Jeremias 21

Студија

   

1 A palavra que veio a Jeremias da parte do Senhor, quando o rei Zedequias lhe enviou Pasur, filho de Malquias, e Sofonias, filho de Maaséias, o sacerdote, dizendo:

2 Pergunta agora por nós ao Senhor, por que Nabucodonozor, rei de Babilônia, guerreia contra nós; porventura o Senhor nos tratará segundo todas as suas maravilhas, e fará que o rei se retire de nós.

3 Então Jeremias lhes respondeu: Assim direis a Zedequias:

4 Assim diz o Senhor, o Deus de Israel: Eis que virarei contra vos as armas de guerra, que estão nas vossas mãos, com que vós pelejais contra o rei de Babilônia e contra os caldeus, que vos estão sitiando ao redor dos muros, e ajuntá-los-ei no meio desta cidade.

5 E eu mesmo pelejarei contra vós com mão estendida, e com braço forte, e em ira, e em furor, e em grande indignação.

6 E ferirei os habitantes desta cidade, tanto os homens como os animais; de grande peste morrerão.

7 E depois disso, diz o Senhor, entregarei Zedequias, rei de Judá, e seus servos, e o povo, e os que desta cidade restarem da peste, e da espada, e da fome, sim entregá-los-ei na mão de Nabucodonozor, rei de Babilônia, e na mão de seus inimigos, e na mão dos que procuram tirar-lhes a vida; e ele os passará ao fio da espada; não os poupará, nem se compadecerá, nem terá misericordia.

8 E a este povo dirás: Assim diz o Senhor: Eis que ponho diante de vós o caminho da vida e o caminho da morte.

9 O que ficar nesta cidade há de morrer à espada, ou de fome, ou de peste; mas o que sair, e se render aos caldeus, que vos cercam, viverá, e terá a sua vida por despojo.

10 Porque pus o meu rosto contra esta cidade para mal, e não para bem, diz o Senhor; na mão do rei de Babilônia se entregará, e ele a queimará a fogo.

11 E à casa do rei de Judá dirás: Ouvi a palavra do Senhor:

12 O casa de Davi, assim diz o Senhor: Executai justiça pela manhã, e livrai o espoliado da mão do opressor, para que não saia o meu furor como fogo, e se acenda, sem que haja quem o apague, por causa da maldade de vossas ações.

13 Eis que eu sou contra ti, ó moradora do vale, ó rocha da campina, diz o Senhor; contra vós que dizeis: Quem descerá contra nós? ou: Quem entrará nas nossas moradas?

14 E eu vos castigarei segundo o fruto das vossas ações, diz o Senhor; e no seu bosque acenderei fogo que consumirá a tudo o que está em redor dela.

Editor's Introduction: In this work, Emanuel Swedenborg outlined the internal meaning of all the Prophetical Books, from Isaiah to Malachi, and the Psalms, and then the first 16 chapters of Genesis. It provides a survey of the inner meaning of a substantial portion of the Old Testament, in one place.

This work was written by Swedenborg in Latin, in 1761. It was translated from Latin into English by Rev. J. E. Schreck, and this translation was published by the Swedenborg Foundation, in New York, in 1900. This modified version of Schreck's 1900 translation does not update the text; instead just modifying numbering and formatting for clarity of use online.

Each chapter of each book of the Prophets has one corresponding numbered section in Swedenborg's explanation of its inner meaning, or internal sense. Swedenborg listed the verses that relate to each outlined point. We have added hyperlinks to the verse references, shown to the left of each outlined point. The Psalms and initial chapters of Genesis are treated in a similar fashion.

This work was not published by Swedenborg, but it is consistent with other more detailed treatments made in his published works. For example, Swedenborg refers to this work in Doctrine of the Lord 37.

Readers may also find these comparisons useful:

- No. 124 of this work, explaining Ezekiel 1, with The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Sacred Scripture 97,

- Nos. 161, 162, explaining Ezekiel 38, and 39, with Apocalypse Revealed 859,

- No. 236, explaining Zechariah 4, with Apocalypse Revealed 43, and

- Nos. 244-246 of this work, explaining Zechariah 12, 13, 14, with Apocalypse Revealed 707.

In the manuscript, at the beginning, Swedenborg wrote out a list of works that he intended to write and publish. While it's clearly related to the project of outlining the internal meaning of the Prophets, Psalms, and historical parts of the Word, it seems to be an independent list. We reproduce Rev. Schreck's translation of that list here:

"To Be Published:

1. Concerning the Lord.

2. Concerning the Sacred Scripture or concerning the Word of the Lord.

3. All things of religion and of the worship of God in one complex in the Decalogue.

4. Concerning Faith.

5. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine Providence.

6. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine omnipotence and omniscience, and concerning infinity and eternity.

7. Angelic wisdom concerning life.

8. Angelic wisdom concerning the Divine love and Divine wisdom."

Фусноти:

1. In the original Latin manuscript, Swedenborg cross-referred the outlined internal sense to a more general Table of Subjects, shown above. In the following passages, those references are shown in parentheses, e.g. (3) would refer to subject number 3 above. We received the Latin text for this "front matter" from the Heavenly Doctrines Publishing Foundation.

2. Editor's Note (Schreck): No. 14 is crossed out by Swedenborg in his MS., and is never referred to in the text. It reads, "The state of unition with His Divine," which is the same as No. 10.

Doctrine of the Lord 3 for an outline of a similar set of themes that form the internal sense of the prophetical books.
