Éxodo 6

Студија

   

1 JEHOVA respondió á Moisés: Ahora verás lo que yo haré á Faraón; porque con mano fuerte los ha de dejar ir; y con mano fuerte los ha de echar de su tierra.

2 Habló todavía Dios á Moisés, y díjole: Yo soy JEHOVA;

3 Y aparecí á Abraham, á Isaac y á Jacob bajo el nombre de Dios Omnipotente, mas en mi nombre JEHOVA no me notifiqué á ellos.

4 Y también establecí mi pacto con ellos, de darles la tierra de Canaán, la tierra en que fueron extranjeros, y en la cual peregrinaron.

5 Y asimismo yo he oído el gemido de los hijos de Israel, á quienes hacen servir los Egipcios, y heme acordado de mi pacto.

6 Por tanto dirás á los hijos de Israel: YO JEHOVA; y yo os sacaré de debajo de las cargas de Egipto, y os libraré de su servidumbre, y os redimiré con brazo extendido, y con juicios grandes:

7 Y os tomaré por mi pueblo y seré vuestro Dios: y vosotros sabréis que yo soy Jehová vuestro Dios, que os saco de debajo de las cargas de Egipto:

8 Y os meteré en la tierra, por la cual alcé mi mano que la daría á Abraham, á Isaac y á Jacob: y yo os la daré por heredad. YO JEHOVA.

9 De esta manera habló Moisés á los hijos de Israel: mas ellos no escuchaban á Moisés á causa de la congoja de espíritu, y de la dura servidumbre.

10 Y habló Jehová á Moisés, diciendo:

11 Entra, y habla á Faraón rey de Egipto, que deje ir de su tierra á los hijos de Israel.

12 Y respondió Moisés delante de Jehová, diciendo: He aquí, los hijos de Israel no me escuchan: ¿cómo pues me escuchará Faraón, mayormente siendo yo incircunciso de labios?

13 Entonces Jehová habló á Moisés y á Aarón, y dióles mandamiento para los hijos de Israel, y para Faraón rey de Egipto, para que sacasen á los hijos de Israel de la tierra de Egipto.

14 Estas son las cabezas de las familias de sus padres. Los hijos de Rubén, el primogénito de Israel: Hanoch y Phallú, Hezrón y Carmi: estas son las familias de Rubén.

15 Los hijos de Simeón: Jemuel, y Jamín, y Ohad, y Jachîn, y Zoar, y Saúl, hijo de una Cananea: estas son las familias de Simeón.

16 Y estos son los nombres de los hijos de Leví por sus linajes: Gersón, y Coath, y Merari: Y los años de la vida de Leví fueron ciento treinta y siete años.

17 Y los hijos de Gersón: Libni, y Shimi, por sus familias.

18 Y los hijos de Coath: Amram, é Izhar, y Hebrón, y Uzziel. Y los años de la vida de Coath fueron ciento treinta y tres años.

19 Y los hijos de Merari: Mahali, y Musi: estas son las familias de Leví por sus linajes.

20 Y Amram tomó por mujer á Jochêbed su tía, la cual le parió á Aarón y á Moisés. Y los años de la vida de Amram fueron ciento treinta y siete años.

21 Y los hijos de Izhar: Cora, y Nepheg y Zithri.

22 Y los hijos de Uzziel: Misael, y Elzaphán y Zithri.

23 Y tomóse Aarón por mujer á Elisabeth, hija de Aminadab, hermana de Naasón; la cual le parió á Nadab, y á Abiú, y á Eleazar, y á Ithamar.

24 Y los hijos de Cora: Assir, y Elcana, y Abiasaph: estas son las familias de los Coritas.

25 Y Eleazar, hijo de Aarón, tomó para sí mujer de las hijas de Phutiel, la cual le parió á Phinees: Y estas son las cabezas de los padres de los Levitas por sus familias.

26 Este es aquel Aarón y aquel Moisés, á los cuales Jehová dijo: Sacad á los hijos de Israel de la tierra de Egipto por sus escuadrones.

27 Estos son los que hablaron á Faraón rey de Egipto, para sacar de Egipto á los hijos de Israel. Moisés y Aarón fueron éstos.

28 Cuando Jehová habló á Moisés en la tierra de Egipto,

29 Entonces Jehová habló á Moisés, diciendo: Yo soy JEHOVA; di á Faraón rey de Egipto todas las cosas que yo te digo á ti.

30 Y Moisés respondió delante de Jehová: He aquí, yo soy incircunciso de labios, ¿cómo pues me ha de oír Faraón?

3667. 'God Shaddai will bless you' means the temptations to which that truth and good was subjected and by means of which the joining together was effected. This is clear from the meaning of 'God Shaddai' as temptations, dealt with below, and from the meaning of 'being blessed' as a joining together, dealt with in 3504, 3514, 3530, 3565, 3584. Since Jacob' now represents the good of truth, as shown above in 3659, that good and truth is here meant by 'you'. The reason why 'God Shaddai' means temptations is that in ancient times people gave the Supreme Deity, or the Lord, various illustrious names. They used these in accordance with His attributes and in accordance with the kinds of good derived from Him, as well as in accordance with the kinds of truth, which are manifold, as everyone knows. By all those descriptive names members of the Ancient Church meant none but the one God, namely the Lord, whom they called Jehovah. But after the Church fell away from goodness and truth, and at the same time from such wisdom, they started to worship as many gods as there were descriptive names of the one God - so much so that each nation, and at length each family, acknowledged one of them as its own god. This was how so many gods came into being, who are also referred to in various places in the Word.

[2] The same happened in the family of Terah, Abraham's father, and also in Abraham's house. The fact that they worshipped other gods, see 1356, 2559, and in particular God Shaddai, 1992. And the fact that the worship of that God persisted in that house is also clear from the following places in Moses,

I appeared to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as God Shaddai, and by My name Jehovah I was not known to them. Exodus 6:3.

This explains why Abraham was told, I am God Shaddai; walk before Me and be blameless. Genesis 17:1.

And in the present case Isaac told Jacob, 'God Shaddai will bless you'. The truth of this is also quite evident from this chapter in which, after the Lord had said in a dream, 'I am Jehovah, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac', in verse 13, Jacob then said,

If God will be with me, and guard me on this road on which I am walking, and will give me bread to eat and clothing to wear, and I come back in peace to my father's house, then Jehovah will be my God. Verses 20-21.

From this it is evident that neither did the house of Jacob acknowledge Jehovah, but that Jacob would acknowledge Him as his God if He conferred benefits on him. It was just the same as it is in Christian Gentilism at the present day.

[3] But as regards the specific name God Shaddai, the Lord had been called by this in the Ancient Church in respect to temptations, and to the blessings and benefits following temptations, as shown in Volume Two, in 1992. This is why here in the internal sense 'God Shaddai' means temptations. Temptations are the means by which the conjunction of good and truth is effected - see what has been stated and shown already about temptations, in the paragraphs referred to in 2819.

Genesis 28

Студија

   

1 Isaac called Jacob, blessed him, and commanded him, "You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan.

2 Arise, go to Paddan Aram, to the house of Bethuel your mother's father. Take a wife from there from the daughters of Laban, your mother's brother.

3 May God Almighty bless you, and make you fruitful, and multiply you, that you may be a company of peoples,

4 and give you the blessing of Abraham, to you, and to your seed with you, that you may inherit the land where you travel, which God gave to Abraham."

5 Isaac sent Jacob away. He went to Paddan Aram to Laban, son of Bethuel the Syrian, Rebekah's brother, Jacob's and Esau's mother.

6 Now Esau saw that Isaac had blessed Jacob and sent him away to Paddan Aram, to take him a wife from there, and that as he blessed him he gave him a command, saying, "You shall not take a wife of the daughters of Canaan,"

7 and that Jacob obeyed his father and his mother, and was gone to Paddan Aram.

8 Esau saw that the daughters of Canaan didn't please Isaac, his father.

9 Esau went to Ishmael, and took, besides the wives that he had, Mahalath the daughter of Ishmael, Abraham's son, the sister of Nebaioth, to be his wife.

10 Jacob went out from Beersheba, and went toward Haran.

11 He came to a certain place, and stayed there all night, because the sun had set. He took one of the stones of the place, and put it under his head, and lay down in that place to sleep.

12 He dreamed. Behold, a stairway set upon the earth, and its top reached to heaven. Behold, the angels of God ascending and descending on it.

13 Behold, Yahweh stood above it, and said, "I am Yahweh, the God of Abraham your father, and the God of Isaac. The land whereon you lie, to you will I give it, and to your seed.

14 Your seed will be as the dust of the earth, and you will spread abroad to the west, and to the east, and to the north, and to the south. In you and in your seed will all the families of the earth be blessed.

15 Behold, I am with you, and will keep you, wherever you go, and will bring you again into this land. For I will not leave you, until I have done that which I have spoken of to you."

16 Jacob awakened out of his sleep, and he said, "Surely Yahweh is in this place, and I didn't know it."

17 He was afraid, and said, "How dreadful is this place! This is none other than God's house, and this is the gate of heaven."

18 Jacob rose up early in the morning, and took the stone that he had put under his head, and set it up for a pillar, and poured oil on its top.

19 He called the name of that place Bethel, but the name of the city was Luz at the first.

20 Jacob vowed a vow, saying, "If God will be with me, and will keep me in this way that I go, and will give me bread to eat, and clothing to put on,

21 so that I come again to my father's house in peace, and Yahweh will be my God,

22 then this stone, which I have set up for a pillar, will be God's house. Of all that you will give me I will surely give the tenth to you."
