1 Wider die Kinder Ammon spricht der HERR also: Hat denn Israel nicht Kinder, oder hat er keinen Erben? Warum besitzt denn Malchom das Land Gad und sein Volk wohnet in jener Städten?

2 Darum siehe, es kommt die Zeit, spricht der HERR, daß ich will ein Kriegsgeschrei erschallen lassen über Rabbath der Kinder Ammon, daß sie soll auf einem Haufen wüst liegen und ihre Töchter mit Feuer angesteckt werden. Aber Israel soll besitzen die, von denen sie besessen waren, spricht der HERR.

3 Heule, o Hesbon! denn Al ist verstöret. Schreiet, ihr Töchter Rabba, und ziehet Säcke an; klaget und laufet auf den Mauern herum! Denn Malchom wird gefangen weggeführet samt seinen Priestern und Fürsten.

4 Was trotzest du auf deine Auen? Deine Auen sind versäuft, du ungehorsame Tochter, die du dich auf deine Schätze verlässest und sprichst in deinem Herzen: Wer darf sich an mich machen?

5 Siehe, spricht der HERR HERR Zebaoth, ich will Furcht über dich kommen lassen von allen, die um dich her wohnen, daß ein jeglicher seines Weges vor sich hinaus verstoßen werde, und niemand sei, der die Flüchtigen sammle.

6 Aber danach will ich wieder wenden das Gefängnis der Kinder Ammon, spricht der HERR.

7 Wider Edom. So spricht der HERR Zebaoth: Ist denn keine Weisheit mehr zu Theman? Ist denn kein Rat mehr bei den Klugen? Ist ihre Weisheit so lose?

8 Fliehet, wendet euch und verkriechet euch tief, ihr Bürger zu Dedan; denn ich lasse einen Unfall über Esau kommen, die Zeit seiner Heimsuchung.

9 Es sollen Weinleser über dich kommen, die dir kein Nachlesen lassen; und Diebe des Nachts sollen über dich kommen, die sollen ihnen genug verderben.

10 Denn ich habe Esau entblößet und seine heimlichen Orte geöffnet, daß er sich nicht verstecken kann; sein Same, seine Brüder und seine Nachbarn sind verstöret, daß ihrer keiner mehr da ist.

11 Doch was übrig bleibt von deinen Waisen, denen will ich das Leben gönnen, und deine Witwen werden auf mich hoffen.

12 Denn so spricht der HERR: Siehe, diejenigen, so es nicht verschuldet hatten, den Kelch zu trinken, müssen trinken, und du solltest ungestraft bleiben? Du sollst nicht ungestraft bleiben, sondern du mußt auch trinken.

13 Denn ich habe bei mir selbst geschworen, spricht der HERR, daß Bazra soll ein Wunder, Schmach, Wüste und Fluch werden und alle ihre Städte eine ewige Wüste.

14 Ich habe gehöret vom HERRN, daß eine Botschaft unter die Heiden gesandt sei: Sammelt euch und kommet her wider sie; machet euch auf zum Streit!

15 Denn siehe, ich habe dich gering gemacht unter den Heiden und verachtet unter den Menschen.

16 Dein Trotz und deines Herzens Hochmut hat dich betrogen, weil du in Felsenklüften wohnest und hohe Gebirge inne hast. Wenn du denn gleich dein Nest so hoch machtest als der Adler, dennoch will ich dich von dannen herunterstürzen, spricht der HERR.

17 Also soll Edom wüste werden, daß alle die, so vorübergehen, sich wundern und pfeifen werden über alle ihre Plage,

18 gleichwie Sodom und Gomorrha samt ihren Nachbarn umgekehret ist, spricht der HERR, daß niemand daselbst wohnen noch kein Mensch drinnen hausen soll.

19 Denn siehe, er kommt herauf wie ein Löwe vom stolzen Jordan her wider die feste Hütte; denn ich will ihn daselbst her eilends laufen lassen. Und wer weiß, wer der Jüngling ist, den ich wider sie rüsten werde? Denn wer ist mir gleich? Wer will mich meistern, und wer ist der Hirte, der mir widerstehen kann?

20 So höret nun den Ratschlag des HERRN, den er über Edom hat, und seine Gedanken, die er über die Einwohner in Theman hat! Was gilt's, ob nicht die Hirtenknaben sie schleifen werden und ihre Wohnung zerstören,

21 daß die Erde beben wird, wenn es ineinanderfällt; und ihr Geschrei wird man am Schilfmeer hören.

22 Siehe, er fleugt herauf wie ein Adler und wird seine Flügel ausbreiten über Bazra. Zur selbigen Zeit wird das Herz der Helden in Edom sein wie das Herz einer Frau in Kindesnöten.

23 Wider Damaskus. Hemath und Arpad stehen jämmerlich; sie sind verzagt, denn sie hören ein böses Geschrei; die am Meer wohnen, sind so erschrocken, daß sie nicht Ruhe haben können.

24 Damaskus ist verzagt und gibt die Flucht; sie zappelt und ist Ängsten und Schmerzen wie eine Frau in Kindesnöten.

25 Wie, ist sie nun nicht verlassen, die berühmte und fröhliche Stadt?

26 Darum werden ihre junge Mannschaft auf ihren Gassen daniederliegen und alle ihre Kriegsleute untergehen zur selbigen Zeit, spricht der HERR Zebaoth.

27 Und ich will die Mauern zu Damaskus mit Feuer anstecken, daß es die Paläste Benhadads verzehren soll.

28 Wider Kedar und die Königreiche Hazors, welche Nebukadnezar, der König zu Babel, schlug. So spricht der HERR: Wohlauf, ziehet herauf nach Kedar und verstöret die Kinder gegen Morgen!

29 Man wird ihnen ihre Hütten und Herde nehmen; ihre Gezelte, alle Geräte und Kamele werden sie wegführen; und man wird schrecklich über sie rufen um und um.

30 Fliehet, hebet euch eilends davon! Verkriechet euch tief, ihr Einwohner in Hazor, spricht der HERR; denn Nebukadnezar, der König zu Babel, hat etwas im Sinn wider euch und meinet euch.

31 Wohlauf, ziehet herauf wider ein Volk, das genug hat und sicher wohnet, spricht der HERR: sie haben weder Tür noch Riegel und wohnen alleine.

32 Ihre Kamele sollen geraubet und die Menge ihres Viehes genommen werden; und ich will sie zerstreuen in alle Winde, die in den Winkeln wohnen; und von allen Orten her will ich ihr Unglück über sie kommen lassen, spricht der HERR,

33 daß Hazor soll eine Drachenwohnung und eine ewige Wüste werden, daß niemand daselbst wohne und kein Mensch drinnen hause.

34 Dies ist das Wort des HERRN, welches geschah zu Jeremia, dem Propheten, wider Elam im Anfang des Königreichs Zedekias, des Königs Judas, und sprach:

35 So spricht der HERR Zebaoth: Siehe, ich will den Bogen Elams zerbrechen, ihre vornehmste Gewalt.

36 Und will die vier Winde aus den vier Örtern des Himmels über sie kommen lassen und will sie in alle dieselbigen Winde zerstreuen, daß kein Volk sein soll, dahin nicht Vertriebene aus Elam kommen werden.

37 Und ich will Elam verzagt machen vor ihren Feinden und denen, die ihnen nach ihrem Leben stehen, und Unglück über sie kommen lassen mit meinem grimmigen Zorn, spricht der HERR; und will das Schwert hinter ihnen her schicken, bis ich sie aufreibe.

38 Meinen Stuhl will ich in Elam setzen und will beide, den König und die Fürsten, daselbst umbringen, spricht der HERR.

39 Aber in zukünftiger Zeit will ich das Gefängnis Elams wieder wenden, spricht der HERR.

Apocalypse Revealed #47

해당 구절 연구하기

47. His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow. (1:14) This symbolizes the Divine love accompanying Divine wisdom in first things and last.

A person's head symbolizes everything connected with his life, and everything connected with a person's life has some relation to love and wisdom. A head consequently symbolizes both wisdom and love. However, because there is no love without its wisdom, nor wisdom without its love, therefore it is the love accompanying wisdom that is meant by a head; and when describing the Lord, it is the Divine love accompanying Divine wisdom. But on the symbolism of the head in the Word, more will be seen in nos. 538 and 568 below.

Since a head means both love and wisdom in their first forms, it follows accordingly that hair means love and wisdom in their final forms. And because the hair mentioned here describes the Son of Man, who is the Lord in relation to the Word, His hair symbolizes the Divine good connected with love, and the Divine truth connected with wisdom, in the outmost expressions of the Word - the outmost expressions of the Word being those contained in its literal sense.

[2] The idea that the hair of the Son of Man or the Lord symbolizes the Word in this sense may seem absurd, but still it is the truth. This can be seen from passages in the Word that we cited in The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Sacred Scripture, nos. 35 and 49. We showed there as well that Nazirites in the Israelite Church represented the Lord in relation to the Word in its outmost expressions, which is its literal sense, as a nazir in Hebrew is a hair or head of hair. 1 That is why the power of Samson, who was a Nazirite from the womb, lay in his hair. The Divine truth similarly has power in the literal sense of the Word, as may be seen in the aforementioned Doctrine Regarding the Sacred Scripture, nos. 37-49.

For the same reason, too, the high priest and his sons were strictly forbidden to shave their heads.

For that reason as well, forty-two of the boys who called Elisha a baldhead were torn apart by two she-bears. Like Elijah, Elisha represented the Lord in relation to the Word. A baldhead symbolizes the Word without its outmost expression, which, as said, is its literal sense, and she-bears symbolize this sense of the Word divorced from its inner meaning. Those who so divorce it, moreover, appear in the spiritual world as bears, though only at a distance. It is apparent from this why what happened to the boys happened as it did.

It was, therefore, also the highest disgrace and a mark of extreme mourning to inflict baldness.

[3] Accordingly, when the Israelite nation had completely perverted the literal sense of the Word, this lamentation over them was composed:

Her Nazirites were whiter than snow, brighter white than milk... Darker than blackness is their form. They go unrecognized in the streets. (Lamentations 4:7-8)

Furthermore:

Every head was made bald, and every shoulder shaved bare. (Ezekiel 29:18)

Shame will be on every face, and baldness on all their heads. (Ezekiel 7:18)

So similarly Isaiah 15:2, Jeremiah 48:37, Amos 8:10.

Because the children of Israel by falsities completely dissipated the literal sense of the Word, therefore the prophet Ezekiel was commanded to represent this by shaving his head with a razor and burning a third part with fire, striking a third part with a sword, and scattering a third part to the wind, and by gathering a small amount in his skirts, to cast it, too, afterward into the fire (Ezekiel 5:1-4).

[4] Therefore it is also said in Micah:

Make yourself bald and cut off your hair, because of your precious children; enlarge your baldness like an eagle, for they have departed from you. (Micah 1:16)

The precious children are the church's genuine truths from the Word.

Moreover, because Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon, represented Babylon's falsification of the Word and destruction of every truth there, it accordingly came to pass that his hair grew like eagles' feathers (Daniel 4:33).

Since the hair symbolized that holy component of the Word, therefore it is said of Nazirites that they were not to shave the hair of their head, because it was the consecration of God upon their head (Numbers 6:1-21). And therefore it was decreed that the high priest and his sons were not to shave their heads, lest they die and the whole house of Israel be angered (Leviticus 10:6).

[5] Now, because hair symbolizes Divine truth in its outmost expressions, which in the church is the Word in its literal sense, therefore something similar is said also of the Ancient of Days in Daniel:

I watched till the thrones were thrown down, and the Ancient of Days was seated. His garment was as white as snow, and the hair of His head like pure wool. (Daniel 7:9)

That the Ancient of Days is the Lord is clearly apparent in Micah:

You, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall come forth to Me the One to be Ruler in Israel, whose goings forth are from antiquity, from days of old. (Micah 5:2)

And in Isaiah, where He is called Everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6).

[6] From these passages and many others - too many to cite - it can be seen that the head and hair of the Son of Man, which were like wool, as white as snow, mean the Divine expression of love and wisdom in first things and last. And because the Son of Man means the Lord in relation to the Word, it follows that the Word, too, is meant in its first elements and last. Why else should it be that the Lord here in the book of Revelation and the Ancient of Days in Daniel are described even in respect to their hair?

That hair symbolizes the literal sense of the Word is clearly apparent from people in the spiritual world. Those who have scorned the literal sense of the Word appear bald there, and conversely, those who have loved the literal sense of the Word appear possessed of handsome hair.

The head and hair are described as being like wool and like snow because wool symbolizes goodness in outmost expressions, and snow symbolizes truth in outward expressions - as is the case also in Isaiah 1:18 2 - inasmuch as wool comes from sheep, which symbolize the goodness of charity, and snow comes from water, which symbolizes truths of faith.

각주:

1. The Hebrew נָזִיר (nazir) fundamentally means "one consecrated" or "one set apart;" but as a condition of the Nazirite vow was to let the hair grow, by extension a cognate word נֵזֶר (nezer) came to mean also the hair of a Nazirite's consecration, and by analogy, a woman's long hair.

2. "Come now, and let us reason together," says Jehovah. "Though your sins be like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool."

Revelation 1

공부

1 This is the Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show to his servants the things which must happen soon, which he sent and made known by his angel to his servant, John,

2 who testified to God's word, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, about everything that he saw.

3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is at hand.

4 John, to the seven assemblies that are in Asia: Grace to you and peace, from God, who is and who was and who is to come; and from the seven Spirits who are before his throne;

5 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To him who loves us, and washed us from our sins by his blood;

6 and he made us to be a Kingdom, priests to his God and Father; to him be the glory and the dominion forever and ever. Amen.

7 Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, including those who pierced him. All the tribes of the earth will mourn over him. Even so, Amen.

8 "I am the Alpha and the Omega," says the Lord God, "who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."

9 I John, your brother and partner with you in oppression, Kingdom, and perseverance in Christ Jesus, was on the isle that is called Patmos because of God's Word and the testimony of Jesus Christ.

10 I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, like a trumpet

11 saying, "What you see, write in a book and send to the seven assemblies: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and to Laodicea."

12 I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. Having turned, I saw seven golden lampstands.

13 And among the lampstands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest.

14 His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire.

15 His feet were like burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters.

16 He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.

17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man. He laid his right hand on me, saying, "Don't be afraid. I am the first and the last,

18 and the Living one. I was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. I have the keys of Death and of Hades.

19 Write therefore the things which you have seen, and the things which are, and the things which will happen hereafter;

20 the mystery of the seven stars which you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden lampstands. The seven stars are the angels of the seven assemblies. The seven lampstands are seven assemblies.
