Ô-sê 10

പഠനം

   

1 Y-sơ-ra-ên là một cây nho tươi tốt, sanh ra trái nó. Trái nó càng sai tríu chừng nào, nó càng thêm nhiều bàn thờ ra chừng nấy; đất nó càng tốt bao nhiêu, những trụ tượng nó lập lên càng đẹp bấy nhiêu.

2 Lòng chúng nó phân hai; bây giờ chúng nó sẽ bị định tội. Ðức Chúa Trời sẽ đánh bàn thờ chúng nó; sẽ phá trụ tượng chúng nó.

3 Chắc bây giờ chúng nó sẽ nói rằng: Chúng ta không có vua, vì Chúng ta không kính sợ Ðức Giê-hô-va; và vua, vua có thể làm gì cho Chúng ta?

4 Chúng nó nói những lời hư không và thề dối khi lập giao ước; cho nên sự đoán phạt sẽ nứt mầm, nhạy như có độc mọc lên trong luống cày nơi ruộng.

5 Dân cư Sa-ma-ri sẽ kinh hãi vì những bò con của Bết-a-ven; dân sự sẽ vì nó than khóc, các thầy tế lễ nó vốn ưa thích nó cũng vậy, vì sự vinh hiển nó đã biến mất khỏi nó.

6 Nó cũng được bị dời qua A-si-ri lảm lễ vật dâng cho vua Gia-rép. Bấy giờ Ép-ra-im sẽ mang xấu hổ, Y-sơ-ra-ên sẽ hổ thẹn về mưu kế mình.

7 Về phần Sa-ma-ri, vua nó bị trừ đi giống như bọt trên mặt nước.

8 Các nơi cao của A-ven, tức là tội lỗi của Y-sơ-ra-ên, sẽ bị phá hủy; gai gốc và chà chuôm sẽ mọc trên các bàn thờ chúng nó. Bấy giờ người ta sẽ nói cùng các núi rằng: Hãy bao bọc lấy chúng ta! và nói với các đồi rằng: Hãy đổ xuống trên chúng ta!

9 Hỡi Y-sơ-ra-ên, từ ngày Ghi-bê-a, ngươi đã phạm tội rồi! Chúng nó đều đứng đó; sự tranh chiến nghịch cùng con cái sự gian ác chẳng theo kịp chúng nó trong Ghi-bê-a.

10 Ta sẽ sửa phạt chúng nó khi ta muốn, và các dân sẽ nhóm lại nghịch cùng chúng nó, khi chúng nó bị buộc vào hai tội mình.

11 Ép-ra-im như bò cái tơ khéo dạy, ưa thích đạp lúa; nhưng ta đã qua trên cổ béo tốt nó. Ta sẽ đặt người cỡi trên Ép-ra-im; Giu-đa sẽ cày, và Gia-cốp sẽ đập vỡ cục đất.

12 Hãy gieo cho mình trong sự công bình, hãy gặt theo sự nhơn từ; hãy vỡ đất mới! Vì là kỳ tìm kiếm Ðức Giê-hô-va, cho đến chừng nào Ngài đến và sa mưa công bình trên các ngươi.

13 Các ngươi đã cày sự gian ác, gặt sự gian ác, ăn trái của sự nói dối; vì ngươi đã nhờ cậy trong đường lối ngươi, trong muôn vàn người mạnh bạo của ngươi.

14 Vậy nên sự rối loạn sẽ sanh ra trong dân ngươi: người ta sẽ hủy phá mọi đồn lũy của ngươi, như San-man đã hủy phá Bết-Aït-bên, trong ngày có trận đánh mà mẹ bị nghiền nát với các con cái.

15 Bê-tên cũng sẽ làm cho các ngươi như vậy, vì sự gian ác lớn lắm của các ngươi. Vua Y-sơ-ra-ên sẽ bị diệt cả trong khi hừng sáng.

1186. That 'Asshur' is reasoning is clear from the meaning of 'Asshur' or Assyria in the Word, where in every case it stands for those things that belong to reason. It stands for them in both senses, namely for rational things and for reasonings - reason and rational things being used strictly speaking to mean things that are true, and reasoning and reasonings to mean those that are false. Because 'Asshur' means reason and reasoning it is very frequently linked with Egypt, which means facts, for reason and reasoning are based on facts. That Asshur means reasoning is clear in Isaiah,

Woe to Asshur, the rod of My anger, he does not think what is right and his heart does not consider what is right He has said, By the strength of my hand I have done it, and by my wisdom, for I have intelligence. Isaiah 10:5, 7, 13.

Here 'Asshur' stands for reasoning, and therefore he is referred to as 'not thinking and not considering what is right', and it is said that 'he acts by his own wisdom, for he has intelligence'.

[2] In Ezekiel,

Two women, the daughters of one mother, committed whoredom in Egypt. In their youth they committed whoredom. One committed whoredom and doted on her lovers, on Asshur (the Assyrians), her neighbours, clothed in violet, leaders and governors, all of them desirable young men, horsemen riding on horses The sons of Babel came to her and they defiled her with their whoredom. Ezekiel 23:2-3, 5-6, 17.

Here 'Egypt' stands for facts, 'Asshur' for reasoning, 'the sons of Babel' for falsities springing from evil desires.

[3] In the same prophet,

Jerusalem, you committed whoredom with the sons of Egypt, you committed whoredom with the sons of Asshur, you multiplied your whoredom even into the land of Canaan towards Chaldaea. Ezekiel 16:26, 28-29.

Here likewise 'Egypt' stands for facts, 'Asshur' for reasoning. Reasoning, based on facts, concerning spiritual and celestial things is called 'whoredom' both here and elsewhere in the Word. Anyone may see that committing whoredom with Egyptians and with Assyrians is not the meaning.

[4] In Jeremiah,

Israel, what have you to do with the way to Egypt, to drink the waters of Shihor? And what have you to do with the way to Asshur, to drink the waters of the River (the Euphrates)? Jeremiah 2:18, 36.

Here likewise 'Egypt' stands for facts, 'Asshur' for reasoning. In the same prophet,

Israel is a scattered flock; the lions have driven him away. First the king of Asshur has devoured him, and last this king of Babel has removed his bones. Jeremiah 50:17-18

'Asshur' stands for reasoning concerning spiritual things.

[5] In Micah,

And this will be peace, when Asshur comes into our land and when he treads our palaces, and we will set up over him seven shepherds and eight princes of men and they will rule the land of Asshur with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in its gates; and he will deliver [us] from Asshur when he comes into our land and when he treads our border. Micah 5:5-6.

This refers to Israel, or the spiritual Church, concerning which it is said that 'Asshur will not enter in', that is, reasoning will not do so. 'The land of Nimrod' stands for the kind of worship meant by Nimrod, which has interior evils and falsities within it.

[6] The fact that in the Word 'Asshur' also means reason present with the member of the Church, by means of which reason he sees clearly what is true and what is good, is clear in Hosea,

They will tremble like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove from the land of Asshur. Hosea 11:11.

Here 'Egypt' stands for the knowledge a member of the Church possesses, 'Asshur' for his reason. That 'a bird' means facts that are known and understood, and 'a dove' rational good, has been shown already.

[7] In Isaiah,

On that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Asshur, and Asshur will come into Egypt and Egypt into Asshur, and the Egyptians will serve Asshur. 1 On that day Israel will be the third with Egypt and Asshur, a blessing in the midst of the earth, whom Jehovah Zebaoth will bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt My people, and Asshur the work of My hands, and Israel My heritage. Isaiah 19:23-25.

This refers to the spiritual Church, meant by Israel, 'Asshur' being its reason, and 'Egypt' its knowledge. These three constitute the intellectual powers of the member of the spiritual Church which come in that order one after another. In other places where Asshur is mentioned it means the rational, true or false, as in Isaiah 20:1-6; 23:13; 27:13; 30:31; 31:8; 36, 37; 52:4; Ezekiel 27:23-24; Ezekiel 31:3-18; 32:22; Micah 7:12; Zephaniah 2:13; Zechariah 10:11; Psalms 83:8. 'Asshur' stands for reasoning in Hosea 5:13; 7:11; 10:6; 11:5; 12:1; 14:3; and in Zechariah 10:10, where the reference is to Ephraim who means the intellectual part of the mind, though in this instance when perverted.

അടിക്കുറിപ്പുകൾ:

1. The Hebrew of this text in Isaiah may be read in two different ways - serve Asshur or serve with Asshur. Most English versions of Isaiah prefer the second of these.

Genesis 11

പഠനം

   

1 The whole earth was of one language and of one speech.

2 It happened, as they traveled east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they lived there.

3 They said one to another, "Come, let's make bricks, and burn them thoroughly." They had brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar.

4 They said, "Come, let's build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top reaches to the sky, and let's make ourselves a name, lest we be scattered abroad on the surface of the whole earth."

5 Yahweh came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men built.

6 Yahweh said, "Behold, they are one people, and they have all one language, and this is what they begin to do. Now nothing will be withheld from them, which they intend to do.

7 Come, let's go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech."

8 So Yahweh scattered them abroad from there on the surface of all the earth. They stopped building the city.

9 Therefore its name was called Babel, because there Yahweh confused the language of all the earth. From there, Yahweh scattered them abroad on the surface of all the earth.

10 This is the history of the generations of Shem. Shem was one hundred years old and became the father of Arpachshad two years after the flood.

11 Shem lived five hundred years after he became the father of Arpachshad, and became the father of sons and daughters.

12 Arpachshad lived thirty-five years and became the father of Shelah.

13 Arpachshad lived four hundred three years after he became the father of Shelah, and became the father of sons and daughters.

14 Shelah lived thirty years, and became the father of Eber:

15 and Shelah lived four hundred three years after he became the father of Eber, and became the father of sons and daughters.

16 Eber lived thirty-four years, and became the father of Peleg.

17 Eber lived four hundred thirty years after he became the father of Peleg, and became the father of sons and daughters.

18 Peleg lived thirty years, and became the father of Reu.

19 Peleg lived two hundred nine years after he became the father of Reu, and became the father of sons and daughters.

20 Reu lived thirty-two years, and became the father of Serug.

21 Reu lived two hundred seven years after he became the father of Serug, and became the father of sons and daughters.

22 Serug lived thirty years, and became the father of Nahor.

23 Serug lived two hundred years after he became the father of Nahor, and became the father of sons and daughters.

24 Nahor lived twenty-nine years, and became the father of Terah.

25 Nahor lived one hundred nineteen years after he became the father of Terah, and became the father of sons and daughters.

26 Terah lived seventy years, and became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran.

27 Now this is the history of the generations of Terah. Terah became the father of Abram, Nahor, and Haran. Haran became the father of Lot.

28 Haran died before his father Terah in the land of his birth, in Ur of the Chaldees.

29 Abram and Nahor took wives. The name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife, Milcah, the daughter of Haran who was also the father of Iscah.

30 Sarai was barren. She had no child.

31 Terah took Abram his son, Lot the son of Haran, his son's son, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, his son Abram's wife. They went forth from Ur of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan. They came to Haran and lived there.

32 The days of Terah were two hundred five years. Terah died in Haran.
