1 Viešpats sakė Mozei: “Eik pas faraoną ir jam sakyk: ‘Taip sako Viešpats, hebrajų Dievas: ‘Išleisk mano žmones, kad jie man tarnautų!

2 Jei jų neišleisi ir nepaliausi jų laikęs,

3 Viešpaties ranka bus ant tavo lauke besiganančių gyvulių: arklių, asilų, kupranugarių, avių ir galvijų­bus labai sunkus maras.

4 Viešpats atskirs izraelitų ir egiptiečių gyvulius; niekas nežus, kas priklauso izraelitams’ ”.

5 Ir Viešpats paskyrė laiką, sakydamas: “ ytoj Viešpats įvykdys šitą dalyką krašte!”

6 Kitą rytą Viešpats įvykdė tai: visi egiptiečių gyvuliai nugaišo, bet iš izraelitų gyvulių nepražuvo nė vienas.

7 Faraonas pasiuntė pasižiūrėti. Pasirodė, kad izraelitų gyvulių nė vienas nebuvo nugaišęs. Tačiau faraono širdis liko kieta ir jis neišleido tautos.

8 Tada Viešpats tarė Mozei ir Aaronui: “Imkite pilnas saujas pelenų iš krosnies ir Mozė teberia juos į orą faraono akivaizdoje.

9 Jie taps dulkėmis visoje Egipto šalyje, ir ant žmonių bei gyvulių iškils votys su pūslėmis”.

10 Jie pasiėmė pelenų iš krosnies ir, atsistoję prieš faraoną, išbėrė juos į orą. Ir atsirado votys ant žmonių ir gyvulių.

11 Žyniai negalėjo pasirodyti Mozei, nes votys buvo ant jų ir visų egiptiečių.

12 Tačiau Viešpats užkietino faraono širdį, ir jis neklausė jų, kaip Viešpats ir buvo sakęs Mozei.

13 Tada Viešpats tarė Mozei: “Atsikelk anksti rytą, nueik pas faraoną ir sakyk: ‘Taip sako Viešpats, hebrajų Dievas: ‘Išleisk mano tautą man tarnauti.

14 Nes šį kartą Aš siųsiu įvairias negalias ir vargus tau, tavo tarnams ir tavo žmonėms, kad žinotum, jog nėra man lygaus visoje žemėje.

15 Aš galėjau ištiesti savo ranką ir ištikti tave ir tavo tautą maru, kad būtumėte visi pranykę nuo žemės paviršiaus.

16 Bet Aš tam išaukštinau tave, kad parodyčiau savo galią ir mano vardas būtų skelbiamas visoje žemėje.

17 Tu vis dar didžiuojiesi prieš mano tautą ir neišleidi jos.

18 ytoj apie šitą laiką kris labai smarki kruša, kokios nėra buvę Egipte nuo jo įsikūrimo dienos.

19 Taigi dabar siųsk žmones surinkti iš lauko gyvulius ir visa, kas tau priklauso. Visi žmonės ir gyvuliai, kurie bus lauke ir nebus parvesti namo, krušai krintant, pražus’ ”.

20 Faraono tarnai, kurie bijojo Viešpaties, sugabeno į namus savo tarnus ir gyvulius.

21 O kas nekreipė dėmesio į Viešpaties žodį, paliko savo tarnus ir gyvulius lauke.

22 Viešpats tarė Mozei: “Ištiesk savo ranką, kad kristų kruša visoje Egipto šalyje: ant žmonių, gyvulių ir visos laukų augmenijos”.

23 Mozė ištiesė lazdą, ir Viešpats pasiuntė perkūniją, krušą ir žaibus. Viešpats siuntė krušą į visą Egipto žemę.

24 Kruša susimaišė su žaibais ir buvo tokia smarki, kokios Egipto šalis nebuvo mačiusi.

25 Kruša išmušė Egipto šalyje visa, kas buvo lauke: žmones, gyvulius, augalus ir medžius.

26 Tik Gošeno krašte, kur gyveno izraelitai, nebuvo krušos.

27 Faraonas, pasišaukęs Mozę ir Aaroną, jiems kalbėjo: “Aš nusidėjau! Viešpats yra teisus, o aš ir mano tauta esame nusikaltę.

28 Melskite Viešpatį, kad liautųsi stipri perkūnija ir kruša! Aš jus išleisiu ir daugiau nebesulaikysiu”.

29 Mozė jam atsakė: “Kai tik išeisiu iš miesto, pakelsiu rankas į Viešpatį. Tada perkūnija ir kruša liausis, kad žinotum, jog Viešpačiui priklauso visa žemė.

30 Bet aš žinau, kad nei tu, nei tavo tarnai dar nesibijote Viešpaties Dievo”.

31 Linus ir miežius kruša išmušė, nes miežiai buvo išplaukę ir linai jau žydėjo.

32 Bet kviečių ir rugių neišmušė, nes jie vėliau pribręsta.

33 Mozė išėjo nuo faraono iš miesto ir iškėlė rankas į Viešpatį: perkūnija ir kruša liovėsi, lietus nustojo lijęs.

34 Bet faraonas, matydamas, kad liovėsi lietus, kruša ir perkūnija, vėl nusidėjo ir užkietino savo širdį kartu su savo tarnais.

35 Faraono širdis pasiliko užkietėjusi, ir jis neišleido Izraelio vaikų, kaip Viešpats ir buvo sakęs Mozei.

7539. 'And you are to say to him, Thus said Jehovah the God of the Hebrews' means a command from the Lord, who is the God of the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'saying', when done by Jehovah or the Lord to those who are immersed in evils and engage in molestation, as a command, as in 7036, 7310; from the meaning of 'the Hebrews' as those who belong to the Church, and so are the Church, dealt with in 6675, 6684, 6738; and since the Lord is the one who is meant when the name Jehovah is used in the Word, see 1343, 1736, 2921, 3023, 3035, 5041, 5663, 6280, 6281, 6303, 6905, 6945, 6956, 'Jehovah the God of the Hebrews' means the Lord who is the God of the Church.

1343. That 'Eber' was a nation, the Hebrew nation, which took its name from 'Eber' as its forefather, and which means the worship in general of the second Ancient Church, is clear from the references to him in the historical sections of the Word. Because a new form of worship began with that nation, all those were called Hebrews whose worship was similar to it. Their worship was like that re-established at a later time among the descendants of Jacob, its chief features being that they called their God Jehovah and held sacrifices. The Most Ancient Church was of one mind in acknowledging the Lord and calling Him Jehovah, as is clear also from the early chapters of Genesis and elsewhere in the Word. The Ancient Church, that is, the Church after the Flood also acknowledged the Lord and called Him Jehovah, especially those who possessed internal worship and were called 'the sons of Shem'. The remainder whose worship was external also acknowledged Jehovah and worshipped Him. But when internal worship became external, and still more when it became idolatrous, and when each nation started to have its own god to worship, the Hebrew nation retained the name of Jehovah and called their own God Jehovah. In this they were different from all other nations.

[2] Along with external worship, Jacob's descendants in Egypt, including Moses himself, lost knowledge even of this fact, that their God was called Jehovah. Consequently they had first of all to be taught that Jehovah was the God of the Hebrews, and the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, as becomes clear from the following in Moses,

Jehovah said to Moses, You and the elders of Israel shall go in to the king of Egypt, and you shall say to him, Jehovah the God of the Hebrews has met with us; and now let us go, pray, a three days' journey into the wilderness, and let us sacrifice to Jehovah our God. Exodus 3:18.

In the same author,

Pharaoh said, Who is Jehovah that I should hearken to His voice to send Israel away? I do not know Jehovah, and moreover I will not send Israel away. And they said, The God of the Hebrews has met with us; let us go, pray, a three days' journey into the wilderness, and let us sacrifice to Jehovah our God. Exodus 5:2-3.

[3] The fact that Jacob's descendants lost in Egypt, along with the worship, even the name of Jehovah becomes clear from the following in Moses,

Moses said to God, Behold, when I come to the children of Israel and say to them, The God of your fathers has sent me to you, and they say to me, What is His name? What shall I tell them? And God said to Moses, I Am Who I Am. And He said, Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, I Am has sent me to you. And God said moreover to Moses, Thus shall you say to the children of Israel, Jehovah the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you; this is My name for ever. Exodus 3:13-15.

[4] From this it is evident that even Moses did not know it and that they were distinguished from everyone else by the name of Jehovah, the God of the Hebrews. Hence also Jehovah is elsewhere called the God of the Hebrews,

You shall say to Pharaoh, Jehovah the God of the Hebrews has sent me to you. Exodus 7:16.

Go in to Pharaoh and say to him, Thus said Jehovah the God of the Hebrews. Exodus 9:1, 13.

Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh and said to him, Thus said Jehovah the God of the Hebrews Exodus 10:3.

In Jonah,

I am a Hebrew, and I fear Jehovah, the God of heaven. Jonah 1:9.

And also in Samuel,

The Philistines heard the noise of the shouting and said, What does the noise of this great shouting in the camp of the Hebrews mean? And they learned that the Ark of Jehovah had come to the camp. The Philistines said, Woe to us! Who will deliver us from the hand of these mighty gods? These are the gods who smote the Egyptians with every sort of plague in the wilderness. Acquit yourselves like men, O Philistines, lest you be slaves to the Hebrews. 1 Samuel 4:6, 8-9.

Here also it is evident that nations were distinguished from one another by the gods whose names they called on, and that the Hebrew nation was distinguished by that of Jehovah.

[5] The fact that sacrifices were the second essential feature of the worship of the Hebrew nation is also evident from the words from Exodus 3:18; 5:2-3, quoted above, as well as from the fact that the Egyptians abhorred the Hebrew nation on account of this form of worship, as is clear from the following in Moses,

Moses said, It is not right to do so, for we would be sacrificing to Jehovah our God what is abhorrent to the Egyptians; behold, we would be sacrificing what is abhorrent to the Egyptians in their eyes; will they not stone us? Exodus 8:26.

Consequently the Egyptians also abhorred the Hebrew nation so much that they refused even 'to eat bread' with them, Genesis 43:32. From this it is also evident that not merely the descendants of Jacob constituted the Hebrew nation but everybody who possessed that kind of worship. This also was why in Joseph's day the land of Canaan was called the land of the Hebrews,

Joseph said. By theft I have been taken away out of the land of the Hebrews. Genesis 40:15.

[6] The fact that sacrifices took place among the idolaters in the land of Canaan becomes clear from many references, for they used to sacrifice to their gods - to the baals and to others What is more, Balaam, who came from Syria where Eber had lived, that is, where the Hebrew nation had originated, before Jacob's descendants entered the land of Canaan, not only offered sacrifices but also called his God Jehovah. As to the fact that Balaam came from Syria where the Hebrew nation had originated, see Numbers 23:7; that he offered sacrifices, Numbers 22:39-40; 23:1-3, 14, 29; that he called his God Jehovah, Numbers 22:18, and elsewhere in those chapters. And Genesis 8:20 speaks of Noah offering burnt offerings to Jehovah - though this is not true history but made-up history - for 'burnt offerings' means the holiness of worship, as may be seen in that story. These considerations now show what 'Eber' or 'the Hebrew nation' means.
