Ezekiel 15

공부

   

1 And the word of Jehovah came unto me, saying,

2 Son of man, what is the wood of the vine more than any wood, the vine-branch, which is among the trees of the forest?

3 Shall wood be taken thereof to do any work? or will [men] take a pin of it to hang any vessel thereon?

4 Behold, it is given to the fire for fuel: the fire consumeth both the ends of it, and the midst of it is burned; is it fit for [any] work?

5 Behold, when it was whole, it was used for no work; how much less when the fire hath consumed it, and it is burned, should it yet be used for any work?

6 Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: As the wood of the vine among the trees of the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

7 And I will set my face against them: they shall go forth from [one] fire, and [another] fire shall devour them; and ye shall know that I [am] Jehovah when I set my face against them.

8 And I will make the land a desolation, because they have wrought unfaithfulness, saith the Lord Jehovah.

Sons of the stranger

  

'Sons of the stranger' signify counterfeit truths, or falsities. 'Our sons' signify the doctrines of truth, and 'our daughters,' the doctrines of good, as in Psalm 144:11-12.

517. And the rest were afraid and gave glory to the God of heaven. This symbolically means that when they saw the destruction of those others, people who had joined some goods of charity to their faith acknowledged the Lord and were set apart.

The rest here mean people who had joined some goods of charity to their faith. Their being terrified symbolizes their fear on seeing the destruction of those others. To give glory to the God of heaven means, symbolically, to acknowledge the Lord as God of heaven and earth - to give glory symbolizing to acknowledge and worship, and the God of heaven meaning the Lord, because He is God of heaven and earth (Matthew 28:18).

Because these people were moved by their fear to acknowledge the Lord, they were set apart in order that they might be examined as to the basis on which they did goods, whether they did so on their own or from the Lord. People who do goods on their own are all those who do not refrain from evils as being sins, that is, who do not live according to the Ten Commandments, whereas people who do them from the Lord are those who do refrain from evils as being sins and live according to the Ten Commandments.
