Osija 8

Студија

   

1 Trubu na usta, i reci: Kao orao ide na dom Gospodnji; jer prestupiše zavet moj i otpadiše se od zakona mog.

2 Izrailj će vikati ka meni; Bože moj; poznajemo Te.

3 Izrailj je ostavio dobro; neprijatelj će ga goniti.

4 Postavljaju careve, ali ne od mene; podižu knezove, za koje ja ne znam; od srebra svog i od zlata svog grade sebi likove, da se istrebe.

5 Ostavilo te je tele tvoje, Samarijo; jarost se moja raspalila na njih; dokle se neće moći očistiti?

6 Jer je i ono od Izrailja, načinio ga je umetnik, i nije Bog; tele će samarijsko otići u komade.

7 Jer seju vetar, pa će žeti oluju; stabljike neće imati, klica neće dati brašno, da bi i dala, proždreće ga tuđinci.

8 Proždreće se Izrailj, biće među narodima kao sud na kome nema miline.

9 Jer otidoše k Asircu, divljem magarcu, koji je sam za se; Jefrem naima ljubavnike.

10 A što naimaše među narodima, ja ću ih sabrati; a veći okusiše malo radi bremena Cara nad knezovima.

11 Što umnoži Jefrem oltare da greši, biće mu oltari na greh.

12 Napisah mu velike stvari u zakonu svom; ali mu se čine kao nešto tuđe.

13 Za žrtve, koje mi prinose, prinose meso, i jedu ga; Gospod ih ne prima; sada će se opomenuti bezakonja njihova i pohodiće grehe njihove; oni će se vratiti u Misir.

14 Izrailj zaboravi Tvorca svog, i sagradi dvorove, i Juda umnoži tvrde gradove; ali ću pustiti oganj u gradove ovom, i spaliće dvorove onom.

Apocalypse Revealed #391

Проучи го овој пасус

  
/ 962  
  

391. And to them were given seven trumpets. This symbolizes an examination and exposure of the state of the church and consequent life of people caught up in faith alone.

Trumpets here have the same symbolism as sounding, because the angels used them to produce the sound, and to sound with trumpets means, symbolically, to call together for ceremonial occasions, of which there were a variety. Here it means to examine and expose what people caught up in faith alone are like, thus what people of the Protestant Reformed churches are like today.

It should be known that the church in the Protestant Reformed world today is divided into three branches, originating from three leaders, namely Luther, Calvin, and Melanchthon; and although these three branches differ on various points, they all agree on this one, that a person is justified by faith apart from works of the law - a remarkable circumstance.

That sounding with trumpets means, symbolically, to call together will be seen in no. 397 below.
