Ezekiel 35

Studie

   

1 Bukod dito'y ang salita ng Panginoon ay dumating sa akin, na nagsasabi,

2 Anak ng tao, ititig mo ang iyong mukha sa bundok ng Seir, at manghula ka laban doon,

3 At sabihin mo roon, Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Narito, ako'y laban sa iyo, Oh bundok ng Seir, at aking iniunat ang aking kamay laban sa iyo, at gagawin kitang sira at katigilan.

4 Aking ilalagay na giba ang iyong mga bayan, at ikaw ay magiging sira; at iyong malalaman na ako ang Panginoon.

5 Sapagka't ikaw ay nagkaroon ng laging pakikipagkaalit, at ibinigay mo ang mga anak ni Israel sa kapangyarihan ng tabak sa kapanahunan ng kanilang kasakunaan, sa kapanahunan ng parusang pinaka wakas;

6 Kaya't buhay ako, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, aking itatalaga ka sa dugo, at ang dugo ay hahabol sa iyo: yamang hindi mo kinapootan ang dugo, kaya't matatalaga ka sa dugo.

7 Ganito ko gagawin ang bundok ng Seir na isang katigilan at kasiraan; at aking ihihiwalay sa kaniya siya na nagdaraan at siyang nagbabalik.

8 At aking pupunuin ang kaniyang mga bundok ng kaniyang mga nangapatay: sa iyong mga burol at sa iyong mga libis at sa lahat mong mga daan ng tubig ay mangabubuwal sila na nangapatay ng tabak.

9 Ikaw ay gagawin kong pangpalaging kasiraan, at ang iyong mga bayan ay hindi tatahanan; at inyong malalaman na ako ang Panginoon.

10 Sapagka't iyong sinabi, Ang dalawang bansang ito, at ang dalawang lupaing ito ay magiging akin, at aming aariin; bagaman kinaroroonan ng Panginoon:

11 Kaya't buhay ako, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, aking gagawin ayon sa iyong galit, at ayon sa iyong pananaghili na iyong ipinakilala sa iyong pagtatanim laban sa kanila: at ako'y pakikilala sa gitna nila pagka aking hahatulan ka.

12 At iyong malalaman na akong Panginoon ay nakarinig ng lahat mong panunungayaw na iyong sinalita laban sa mga bundok ng Israel, na sinasabi, Nangalagay na sira ang mga yaon, nangabigay sa atin upang lamunin.

13 At kayo'y nangagmalaki laban sa akin ng inyong bibig, at inyong pinarami ang inyong mga salita laban sa akin: aking narinig yaon.

14 Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Dios: Pagka ang buong lupa ay nagagalak, akin gagawin kang sira.

15 Kung paanong ikaw ay nagalak sa mana ng sangbahayan ni Israel, dahil sa sira, gayon ang gagawin ko sa iyo: ikaw ay magiging sira, Oh bundok ng Seir, at buong Edom, oo, lahat ng ito; at kanilang malalaman na ako ang Panginoon.

4264. 'Thirty milking camels and their colts; forty young cows and ten young bulls; twenty she-asses and ten foals' means things that are subservient, general and specific. This is clear from the meaning of 'camels and their colts', also of 'young cows and young bulls' as well as of 'she-asses and their foals' as things which belong to the natural man. These things have been referred to several times already - 'camels' in 3048, 3071, 3143, 3145; 'young bulls' in 1824, 1825, 2180, 2781, 2830; 'she-asses' in 2781; and these things which belong to the natural man, in relation to other things are subservient, see 1486, 3019, 3020, 3167. Consequently things that are subservient, general and specific, are meant by the animals mentioned here. As regards the numbers of the animals being 200 she-goats, 20 he-goats, 200 sheep, 20 rams, 30 camels and their colts, 40 young cows, 10 young bulls, 20 she-asses and 10 foals, these are arcana which cannot be revealed without much explanation and an extensive drawing of inferences. For all numbers used in the Word mean real things, 482, 487, 575, 647, 648, 755, 813, 1988, 2075, 2252, 3252; and what they mean has been shown where they have occurred in previous chapters.

[2] I have sometimes been amazed that when angels' conversing together came down into the world of spirits their conversation revealed itself in various numbers, and also that when numbers have been read in the Word the angels have understood real things. For no numerical value ever penetrates into heaven since numbers belong to measurements both of space and of time, and these belong to the world and to the natural order to which, in the heavens, states and changes of states correspond. The most ancient people, who were celestial and had communication with angels, were aware of what simple numbers and also compound numbers meant. The meanings of these were conveyed from those people to their descendants and to members of the Ancient Church. These are things which find scarcely any acceptance in the member of the Church at the present day who believes that nothing holier is concealed in the Word apart from that which is seen in the letter.
