俄巴底亚书 1

Студија

1 俄巴底亚得了耶和华的默示。论以东:我从耶和华那里见信息,并有使者被差往列国去,起来罢,一同起来以东争战!

2 我使你─以东在列国中为最小的,被人大大藐视。

3 在山穴中、居所在处的啊,你因狂傲自欺,:谁能将我拉去呢?

4 你虽如大飞,在宿之间搭窝,我必从那里拉你来。这是耶和华的。

5 在你那里,或强盗夜间而─你何竟被剪除─岂不窃直到够了呢?摘葡萄的若到你那里,岂不剩下些葡萄呢?

6 以扫的隐密处何竟被搜寻?他隐藏的宝物何竟被查出?

7 与你结盟的都送你上,直到交界;与你和好的欺骗你,且胜过你;与你一同吃饭的设网罗陷害你;在你心里毫无聪明。

8 耶和华:到那日,我岂不从以东除灭智慧人?从以扫除灭聪明人?

9 提幔哪,你的勇士必惊惶,甚至以扫都被杀戮剪除。

10 因你向兄弟雅各行强暴,羞愧必遮盖你,你也必永远断绝。

11 当外人掳掠雅各的财物,外邦人进入他的城,为耶路撒冷拈阄的日子,你竟站在旁,像与他们同夥。

12 兄弟遭难的日子,你不当瞪眼着;犹大人被灭的日子,你不当因此欢乐;他们遭难的日子,你不当狂傲的话。

13 我民遭灾的日子,你不当进他们的城;他们遭灾的日子,你不当瞪眼着他们受苦;他们遭灾的日子,你不当伸手抢他们的财物;

14 你不当站在岔口剪除他们中间逃脱的;他们遭难的日子,你不当将他们剩下的人交付仇敌。

15 耶和华降罚的日子临近万国。你怎样行,他也必照样向你行;你的报应必归到你上。

16 你们犹大人在我怎样了苦杯,万国也必照样常常地;且且咽,他们就归於无有。

17 在锡安必有逃脱的人,那也必成雅各家必得原有的产业。

18 雅各家必成为大;约瑟家必为焰;以扫家必如碎秸;必将他烧着吞灭。以扫家必无馀剩的。这是耶和华的。

19 地的人必得以扫;高原的人必得非利士地,也得以法莲地和撒玛利亚地;便雅悯人必得基列。

20 在迦人中被掳的以色列众人必得地直到撒勒法;在西法拉中被掳的耶路撒冷人必得地的城邑。

21 必有拯救者上到锡安,审判以扫;国度就归耶和华了。

10580. 'And Jehovah said, Behold, there is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock' means a state of faith in God. This is clear from the meaning of 'a place' as a state, dealt with in 2625, 2837, 3356, 3387, 4321, 4882, 5605, 7381, 9440, 9967, 10146; and from the meaning of 'the rock' as faith, dealt with in 8581, 10438, the reason why a state of faith in God is meant being that the words 'a place by Me' are used. No one can know except from the internal sense that this is the meaning of these words, thus unless he knows what it is that 'a place' means and what it is that 'the rock' means in that sense. But for the internal sense what would the declaration that there was a place by Jehovah on the rock mean? It would mean that Jehovah dwelt there and was providing Moses a place by Him; but in fact Jehovah dwells in heaven among angels, and in the Church among people. The meaning of 'the rock' as faith has its origin in the things that appear in the next life; those ruled by faith dwell there on rocks, but those governed by love dwell on mountains. The rocks there are stony in appearance; but not so the mountains, because they are raised up masses of earth. This is where the meaning of 'the rock' as faith comes from.
