1 Und er sprach zu mir: Menschensohn, iß, was du findest; iß diese Rolle, und geh hin, rede zu dem Hause Israel.

2 Und ich öffnete meinen Mund, und er gab mir diese Rolle zu essen.

3 Und er sprach zu mir: Menschensohn, speise deinen Bauch und fülle deinen Leib mit dieser Rolle, welche ich dir gebe. Und ich sie, und sie war in meinem Munde süß wie Honig.

4 Und er sprach zu mir: Menschensohn! Auf, geh hin zu dem Hause Israel und rede zu ihnen mit meinen Worten!

5 Denn nicht zu einem Volke von unverständlicher Sprache und schwieriger Rede bist du gesandt, sondern zum Hause Israel;

6 nicht zu vielen Völkern von unverständlicher Sprache und schwieriger Rede, deren Worte du nicht verstehst, sondern zu ihnen habe ich dich gesandt; sie können auf dich hören.

7 Aber das Haus Israel wird nicht auf dich hören wollen, denn sie wollen nicht auf mich hören. Denn das ganze Haus Israel ist von harter Stirn und verstockten Herzens.

8 Siehe, ich habe dein Angesicht hart gemacht gegenüber ihrem Angesicht, und deine Stirn hart gegenüber ihrer Stirn;

9 wie einen Diamant, der härter ist als ein Fels, habe ich deine Stirn gemacht. Fürchte sie nicht und erschrick nicht vor ihrem Angesicht, denn ein widerspenstiges Haus sind sie. -

10 Und er sprach zu mir: Menschensohn, alle meine Worte, die ich zu dir reden werde, nimm in dein Herz auf und höre sie mit deinen Ohren;

11 und mache dich auf, geh hin zu den Weggeführten, zu den Kindern deines Volkes, und rede zu ihnen und sprich zu ihnen: "So spricht der Herr, Jehova!" Sie mögen hören oder es lassen.

12 Und der Geist hob mich empor; und ich hörte hinter mir den Schall eines starken Getöses: "Gepriesen sei die Herrlichkeit Jehovas von ihrer Stätte her!"

13 und das Rauschen der Flügel der lebendigen Wesen, welche einander berührten, und das Sausen der Räder neben ihnen, und den Schall eines starken Getöses.

14 Und der Geist hob mich empor und nahm mich hinweg; und ich fuhr dahin, erbittert in der Glut meines Geistes; und die Hand Jehovas war stark auf mir.

15 Und ich kam nach Tel-Abib zu den Weggeführten, die am Flusse Kebar wohnten; und daselbst, wo sie saßen, dort saß ich sieben Tage betäubt in ihrer Mitte.

16 Und es geschah am Ende von sieben Tagen, da geschah das Wort Jehovas zu mir also:

17 Menschensohn, ich habe dich dem Hause Israel zum Wächter gesetzt; und du sollst das Wort aus meinem Munde hören und sie von meinetwegen warnen.

18 Wenn ich zu dem Gesetzlosen spreche: Du sollst gewißlich sterben! und du warnst ihn nicht und redest nicht, um den Gesetzlosen vor seinem gesetzlosen Wege zu warnen, um ihn am Leben zu erhalten, so wird er, der Gesetzlose, wegen seiner Ungerechtigkeit sterben, aber sein Blut werde ich von deiner Hand fordern.

19 Wenn du aber den Gesetzlosen warnst, und er kehrt nicht um von seiner Gesetzlosigkeit und von seinem gesetzlosen Wege, so wird er wegen seiner Ungerechtigkeit sterben; du aber hast deine Seele errettet.

20 Und wenn ein Gerechter von seiner Gerechtigkeit umkehrt und unrecht tut, und ich einen Anstoß vor ihn lege, so soll er sterben. Wenn du ihn nicht warnst, so wird er wegen seiner Sünde sterben, und seiner gerechten Taten, die er getan hat, wird nicht gedacht werden; aber sein Blut werde ich von deiner Hand fordern.

21 Wenn du aber ihn, den Gerechten, warnst, damit der Gerechte nicht sündige, und er sündigt nicht, so wird er gewißlich leben, weil er sich hat warnen lassen; und du, du hast deine Seele errettet.

22 Und die Hand Jehovas kam daselbst über mich, und er sprach zu mir: Mache dich auf, geh hinaus in das Tal, und dort will ich mit dir reden.

23 Und ich machte mich auf und ging hinaus in das Tal; und siehe, daselbst stand die Herrlichkeit Jehovas, gleich der Herrlichkeit, die ich am Flusse Kebar gesehen hatte; und ich fiel nieder auf mein Angesicht.

24 Und der Geist kam in mich und stellte mich auf meine Füße. Und er redete mit mir und sprach zu mir: Geh, schließe dich in deinem Hause ein.

25 Und du, Menschensohn, siehe, man wird dir Stricke anlegen und dich damit binden, daß du nicht wirst hinausgehen können in ihre Mitte.

26 Und ich werde deine Zunge an deinem Gaumen kleben lassen, damit du verstummest und sie nicht mehr zurechtweisest; denn ein widerspenstiges Haus sind sie.

27 Wenn ich aber mit dir reden werde, will ich deinen Mund auftun, und du sollst zu ihnen sprechen: "So spricht der Herr, Jehova!" Wer hören will, der höre, und wer es läßt, der lasse es; denn ein widerspenstiges Haus sind sie.

63. Verse 13. And in the midst of the seven lampstands one like unto the Son of man, signifies the Lord, from whom is the All of heaven and of the church. This is evident from the signification of "in the midst," as being in the inmost (See Arcana Coelestia., n. 1074, 2940, 2973); and as all things proceed from the inmost, as light proceeds from the center to the circumferences, so "in the midst" signifies from whom; also from the signification of "the seven lampstands," as being the new heaven and the new church (of which just above, n. 62; and from the signification of "the Son of man," as being the Lord in respect to the Divine Human, and also in respect to Divine truth, because Divine truth proceeds from His Divine Human. From this it can be seen why the Lord appeared "in the midst of seven lampstands," namely, because from Him the All of heaven and the church proceeds; for it is the good of love and of faith that makes heaven and the church, and that this good is from the Divine is known in the Christian world, and as it is from the Divine, it is from the Lord, for the Lord is the God of heaven, and the Divine of the Lord makes heaven (See the work on Heaven and Hell (Heaven and Hell 2-6, 7-12 that this is His Divine Human, 78-86).

[2] That the Son of man is the Lord in respect to the Divine Human, and also in respect to Divine truth, because Divine truth proceeds from His Divine Human, is evident from those passages in the Word where the Son of man is mentioned. Thus in John:

The multitude said to Jesus, How sayest Thou, The Son of man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of man? Jesus answered thee, Yet a little while is the light with you; walk while ye have the light, lest darkness overtake you. While ye have the light believe in the light, that ye may be sons of light (John 12:34-36).

From these words it is clear that "the Son of man" and "Light" have a like signification; for when the people asked, Who is the Son of man? the Lord answered that He was the Light in which they should believe. (That "light" is the Divine truth proceeding from the Lord's Divine Human, see in the work on Heaven and Hell 126-140; and in The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem 49; thus also the Son of man. )

[3] In Luke:

Blessed are ye when men shall hate you for the Son of man's sake (Luke 6:22).

"For the Son of man's sake" is for the sake of Divine truth that proceeds from the Lord. Divine truth is the All of faith in and of love to the Lord. Because the evil deny these things, and those who deny also hate them, while the good acknowledge them, therefore it is said that the good are blessed.

[4] In the same:

The days will come when ye shall desire to see one of the days of the Son of man, but ye shall not see it. Then they shall say to you, Lo here, or Lo there. Go not away, nor pursue after (Luke 17:22-23).

"To desire [to see] one of the days of the Son of man," is to desire Divine truth, which is genuine truth, as to something thereof; the end of the church is here meant, when there will no longer be any faith, because there will be no charity, at which time all Divine truth will perish; and because Divine truth is signified by "the Son of man," it is said, "Then shall they say, Lo here, or Lo there; pursue not after."

[5] In the same:

When the Son of man cometh, shall He find faith upon the earth? (Luke 18:8);

which means that when Divine truth shall be revealed out of heaven it will not be believed. Here also, "the Son of man" is the Lord in respect to Divine truth; the coming of the Lord is the revelation of Divine truth at the end of the church (See Arcana Coelestia 3900, 4060).

[6] In Matthew:

As the lightning cometh forth from the east, and is seen even unto the west, so shall the coming of the Son of man be. Then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven; and then shall all the tribes of the earth lament, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven, with power and glory (Matthew 24:27, 30).

That by "the coming of the Lord in the clouds of heaven" is here signified the revelation of Divine truth at the end of the church, see above n. 36.

[7] In the same:

I say unto you, Henceforth ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven (Matthew 26:64).

And in Luke:

From henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God (Luke 22:69).

"The Son of man" is the Lord in respect to the Divine Human, and in respect to Divine truth proceeding from Him; "to sit at the right hand of power" means that He has omnipotence; its being said that they were now about to see this means that Divine truth was in its omnipotence when the Lord in the world had conquered the hells and reduced to order all things there and in the heavens, and that thus those who received Him in faith and love could be saved (See Arcana Coelestia 9715. That to "sit at the right hand" means omnipotence, see Arcana Coelestia 3387, 4592, 4933, 7518, 8281, 9193; that all the power of good is by means of truth, n. 6344, 6423, 8304, 9327, 9410, 9639, 9643. That Divine power itself is by means of Divine truth proceeding from the Lord's Divine Human, see n. 6948; that the "clouds" in which the Son of man is to come are the Word in the letter, which is Divine truth in the ultimate of order, see the preface to chapter 18 of Genesis, n. 4060, 4391, 5922, 6343, 6752, 8443, 8781; and that "glory" is Divine truth itself, such as it is in the internal sense of the Word, see n. 4809, 5922, 8267, 9429).

[8] From this it can now be seen what is signified by these words in Revelation:

I saw, and behold, a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on His head a golden crown (Revelation 14:14).

And in Daniel:

I saw in the night visions, and behold, there came with the clouds of the heavens one like unto the Son of man (Daniel 7:13).

Because all judgment is executed according to truth, therefore it is said, that it was given to the Lord:

To execute judgment, because He is the Son of man (John 5:27); and that:

The Son of man shall render unto every man according to his deeds (Matthew 16:27);

and that:

When the Son of man shall come, He shall sit on the throne of His glory, and shall judge (Matthew 25:31).

[9] In Matthew:

He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man, the field is the world, the seed are the sons of the kingdom, the tares are the sons of the evil one (Matthew 13:37-38).

"Good seed" is Divine truth; it is therefore said that the Son of man soweth it; "the sons of the kingdom" are Divine truths in heaven and the church; for "son" is truth (See Arcana Coelestia 489, 491, 533, 1147, 2623), and, in the contrary sense, falsity, which also is "the son of the evil one."

[10] In the same:

The Son of man hath not where to lay His head (Matthew 8:20);

by which is meant that Divine truth had no place anywhere, that is, with any man at that time. That the Son of man was about to suffer and be put to death (Matthew 17:12, 22-23; 26:2, 24, 45; Mark 8:31; 9:12, 31) signifies that thus they were about to treat Divine truth, consequently the Lord, who was Divine truth itself. This He also teaches in Luke:

But first must the Son of man suffer, and be rejected of this generation (Luke 17:25).

[11] In Jeremiah:

No man [vir] shall dwell there; neither shall a son of man [hominis] sojourn there (Jeremiah 49:18, 33).

And in the same:

In the cities no man [vir] shall dwell, nor shall a son of man [hominis] pass through them (Jeremiah 51:43).

He who does not know the spiritual sense of the Word believes that by "cities" here are meant cities, and that by "man," and "son of man," are meant a man and a son; and that the cities were to be so desolated that no one should be in them, but it is the state of the church in respect to the doctrine of truth that is described by these words; for "cities" are the doctrinals of the church (See Arcana Coelestia 402, 2449, 3216, 492, 4493); and "man" is its very truth conjoined with good (See n. 3134, 7716, 9007); therefore a "son of man" is truth.

[12] As Divine truth proceeding from the Lord was signified by "the Son of man," therefore the prophets by whom it was revealed were called "sons of man" (as Daniel 8:17; and Ezekiel 2:1, 3, 6, 8; 3:1, 3-4, 10, 17, 25; 4:1, 16; 8:5-6, 8, 12, 15; 12:2, 3, 9, 18, 22, 27). As most things in the Word have also a contrary sense, so "son of man" has a contrary signification, which is the falsity opposite to truth. Thus in Isaiah:

What art thou, that thou art afraid of man, that dies; and of the son of man, who shall be as grass (Isaiah 51:12).

And in David:

Put not your trust in princes, in the son of man, with whom there is no salvation (Psalms 146:3).

"Princes" are primary truths (See Arcana Coelestia 2089, 5044); so, in the contrary sense, primary falsities; and "the son of man" is falsity itself.
