Бытие 28

Studie

   

1 И призвалъ Исаакъ Іакова, и благословилъ его, и заповјдалъ ему, говоря: не бери себј жены изъ дочерей Ханаанскихъ.

2 Встань, поди въ Месопотаиію, въ домъ Ваѕуила, отца матери твоей, и возьми себј жену оттуда, изъ дочерей Лавана, брата матери твоей.

3 Богъ же Всемогущій да благословитъ тебя, да расплодитъ тебя, и да размножитъ тебя, чтобы ты сдјлался сонмомъ народовъ.

4 И да дастъ тебј благословеніе Авраамово, тебј и потомству твоему, съ тобою, да наслјдуешь ты землю странствованія твоего, которую Богъ далъ Аврааму.

5 Такимъ образомъ Исаакъ отпустилъ Іакова, и онъ пошелъ въ Падан-Арамъ, къ Лавану, сыну Ваѕуила, Арамеянина, къ брату Ревекки, матери Іакова и Исава.

6 Исавъ увидјлъ, что Исаакъ благословилъ Іакова, и послалъ его въ Падан-Арамъ взятъ себј жену оттуда, заповјдавъ ему при благословеніи, и сказавъ: не бери жены изъ дочерей Ханаанскихъ;

7 и что Іаковъ послушался отца своего и матери своей, и пошелъ въ Падан-Арамъ;

8 и увидјлъ Исавъ, что дочери Ханаанскія неугодны Исааку, отцу его:

9 и пошелъ Исавъ къ Измаилу, и взялъ себј въ жену Махалаѕу, дочь Измаила, сына Авраамова, сестру Наваіоѕову, сверхъ другихъ женъ своихъ.

10 Іаковъ же, вышедши изъ Беэр-Шавы, чтобъ идти въ Харранъ,

11 пришелъ на одно мјсто, и остался тамъ ночевать, потому что зашло солнце. И взялъ одинъ изъ бышихъ на томъ мјстј камней, и положилъ себј въ головы, и легъ на томъ мјстј.

12 И видитъ во снј: вотъ, лјстница стоитъ на землј, а верхъ ея касается небесъ; и се, ангелы Божіи восходятъ и нисходятъ по ней.

13 И се, Іегова стоитъ на ней, и говорить: Я Іегова, Богъ Авраама, отца твоего, и Богъ Исаака. Землю, на которой ты лежишь, Я дамъ тебј и потомству твоему.

14 И будетъ потомство твое, какъ иесокъ земный; и распространится къ морю, и къ востоку, и къ сјверу, и къ полудню; и благословятся въ тебј и въ сјмени твоемъ всј племена земныя.

15 И се, Я съ тобою, и сохраню тебя вездј, куда ты ни пойдешь; и возвращу тебя въ сію землю; ибо Я не оставлю тебя, пока не исполню того, что Я сказалъ тебј.

16 И пробудился Іаковъ отъ сна своего, и сказалъ: точно Іегова на мјстј семъ; а я не зналъ.

17 И убоялся, и сказалъ: какъ страшно сіе мјсто! Это не иное что, какъ домъ Божій, это врата небесная.

18 Вставъ поутру, Іаковъ взялъ камень, который былъ у него въ головахъ, и поставилъ его памятникомъ; и возлилъ елей на верхъ его.

19 И нарекъ имя мјсту тому: Веѕиль, а прежнее имя того города было: Лузъ.

20 И положилъ Іаковъ објтъ говоря: если Богъ будетъ со мною, и сохранитъ меня въ пути семъ, въ который я иду, и дастъ мнј хлјбъ јсть, и одежду одјтъся;

21 и я въ мирј возвращусь въ домъ отца моего, и будетъ Іегова моимъ Богомъ:

22 то этотъ камень, который я поставилъ памятникомъ, да будетъ домомъ Божіимъ, и изъ всего, что Ты, Боже, даруешь мнј, я дамъ Тебј десятую часть.

Arcana Coelestia #3833

3833. And it came to pass in the evening. That this signifies the state as yet obscure, is evident from the signification of “evening,” as being an obscure state (see n. 3056). Among the ancients, who were in congruent rituals, the feasts that were made in the evening, that is, the suppers, signified nothing else than the state of initiation which precedes conjunction, which state relatively to the state of conjunction is obscure. For during man’s initiation into truth and thence into good, all that he learns is obscure to him; but when good is being conjoined with him, and he regards truth therefrom, it then becomes clear to him, and this successively more and more; for now he is no longer in doubt as to whether a thing exists, or whether it is so; but he knows that it exists, and that it is so.

[2] When man is in this state, he then begins to know innumerable things, for he now proceeds from the good and truth which he believes and perceives as from a center to the circumferences; and in proportion as he proceeds, in the same proportion he sees the things which are round about, and successively more and more widely, for he is constantly pushing out and widening the boundaries. Thenceforth also he commences from every subject in the space within the boundaries; and from these as from new centers he throws out new circumferences, and so on. In this way the light of truth from good increases immeasurably, and becomes like a continuous lucidity, for the man is then in the light of heaven, which is from the Lord. But with those who are in doubt and in discussion as to whether a thing exists, and whether it is so, these innumerable, nay, illimitable things do not appear one whit; to them all things in both general and particular are utterly obscure, and are scarcely regarded as one really existing thing, but rather as one thing the existence of which is doubtful. In such a state is human wisdom and intelligence at this day, when he is deemed wise who can reason with ingenuity as to whether a thing exists; and he is deemed still wiser who can reason that it does not exist.

[3] For example take the proposition that there is an internal sense of the Word, which is called mystical: until this is believed, it is impossible for men to know the least of the innumerable things which are in the internal sense, and which are so many as to fill the whole heaven with an infinite variety. Another example is that the man who reasons concerning the Divine Providence, as to whether it is only universal, and not in the singulars, cannot possibly know the innumerable arcana of Providence, which are as many in number as are the contingencies of everyone’s life from first to last, and from the creation of the world to its end; nay, even to eternity. Again: he who reasons as to whether it is possible for anyone to be in good, seeing that the will of man is radically depraved, can never know all the arcana relating to regeneration, nor even that a new will is implanted by the Lord, nor the arcana relating to this implantation; and so with everything else. From this it may be known in what obscurity such persons are, and that they do not even see, much less touch, the first threshold of wisdom.
