പഠനം

   

1 Нјкогда Дина, дочь Ліи, которую она родила Іакову, вышла посмотрјть дочерей земли той.

2 Увидјлъ ее Сихемъ, сынъ Эммора, Хиввеянина, князя земли той, и взялъ ее, и былъ съ нею, и сдјлалъ ей насиліе.

3 И прилјпилась душа его къ Динј, дочери Іаковлевой, и онъ полюбилъ дјвицу, и говорилъ по сердцу дјвицы.

4 И сказалъ Сихемъ Эммору, отцу своему, говоря: возьми мнј эту дјвицу въ жену.

5 Іаковъ слышалъ, что онъ обезчестилъ Дину, дочь его; но какъ сыновья его были со скотомъ его въ полј, то Іаковъ молчалъ, пока не пришли они.

6 И пришелъ Эмморъ, отецъ Сихемовъ, къ Іакову, поговорить съ нимъ.

7 Сыновъя же Іаковлевы, услышавъ, пришли съ поля, и огорчились, и воспылаъ у нихъ сильный гнјвъ, потому, что безчестіе сдјлалъ онъ Израилю, бывъ съ дочерью Іакова; такъ не надлежало бы дјлать.

8 Эмморъ сталъ говорить имъ, и сказалъ: Сихемъ, сынъ мой, прилјпился душею къ дочери вашей; дайте ее въ жену ему.

9 Породнитесъ съ нами; отдавайте за насъ дочерей вашихъ, и нашихъ дочерей берите себј.

10 Съ нами и живите, земля сія предъ вами, живите на ней, и производите на ней промыслъ, пріобрјтайте ее во владјніе.

11 Сихемъ также сказалъ отцу ея и братьямъ ея: только бы мнј обрјсти благоволеніе въ очахъ вашихъ, я дамъ, что ни скажете мнј.

12 Назначьте самое большое вјно и дары, я дамъ, что ни скажете мнј: только дайте мнј дјвицу въ жену.

13 И отвјчали сыновья Іакова Сихему и Эммору, отцу его, съ лукавствомъ, за то, что онъ обезчестилъ Дину, сестру ихъ, и говорили;

14 и сказали имъ: не можемъ того сдјлать, чтобы выдать сестру нашу за человјка, который не обрјзанъ; ибо это у насъ безчестно.

15 Впрочемъ мы согласимся съ вами на семъ условіи, если вы будете подобны намъ въ томъ, чтобы у васъ весь мужскій полъ былъ обрјзанъ.

16 Тогда будемъ отдавать за васъ дочерей нашихъ, и брать за себя вашихъ дочерей, и будемъ жить съ вами, а составимъ одинъ народъ.

17 А если не послушаетесь насъ въ томъ, чтобы обрјзаться, то мы возьмемъ сестру свою, и удалимся.

18 И былъ Эмморъ доволенъ словами ихъ, и Сихемъ, сынъ Эмморовъ, былъ доволенъ.

19 Юноша не умедлилъ исполнить сіе; потому что любилъ дочь Іаковлеву. Притомъ же онъ болје всјхъ уважаемъ былъ въ дому отца своего.

20 И пришелъ Эмморъ и сынъ его Сихемъ къ воротамъ города своего, и стали говорить жителямъ города своего, и сказали:

21 сіи люди мирно живутъ съ нами; пусть они селятся на землј, и производятъ на ней промыслы; земля же, видите, пространна во всј стороны передъ ними. Станемъ брать дочерей ихъ себј въ жены, и нашихъ дочерей выдавать за нихъ.

22 Только сіи люди соглашаются жить съ нами, и быть однимъ народомъ, на томъ условіи, чтобы и у насъ обрјзанъ былъ весь мужескій полъ, какъ они обрјзаны.

23 Не намъ ли достанутся стада ихъ, и имјніе ихъ, и весь скотъ ихъ? только согласимся съ ними, чтобы они жили у насъ.

24 И послушались Эммора и сына его Сихема всј выходящіе изъ воротъ города его, и всякій выходящій изъ воротъ города его, мужескаго пола, былъ обрјзанъ.

25 Но на третій день, когда они были въ болјзни, два сына Іакова, Симеонъ и Левій, братья Дины, взяли каждый свой мечъ, напали нечаянно на городъ, и перебили весь мужескій полъ;

26 и самаго Эммора и Сихема, сына его, убили остріемъ меча; и взяли Дину изъ дома Сихемова и вышли.

27 Сыновья Іакова пришли къ убитымъ, и разграбили городъ, за то, что они обезчестили сестру ихъ.

28 Они взяли мелкій и крупный скотъ ихъ, и ословъ ихъ, и что ни было въ городј, и что ни было въ полј.

29 И все богатство ихъ, и всјхъ дјтей ихъ, и женъ ихъ взяли въ плјнъ, и разграбили также и все, что было въ домахъ.

30 И сказалъ Іаковъ Симеону и Левію: вы нарушили покой мой, сдјлавъ меня ненавистнымъ между жителями сей земли, между Хананеями и Ферезеями. У меня людей мало, соберутся противъ меня, поразятъ меня, и истребленъ буду я и домъ мой.

31 Но они сказали: надлежало ли поступать съ сестрою нашею, какъ съ блудницею!

4316. That in the internal historical sense by “even unto this day” is signified that they are such forever, is evident from the signification of “even unto this day,” which where mentioned in the Word means forever (see n. 2838). That this posterity was such from the earliest times, may be seen from the sons of Jacob themselves-from Reuben, in that he “lay with Bilhah his father’s concubine” (Genesis 35:22); from Simeon and Levi, who killed Hamor and Shechem, and all the men of their city; and that the rest of his sons came upon the pierced and plundered the city (Genesis 34:1-31). Therefore Jacob, then Israel, before he died, spoke of them thus: of Reuben, “Thou shalt not excel, because thou wentest up on thy father’s bed; then didst thou make thyself unworthy; he went up on my couch” (Genesis 49:3-4); and of Simeon and Levi, “Into their secret let not my soul come, with their assembly let not my glory be united; for in their anger they slew a man, and in their set purpose they houghed an ox. Cursed be their anger, for it was vehement, and their fury, for it was grievous; I will divide them among Jacob, and scatter them among Israel” (Genesis 49:5-7).

[2] The quality of Judah may also be seen from the fact that he took a Canaanitess for his wife (Genesis 38:1-2), which nevertheless was contrary to what had been commanded, as may be seen from Abraham’s words to his servant, whom he sent to betroth Rebekah to his son Isaac (Genesis 24:3, 6); and from many other passages in the Word. A third part of that nation was from this stock, that is, from his son Shelah who was born of the Canaanitish mother (Genesis 38:11; 46:12; see Numbers 26:20; 1 Chron. 4:21-22). The same may be further seen from the wicked deed of these and the other sons of Jacob against Joseph (Genesis 37:18-36). The quality of their posterity in Egypt is manifest from what is related of them when they were in the wilderness, where they were so often rebellious; and afterwards in the land of Canaan, where they so frequently became idolaters. Lastly, their quality in the Lord’s time has been shown just above (see n. 4314); and what they are at this day is known, namely, opposed to the Lord, to the things of the church, to charity toward the neighbor, and to one another. From all this it may be seen that this nation has ever been of this nature. Let no one therefore any longer entertain the opinion that there was any church among them, or more than a representative of a church, and still less that they were chosen in preference to others.

18 They saw him afar off, and before he came near to them, they conspired against him to kill him.

19 They said one to another, "Behold, this dreamer comes.

20 Come now therefore, and let's kill him, and cast him into one of the pits, and we will say, 'An evil animal has devoured him.' We will see what will become of his dreams."

21 Reuben heard it, and delivered him out of their hand, and said, "Let's not take his life."

22 Reuben said to them, "Shed no blood. Throw him into this pit that is in the wilderness, but lay no hand on him"--that he might deliver him out of their hand, to restore him to his father.

23 It happened, when Joseph came to his brothers, that they stripped Joseph of his coat, the coat of many colors that was on him;

24 and they took him, and threw him into the pit. The pit was empty. There was no water in it.

25 They sat down to eat bread, and they lifted up their eyes and looked, and saw a caravan of Ishmaelites was coming from Gilead, with their camels bearing spices and balm and myrrh, going to carry it down to Egypt.

26 Judah said to his brothers, "What profit is it if we kill our brother and conceal his blood?

27 Come, and let's sell him to the Ishmaelites, and not let our hand be on him; for he is our brother, our flesh." His brothers listened to him.

28 Midianites who were merchants passed by, and they drew and lifted up Joseph out of the pit, and sold Joseph to the Ishmaelites for twenty pieces of silver. They brought Joseph into Egypt.

29 Reuben returned to the pit; and saw that Joseph wasn't in the pit; and he tore his clothes.

30 He returned to his brothers, and said, "The child is no more; and I, where will I go?"

31 They took Joseph's coat, and killed a male goat, and dipped the coat in the blood.

32 They took the coat of many colors, and they brought it to their father, and said, "We have found this. Examine it, now, whether it is your son's coat or not."

33 He recognized it, and said, "It is my son's coat. An evil animal has devoured him. Joseph is without doubt torn in pieces."

34 Jacob tore his clothes, and put sackcloth on his waist, and mourned for his son many days.

35 All his sons and all his daughters rose up to comfort him, but he refused to be comforted. He said, "For I will go down to Sheol to my son mourning." His father wept for him.

36 The Midianites sold him into Egypt to Potiphar, an officer of Pharaoh's, the captain of the guard.
