jeremiah 9:24.

In Hosea,

I will betroth you to Me in faith, and you will recognize Jehovah. Hosea 2:20.

[3] In these places 'recognizing' means perceiving, and perceiving comes about as a result of good, whereas understanding and seeing come about as a result of truth. For inwardly within themselves those in whom good or love is predominant perceive that something is so, whereas within themselves those in whom truth or faith is predominant see that it is such. Therefore perception that something is so exists among those who are in the Lord's celestial kingdom, but belief that it is so among those who are in the Lord's spiritual kingdom, see the places referred to in 9277, and what has been stated in 9992, 9995, 10105. And what perception is, see 125, 371, 483, 495, 503, 521, 536, 597, 607, 1121, 1384, 1387, 1398, 1442, 1919, 2144, 2515, 2831, 3528, 5121, 5145, 5227, 7680, 7977, 8780.

[4] In addition, since the proper meaning of 'recognizing' is perceiving as a result of good, reference is made in Deuteronomy 8:5 to recognizing from the heart; for 'from the heart' means from the good of love, 3883-3896, 7542, 9050, 9300, 9495. Therefore also doing good is referred to as recognizing Jehovah, Jeremiah 22:16.

From all this it is evident that 'they will recognize that I am Jehovah their God' means perception that the Lord is the source of all goodness and truth.

3478. To some there was also represented the tabernacle with the ark, for to those who, when they lived in the world, have taken very great delight in the Word such things are presented to them visually. So on the occasion referred to they saw the tabernacle with all its furnishings; that is to say, they saw its courts, its curtains round about, its veils inside, the golden altar or altar of incense, the table where the loaves were placed, the lampstand, and the mercy-seat with the cherubim. At the same time these upright spirits were allowed to perceive what each particular thing meant. It was the three heavens that were represented by the tabernacle, and the Lord Himself by the testimony inside the ark, above which there was the mercy-seat. And to the extent their sight was opened they saw within those objects more heavenly and Divine things, of which they had had no knowledge at all during their lifetime. And what was amazing, every least thing there, even every hook or ring, was representative. Consider merely the bread placed on the table. Within this as within a representative and symbol they perceived the food on which angels live, and so perceived celestial and spiritual love together with all the bliss and happiness that the angels enjoy. And within that love, also that bliss and happiness, they perceived the Lord Himself as the bread or manna from heaven. They perceived more besides from the shape, position, and number of the loaves, and from the gold which was around them, and from the lampstand which lit up those things and displayed further representations of things that are indescribable. The same was so with everything else in the tabernacle. From all this one might also see that the religious observances or the representatives of the Jewish Church contained all the arcana of the Christian Church, and also that those to whom the representatives and meaningful signs of the Old Testament Word are disclosed are able, while living in the world, to know and perceive the arcana which belong to the Lord's Church on earth. And when they enter the next life they are able to know and perceive the arcana of arcana which belong to the Lord's kingdom in heaven.
