പഠനം

   

1 Kaj jen estas la jugxoj, kiujn vi proponos al ili:

2 Se vi acxetos sklavon Hebreon, li servu dum ses jaroj; sed en la sepa li eliru libera senpage.

3 Se li venis sola, li eliru sola; se li estas edzigita, tiam lia edzino eliru kune kun li.

4 Se lia sinjoro donis al li edzinon kaj sxi naskis al li filojn aux filinojn, tiam la edzino kaj sxiaj infanoj restu cxe sia sinjoro, kaj li eliru sola.

5 Sed se la sklavo diros:Mi amas mian sinjoron, mian edzinon, kaj miajn infanojn, mi ne volas liberigxi;

6 tiam lia sinjoro alkonduku lin antaux la potenculojn kaj starigu lin apud la pordo aux apud la fosto, kaj lia sinjoro trapiku lian orelon per aleno, kaj li estu lia sklavo por cxiam.

7 Kaj se iu vendos sian filinon kiel sklavinon, sxi ne eliru kiel eliras la sklavoj.

8 Se sxi ne placxas al sia sinjoro, al kiu sxi estis fordonita, tiam li donu al sxi la eblon elacxetigxi; al fremda popolo sxin vendi li ne havas la rajton, cxar li kondutis ne honeste kontraux sxi.

9 Se iu transdonos sxin al sia filo, li agu kun sxi laux la rajto de filinoj.

10 Se li prenos por li alian edzinon, tiam nutrajxo, vestoj, kaj edzina vivo ne devas esti rifuzataj al sxi.

11 Kaj se tiujn tri aferojn li ne faros por sxi, tiam sxi eliru senpage, sen elacxeto.

12 Se iu batos homon kaj tiu mortos, li estu mortigita.

13 Sed se li ne agis malbonintence, nur Dio pusxis tiun sub lian manon, Mi difinas al vi lokon, kien li povas forkuri.

14 Sed se iu intence mortigis sian proksimulon per ruzo, tiam ecx de Mia altaro forprenu lin, ke li mortu.

15 Kiu batas sian patron aux sian patrinon, tiu devas esti mortigita.

16 Kaj se iu sxtelas homon por vendi lin, aux oni trovas tiun en lia mano, li devas esti mortigita.

17 Kiu malbenas sian patron aux sian patrinon, tiu devas esti mortigita.

18 Se homoj kverelos, kaj unu batos la alian per sxtono aux per pugno kaj tiu ne mortos, sed devos kusxi en lito:

19 se li levigxos kaj irados ekstere per apogilo, tiam la batinto estu senkulpa; li nur kompensu al li lian malliberigitecon kaj zorgu pri lia kuracado.

20 Se iu batos sian sklavon aux sian sklavinon per bastono, kaj tiu mortos sub lia mano, tiam oni devas lin puni;

21 sed se tiu restos viva dum unu aux du tagoj, tiam oni ne devas lin puni; cxar tio estas lia mono.

22 Se viroj kverelos kaj frapos gravedan virinon, kaj sxi abortos, sed ne farigxos malfelicxo, tiam oni punu lin per monpuno, kian metos sur lin la edzo de la virino, kaj li pagu gxin laux decido de jugxantoj.

23 Sed se farigxos malfelicxo, tiam donu animon pro animo,

24 okulon pro okulo, denton pro dento, manon pro mano, piedon pro piedo,

25 bruldifekton pro bruldifekto, vundon pro vundo, kontuzon pro kontuzo.

26 Kaj se iu batos okulon de sia sklavo aux de sia sklavino kaj difektos gxin, tiam li forliberigu tiun kompense pro la okulo.

27 Kaj se li elbatos denton de sia sklavo aux denton de sia sklavino, li forliberigu tiun kompense pro la dento.

28 Se bovo kornobatos viron aux virinon kaj tiu mortos, tiam oni sxtonmortigu la bovon kaj gxia viando ne estu mangxata, sed la mastro de la bovo restu senkulpa.

29 Sed se la bovo estis kornobatema antauxe kaj oni tion sciigis al gxia mastro kaj li gxin ne gardis kaj gxi mortigis viron aux virinon, tiam la bovon oni sxtonmortigu kaj gxian mastron oni mortigu.

30 Se oni metos sur lin elacxeton, tiam li donu pro sia animo tian elacxetan sumon, kia estos metita sur lin.

31 Se filo aux filino estos kornobatita, oni agu kun li en la sama maniero.

32 Se iun sklavon aux sklavinon kornobatos la bovo, tiam tridek sikloj da mono devas esti pagitaj al ties mastro kaj la bovo devas esti sxtonmortigita.

33 Se iu malfermos kavon, aux elfosos kavon, kaj ne kovros gxin, kaj falos tien bovo aux azeno,

34 tiam la mastro de la kavo devas kompensi per mono al gxia mastro, kaj la kadavro apartenu al li.

35 Se la bovo de iu homo kornobatos bovon de lia proksimulo tiel, ke gxi mortos, tiam ili vendu la vivan bovon kaj dividu inter si egalparte la monon pro gxi, kaj ankaux la kadavron ili dividu.

36 Sed se oni sciis, ke la bovo estis kornobatema antauxe, kaj gxia mastro gxin ne gardis, tiam ili pagu bovon pro la bovo, kaj la kadavro apartenu al li.

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.

Exodus 21

പഠനം

   

1 "Now these are the ordinances which you shall set before them.

2 "If you buy a Hebrew servant, he shall serve six years and in the seventh he shall go out free without paying anything.

3 If he comes in by himself, he shall go out by himself. If he is married, then his wife shall go out with him.

4 If his master gives him a wife and she bears him sons or daughters, the wife and her children shall be her master's, and he shall go out by himself.

5 But if the servant shall plainly say, 'I love my master, my wife, and my children. I will not go out free;'

6 then his master shall bring him to God, and shall bring him to the door or to the doorpost, and his master shall bore his ear through with an awl, and he shall serve him for ever.

7 "If a man sells his daughter to be a female servant, she shall not go out as the male servants do.

8 If she doesn't please her master, who has married her to himself, then he shall let her be redeemed. He shall have no right to sell her to a foreign people, since he has dealt deceitfully with her.

9 If he marries her to his son, he shall deal with her as a daughter.

10 If he takes another wife to himself, he shall not diminish her food, her clothing, and her marital rights.

11 If he doesn't do these three things for her, she may go free without paying any money.

12 "One who strikes a man so that he dies shall surely be put to death,

13 but not if it is unintentional, but God allows it to happen: then I will appoint you a place where he shall flee.

14 If a man schemes and comes presumptuously on his neighbor to kill him, you shall take him from my altar, that he may die.

15 "Anyone who attacks his father or his mother shall be surely put to death.

16 "Anyone who kidnaps someone and sells him, or if he is found in his hand, he shall surely be put to death.

17 "Anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death.

18 "If men quarrel and one strikes the other with a stone, or with his fist, and he doesn't die, but is confined to bed;

19 if he rises again and walks around with his staff, then he who struck him shall be cleared: only he shall pay for the loss of his time, and shall provide for his healing until he is thoroughly healed.

20 "If a man strikes his servant or his maid with a rod, and he dies under his hand, he shall surely be punished.

21 Notwithstanding, if he gets up after a day or two, he shall not be punished, for he is his property.

22 "If men fight and hurt a pregnant woman so that she gives birth prematurely, and yet no harm follows, he shall be surely fined as much as the woman's husband demands and the judges allow.

23 But if any harm follows, then you must take life for life,

24 eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot,

25 burning for burning, wound for wound, and bruise for bruise.

26 "If a man strikes his servant's eye, or his maid's eye, and destroys it, he shall let him go free for his eye's sake.

27 If he strikes out his male servant's tooth, or his female servant's tooth, he shall let him go free for his tooth's sake.

28 "If a bull gores a man or a woman to death, the bull shall surely be stoned, and its flesh shall not be eaten; but the owner of the bull shall not be held responsible.

29 But if the bull had a habit of goring in the past, and it has been testified to its owner, and he has not kept it in, but it has killed a man or a woman, the bull shall be stoned, and its owner shall also be put to death.

30 If a ransom is laid on him, then he shall give for the redemption of his life whatever is laid on him.

31 Whether it has gored a son or has gored a daughter, according to this judgment it shall be done to him.

32 If the bull gores a male servant or a female servant, thirty shekels of silver shall be given to their master, and the ox shall be stoned.

33 "If a man opens a pit, or if a man digs a pit and doesn't cover it, and a bull or a donkey falls into it,

34 the owner of the pit shall make it good. He shall give money to its owner, and the dead animal shall be his.

35 "If one man's bull injures another's, so that it dies, then they shall sell the live bull, and divide its price; and they shall also divide the dead animal.

36 Or if it is known that the bull was in the habit of goring in the past, and its owner has not kept it in, he shall surely pay bull for bull, and the dead animal shall be his own.
