1 他向我耳中声喊:要使那监管这城的中各拿灭命的兵器前来。

2 忽然有从朝的上,各拿杀的兵器;内中有身穿细麻衣,腰间带着墨盒子。他们进,站在铜祭坛旁。

3 以色列的荣耀本在基路伯上,现今从那里升到殿的门槛。将那身穿细麻衣、腰间带着墨盒子的召来。

4 耶和华对他:你去走遍耶路撒冷全城,那些因城中所行可憎之事叹息哀哭的人,画记号在额上。

5 我耳中见他对其馀的人:要跟随他走遍全城,以行击杀。你们的眼不要顾惜,也不要可怜他们。

6 要将年老的、年少的,并处女、婴孩,和妇女,从圣所起全都杀尽,只是凡有记号的不要挨他。於是他们从殿前的长老杀起。

7 他对他们:要污秽这殿,使院中充满被杀的人。你们出去罢!他们就出去,在城中击杀。

8 他们击杀的时候,我被留下,我就俯伏在地,:哎!耶和华啊,你将忿怒倾在耶路撒冷,岂要将以色列所剩下的人都灭绝麽?

9 他对我以色列家和犹大家的罪孽极其重。遍有流血的事,满城有冤屈,因为他们耶和华已经离弃这,他不见我们。

10 故此,我眼必不顾惜,也不可怜他们,要照他们所行的报应在他们上。

11 那穿细麻衣、腰间带着墨盒子的将这事回覆:我已经照你所吩咐的行了。

Women

  

'Women,' as in Genesis 45:19, signify the affections of truth. But in Genesis 31:50, 'women' signify affections of not genuine truth, so not of the church.

5946. 'For your young children and your wives' means for those who as yet have no knowledge - no knowledge of the more internal teachings of the Church. This is clear from the meaning of 'young children' as those who do not as yet have any knowledge of those things; and from the meaning of 'wives' as affections for truth. For when 'men' means truths, as 'the sons of Jacob' do here, 'their wives' means affections for truth; and conversely, when 'men' means forms of good, 'their wives' means truths, though in the latter case the men are called 'husbands', 3236, 4510, 4823. Affections for truth, meant by 'wives' here, have no knowledge of the interior teachings of the Church except through the truths, which are their 'men'. Without truths affections are like the will without the understanding. To see and have knowledge of anything the will must use the understanding, where its sight or eye exists.
