1 Mosebok 5

Სწავლა

   

1 Detta är stycket om Adams släkt. När Gud skapade människor, gjorde han dem lika Gud.

2 Till man och kvinna skapade han dem; och han välsignade dem och gav dem namnet människa, när de blevo skapade.

3 När Adam var ett hundra trettio år gammal, födde han en son som var honom lik, hans avbild, och gav honom namnet Set.

4 Och sedan Adam hade fött Set, levde han åtta hundra år och födde söner och döttrar.

5 Alltså blev Adams hela levnadsålder nio hundra trettio år; därefter dog han.

6 När Set var ett hundra fem år gammal, födde han Enos.

7 Och sedan Set hade fött Enos, levde han åtta hundra sju år och födde söner och döttrar.

8 Alltså blev Sets hela ålder nio hundra tolv år; därefter dog han.

9 När Enos var nittio år gammal, födde han Kenan.

10 Och sedan Enos hade fött Kenan, levde han åtta hundra femton år och födde söner och döttrar.

11 Alltså blev Enos' hela ålder nio hundra fem år; därefter dog han.

12 När Kenan var sjuttio år gammal, födde han Mahalalel.

13 Och sedan Kenan fött Mahalalel, levde han åtta hundra fyrtio år och födde söner och döttrar.

14 Alltså blev Kenans hela ålder nio hundra tio år; därefter dog han.

15 När Mahalalel var sextiofem år gammal, födde han Jered.

16 Och sedan Mahalalel hade fött Jered, levde han åtta hundra trettio år och födde söner och döttrar.

17 Alltså blev Mahalalels hela ålder åtta hundra nittiofem år; därefter dog han.

18 När Jered var ett hundra sextiotvå år gammal, födde han Hanok.

19 Och sedan Jered hade fött Hanok, levde han åtta hundra år och födde söner och döttrar.

20 Alltså blev Jereds hela ålder nio hundra sextiotvå år; därefter dog han.

21 När Hanok var sextiofem år gammal, födde han Metusela.

22 Och Hanok vandrade i umgängelse med Gud i tre hundra år, sedan han hade fött Metusela, och han födde söner och döttrar.

23 Alltså blev Hanoks hela ålder tre hundra sextiofem år.

24 Sedan Hanok så hade vandrat i umgängelse med Gud, såg man honom icke mer, ty Gud tog honom bort.

25 När Metusela var ett hundra åttiosju år gammal, födde han Lemek.

26 Och sedan Metusela hade fött Lemek, levde han sju hundra åttiotvå år och födde söner och döttrar.

27 Alltså blev Metuselas hela ålder nio hundra sextionio år; därefter dog han.

28 När Lemek var ett hundra åttiotvå år gammal, födde han en son.

29 Och han gav honom namnet Noa, i det han sade: »Denne skall trösta oss vid vårt arbete och våra händers möda, när vi bruka jorden, som HERREN har förbannat.»

30 Och sedan Lemek hade fött Noa, levde han fem hundra nittiofem år och födde söner och döttrar.

31 Alltså blev Lemeks hela ålder sju hundra sjuttiosju år; därefter dog han.

32 När Noa var fem hundra år gammal, födde han Sem, Ham och Jafet.

2643. 'Who would have said to Abraham, Sarah will suckle sons?' means that by His own power the Lord implanted the Human within the Divine. This is clear from the representation of 'Abraham' and also of 'Sarah', and from the meaning of 'suckling', and of 'sons'. It has been shown already that 'Abraham' represents Divine Good and 'Sarah' Divine Truth. 'Milk' means that which is spiritual from a celestial origin, that is, truth deriving from good, see 2184, so that 'suckling' means implanting that truth; And 'sons' means truths, here truths that exist in the Rational, as is clear from the meaning of 'sons', 489-491, 533. The reason why in the internal sense the words under consideration mean that the Lord by His own power implanted the Human within the Divine is that Divine Truth is one and the same as the Divine Human, and when in reference to this it is said 'to suckle sons for Abraham' the meaning is that He implanted the Human within the Divine; and as it was the Human He implanted, He did so by His own power. But scarcely any clearer and more intelligible explanation of these matters is possible. To say more would obscure still further what is meant; for these are Divine matters, which can be presented to angels alone by means of celestial and spiritual things. If presented to men in some more exalted manner those matters would fall into the material and bodily ideas which men possess.

[2] What is more, it should be recognized that it is the nature of the Lord's Divine Rational when it was first born that is being described by these words, 'God has made laughter for me; everyone that hears will laugh for me; and she said, Who would have said to Abraham, Sarah will suckle sons?' For this was in keeping with an ancient custom that when an infant was born it was given a name which served to mean the state; and at the same time a description of that state was added, as when Cain was born to Eve and Adam, Genesis 4:1, and when Seth was born to the same, Genesis 4:25; and as when Noah was born to Lamech, Genesis 5:29, Esau and Jacob to Isaac, Genesis 25:25-26, the twelve sons to Jacob, Genesis 29:32-35; 30:6, 8, 11, 13, 18, 20, 24; 35:18, Perez and Zerah to Tamar, Genesis 38:29-30, Manasseh and Ephraim to Joseph, Genesis 41:51-52, and Gershom and Eliezer to Moses, Exodus 2:22; 18:4. What all these represent, and what they mean in the internal sense, was embodied in the descriptions added to the names that were given. The same is the case here with what Isaac represents and means. What this name embodies is evident to some small extent from this brief explanation that has been given, but deeper arcana are nevertheless concealed there since they are Divine matters, which no sentences or phrases can be formed to express.

Isaiah 29:12-24

Სწავლა

      

12 and the book is delivered to one who is not educated, saying, "Read this, please;" and he says, "I can't read."

13 The Lord said, "Because this people draws near with their mouth and with their lips to honor me, but they have removed their heart far from me, and their fear of me is a commandment of men which has been taught;

14 therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men will perish, and the understanding of their prudent men will be hidden."

15 Woe to those who deeply hide their counsel from Yahweh, and whose works are in the dark, and who say, "Who sees us?" and "Who knows us?"

16 You turn things upside down! Should the potter be thought to be like clay; that the thing made should say about him who made it, "He didn't make me;" or the thing formed say of him who formed it, "He has no understanding?"

17 Isn't it yet a very little while, and Lebanon will be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitful field will be regarded as a forest?

18 In that day, the deaf will hear the words of the book, and the eyes of the blind will see out of obscurity and out of darkness.

19 The humble also will increase their joy in Yahweh, and the poor among men will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

20 For the ruthless is brought to nothing, and the scoffer ceases, and all those who are alert to do evil are cut off--

21 who cause a person to be indicted by a word, and lay a snare for the arbiter in the gate, and who deprive the innocent of justice with false testimony.

22 Therefore thus says Yahweh, who redeemed Abraham, concerning the house of Jacob: "Jacob shall no longer be ashamed, neither shall his face grow pale.

23 But when he sees his children, the work of my hands, in the midst of him, they will sanctify my name. Yes, they will sanctify the Holy One of Jacob, and will stand in awe of the God of Israel.

24 They also who err in spirit will come to understanding, and those who grumble will receive instruction."
