Иезекииль 29:12

Study

       

12 И сделаю землю Египетскую пустынею среди земель опустошенных; и города ее среди опустелых городов будут пустыми сорок лет, и рассею Египтян по народам, и развею их по землям.

Commentary

 

Word

  

'Word,' as in Isaiah 9:8, signifies the doctrine of internal and external worship. 'Word,' as in Psalms 119:6-17, stands for doctrine in general.

'The Word,' as in Psalms 147:18, signifies divine good united with divine truth.

The whole Word is nothing but the doctrine of love towards the Lord, and love towards our neighbor, as in Matthew 22.
