Jeremija 24

Studie

   

1 Pokaza mi Gospod, i gle, dve kotarice smokava nameštene pred crkvom Gospodnjom, pošto Navuhodonosor, car vavilonski, zarobi Jehoniju sina Joakimovog cara Judinog, i knezove Judine, i drvodelje i kovače iz Jerusalima i odvede ih u Vavilon.

2 U jednoj kotarici behu smokve vrlo dobre, kakve behu rane smokve, a u drugoj kotarici behu vrlo rđave smokve, koje se ne mogahu jesti, tako behu rđave.

3 I reče mi Gospod: Šta vidiš, Jeremija? A ja rekoh: Smokve, jedne dobre Smokve, vrlo dobre, a druge rđave, vrlo rđave, koje se ne mogu jesti, tako su rđave.

4 I dođe mi reč Gospodnja govoreći:

5 Ovako veli Gospod Bog Izrailjev: Kakve su te smokve dobre, tako će mi biti dobra radi roblje Judino, koje odaslah iz ovog mesta u zemlju haldejsku.

6 I obratiću oči svoje na njih dobra radi, i dovešću ih opet u ovu zemlju, i sazidaću ih i neću ih razoriti, i nasadiću ih i neću ih počupati.

7 Jer ću im dati srce da me poznaju da sam ja Gospod, i biće mi narod i ja ću im biti Bog, jer će se obratiti k meni svim srcem svojim.

8 A kakve su te rđave smokve da se ne mogu jesti, kako su rđave, takvim ću, veli Gospod, učiniti Sedekiju cara Judinog i knezove njegove i ostatak Jerusalimljana koji ostaše u ovoj zemlji i koji žive u zemlji misirskoj.

9 Učiniću da se potucaju po svim carstvima zemaljskim na zlo, da budu sramota i priča i rug i uklin po svim mestima, kuda ih raselim.

10 I poslaću na njih mač, glad i pomor, dokle se ne istrebe sa zemlje, koju sam dao njima i ocima njihovim.

Apocalypse Revealed #805

Bestudeer deze passage

  
/ 962  
  

805. 19:2 "For true and just are His judgments, because He has judged the great harlot who corrupted the earth with her licentiousness." This symbolically means, because in accordance with justice the profane Roman Catholic religion has been condemned, which by its foul adulterations of the Word destroyed the Lord's church.

"True and just are Your judgments" symbolizes the Word's Divine truths and goods, in accordance with which the Lord executes judgment (nos. 668, 689), and which together are called righteousness. For righteousness in reference to the Lord has just this symbolic meaning, as in verse 11 below, and in Isaiah 63:1, Jeremiah 23:5-6; 33:15-16. "Because He has judged the great harlot" means, symbolically, because the profane Roman Catholic religion has been condemned, as described in the preceding chapter. It is called a great harlot because of its adulteration and profanation of the Word. "Who corrupted the earth with her licentiousness" means, symbolically, which by its foul adulterations of the Word destroyed the Lord's church - its licentiousness symbolizing an adulteration of the Word (no. 134), and the earth symbolizing the church (nos. 285, 721).
