Exodus 22

പഠനം

   

1 Jestliže by kdo ukradl vola aneb dobytče, a zabil by je neb prodal: pět volů navrátí za toho vola, a čtvero dobytčat za to dobytče.

2 (Jestliže by zloděj zastižen byl při podkopávání a ubit jsa, umřel by: ten, kdo ho ranil, nebude vinen smrtí.

3 Pakli by to ve dne učinil, smrtí vinen bude.) Bez prodlévání ať navrátí; pakli nemá co, prodán bude pro zlodějství své.

4 Jestliže nalezena bude v rukou jeho krádež, buď vůl, neb osel, buď dobytče ještě živé, dvénásobně navrátí.

5 Jestliže by kdo spásl pole neb vinici, a vpustil hovado své, aby se páslo na cizím poli: což nejlepšího má na poli svém neb vinici své, tím tu škodu nahradí.

6 Vyšel-li by oheň, a chytilo by se trní, a shořel by stoh neb stojaté obilí neb pole: nahradí ten, kdož zapálil, to, což shořelo.

7 Kdyby někdo dal schovati bližnímu svému peníze neb nádoby, a bylo by ukradeno z domu muže toho, jestliže nalezen bude zloděj, dvojnásobně navrátí.

8 Pakli nebude zloděj nalezen, tedy postaven bude pán domu toho před soudce, a přisáhne, že nevztáhl ruky své na věc bližního svého.

9 O všelijakou věc, o niž by byla nesnáz, buď o vola neb osla, dobytče neb roucho, pro všelikou věc ztracenou, když by kdo pravil, že to jest: před soudce přijde pře obou dvou; ten, kohož oni vinného usoudí, dvojnásobně navrátí bližnímu svému.

10 Jestliže by kdo dal bližnímu svému k chování osla neb vola, neb dobytče a jakékoli hovado, a umřelo by neb ochromělo, neb zajato bylo, že žádný neviděl:

11 Přísaha Hospodinova vkročí mezi oba, že nevztáhl ruky své k věci bližního svého; a přijme jej v tom pán věci té, a onen nebude povinen navraceti.

12 Pakli by krádeží vzato bylo od něho, navrátiti zase má pánu jeho.

13 Pakli by udáveno bylo, postaví svědka a nebude povinen upláceti toho, což udáveno jest.

14 Kdyby pak někdo vypůjčil něčeho od bližního svého, a ochromělo by aneb umřelo v nepřítomnosti pána jeho, bez výmluvy navrátí zase.

15 Pakli by pán jeho byl s ním, není povinen platiti, poněvadž bylo za peníze najaté, a přišlo za mzdu svou.

16 Jestliže by kdo namluvil pannu, kteráž není zasnoubena, a spal by s ní: dáť jí věno, a vezme ji sobě za manželku.

17 Pakli by otec její nikoli nechtěl jí dáti jemu, odváží stříbra podlé obyčeje věna panenského.

18 Čarodějnici nedáš živu býti.

19 Kdo by koli scházel se s hovadem, smrtí ať umře.

20 Kdo by obětoval bohům, kromě samému Hospodinu, jako proklatý vyhlazen bude.

21 Příchozímu neučiníš křivdy, aniž utiskneš ho; nebo příchozí byli jste v zemi Egyptské.

22 Žádné vdovy neb sirotka trápiti nebudete.

23 Pakli bez lítosti trápiti je budete, a oni by volali ke mně, vězte, že vyslyším křik jejich.

24 A rozhněvá se prchlivost má, i zbiji vás mečem; a budou ženy vaše vdovy a děti vaši sirotci.

25 Půjčíš-li peněz lidu mému chudému, kterýž jest s tebou: nebudeš jemu jako lichevník, aniž ho lichvou obtížíš.

26 Pakli v základu vezmeš roucho bližního svého, do západu slunce jemu je navrátíš.

27 Nebo ten jediný má oděv, to jest roucho, jímž přikrývá tělo své, a na němž spí. Když bude volati ke mně, tedy uslyším, nebo jsem milosrdný.

28 Soudcům nebudeš utrhati, a knížeti lidu svého zlořečiti nebudeš.

29 Z hojnosti obilí, a tekutých věcí svých neobmeškáš prvotin obětovati. Prvorozeného z synů svých mně dáš.

30 Tak učiníš s volem svým a s dobytkem svým: Sedm dní bude s matkou svou, dne pak osmého mně je dáš.

31 Lid svatý budete mi, a nebudete jísti masa z udáveného na poli; psu je vržete.

9086. 'And an ox or an ass falls into it' means, which perverts good or truth in the natural. This is clear from the meaning of 'falling' as perverting, dealt with below; from the meaning of 'an ox' as an affection for evil in the natural, thus evil there, dealt with above in 9065; and from the meaning of 'an ass' as truth in the natural, dealt with in 2781, 5492, 5741, 7024, 8078. The fact that 'falling into a pit' - when these words refer to good and truth in the natural, which are meant by 'an ox and an ass' - means perverting is evident from the contents of the next verse. These describe amendment made through truth, which can be accomplished with forms of good or truths that have been perverted, but not with those which have been wiped out. For when good or truth is perverted it still remains, but is misrepresented. 'Falling' also means slipping through error.

[2] Because this was meant by 'falling into a pit', the Lord therefore said,

Which of you, having an ass or an ox that has fallen into a well, will not immediately pull it out on the sabbath day? Luke 14:5.

The Lord said this when He healed someone with dropsy on the sabbath day. In that Church the sabbath day was the holiest because it was a sign of the heavenly marriage, which is the joining together of goodness and truth from the Lord, 8495, 8510. This explains why healings were performed by the Lord on the sabbath day; for healing implied the healing of spiritual life, and dropsy implied the perversion of truth and good, so that the healing of perverted truth implied amendment and restoration. All the Lord's miracles implied and were signs of states of the Church, 8364, as is true of all Divine miracles in general, 7337. So it is then that the Lord said, 'Which of you, having an ass or an ox that has fallen into a well, will not immediately pull it out on the sabbath day?' by which in the spiritual sense what has just been stated was meant. For whatever the Lord spoke He spoke from the Divine; and since it came from the Divine every detail has an internal sense within it, 9049, 9063 (end). 'A well' in what He said is similar in meaning to 'a pit', namely falsity, 1688. And since 'a pit' means falsity the Lord also said, when talking about the falsities of the Church,

When the blind leads the blind both fall into a pit. Matthew 15:14.

'The blind' is someone with wrong ideas, and 'falling into a pit' means perverting truth. These words were used to make a comparison; but all comparisons in the Word were drawn from among objects used as signs of spiritual things, 3579, 8989.

[3] There are people who believe that the Divine holiness which the Word contains lies hidden on a level no higher than the meaning apparent in the letter. Such people's vision of holiness in these words spoken by the Lord and in everything else in the Word arises solely from their belief that everything there is Divinely inspired, and that the things which no one can explain are arcana known only to God. But people who do not share that belief spurn the Word, solely because of its style, which is in appearance less polished than a style adopted to conform to the spirit of the age, such as that adopted by very many ancient and modern authors. But let these people know that Divine holiness lies in each and every detail of the Word. It consists however in this, that each and every detail has the Lord as its subject, also His kingdom and Church. All its details are extremely holy because they are Divine, received from the Lord, and so hold eternal life within them, as accords with the Lord's words in John,

The words that I speak to you, they are spirit and they are life. John 6:63.

But the things that are Divine and holy are clearly visible to angels in heaven because they do not understand the Word in a natural way according to the literal sense, only in a spiritual way according to the internal sense. The latter sense could also be understood by people in the world if they were to lead an angelic life, that is to say, a life of faith and love. The things contained in the internal sense of the Word are one and the same as those which the genuine teachings of the Church present. Those which the genuine teachings of the Church present are the Lord, faith in Him, love to Him, and a love of the good that comes from Him, which love is charity towards the neighbour, 6709, 6710, 8123. Those who lead this angelic life, and no others at all, are enlightened by the Lord and see the holy things of the Word; see Preface to Genesis 18.
