Juan 1

പഠനം

1 En el principio ya era la Palabra, y aquel que es la Palabra era con el Dios, y la Palabra era Dios.

2 Este era en el principio con el Dios.

3 Todas las cosas por él fueron hechas; y sin él nada de lo que es hecho, fue hecho.

4 En él estaba la vida, y la vida era la luz de los hombres.

5 Y la luz en las tinieblas resplandece; mas las tinieblas no la comprendieron.

6 Hubo un hombre enviado de Dios, el cual se llamaba Juan.

7 Este vino por testimonio, para que diese testimonio de la luz, para que todos creyesen por él.

8 El no era la luz, sino para que diese testimonio de la luz.

9 Aquella Palabra era la luz verdadera, que alumbra a todo hombre que viene a este mundo.

10 En el mundo estaba, y el mundo fue hecho por él; y el mundo no le conoció.

11 A lo que era suyo vino, y los suyos no le recibieron.

12 Mas a todos los que le recibieron, les dio potestad de ser hechos hijos de Dios, a los que creen en su Nombre;

13 los cuales no son engendrados de sangre, ni de voluntad de carne, ni de voluntad de varón, sino de Dios.

14 Y aquella Palabra fue hecha carne, y habitó entre nosotros; (y vimos su gloria,) gloria como del Unigénito del Padre, lleno de gracia y de verdad.

15 Juan dio testimonio de él, y clamó diciendo: Este es del que yo decía: El que viene tras de mí, es antes de mí; porque es primero que yo.

16 Y de su plenitud tomamos todos, y gracia por gracia.

17 Porque la ley por Moisés fue dada, mas la gracia y la verdad por Jesús, el Cristo, fue hecha.

18 A Dios nadie le vio jamás; el Unigénito hijo, que está en el seno del Padre, él nos lo declaró.

19 Y éste es el testimonio de Juan, cuando los judíos enviaron de Jerusalén sacerdotes y levitas, que le preguntasen: ¿Tú, quién eres?

20 Y confesó, y no negó; confesó que no era el Cristo.

21 Y le preguntaron: ¿Qué pues? ¿Eres tú Elías? Dijo: No soy. ¿Eres tú el profeta? Y respondió: No.

22 Le dijeron: ¿Pues quién eres? Para que demos respuesta a los que nos enviaron. ¿Qué dices de ti mismo?

23 Dijo: Yo soy la voz del que clama en el desierto: Enderezad el camino del Señor, como Dijo el profeta Isaías.

24 Y los que habían sido enviados eran de los fariseos.

25 Y le preguntaron, y le dijeron: ¿Por qué pues bautizas, si tú no eres el Cristo, ni Elías, ni profeta?

26 Y Juan les respondió, diciendo: Yo bautizo con agua; mas en medio de vosotros ha estado, quien vosotros no conocéis;

27 éste es el que ha de venir tras mí, el cual es antes de mí; del cual yo no soy digno de desatar la correa del zapato.

28 Estas cosas acontecieron en Betábara, al otro lado del Jordán, donde Juan bautizaba.

29 El siguiente día ve Juan a Jesús que venía a él, y dice: He aquí el Cordero de Dios, que quita el pecado del mundo.

30 Este es del que dije: Tras mí viene un Varón, el cual es antes de mí; porque era primero que yo.

31 Y yo no le conocía; más para que fuese manifestado a Israel, por eso vine yo bautizando con agua.

32 Y Juan dio testimonio, diciendo: Vi al Espíritu que descendía del cielo como paloma, y permaneció sobre él.

33 Y yo no le conocía; mas el que me envió a bautizar con agua, aquel me dijo: Sobre quien vieres descender el Espíritu, y que permanece Sobre él, éste es el que bautiza con Espíritu Santo.

34 Y yo le vi, y he dado testimonio que éste es el Hijo de Dios.

35 El siguiente día otra vez estaba Juan, y dos de sus discípulos.

36 Y mirando a Jesús que andaba por allí , dijo: He aquí el Cordero de Dios.

37 Y los dos discípulos le oyeron hablar, y siguieron a Jesús.

38 Y volviéndose Jesús, y viéndolos seguirle, les dice: ¿Qué buscáis? Y ellos le dijeron: Rabí (que declarado quiere decir Maestro) ¿dónde moras?

39 Les dice: Venid y ved. Vinieron, y vieron dónde moraba, y permanecieron con él aquel día; porque era como la hora décima.

40 Era Andrés el hermano de Simón Pedro, uno de los dos que habían oído de Juan, y le habían seguido.

41 Este halló primero a su hermano Simón, y le dijo: Hemos hallado al Mesías (que declarado es, el Cristo).

42 Y le trajo a Jesús. Y mirándole Jesús, dijo: Tú eres Simón, hijo de Jonás; tú serás llamado Cefas (que quiere decir, Piedra).

43 El siguiente día quiso Jesús ir a Galilea, y halla a Felipe, al cual dijo: Sígueme.

44 Y era Felipe de Betsaida, la ciudad de Andrés y de Pedro.

45 Felipe halló a Natanael, y le dice: Hemos hallado a aquel de quien escribió Moisés en la ley, y los profetas: a Jesús, el hijo de José, de Nazaret.

46 Y le dijo Natanael: ¿De Nazaret puede haber algo bueno? Le dice Felipe: Ven y ve.

47 Jesús vio venir hacía sí a Natanael, y dijo de él: He aquí un verdadero israelita, en el cual no hay engaño.

48 Le dice Natanael: ¿De dónde me conoces? Respondió Jesús, y le dijo: Antes que Felipe te llamara, cuando estabas debajo de la higuera te vi.

49 Respondió Natanael, y le dijo: Rabí, tú eres el Hijo de Dios; tú eres el Rey de Israel.

50 Respondió Jesús y le dijo: Porque te dije, te vi debajo de la higuera, crees; cosas mayores que éstas verás.

51 Y le dice: De cierto, de cierto os digo: De aquí en adelante veréis el cielo abierto, y ángeles de Dios que suben y descienden sobre el Hijo del hombre.

277. Of Influx.

Of the influx of heaven into the world, and of the influx of the soul into all things of the body, from experience (n. 6053-6058, 6189-6215, 6307-6327, 6466-6495, 6598-6626). Nothing exists of or from itself, but from what is prior to itself, thus all things from the First (n. 4523-4524, 6040, 6056). As all things existed, they also subsist, because subsistence is perpetual existence (n. 2886, 2888, 3627-3628, 3648, 4523-4524, 6040, 6056). Influx takes place according to that order (n. 7270). Hence it is plain that all things subsist perpetually from the first esse, because they exist from it (n. 4523-4524, 6040, 6056). The all of life flows in from the First, because it is thence derived, thus from the Lord (n. 3001, 3318, 3337-3338, 3344, 3484, 3628-3629, 3741-3743, 4318-4320, 4417, 4524, 4882, 5847, 5986, 6325, 6468-6470, 6479, 9279, 10196). Every existere is from an esse, and nothing can exist unless its esse be in it (n. 4523-4524, 6040, 6056).

All things which a man thinks and wills flow into him, from experience (n. 904, 2886-2888, 4151, 4319-4320, 5846, 5848, 6189, 6191, 6194, 6197-6199, 6213, 7147, 10219). Man's ability of examining things, and of thinking and forming analytic conclusions, is from influx (n. 2888, 4319-4320). Man could not live a moment if the influx from the spiritual world were taken away from him; but still man is in freedom, from experience (n. 2887, 5849, 5854, 6321). The life which flows in from the Lord is varied according to man's state and according to reception (n. 2069, 5986, 6472, 7343). With the evil, the good which flows from the Lord is turned into evil, and the truth into falsity, from experience (n. 3643, 4632). The good and truth, which continually flow from the Lord, are so far received, as evil and falsity do not oppose their reception (n. 2411, 3142, 3147, 5828).

All good flows in from the Lord, and all evil from hell (n. 904, 4151). At this day man believes all things to be in himself and from himself, when nevertheless they inflow, as he might know from the doctrinal of the church, that all good is from heaven, and all evil from hell (n. 4249, 6193, 6206). But if he would believe as the thing is, he would not appropriate evil to himself, but cast it back from himself into hell, neither would he make good his own, and thus would not claim any merit from it (n. 6206, 6324-6325). How happy the state of man would then be, as he would view both good and evil from within, from the Lord (n. 6325). They who deny heaven, or know nothing about it, do not know there is any influx thence (n. 4322, 5649, 6193, 6479). What influx is, illustrated by comparisons (n. 6128, 6190, 9407).

Influx is spiritual, and not physical, thus it is from the spiritual world into the natural, and not from the natural world into the spiritual (n. 3219, 5119, 5259, 5427-5428, 5477, 6322, 9109-9110). Influx is through the internal man, into the external, and not contrariwise (n. 1702, 1707, 1940, 1954, 5119, 5259, 5779, 6322, 9380). Because the internal man is in the spiritual world, and the external in the natural world (n. 978, 1015, 3628, 4459, 4523-4524, 6057, 6309, 9701-9709, 10156, 10472). It appears as if influx is from externals into internals; this is a fallacy (n. 3721). Influx is into man's rational and through this into things scientific, and not contrariwise (n. 1495, 1707, 1940). The order of influx (n. 775, 880, 1096, 1495, 7270).

There is immediate influx from the Lord, and also mediate influx through the spiritual world or heaven (n. 6063, 6307, 6472, 9682-9683). The immediate influx from the Lord enters into the most single of all things (n. 6058, 6474-6478, 8717, 8728). Of the mediate influx of the Lord through heaven (n. 4067, 6982, 6985, 6996). It is effected through the spirits and angels who are adjoined to man (n. 697, 5846-5866). The Lord, by means of angels, flows into the ends from which, and for the sake of which, a man so thinks, wills, and acts (n. 1317, 1645, 5846, 5854). And thus into those things which are of conscience with man (n. 6207, 6213). But by means of spirits into the thoughts, and thence into the things of the memory (n. 4186, 5854, 5858, 6192-6193, 6198-6199, 6319). This can with difficulty be believed by man (n. 6214). The Lord inflows into firsts and at the same time into ultimates, or into inmosts and at the same time into outmosts, how (n. 5147, 5150, 6473, 7004, 7007, 7270). The influx of the Lord is into good with man, and through good into truth, and not contrariwise (n. 5482, 5649, 6027, 8685, 8701,10153). Good gives the faculty of receiving influx from the Lord, but not truth without good (n. 8321[1-2]). It is not what enters the thought, but what enters the will, that is hurtful, because this is appropriated to the man (n. 6308). The Divine in the highest is tacit and pacific, but as it descends towards lower things in man, it becomes unpacific and tumultuous, on account of the things therein being in disorder (n. 8823). The quality of the Lord's influx with the prophets (n. 6212).

There is a general influx, its quality (n. 5850). It is a continual effort of acting according to order (n. 6211). This influx takes place into the lives of animals (n. 5850). And also into the subjects of the vegetable kingdom (n. 3648). That thought is formed into speech and will into gestures with man, according to this general influx (n. 5862, 5990, 6192, 6211).

5427. 'And Joseph recognized his brothers' means that the truths of the Church were visible to the celestial of the spiritual in the light that this possessed. This is clear from the meaning of 'recognizing' as perceiving, seeing, and so being visible; from the representation of 'Joseph' as the celestial of the spiritual, dealt with already; and from the meaning of 'his brothers' as the general truths known to the Church, dealt with above in 5409, 5419. And Since 'Joseph recognized his brothers' means that those truths - the general truths known to the Church - were visible to the celestial of the spiritual, it follows that they were seen by the light in which the celestial of the spiritual dwells and so by the light which the celestial of the spiritual possesses. In this light, which is truth from the Divine, 5417, every single truth below - that is, within the natural - is visible. But the reverse is not possible if no intermediary is present, still less if no agreement between the two sides exists, no agreement enabling the two to be joined together. This becomes quite clear from the consideration that angels dwelling in the heavens, and so in the light of heaven, can see every single thing that happens in the world of spirits, which is immediately below the heavens, as well as every single thing that happens on the earth of the lower ones, and indeed that happens in the hells. But the reverse is not possible.

[2] It is also the case that the angels of a higher heaven can see everything that is happening in the heaven beneath them, but the reverse is not so unless an intermediary exists. Intermediary spirits also serve as the means by which communication forward and back takes place. When therefore those who are in a lower position and have no intermediary, and more particularly those who are not in agreement with the ones above them, look at the light of heaven, they see absolutely nothing at all; everything there appears to them to dwell in total obscurity. But in fact those in the place where they look dwell in the brightest light. This may be illustrated by the following unique experience: A large city once appeared in front of me, where there were thousands of different, delightful and beautiful sights. I saw these because an intermediary had been provided; yet the spirits present with me could not see a single thing because they had no intermediary. I was told that even though they are present in that place those who are not in agreement with the ones above them discern nothing whatever of the things existing there.

[3] The same is similarly true of a person's interior man or spirit, which is also called his soul. The interior man can see every single thing present and taking place in the exterior man; but the reverse is not possible unless the two are in agreement and an intermediary is present. To the exterior man therefore, when it is not in agreement with the interior man, the interior man does not appear to have any existence. It appears to be so completely non-existent that when anything is said about the interior man, it seems to the exterior man either to be so obscure that it is unwilling even to contemplate it or to be nothing it can believe in. But when agreement between the two does exist, the exterior man sees, with the help of the intermediary, what is going on in the interior man. For then the light which the interior man possesses enters into the light which the exterior or natural man possesses; that is, heavenly light passes into natural light and brightens it, and in this brighter light what is happening to the interior man is made visible. This is the origin of the intelligence and wisdom which the exterior man possesses. But if no intermediary is present, and especially if no agreement exists, the interior man sees and perceives what is going on in the exterior man and also to some extent guides it; the reverse however does not happen. More than that, if contrariety exists - that is to say, if the exterior man completely perverts or snuffs out what comes in by way of the interior man - the interior man is deprived of the light it receives from heaven, heaven is inaccessible to it, and a communication from hell with the exterior man is opened up. You may see more about these matters in what now follows below.
