Exodo 13

Სწავლა

   

1 At ang Panginoon ay nagsalita kay Moises, na sinasabi,

2 Pakabanalin mo sa akin ang lahat ng mga panganay, anomang nagbubukas ng bahay-bata sa mga anak ni Israel: maging sa tao at maging sa hayop ay akin.

3 At sinabi ni Moises sa bayan, Alalahanin ninyo ang araw na ito na inialis ninyo sa Egipto, sa bahay ng pagkaalipin; sapagka't sa pamamagitan ng lakas ng kamay ay hinango kayo ng Panginoon sa dakong ito, wala sinomang kakain ng tinapay na may lebadura.

4 Sa araw na ito ay umaalis kayo ng buwan ng Abib.

5 At mangyayari, na pagkadala sa iyo ng Panginoon sa lupain ng Cananeo, at ng Hetheo, at ng Amorrheo, at ng Hebreo, at ng Jebuseo, na kaniyang isinumpa sa iyong mga magulang, na ibibigay sa iyo, na lupang binubukalan ng gatas at pulot ay iyong ipangingilin ang paglilingkod na ito sa buwang ito.

6 Pitong araw na kakain ka ng tinapay na walang lebadura, at sa ikapitong araw ay magiging isang kapistahan sa Panginoon.

7 Tinapay na walang lebadura ang kakanin sa loob ng pitong araw, at huwag makakakita sa iyo, ng tinapay na may lebadura, ni makakakita ng lebadura sa iyo, sa lahat ng iyong mga hangganan.

8 At sasaysayin mo sa iyong anak sa araw na yaon, na iyong sasabihin: Dahil sa ginawa ng Panginoon sa akin nang ako'y umalis sa Egipto.

9 At sa iyo'y magiging pinakatanda sa ibabaw ng iyong kamay, at pinakaalaala sa pagitan ng iyong mga mata, upang ang kautusan ng Panginoon ay sumaiyong bibig: sapagka't sa pamamagitan ng malakas na kamay, ay inalis ka ng Panginoon sa Egipto.

10 Isasagawa mo nga ang palatuntunang ito sa kapanahunan nito taon taon.

11 At mangyayari, pagkadala sa iyo ng Panginoon sa lupain ng Cananeo, gaya ng isinumpa sa iyo at sa iyong mga magulang, at pagkabigay niyaon sa iyo,

12 Ay ihihiwalay mo para sa Panginoon yaong lahat na nagbubukas ng bahay-bata, at bawa't panganay na mayroon ka na mula sa hayop; ang mga lalake, ay sa Panginoon.

13 At bawa't panganay sa asno ay tutubusin mo ng isang kordero; at kung hindi mo tutubusin, ay iyo ngang babaliin ang kaniyang leeg: at lahat ng mga panganay na lalake sa iyong mga anak ay iyong tutubusin.

14 At mangyayari, na pagtatanong sa iyo ng iyong anak sa panahong darating, na sasabihin, Ano ito? na iyong sasabihin sa kaniya: Sa pamamagitan ng lakas ng kamay ay inilabas tayo ng Panginoon sa Egipto, sa bahay ng pagkaalipin.

15 At nangyari, nang magmatigas si Faraon na hindi kami tulutang yumaon, ay pinatay ng Panginoon ang lahat ng mga panganay sa lupain ng Egipto, ang panganay ng tao at gayon din ang panganay ng hayop: kaya't aking inihahain sa Panginoon ang lahat ng nagbubukas ng bahay-bata na mga lalake; nguni't lahat ng panganay ng aking anak ay aking tinutubos.

16 At magiging pinakatanda sa iyong kamay, at pinakaalaala sa pagitan ng iyong mga mata: sapagka't sa pamamagitan ng lakas ng kamay ay inilabas tayo ng Panginoon sa Egipto.

17 At nangyari, nang tulutan ni Faraon na ang bayan ay yumaon, na hindi sila pinatnubayan ng Dios sa daang patungo sa lupain ng mga Filisteo, bagaman malapit; sapagka't sinabi ng Dios, Baka sakaling ang bayan ay magsisi pagkakita ng pagbabaka, at magsipagbalik sa Egipto:

18 Kundi pinatnubayan ng Dios ang bayan sa palibot, sa daang patungo sa ilang sa tabi ng Dagat na Mapula: at ang mga anak ni Israel ay sumampang nangakasakbat mula sa lupain ng Egipto.

19 At dinala ni Moises ang mga buto ni Jose: sapagka't kaniyang ipinanumpang mahigpit sa mga anak ni Israel, na sinasabi, Tunay na dadalawin kayo ng Dios; at inyong isasampa ang aking mga buto mula rito na kasama ninyo.

20 At sila'y naglakbay mula sa Succoth, at humantong sa Etham, sa hangganan ng ilang.

21 At ang Panginoon ay nangunguna sa kanila sa araw, sa isang haliging ulap, upang patnubayan sila sa daan; at sa gabi, ay sa isang haliging apoy, upang tanglawan sila; upang sila'y makapaglakad sa araw at sa gabi.

22 Ang haliging ulap sa araw at ang haliging apoy sa gabi ay hindi humihiwalay sa harapan ng bayan.

8093. 'That God did not lead them by the way of the land of the Philistines' means that the Divine saw to it that they should not pass on to the truth of faith that does not spring from good. This is clear from the meaning of 'God did not lead them by the way' as the Divine saw to it that they should not pass on to, for 'leading', when done by God, means providence, and 'the way' means truth, 627, 2333, in this instance passing on to it; and from the representation of 'the Philistines' as those who have a knowledge of the cognitions of faith but do not lead a life of charity, dealt with in 1197, 1198, 3412, 3413, thus those who possess the truth of faith that does not spring from good. The fact that 'the Philistines' and 'the land of the Philistines' have this meaning may be recognized from places in the Word where they are mentioned, in particular in Jeremiah 47:1-end, where they are described, also in Joel 3:5-6, as well as from the historical accounts in the Word referring to wars between the children of Israel and the Philistines, to the subjection of the children of Israel by the Philistines and then of the Philistines by the children of Israel. By 'the Philistines' in these places those who champion separated faith are represented, that is, people for whom the knowledge of cognitions of faith is all-important but not a life led in accordance with that knowledge, consequently people who teach and believe that a person is saved by faith alone.

[2] This particular belief about faith alone or separated faith is not new or something that belongs solely to the present time. It had come to exist in the ancient Churches, growing ever stronger along with evil in life. It is also described in various places in the Word, but by means of names, by Cain' first, in that he killed his brother Abel, 337, 340, 1179. In the internal representative sense of that story 'Cain' is that kind of faith, while 'Abel' is charity. Such faith is also described by 'Ham', when cursed by his father, 1062, 1063; after that by 'Reuben', in that he went up to his father's bed, 3870, 4601, and by 'Simeon and Levi', in that they killed Hamor and the men of Shechem and were for that reason cursed by their father, 3870, 6352. That faith is also described by 'the Egyptians' and by 'their firstborn', in that the latter were killed, 7766, 7778, and the former drowned in the Sea Suph. It is described too by 'the Philistines', 3412, 3413, and also by 'Tyre and Sidon', in various places in the Prophets; there a knowledge of the cognitions of faith is meant by 'the Philistines', and the cognitions themselves, interior and exterior, by 'Tyre and Sidon'. Lastly such faith is represented by 'Peter' when he denied the Lord three times, 6000, 6073(end). But see what has been shown already regarding this faith, in 36, 379, 389, 916, 1017, 1076, 1077, 1162, 1176, 1798, 1799, 1834, 1844, 2049, 2116, 2228, 2231, 2261, 2343, 2349, 2364, 2383, 2385, 2401, 2435, 2982, 3146, 3242, 3325, 3412, 3413, 3416, 3427, 3773, 4663, 4672, 4673, 4683, 4721, 4730, 4766, 4783, 4925, 5351, 5820, 5826, 6269, 6272, 6273, 6348, 6353, 7039, 7097, 7127, 7317, 7502, 7545, 7623-7627, 7724, 7779, 7790, 7950.

Arcana Coelestia # 2261

2261. 'If I find in Sodom fifty righteous persons in the midst of the city' means if truths are full of goods. This is clear from the meaning of 'fifty' as that which is full, and from the meaning of 'the midst of the city' as that which is present inwardly, or within truth, dealt with above in 2252, which see since the same words occur there. It may be assumed that a person is certain to be saved if truths are full of goods. But it should be recognized that very few truths exist with man; and if they do, that they have no life unless there are goods within them; and if they have goods within them, that he is saved, but on account of mercy. For as has been stated, very few truths reside with a person, and the goods contained within them receive their character from the truths and from that person's life.

[2] Regarded in themselves truths do not confer life; but goods do so. Truths are simply the recipients of life, that is, of good. Nobody is ever able to say therefore that he can be saved by means of truths or as is commonly asserted, by faith alone - not, that is, unless within the truths, which are part of the faith, good is present. And this good which must exist within them must be the good that flows from charity. This explains why in the internal sense faith itself is nothing else than charity, as shown above in 2231. When people say that the acknowledgement of truth is the faith that saves, it should be recognized that no acknowledgement can possibly exist with people who lead lives immersed in things contrary to charity, only some kind of persuasion which has the life of self-love or of the love of the world allied to it, so that the acknowledgement which they speak of does not have within it the life of the faith which is that of charity. The worst people of all, acting from self-love or from love of the world, that is, acting for the sake of excelling others in what are called intelligence and wisdom, and so acting for the sake of earning exalted positions, reputation, and gain, have the ability to grasp the truths of faith and to confirm them in many ways; but with them those truths are nevertheless dead. The life of truth and so of faith comes solely from the Lord, who is Life itself.

[3] The Lord's life is mercy, which is that of love towards the whole human race. Those people cannot possibly be drawing on the life that is the Lord's who, although they profess the truths of faith, despise others in comparison with themselves, and who, where their self-love and love of the world are affected, harbour hatred towards the neighbour and are delighted when he experiences loss of wealth, position, reputation, and life. But the position with the truths of faith is that it is by means of them that one is regenerated, for they are the actual vessels for receiving good. As are the truths therefore, also the goods within those truths, and the combination of those truths and goods and from this their capacity to be perfected in the next life, so is the state of blessedness and happiness of that person after death.
