1 モーセに言われた、

2 イスラエルの人々に告げ、引き返して、ミグドルととの間にあるピハヒロテの、バアルゼポンのに宿営させなさい。あなたがたはそれにむかって、のかたわらに宿営しなければならない。

3 パロはイスラエルの人々について、『彼らはその地で迷っている。荒野は彼らを閉じ込めてしまった』と言うであろう。

4 わたしがパロのをかたくなにするから、パロは彼らのあとを追うであろう。わたしはパロとそのすべての勢を破って誉を得、エジプトびとにわたしがであることを知らせるであろう」。彼らはそのようにした。

5 民の逃げ去ったことが、エジプトの王に伝えられたので、パロとその家来たちとは、民に対する考えを変えて言った、「われわれはなぜこのようにイスラエルを去らせて、われわれに仕えさせないようにしたのであろう」。

6 それでパロは戦車を整え、みずからその民を率い、

7 また、えり抜きの戦車と、エジプトのすべての戦車およびすべての指揮者たちを率いた。

8 エジプトの王パロのをかたくなにされたので、彼はイスラエルの人々のあとを追った。イスラエルの人々は意気揚々と出たのである。

9 エジプトびとは彼らのあとを追い、パロのすべてのと戦車およびその騎兵と勢とは、バアルゼポンのにあるピハヒロテのあたりで、のかたわらに宿営している彼らに追いついた。

10 パロが近寄った時、イスラエルの人々はを上げてエジプトびとが彼らのあとに進んできているのを見て、非常に恐れた。そしてイスラエルの人々はにむかって叫び、

11 かつモーセに言った、「エジプトがないので、荒野で死なせるために、わたしたちを携え出したのですか。なぜわたしたちをエジプトから導き出して、こんなにするのですか。

12 わたしたちがエジプトであなたに告げて、『わたしたちを捨てておいて、エジプトびとに仕えさせてください』と言ったのは、このことではありませんか。荒野死ぬよりもエジプトびとに仕える方が、わたしたちにはよかったのです」。

13 モーセは民に言った、「あなたがたは恐れてはならない。かたく立って、がきょう、あなたがたのためになされる救を見なさい。きょう、あなたがたはエジプトびとを見るが、もはや永久に、二度と彼らを見ないであろう。

14 があなたがたのために戦われるから、あなたがたは黙していなさい」。

15 モーセに言われた、「あなたは、なぜわたしにむかって叫ぶのか。イスラエルの人々に語って彼らを進み行かせなさい。

16 あなたはつえを上げ、の上にさし伸べてそれを分け、イスラエルの人々にの中のかわいた地を行かせなさい。

17 わたしがエジプトびとのをかたくなにするから、彼らはそのあとを追ってはいるであろう。こうしてわたしはパロとそのすべての勢および戦車と騎兵とを打ち破って誉を得よう。

18 わたしがパロとその戦車とその騎兵とを打ち破って誉を得るとき、エジプトびとはわたしがであることを知るであろう」。

19 このとき、イスラエルの部隊のに行く神の使は移って彼らのうしろに行った。も彼らのから移って彼らのうしろに立ち、

20 エジプトびとの部隊とイスラエルびとの部隊との間にきたので、そこにとやみがありもすがら、かれとこれと近づくことなく、がすぎた。

21 モーセの上にさし伸べたので、もすがら強い東をもってを退かせ、を陸地とされ、は分かれた。

22 イスラエルの人々はの中のかわいた地を行ったが、は彼らの右と左に、かきとなった。

23 エジプトびとは追ってきて、パロのすべてのと戦車と騎兵とは、彼らのあとについての中にはいった。

24 暁の更に、のうちからエジプトびとの軍勢を見おろして、エジプトびとの軍勢を乱し、

25 その戦車の輪をきしらせて、進むのに重くされたので、エジプトびとは言った、「われわれはイスラエルを離れて逃げよう。が彼らのためにエジプトびとと戦う」。

26 そのときモーセに言われた、「あなたのの上にさし伸べて、エジプトびとと、その戦車と騎兵との上に流れ返らせなさい」。

27 モーセの上にさし伸べると、夜明けになってはいつもの流れに返り、エジプトびとはこれにむかって逃げたが、エジプトびとをの中に投げ込まれた。

28 は流れ返り、イスラエルのあとを追ってにはいった戦車と騎兵およびパロのすべての勢をおおい、ひとりも残らなかった。

29 しかし、イスラエルの人々はの中のかわいた地を行ったが、は彼らの右と左に、かきとなった。

30 このように、はこのイスラエルエジプトびとのから救われた。イスラエルエジプトびとがべに死んでいるのを見た

31 イスラエルはまた、エジプトびとに行われた大いなるみわざを見た。それで民は恐れとそのしもべモーセとを信じた。

8137. And I will be glorified. That this signifies that they should see a Divine effect from the Divine Human of the Lord in the dissipation of falsity, is evident from the signification of “to be glorified,” when said of Jehovah or the Lord, as being a Divine effect, here from His Divine Human, because by coming into the world and assuming the Human and making it Divine, the Lord cast into the hells all evils and falsities, and reduced the heavens into order, and also liberated from damnation those who were of the spiritual church (see n. 6854, 6914, 7091, 7828, 7932, 8018). These things are in general signified by “being glorified,” but here there is signified that they who had infested the well-disposed should be cast into hell, and there encompassed about with falsities as with waters of a sea, and this as a Divine effect from the mere presence of the Lord.

[2] To show how the case herein is, it shall be further unfolded. There are as many hells as there are genera and species of evils, each hell being separated from others as it were by rain-storms, clouds, or waters. In the other life evils and falsities appear before the eyes of spirits as rain-storms and clouds, and also as waters; the falsities from evils of those who have been of the spiritual church and have lived evilly, appear as waters; but the falsities from evils of those who have been of the celestial church, appear as rain-storms. They who are in the hells appear to be thus encompassed, with a difference everywhere in respect to amount and kind, density and rarity, thick darkness and dimness, according to the genus and species of the falsity from evil. The hell where they are who have lived in faith separate from charity and in a life of evil, is encompassed as by the waters of a sea; the falsities of evil do not indeed appear as waters to those who are there, but to those who look from without. Above that sea, where these are, are the hells of adulterers; these are above, because in the internal sense adulteries denote adulterations of good and the consequent perversions of truth, thus they denote evils from which come falsities contrary to the truths and goods of faith (n. 2466, 2729, 3399), being such falsities as are with those who are in the hell beneath, and who have lived contrary to the truth of the church, and have made its good of no account, and therefore have also adulterated and perverted everything that is said in the Word about good, that is, about charity toward the neighbor and about love to God.

[3] As regards the “glorification in Pharaoh and in his army,” this here denotes immersion in this hell and being encompassed by waters as of a sea at the mere presence of the Lord, as was said above. For the evil flee from the presence of the Lord, that is, the presence of the good and truth that are from Him, feeling horror and torment at their mere approach; and also by reason of this presence they become encompassed about with their own evils and falsities, for these then burst forth from them; and indeed these evils and falsities encompass and are interposed in order to prevent the Divine from flowing in and tormenting them. This is the Divine effect which is here signified by the “glorification in Pharaoh and in his army.” That this effect is from the Divine Human of the Lord, is because, as before said, by the Lord’s coming into the world and assuming the Human and making it Divine, He cast all falsities and evils into hell, and reduced truths and goods in the heavens into order, and liberated from damnation those who were of the spiritual church.

Exodus 3

Studija

   

1 Now Moses was keeping the flock of Jethro, his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the back of the wilderness, and came to God's mountain, to Horeb.

2 The angel of Yahweh appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed.

3 Moses said, "I will turn aside now, and see this great sight, why the bush is not burnt."

4 When Yahweh saw that he turned aside to see, God called to him out of the midst of the bush, and said, "Moses! Moses!" He said, "Here I am."

5 He said, "Don't come close. Take your sandals off of your feet, for the place you are standing on is holy ground."

6 Moreover he said, "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob." Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look at God.

7 Yahweh said, "I have surely seen the affliction of my people who are in Egypt, and have heard their cry because of their taskmasters, for I know their sorrows.

8 I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians, and to bring them up out of that land to a good and large land, to a land flowing with milk and honey; to the place of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

9 Now, behold, the cry of the children of Israel has come to me. Moreover I have seen the oppression with which the Egyptians oppress them.

10 Come now therefore, and I will send you to Pharaoh, that you may bring forth my people, the children of Israel, out of Egypt."

11 Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt?"

12 He said, "Certainly I will be with you. This will be the token to you, that I have sent you: when you have brought forth the people out of Egypt, you shall serve God on this mountain."

13 Moses said to God, "Behold, when I come to the children of Israel, and tell them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you;' and they ask me, 'What is his name?' What should I tell them?"

14 God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM," and he said, "You shall tell the children of Israel this: 'I AM has sent me to you.'"

15 God said moreover to Moses, "You shall tell the children of Israel this, 'Yahweh, 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 forever, and this is my memorial to all generations.

16 Go, and gather the elders of Israel together, and tell them, 'Yahweh, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, of Isaac, and of Jacob, has appeared to me, saying, "I have surely visited you, and seen that which is done to you in Egypt;

17 and I have said, I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Amorite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, to a land flowing with milk and honey."'

18 They will listen to your voice, and you shall come, you and the elders of Israel, to the king of Egypt, and you shall tell him, 'Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Now please let us go three days' journey into the wilderness, that we may sacrifice to Yahweh, our God.'

19 I know that the king of Egypt won't give you permission to go, no, not by a mighty hand.

20 I will put forth my hand and strike Egypt with all my wonders which I will do in its midst, and after that he will let you go.

21 I will give this people favor in the sight of the Egyptians, and it will happen that when you go, you shall not go empty-handed.

22 But every woman shall ask of her neighbor, and of her who visits her house, jewels of silver, jewels of gold, and clothing; and you shall put them on your sons, and on your daughters. You shall plunder the Egyptians."
