Génesis 49

Estude

   

1 Y llamó Jacob a sus hijos, y dijo: Juntaos, y os declararé lo que os ha de acontecer en los postreros días.

2 Juntaos y oíd, hijos de Jacob; y escuchad a vuestro padre Israel.

3 Rubén, tú eres mi primogénito, mi fortaleza, y el principio de mi vigor; principal en dignidad, principal en fortaleza.

4 Corriente como las aguas, no seas el principal; por cuanto subiste al lecho de tu padre; entonces te envileciste, subiendo a mi estrado.

5 Simeón y Leví, hermanos: armas de iniquidad sus armas.

6 En su secreto no entre mi alma, ni mi honra se junte en su compañía; que en su furor mataron varón, y en su voluntad arrancaron muro.

7 Maldito su furor, que es fuerte; y su ira, que es dura; yo los apartaré en Jacob, y los esparciré en Israel.

8 Judá, te alabarán tus hermanos: tu mano en la cerviz de tus enemigos; los hijos de tu padre se inclinarán a ti.

9 Cachorro de león Judá: de la presa subiste, hijo mío; se encorvó, se echó como león, Así como león viejo , ¿quién lo despertará?

10 No será quitado el cetro de Judá, y el legislador de entre sus pies, hasta que venga SILOH; y a él se congregarán los pueblos.

11 Atando a la vid su pollino, y a la cepa el hijo de su asna, lavó en el vino su vestido, y en la sangre de uvas su cobertura:

12 Los ojos bermejos del vino, los dientes blancos de la leche.

13 Zabulón a puertos de mar habitará, y a puerto de navíos; y su término será hasta Sidón.

14 Isacar, asno huesudo echado entre dos líos;

15 y vio que el descanso era bueno, y que la tierra era deleitosa; y bajó su hombro para llevar, y sirvió en tributo.

16 Dan juzgará a su pueblo, como una de las tribus de Israel.

17 Será Dan serpiente junto al camino, cerasta junto a la senda, que muerde los talones de los caballos, y hace caer por detrás al cabalgador de ellos.

18 Tu salud esperé, oh SEÑOR.

19 Gad, ejército lo acometerá; mas él acometerá al fin.

20 El pan de Aser será grueso, y él dará deleites al rey.

21 Neftalí, cierva dejada, que dará dichos hermosos.

22 Ramo fructífero José, ramo fructífero junto a una fuente, las doncellas van sobre el muro.

23 Y le causaron amargura, y asaetearon, y le aborrecieron los señores de saetas;

24 mas su arco quedó en fortaleza, y los brazos de sus manos se corroboraron por las manos del Fuerte de Jacob; de allí apacentó la piedra de Israel,

25 del Dios de tu padre, el cual te ayudará, y del Omnipotente, el cual te bendecirá con bendiciones de los cielos de arriba, con bendiciones del abismo que está abajo, con bendiciones de los pechos y del vientre.

26 Las bendiciones de tu padre fueron mayores que las bendiciones de mis progenitores: hasta el término de los collados eternos serán sobre la cabeza de José, y sobre la mollera del Nazareo de sus hermanos.

27 Benjamín, lobo arrebatador: a la mañana comerá la presa, y a la tarde repartirá los despojos.

28 Todos estos fueron las doce tribus de Israel: y esto fue lo que su padre les dijo, y los bendijo; a cada uno por su bendición los bendijo.

29 Les mandó luego , y les dijo: Yo soy congregado con mi pueblo; sepultadme con mis padres en la cueva que está en el campo de Efrón el heteo;

30 en la cueva que está en el campo de la dobladura, que está delante de Mamre en la tierra de Canaán, la cual compró Abraham con el mismo campo de Efrón el heteo, para heredad de sepultura.

31 Allí sepultaron a Abraham y a Sara su mujer; allí sepultaron a Isaac y a Rebeca su mujer; allí también sepulté yo a Lea.

32 La compra del campo y de la cueva que está en él, fue de los hijos de Het.

33 Y cuando acabó Jacob de dar mandamientos a sus hijos, encogió sus pies en la cama, y expiró; y fue congregado con sus padres.

6386. 'And his side will be towards Sidon' means the extension on one side into cognitions of good and truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'side' as the extension on one side; and from the meaning of 'Sidon' as exterior cognitions of good and truth, dealt with in 1201.

In this section dealing with Zebulun reference is made to cognitions, religious teachings, and factual knowledge. And the phrases 'the extension on one side into cognitions of good and truth' and also 'truth inferred from known facts in which teachings drawn from the Word are present' are used, so let it be said what differences are being drawn here between these terms. Teachings consist in what is derived from the Word, cognitions in what is derived from those teachings on one side and factual knowledge on the other, while factual knowledge consists in what is derived from one's own and other people's experience.

Genesis 48

Estude

   

1 It happened after these things, that someone said to Joseph, "Behold, your father is sick." He took with him his two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim.

2 Someone told Jacob, and said, "Behold, your son Joseph comes to you," and Israel strengthened himself, and sat on the bed.

3 Jacob said to Joseph, "God Almighty appeared to me at Luz in the land of Canaan, and blessed me,

4 and said to me, 'Behold, I will make you fruitful, and multiply you, and I will make of you a company of peoples, and will give this land to your seed after you for an everlasting possession.'

5 Now your two sons, who were born to you in the land of Egypt before I came to you into Egypt, are mine; Ephraim and Manasseh, even as Reuben and Simeon, will be mine.

6 Your issue, who you become the father of after them, will be yours. They will be called after the name of their brothers in their inheritance.

7 As for me, when I came from Paddan, Rachel died by me in the land of Canaan in the way, when there was still some distance to come to Ephrath, and I buried her there in the way to Ephrath (the same is Bethlehem)."

8 Israel saw Joseph's sons, and said, "Who are these?"

9 Joseph said to his father, "They are my sons, whom God has given me here." He said, "Please bring them to me, and I will bless them."

10 Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he couldn't see. He brought them near to him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.

11 Israel said to Joseph, "I didn't think I would see your face, and behold, God has let me see your seed also."

12 Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.

13 Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel's left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel's right hand, and brought them near to him.

14 Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it on Ephraim's head, who was the younger, and his left hand on Manasseh's head, guiding his hands knowingly, for Manasseh was the firstborn.

15 He blessed Joseph, and said, "The God before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God who has fed me all my life long to this day,

16 the angel who has redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads, and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac. Let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth."

17 When Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand on the head of Ephraim, it displeased him. He held up his father's hand, to remove it from Ephraim's head to Manasseh's head.

18 Joseph said to his father, "Not so, my father; for this is the firstborn; put your right hand on his head."

19 His father refused, and said, "I know, my son, I know. He also will become a people, and he also will be great. However, his younger brother will be greater than he, and his seed will become a multitude of nations."

20 He blessed them that day, saying, "In you will Israel bless, saying, 'God make you as Ephraim and as Manasseh'" He set Ephraim before Manasseh.

21 Israel said to Joseph, "Behold, I am dying, but God will be with you, and bring you again to the land of your fathers.

22 Moreover I have given to you one portion above your brothers, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow."
