Study

       

3 Говори и скажи: так говорит Господь Бог: вот, Я – на тебя, фараон, царь Египетский, большой крокодил, который, лежа среди рек своих, говоришь: „моя река, и я создал ее для себя".

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.
