耶利米書 44

1 有臨到耶利米,論及一切埃及的猶大人,就是在密奪、答比匿、挪弗、巴忒羅境內的猶大人,說:

2 萬軍之耶和華以色列的如此:我所降與耶路撒冷猶大各城的一切災禍你們都見了。那些城邑今日荒涼,無人居住

3 這是因居民所行的惡,去燒香事奉別,就是他們和你們,並你們列祖所不認識的,惹我發怒。

4 我從起來差遣我的僕人先知去說,你們切不要行我所厭惡這可憎之事。

5 他們卻不從,不側耳而,不離惡事,仍向別燒香。

6 因此,我的怒氣和忿怒都倒出來,在猶大城邑中和耶路撒冷的街上,如火著起,以致都荒廢淒涼,正如今日一樣。

7 現在耶和華─萬軍之以色列的如此:你們為何作這惡自害己命,使你們的男人、婦女、嬰孩,和吃奶的都從猶大中剪除、不留一呢?

8 就是因你們所做的,在所去寄居的埃及向別燒香惹我發怒,使你們被剪除,在天下萬國中令人咒詛羞辱。

9 你們列祖的惡行,猶大和他們后妃的惡行,你們自己和你們妻子的惡行,就是在猶大耶路撒冷街上所行的,你們都忘了麼?

10 到如今還沒有懊悔,沒有懼,沒有遵行我在你們和你們列祖面前所設立的法度律例。

11 所以萬軍之耶和華以色列的如此:我必向你們變臉降災,以致剪除猶大眾人。

12 那定意進入埃及、在那裡寄居的,就是所剩下的猶大人,我必使他們盡都滅絕,必在埃及仆倒,必因刀饑荒滅絕;從最小的到至的都必遭刀饑荒而,以致令人辱罵、驚駭、咒詛、羞辱。

13 我怎樣用刀、饑荒、瘟疫刑罰耶路撒冷,也必照樣刑罰那些埃及的猶大人;

14 甚至那進入埃及寄居的,就是所剩下的猶大人,都不得逃脫,也不得存留歸回猶大。他們心中甚想歸回居住;除了逃脫的以外,一個都不能歸回。

15 那些埃及巴忒羅知道自己妻子向別燒香的,與旁邊站立的眾婦女,聚集成群,回答耶利米

16 論到你奉耶和華的名向我們我們必不從。

17 我們定要成就我們中所出的一切,向后燒香、澆奠祭,按著我們我們列祖、君、首領在猶大的城邑中和耶路撒冷的街上素常所行的一樣;因為那時我們吃飽飯、享福樂,並不見災禍。

18 自從我們停止向后燒香、澆奠祭,我們倒缺乏一切,又因刀饑荒滅絕。

19 婦女:我們向后燒香、澆奠祭,做后像的餅供奉他,向他澆奠祭,是外乎我們的丈夫麼?

20 耶利米對一切那樣回答他的男人婦女

21 你們與你們列祖、君、首領,並國內的百姓,在猶大城邑中和耶路撒冷上所燒的香,耶和華豈不記念,中豈不思想麼?

22 耶和華因你們所作的惡、所行可憎的事,不能再容忍,所以你們的荒涼,令人驚駭咒詛,無人居住,正如今日一樣。

23 你們燒香,得罪耶和華,沒有聽從他的話,沒有遵行他的律法、條例、法度,所以你們遭遇這災禍,正如今日一樣。

24 耶利米又對眾民和眾婦女:你們在埃及的一切猶大人當耶和華的

25 萬軍之耶和華以色列的如此:你們和你們的妻都裡做,我們定要償還所許的願,向后燒香、澆奠祭。現在你們只管堅定所許的願而償還罷!

26 所以你們埃及的一切猶大耶和華的耶和華:我指著我的名起誓,在埃及,我的名不再被猶大一個稱呼:我指著─永生的耶和華起誓。

27 我向他們留意降禍不降福;在埃及的一切猶大必因刀、饑荒所滅,直到滅盡。

28 脫離刀、從埃及歸回猶大的人數很少;那進入埃及要在那裡寄居的,就是所剩下的猶大人,必知道是誰的立得住,是我的呢?是他們的呢?

29 耶和華:我在這地方刑罰你們,必有預兆,使你們知道我降禍與你們的必要立得住。

30 耶和華如此:我必將埃及王法老合弗拉交在他仇敵和尋索其命的人中,像我將猶大王西底家交在他仇敵和尋索其命的巴比倫王尼布甲尼撒中一樣。

Apocalypse Revealed # 597

Изучить этот эпизод

  
/ 962  
  

597. And causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose mortal injury was healed. This symbolically means that in this way, by supporting arguments, the clergy have established that it be acknowledged as a sacred tenet of the church that because no one can do any good work of himself and fulfill the law, the only means of salvation is faith in the righteousness and merit of Christ, who suffered for mankind and thereby took away the condemnation of the law.

We skip an explanation of these words because their meanings follow from the explanations above in nos. 566, 577, 578, 579, 580, 581, 582. The earth and those who dwell in it symbolize the Protestant Reformed Church, as before. To worship means, symbolically, to acknowledge as a sacred tenet of the church, as before too. That is what is meant here by the beast from the sea whose mortal injury was healed, and it is something we explained above.

Revelation 13

Учиться

   

1 Then I stood on the sand of the sea. I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten crowns, and on his heads, blasphemous names.

2 The beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. The dragon gave him his power, his throne, and great authority.

3 One of his heads looked like it had been wounded fatally. His fatal wound was healed, and the whole earth marveled at the beast.

4 They worshiped the dragon, because he gave his authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, "Who is like the beast? Who is able to make war with him?"

5 A mouth speaking great things and blasphemy was given to him. Authority to make war for forty-two months was given to him.

6 He opened his mouth for blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his dwelling, those who dwell in heaven.

7 It was given to him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them. Authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation was given to him.

8 All who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the book of life of the Lamb who has been killed.

9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear.

10 If anyone is to go into captivity, he will go into captivity. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, he must be killed. Here is the endurance and the faith of the saints.

11 I saw another beast coming up out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb, and he spoke like a dragon.

12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence. He makes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed.

13 He performs great signs, even making fire come down out of the sky to the earth in the sight of people.

14 He deceives my own people who dwell on the earth because of the signs he was granted to do in front of the beast; saying to those who dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast who had the sword wound and lived.

15 It was given to him to give breath to it, to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause as many as wouldn't worship the image of the beast to be killed.

16 He causes all, the small and the great, the rich and the poor, and the free and the slave, to be given marks on their right hands, or on their foreheads;

17 and that no one would be able to buy or to sell, unless he has that mark, the name of the beast or the number of his name.

18 Here is wisdom. He who has understanding, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is six hundred sixty-six.
