1 Und Gott sprach zu Jakob: Mache dich auf, ziehe hinauf nach Bethel und wohne daselbst, und mache daselbst einen Altar dem Gott, (El) der dir erschienen ist, als du vor deinem Bruder Esau flohest.

2 Da sprach Jakob zu seinem Hause und zu allen, die bei ihm waren: Tut die fremden Götter hinweg, die in eurer Mitte sind, und reiniget euch und wechselt eure Kleider;

3 und wir wollen uns aufmachen und nach Bethel hinaufziehen, und ich werde daselbst einen Altar machen dem Gott, (El) der mir geantwortet hat am Tage meiner Drangsal und mit mir gewesen ist auf dem Wege, den ich gewandelt bin.

4 Und sie gaben Jakob alle fremden Götter, die in ihrer Hand, und die inge, die in ihren Ohren waren, (d. h. die sie als Amulette trugen) und Jakob vergrub sie unter der Terebinthe, die bei Sichem ist.

5 Und sie brachen auf. Und der Schrecken Gottes kam über die Städte, die rings um sie her waren, so daß sie den Söhnen Jakobs nicht nachjagten.

6 Und Jakob kam nach Lus, welches im Lande Kanaan liegt, das ist Bethel, er und alles Volk, das bei ihm war.

7 Und er baute daselbst einen Altar und nannte den Ort El-Bethel: (Gott des Gotteshauses) denn Gott hatte sich ihm daselbst geoffenbart, als er vor seinem Bruder floh.

8 Und Debora, die Amme ebekkas, starb, und sie wurde begraben unterhalb Bethel unter der Eiche; und man gab ihr den Namen Allon Bakuth. (Eiche des Weinens)

9 Und Gott erschien dem Jakob wiederum, als er aus Paddan-Aram kam, und segnete ihn.

10 Und Gott sprach zu ihm: Dein Name ist Jakob; dein Name soll hinfort nicht Jakob heißen, sondern Israel soll dein Name sein. Und er gab ihm den Namen Israel.

11 Und Gott sprach zu ihm: Ich bin Gott, (El) der Allmächtige, sei fruchtbar und mehre dich; eine Nation und ein Haufe von Nationen soll aus dir werden, und Könige sollen aus deinen Lenden hervorkommen.

12 Und das Land, das ich Abraham und Isaak gegeben habe, dir will ich es geben, und deinem Samen nach dir will ich das Land geben.

13 Und Gott fuhr von ihm auf an dem Orte, wo er mit ihm geredet hatte.

14 Und Jakob richtete ein Denkmal auf an dem Orte, wo er mit ihm geredet hatte, ein Denkmal von Stein, und spendete darauf ein Trankopfer und goß Öl darauf.

15 Und Jakob gab dem Orte, woselbst Gott mit ihm geredet hatte, den Namen Bethel.

16 Und sie brachen auf von Bethel. Und es war noch eine Strecke Landes, um nach Ephrath zu kommen, da gebar ahel, und es wurde ihr schwer bei ihrem Gebären.

17 Und es geschah, als es ihr schwer wurde bei ihrem Gebären, da sprach die Hebamme zu ihr: Fürchte dich nicht, denn auch dieser ist dir ein Sohn!

18 Und es geschah, als ihre Seele ausging (denn sie starb), da gab sie ihm den Namen Benoni; (Sohn meiner Not) sein Vater aber nannte ihn Benjamin. (Sohn der echten, d. h. des Glückes)

19 Und ahel starb und wurde begraben an dem Wege nach Ephrath, das ist Bethlehem.

20 Und Jakob richtete über ihrem Grabe ein Denkmal auf, das ist das Grabmal ahels bis auf diesen Tag.

21 Und Israel brach auf und schlug sein Zelt auf jenseits von Migdal-Heder. (Herdenturm)

22 Und es geschah, als Israel in jenem Lande wohnte, da ging uben hin und lag bei Bilha, dem Kebsweibe seines Vaters. Und Israel hörte es. Und der Söhne Jakobs waren zwölf.

23 Die Söhne Leas: uben, der Erstgeborene Jakobs, und Simeon und Levi und Juda und Issaschar und Sebulon.

24 Die Söhne ahels: Joseph und Benjamin.

25 Die Söhne Bilhas, der Magd ahels: Dan und Naphtali.

26 Und die Söhne Silpas, der Magd Leas: Gad und Aser. Das sind die Söhne Jakobs, welche ihm in Paddan-Aram geboren wurden.

27 Und Jakob kam zu seinem Vater Isaak nach Mamre, nach Kirjath-Arba, das ist Hebron, woselbst Abraham und Isaak als Fremdlinge geweilt hatten.

28 Und die Tage Isaaks waren 180 Jahre.

29 Und Isaak verschied und starb, und wurde versammelt zu seinen Völkern, alt und der Tage satt. Und Esau und Jakob, seine Söhne, begruben ihn.

9328. 'And throw into confusion all the people' means the dismay of all falsities. This is clear from the meaning of 'throwing into confusion' as dismay, dealt with below; and from the meaning of 'the people' as those guided by truths, thus in the abstract sense as truths themselves, and in the contrary sense as falsities, dealt with in 1259, 1260, 2928, 3295, 3581, 6232. The reason why 'throwing into confusion' means dismay is that those who are dismayed are thrown in heart and mind into such confusion that they are mad and charge of their own accord into destruction. The fact that such dismay is meant by 'throwing into confusion' is evident in Zechariah,

On that day there will be great confusion from Jehovah among those who fight against Jerusalem. And everyone will seize his companion's hand, 1 and his [other] hand will rise up against his companion's hand. Zechariah 14:12-13.

'Fighting against Jerusalem' means doing so against the Church, thus also against the truths and forms of the good of faith which constitute the Church. 'Confusion', it is evident, means dismay to the point of madness. In Moses,

Jehovah your God will deliver up 2 the nations before you, and will throw them into great confusion until they are destroyed. Deuteronomy 7:23.

'Confusion' stands for such dismay.

Arcana Coelestia #5826

5826. 'You know that my wife bore me two sons' means if spiritual good is what the Church possesses, internal good and truth will exist. This is clear from the representation of Israel, who says these things about himself, as spiritual good from the natural, dealt with immediately above in 5825; from the representation of Rachel, to whom the wife who had borne him two sons refers here, as the affection for interior truth, dealt with in 3758, 3782, 3793, 3819; and from the representation of Joseph and Benjamin,' the two sons she had borne, as internal good and truth, 'Joseph' being internal good and 'Benjamin' internal truth.

[2] What is meant by internal good and truth existing if spiritual good is what the Church possesses is this: Spiritual good, which 'Israel' represents, is the good of truth, that is, truth existing in will and action. This truth or good of truth causes a person to be a Church. When truth has been implanted in his will - something he perceives to have happened from the fact that he feels an affection for truth because his intention is to live according to it - internal good and truth are present in him. When that internal good and truth are present in a person he has the Lord's kingdom within him and he is consequently the Church; and together with those who are very similar to him he constitutes the Church at large. From this it may be recognized that for the Church to be the Church spiritual good, which is the good of truth, must exist and not simply truth by itself. At the present day it is by virtue of truth alone that a Church is called the Church, and it is what marks off one Church from another. Let anyone ask himself whether truth is anything unless it has life in view. What are religious teachings without that end in view? What for example are the Ten Commandments if separated from a life led according to them? For if someone knows them and the full extent of their meaning and yet leads a life contrary to them, what use are they? Surely none at all; indeed do they not serve to condemn some people? The same is so with other religious teachings that are derived from the Word. These too, being spiritual laws, are commandments for leading a Christian life; they likewise have no use at all unless they are made a person's guide to life. Let anyone weigh up what resides with himself and discover whether he has anything there which really is anything other than what enters into the life he leads, or whether life which really is his life resides anywhere else in a person than in his will.

[3] This is the reason why the Lord has declared in the Old Testament and confirmed in the New that all the Law and all the Prophets are founded on love to God and love towards the neighbour, thus on life. They are not founded on faith apart from life, nor thus in any way at all on faith alone, nor consequently on confidence; for without charity towards the neighbour such confidence is impossible. If it seems to exist with the wicked at times when their lives are in danger or death is at hand it is a spurious or false confidence; for among such people in the next life not a trace of this confidence can be seen, however ardently they may have appeared when near to death to profess that they possessed it. But faith, no matter whether you call it confidence or else trust, does nothing for the wicked, as the Lord Himself teaches in John,

As many as received Him, to them He gave power to be sons of God, to those believing in His name, who were born, not of blood, 1 nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:12-13.

[4] Those born of blood' stands for those who do violence to charity, 374, 1005, also those who render truth profane, 4735. 'Those born of the will of the flesh' stands for those governed by evils that spring from self-love and love of the world, 3813. 'Those born of the will of man' stands for those governed by utterly false notions; for 'man' (vir) means truth and in the contrary sense falsity. 'Those born of God' stands for those who have been regenerated by the Lord and are consequently governed by good. The latter are the ones who receive the Lord; they are the ones who believe in His name; and they, not the former, are the ones to whom He gives power to be sons of God. From all this it is quite evident what contribution faith alone makes to salvation.

[5] To take the matter further, if a person is to undergo regeneration and become a Church he must be led by means of truth into good, which happens when truth becomes truth existing in will and action. This truth is good and is called the good of truth. It constantly brings forth new truths, since then for the first time it is fruitful. The truth that is brought forth or made fruitful from it is what is called internal truth; and the good from which it springs is called internal good. For nothing becomes internal until it has been implanted in the will, the will being the inmost part of a person. As long as good and truth remain outside the will and solely in the understanding they are outside the person; for the understanding is outside, the will inside.
