1 Mose 20

പഠനം

   

1 Und Abraham brach auf von dannen nach dem Lande des Südens und wohnte zwischen Kades und Sur; und er hielt sich auf zu Gerar.

2 Und Abraham sagte von Sara, seinem Weibe: Sie ist meine Schwester. Da sandte Abimelech, (Abimelech war ein gemeinschaftlicher Titel aller Könige der Philister) der König von Gerar, und ließ Sara holen. (W. nahm Sara)

3 Und Gott kam zu Abimelech in einem Traume der Nacht und sprach zu ihm: Siehe, du bist des Todes wegen des Weibes, das du genommen hast; denn sie ist eines Mannes Eheweib.

4 Abimelech aber hatte sich ihr nicht genaht; und er sprach: Herr, willst du auch eine gerechte Nation töten?

5 Hat er nicht zu mir gesagt: Sie ist meine Schwester? Und auch sie selbst hat gesagt: Er ist mein Bruder. In Lauterkeit meines Herzens und in Unschuld meiner Hände habe ich dies getan.

6 Und Gott sprach zu ihm im Traume: Auch ich weiß, daß du in Lauterkeit deines Herzens dies getan hast, und so habe ich dich auch davon abgehalten, gegen mich zu sündigen; darum habe ich dir nicht gestattet, sie zu berühren.

7 Und nun gib das Weib des Mannes zurück; denn er ist ein Prophet und wird für dich bitten, und du wirst am Leben bleiben. Wenn du sie aber nicht zurückgibst, so wisse, daß du gewißlich sterben wirst, du und alles, was dein ist!

8 Und Abimelech stand des Morgens früh auf und rief alle seine Knechte und redete alle diese Worte vor ihren Ohren; und die Männer fürchteten sich sehr.

9 Und Abimelech rief Abraham und sprach zu ihm: Was hast du uns angetan! Und was habe ich wider dich gesündigt, daß du über mich und über mein eich eine große Sünde gebracht hast? Dinge, die nicht getan werden sollten, hast du mir angetan.

10 Und Abimelech sprach zu Abraham: Was hast du beabsichtigt, daß du dies getan hast?

11 Und Abraham sprach: Weil ich mir sagte: Gewiß ist keine (O. Es ist gar keine) Gottesfurcht an diesem Orte, und sie werden mich töten um meines Weibes willen.

12 Auch ist sie wahrhaftig meine Schwester, die Tochter meines Vaters, nur nicht die Tochter meiner Mutter; und sie ist mein Weib geworden.

13 Und es geschah, als Gott mich wandern ließ aus meines Vaters Hause, da sprach ich zu ihr: Dies sei deine Güte, die du mir erweisen mögest; an jedem Orte, wohin wir kommen werden, sage von mir: Er ist mein Bruder.

14 Da nahm Abimelech Kleinvieh und inder und Knechte und Mägde und gab sie dem Abraham; und er gab ihm Sara, sein Weib, zurück.

15 Und Abimelech sprach: Siehe, mein Land ist vor dir; wohne, wo es gut ist in deinen Augen.

16 Und zu Sara sprach er: Siehe, ich habe deinem Bruder tausend Silbersekel gegeben; siehe, das sei dir eine Augendecke vor allen, die bei dir sind, und in Bezug auf alles ist die Sache rechtlich geschlichtet. (O. Es ist dir recht geschehen; O. und so bist du vor allen gerechtfertigt. And. üb.:… und bei allen. So wurde sie gestraft)

17 Und Abraham betete zu Gott; und Gott heilte Abimelech und sein Weib und seine Mägde, so daß sie gebaren.

18 Denn Jehova hatte um Saras, des Weibes Abrahams, willen jeden Mutterleib im Hause Abimelechs gänzlich verschlossen.

2667. The subject in verses 1-7 of this chapter has been the Lord's Human existing united to His Divine, and His Divine united to His Human, and how from that union the Lord's Human was made Divine. For what each particular verse contains, see 2649. The subject after that was the merely human rational, that it was to be separated (verse 8), because it was not in agreement with the Divine Rational (verse 9), and could not possess the same life as the Divine Rational, neither as to truth nor as to good (verse 10); that at first that separation was something over which the Lord was to grieve (verse 11), but that from the Divine He perceived that there was no other way in which the human race could have been saved (verse 12). What follows next has to do with those who belonged to the spiritual Church and who are meant by Hagar's son after he had been sent away.

Genesis 21

പഠനം

   

1 Yahweh visited Sarah as he had said, and Yahweh did to Sarah as he had spoken.

2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.

3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.

4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.

5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.

6 Sarah said, "God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me."

7 She said, "Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age."

8 The child grew, and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.

9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.

10 Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this handmaid and her son! For the son of this handmaid will not be heir with my son, Isaac."

11 The thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son.

12 God said to Abraham, "Don't let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your handmaid. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For from Isaac will your seed be called.

13 I will also make a nation of the son of the handmaid, because he is your seed."

14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.

15 The water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.

16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, "Don't let me see the death of the child." She sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.

17 God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, "What ails you, Hagar? Don't be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.

18 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him in your hand. For I will make him a great nation."

19 God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the bottle with water, and gave the boy drink.

20 God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.

21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.

22 It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.

23 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner."

24 Abraham said, "I will swear."

25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.

26 Abimelech said, "I don't know who has done this thing. Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today."

27 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.

28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.

29 Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?"

30 He said, "You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well."

31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore there.

32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.

33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of Yahweh, the Everlasting God.

34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
