Esodo 2

Სწავლა

   

1 OR un uomo della famiglia di Levi andò, e prese per moglie una figliuola di Levi.

2 E quella donna concepette, e partorì un figliuolo; e, veggendolo bello, lo tenne nascosto lo spazio di tre mesi.

3 Ma non potendo più tenerlo nascosto, ella prese una cestella fatta di giunchi, e la impiastrò di bitume e di pece; e, postovi dentro il fanciullo, la mise nella giuncaia, in su la riva del fiume.

4 E la sorella del fanciullo se ne stava da lungi, per saper ciò che gli avverrebbe.

5 Or la figliuola di Faraone discese per bagnarsi nel fiume; e le sue donzelle passeggiavano su la riva del fiume; ed ella vide quella cestella per mezzo la giuncaia, e mandò una sua servente, e la fece torre.

6 E apertala vide quel bambino; ed ecco, il fanciullo piangeva; ed ella ne ebbe compassione, e disse: Questo fanciullo è de’ figliuoli degli Ebrei.

7 E la sorella di esso disse alla figliuola di Faraone: Andrò io a chiamarti una balia d’infra le donne Ebree, che ti allatti questo fanciullo?

8 E la figliuola di Faraone le disse: Va’. E la fanciulla andò, e chiamò la madre del fanciullo.

9 E la figliuola di Faraone disse: Portane questo fanciullo, e allattamelo, ed io ti darò il tuo salario. E quella donna prese il fanciullo, e lo allattò.

10 E quando il fanciullo fu grande, ella lo menò alla figliuola di Faraone, ed esso le fu in luogo di figliuolo, ed ella gli pose nome Mosè; perciocchè, disse ella, io lo ho tratto fuor delle acque.

11 Or in quel tempo, essendo Mosè già divenuto grande, avvenne ch’egli uscì fuori a’ suoi fratelli, e vide le lor gravezze; e vide un Egizio che percuoteva un uomo Ebreo de’ suoi fratelli.

12 E avendo riguardato qua e là, e veduto, che non v’era nissuno, percosse quell’Egizio, e lo nascose nel sabbione.

13 E il giorno seguente egli uscì ancora fuori; ed ecco, due uomini Ebrei contendevano insieme. Ed egli disse a colui che avea il torto: Perchè percuoti il tuo prossimo?

14 E colui gli rispose: Chi ti ha costituito principe e giudice sopra noi? pensi tu di uccider me, come uccidesti quell’Egizio? E Mosè temette, e disse: Per certo la cosa si è saputa.

15 E Faraone udì questa cosa, e cercò Mosè per ucciderlo; ma Mosè se ne fuggì dal cospetto di Faraone, e si fermò nel paese di Madian, ove si pose a sedere presso ad un pozzo.

16 Or il sacerdote di Madian avea sette figliuole; le quali vennero, e attinsero dell’acqua, ed empierono gli abbeveratoi, per abbeverar le gregge del lor padre.

17 E i pastori sopraggiunsero, e scacciarono le gregge; ma Mosè si levò, e soccorse quelle fanciulle, e abbeverò le lor gregge.

18 Ed elleno se ne vennero a Reuel, lor padre; ed egli disse loro: Perchè siete voi oggi così presto ritornate?

19 Ed elleno risposero: Un uomo Egizio ci ha riscosse dalle mani de’ pastori, e anche ci ha attinto dell’acqua abbondantemente, ed ha abbeverate le gregge.

20 Ed egli disse alla sue figliuole: E dov’è egli? perchè avete lasciato là quell’uomo? chiamatelo, che prenda cibo.

21 E Mosè acconsentì di dimorar con quell’uomo: ed egli diede a Mosè Sippora, sua figliuola.

22 Ed ella partorì un figliuolo, ed egli gli pose nome Ghersom; perciocchè disse: Io sono stato forestiere in paese strano.

23 Or avvenne che in quel mezzo tempo, che fu lungo, il re di Egitto morì; e i figliuoli d’Israele sospirarono per la servitù, e gridarono; e le lor grida, che gittarono per la servitù, salirono a Dio.

24 E Iddio intese i loro stridi, e si ricordò del suo patto con Abrahamo, con Isacco, e con Giacobbe.

25 E Iddio riguardò a’ figliuoli d’Israele, e ne prese conoscenza.

   


To many Protestant and Evangelical Italians, the Bibles translated by Giovanni Diodati are an important part of their history. Diodati’s first Italian Bible edition was printed in 1607, and his second in 1641. He died in 1649. Throughout the 1800s two editions of Diodati’s text were printed by the British Foreign Bible Society. This is the more recent 1894 edition, translated by Claudiana.

2913. 'And spoke to the sons of Heth, saying' means those with whom a new spiritual Church was to exist. This becomes clear from the meaning of 'Heth' and of Hittite. Many were the nations inhabiting the land of Canaan who are mentioned one by one in various places in the Word, among them the Hittites, see Genesis 15:20; Exodus 3:8, 17; 13:5; 23:23; Deuteronomy 7:1; 20:17; Joshua 3:10; 11:1, 3; 12:8; 24:11; 1 Kings 9:20; and elsewhere. Most of them belonged to the Ancient Church which was spread through many lands, including the land of Canaan, see 1238, 2385. All who belonged to that Church acknowledged charity as the chief thing, and everything they taught was about charity or life. People who cultivated teachings about faith were called Canaanites and were separate from the rest of the inhabitants in the land of Canaan, Numbers 13:29 - see 1062, 1063, 1076.

[2] The Hittites belonged among those in the land of Canaan who were more acceptable. This is also made clear by the fact that Abraham, and subsequently Isaac and Jacob, dwelt among them and had a burial-place there, and also by the fact that they treated Abraham with greatest respect, as is quite clear from what is recorded about them in this chapter, especially verses 5-6, 10-11, 14-15. Since they were an upright nation they therefore represent and mean the spiritual Church, or the truth of the Church. But it happened that like all the others who belonged to the Ancient Church the Hittites fell away in the course of time from charity or good that goes with faith; and this explains why later on they mean the falsity of the Church, as in Ezekiel 16:3, 45, and elsewhere. Yet the Hittites did belong among those who were more honourable, as may be seen from the fact that David had Hittites with him, such as Ahimelech, 1 Samuel 26:6, and Uriah, who was a Hittite, 2 Samuel 11:3, 6, 17, 21 - by whose wife Bathsheba David begot Solomon, 2 Samuel 12:24. 'Heth' means exterior cognitions that have regard to life and which constitute the external truths of the spiritual Church, 1 see 1203.

[3] The subject in the present verse is a new Church which the Lord establishes when the previous one breathes its last, and in the verses which follow the subject is the reception of faith among those people. The subject is not some particular Church among the sons of Heth but in general the re-establishment by the Lord of a spiritual Church after its predecessor fades away and approaches its end. The sons of Heth are simply those who represent and carry a spiritual meaning. Please see what has been stated already about Churches in the following places:

In course of time a Church goes into decline and decay, 494, 501, 1327, 2422.

It departs from charity, and brings forth evils and falsities, 1834, 1835.

At that point the Church is said to be vastated and made desolate, 407-411, 2243.

The Church is established among gentiles; the reason why, 1366.

Within a Church undergoing vastation something of the Church is always preserved as a nucleus, 468, 637, 931, 2422.

If the Church did not exist in the world the human race would perish, ibid.

The Church is like the heart and lungs in that vast body, of which every member of the human race is a part, 637, 931, 2054, 2853.

The nature of the spiritual Church, 765, 2669.

Charity constitutes the Church, not faith separated from charity, 809, 916.

If all possessed charity the Church would be one even though they differ in matters of doctrine and in forms of worship, 1285, 1316, 1798, 1799, 1834, 1844, 2385.

All people on earth who belong to the Lord's Church, though they are scattered throughout the entire world, still so to speak make a single whole, as is the case in heaven, 2853.

Every Church is internal and external, and both together constitute a single Church, 409, 1083, 1098, 1100, 1242.

The external Church is valueless if there is no internal Church, 1795.

The Church is compared to the rise and the setting of the sun, to the seasons of the year, and also to the periods of the day, 1837.

The Last Judgement is the final period of the Church, 900, 931, 1850, 2117, 2118.
