25 Näin puhuu Herra Zebaot, Israelin Jumala, sanoen: te ja teidän vaimonne olette suullanne puhuneet ja käsillänne täyttäneet, mitä te sanoitte: meidän lupauksemme me kaiketi tahdomme pitää, jonka me taivaan kuningattarelle luvanneet olemme, että me hänelle pyhää savua suitsuttaisimme, ja juomauhria uhraisimme: te olette lupauksenne kyllä pitäneet, ja lupauksenne työllä täyttäneet.

5899. 'For a great escape' means deliverance from damnation. This is clear from the meaning of 'an escape' as deliverance from damnation, a deliverance accomplished by means of remnants, that is, by means of the forms of good and truth present with a person, stored away by the Lord in him. People who accept those forms of good and truth, that is, who allow them to be implanted in themselves interiorly, escape damnation and are among 'those who are left'. This explains why in various places in the Word where reference is made to 'those who are left', or to 'a remnant', 'an escape' is mentioned, as it is here by Joseph and also elsewhere, such as in Isaiah,

On that day the fruit of the land will be magnificence and an adornment for the escape of Israel. And it will happen, that he who remains in Zion, and he who is left in Jerusalem, will be called holy. Isaiah 4:2-3.

In the same prophet,

On that day, the remnant of Israel, and those of the house of Jacob that escaped, 1 will no more lean on him that smote them. Isaiah 10:20-22.

In the same prophet,

Moreover, those that are left of the house of Judah and who escape 2 will take root downwards and bear fruit upwards. For out of Jerusalem will go a remnant, and those who escape 3 from mount Zion. Isaiah 37:31-32.

In Ezekiel,

I will cause some to be left, in that you will have some who will have escaped from the sword among the nations when you are dispersed in the earth. Then those of you that escape will remember Me. Ezekiel 6:8-9.

In Joel,

It will happen, that everyone who calls on the name of Jehovah will escape. For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be an escape, as Jehovah has said, and among those that are left whom Jehovah is calling. Joel 2:32.

In Jeremiah,

None will escape, nor will any of the remnant of Judah be left. Jeremiah 44:12, 14.

All these places show what is meant by 'escaping', which is this: The people to escape are those who have remnants, and 'escaping' means being delivered from damnation.

Jeremiah 43

Студија

   

1 It happened that, when Jeremiah had made an end of speaking to all the people all the words of Yahweh their God, with which Yahweh their God had sent him to them, even all these words,

2 then spoke Azariah the son of Hoshaiah, and Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the proud men, saying to Jeremiah, You speak falsely: Yahweh our God has not sent you to say, You shall not go into Egypt to live there;

3 but Baruch the son of Neriah sets you on against us, to deliver us into the hand of the Chaldeans, that they may put us to death, and carry us away captive to Babylon.

4 So Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, and all the people, didn't obey the voice of Yahweh, to dwell in the land of Judah.

5 But Johanan the son of Kareah, and all the captains of the forces, took all the remnant of Judah, who were returned from all the nations where they had been driven, to live in the land of Judah;

6 the men, and the women, and the children, and the king's daughters, and every person who Nebuzaradan the captain of the guard had left with Gedaliah the son of Ahikam, the son of Shaphan; and Jeremiah the prophet, and Baruch the son of Neriah;

7 and they came into the land of Egypt; for they didn't obey the voice of Yahweh: and they came to Tahpanhes.

8 Then came the word of Yahweh to Jeremiah in Tahpanhes, saying,

9 Take great stones in your hand, and hide them in mortar in the brick work, which is at the entry of Pharaoh's house in Tahpanhes, in the sight of the men of Judah;

10 and tell them, Thus says Yahweh of Armies, the God of Israel: Behold, I will send and take Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon, my servant, and will set his throne on these stones that I have hidden; and he shall spread his royal pavilion over them.

11 He shall come, and shall strike the land of Egypt; such as are for death [shall be given] to death, and such as are for captivity to captivity, and such as are for the sword to the sword.

12 I will kindle a fire in the houses of the gods of Egypt; and he shall burn them, and carry them away captive: and he shall array himself with the land of Egypt, as a shepherd puts on his garment; and he shall go forth from there in peace.

13 He shall also break the pillars of Beth Shemesh, that is in the land of Egypt; and the houses of the gods of Egypt shall he burn with fire.
