1 Ελθων δε ο Ιωσηφ, απηγγειλε προς τον Φαραω λεγων, Ο πατηρ μου και οι αδελφοι μου, και τα ποιμνια αυτων και αι αγελαι αυτων και παντα οσα εχουσιν, ηλθον εκ της γης Χανααν· και ιδου, ειναι εν τη γη Γεσεν.

2 Και παραλαβων εκ των αδελφων αυτου πεντε ανδρας, παρεστησεν αυτους ενωπιον του Φαραω.

3 Και ειπεν ο Φαραω προς τους αδελφους αυτου, Τι ειναι το επιτηδευμα σας; οι δε ειπον προς τον Φαραω, Ποιμενες προβατων ειναι οι δουλοι σου και ημεις και οι πατερες ημων.

4 Ειπον ετι προς τον Φαραω, Ηλθομεν δια να παροικησωμεν εν τη γη· διοτι δεν υπαρχει βοσκη δια τα ποιμνια των δουλων σου, επειδη επεβαρυνεν η πεινα εν τη γη Χανααν· τωρα λοιπον ας κατοικησωσι, παρακαλουμεν, οι δουλοι σου εν τη γη Γεσεν.

5 Και ειπεν ο Φαραω προς τον Ιωσηφ λεγων, Ο πατηρ σου και οι αδελφοι σου ηλθον προς σε·

6 η γη της Αιγυπτου ειναι εμπροσθεν σου· εις το καλητερον της γης κατοικισον τον πατερα σου και τους αδελφους σου· ας κατοικησωσιν εν τη γη Γεσεν· και εαν γνωριζης οτι ευρισκονται μεταξυ αυτων ανδρες αξιοι, καταστησον αυτους επιστατας επι των ποιμνιων μου.

7 Εισηγαγε δε ο Ιωσηφ Ιακωβ τον πατερα αυτου και παρεστησεν αυτον ενωπιον του Φαραω· και ευλογησεν ο Ιακωβ τον Φαραω.

8 Και ειπεν ο Φαραω προς τον Ιακωβ, Ως ποσαι ειναι αι ημεραι των ετων της ζωης σου;

9 Και ο Ιακωβ ειπε προς τον Φαραω, Αι ημεραι των ετων της παροικιας μου ειναι εκατον τριακοντα ετη· ολιγαι και κακαι υπηρξαν αι ημεραι των ετων της ζωης μου και δεν εφθασαν εις τας ημερας των ετων της ζωης των πατερων μου εν ταις ημεραις της παροικιας αυτων.

10 Και ευλογησεν ο Ιακωβ τον Φαραω και εξηλθεν απ' εμπροσθεν του Φαραω.

11 Και κατωκισεν ο Ιωσηφ τον πατερα αυτου και τους αδελφους αυτου, και εδωκεν εις αυτους ιδιοκτησιαν εν τη γη της Αιγυπτου, εις το καλητερον της γης, εν τη γη Ραμεσση, καθως προσεταξεν ο Φαραω.

12 Και ετρεφεν ο Ιωσηφ τον πατερα αυτου και τους αδελφους αυτου και παντα τον οικον του πατρος αυτου με αρτον, κατα τας οικογενειας αυτων.

13 Και αρτος δεν ητο καθ' ολην την γην· διοτι η πεινα ητο βαρεια σφοδρα, ωστε η γη της Αιγυπτου και η γη της Χανααν απεκαμον υπο της πεινης.

14 Και συνηγαγεν ο Ιωσηφ απαν το αργυριον, το ευρισκομενον εν τη γη της Αιγυπτου και εν τη γη Χανααν, δια τον σιτον τον οποιον ηγοραζον· και εφερεν ο Ιωσηφ το αργυριον εις τον οικον του Φαραω.

15 Και αφου εξελιπε το αργυριον εκ της γης Αιγυπτου και εκ της γης Χανααν, ηλθον παντες οι Αιγυπτιοι προς τον Ιωσηφ, λεγοντες, Δος αρτον εις ημας· επειδη δια τι να αποθανωμεν εμπροσθεν σου; διοτι εξελιπε το αργυριον.

16 Ειπε δε ο Ιωσηφ, Φερετε τα κτηνη σας και θελω σας δωσει αρτον αντι των κτηνων σας, εαν εξελιπε το αργυριον.

17 Και εφεραν τα κτηνη αυτων προς τον Ιωσηφ και εδωκεν εις αυτους ο Ιωσηφ αρτον αντι των ιππων και αντι των προβατων και αντι των βοων και αντι των ονων· και εθρεψεν αυτους με αρτον εν τω ενιαυτω εκεινω αντι παντων των κτηνων αυτων.

18 Αφου δε ετελειωσεν ο ενιαυτος εκεινος, ηλθον προς αυτον το δευτερον ετος και ειπον προς αυτον, δεν θελομεν κρυψει απο του κυριου ημων οτι εξελιπε το αργυριον· και τα κτηνη εγειναν του κυριου ημων· δεν εμεινεν αλλο εμπροσθεν του κυριου ημων, ειμη τα σωματα ημων και η γη ημων·

19 δια τι να απολεσθωμεν ενωπιον σου και ημεις και η γη ημων; αγορασον ημας και την γην ημων δια αρτον· και θελομεν εισθαι ημεις και η γη ημων δουλοι εις τον Φαραω· και δος εις ημας σπορον, δια να ζησωμεν και να μη αποθανωμεν και η γη να μη ερημωθη.

20 Και ηγορασεν ο Ιωσηφ πασαν την γην Αιγυπτου δια τον Φαραω· διοτι οι Αιγυπτιοι επωλησαν εκαστος τον αγρον αυτου, επειδη η πεινα υπερεβαρυνεν επ' αυτους· ουτως η γη εγεινε του Φαραω·

21 τον δε λαον μετετοπισεν αυτον εις πολεις, απ' ακρου των οριων της Αιγυπτου εως ακρου αυτης·

22 μονον την γην των ιερεων δεν ηγορασε· διοτι οι ιερεις ειχον μεριδιον προσδιωρισμενον υπο του Φαραω· και ετρωγον το μεριδιον αυτων, το οποιον εδωκεν εις αυτους ο Φαραω· δια τουτο δεν επωλησαν την γην αυτων.

23 Τοτε ειπεν ο Ιωσηφ προς τον λαον, Ιδου, ηγορασα εσας και την γην σας σημερον εις τον Φαραω· ιδου, λαβετε σπορον και σπειρατε την γην·

24 και εν τω καιρω των γεννηματων, θελετε δωσει το πεμπτον εις τον Φαραω· τα δε τεσσαρα μερη θελουσιν εισθαι εις εσας δια σπορον των αγρων και δια τροφην σας και δια τους οντας εν τοις οικοις υμων και δια τροφην των παιδιων υμων.

25 Οι δε ειπον, συ εσωσας την ζωην ημων· ας ευρωμεν χαριν εμπροσθεν του κυριου ημων και θελομεν εισθαι δουλοι του Φαραω.

26 Και εθεσεν ο Ιωσηφ τουτο νομον εν τη γη της Αιγυπτου μεχρι της σημερον, να διδεται το πεμπτον εις τον Φαραω· εκτος της γης των ιερεων μονον, ητις δεν εγεινε του Φαραω.

27 Κατωκησε δε ο Ισραηλ εν τη γη της Αιγυπτου, εν τη γη Γεσεν· και απεκτησαν εν αυτη κτηματα, και ηυξηνθησαν και επληθυνθησαν σφοδρα.

28 Επεζησε δε ο Ιακωβ εν τη γη της Αιγυπτου δεκαεπτα ετη· και εγειναν αι ημεραι των ετων της ζωης του Ιακωβ εκατον τεσσαρακοντα επτα ετη.

29 Και επλησιασαν αι ημεραι του Ισραηλ δια να αποθανη· και καλεσας τον υιον αυτου τον Ιωσηφ, ειπε προς αυτον, Εαν ευρηκα τωρα χαριν εμπροσθεν σου, βαλε, παρακαλω, την χειρα σου υπο τον μηρον μου, και καμε εις εμε ελεος και αληθειαν· μη με θαψης, παρακαλω, εν τη Αιγυπτω·

30 αλλα θελω κοιμηθη μετα των πατερων μου και θελεις με μετακομισει εκ της Αιγυπτου και θελεις με θαψει εν τω ταφω αυτων. Ο δε ειπεν, Εγω θελω καμει κατα τον λογον σου.

31 Ο δε ειπεν, Ομοσον μοι και ωμοσεν εις αυτον. Και προσεκυνησεν ο Ισραηλ επι το ακρον της ραβδου αυτου.

Arcana Coelestia # 2838

2838. 'As it is said today' means that which is perpetual. This is clear from the meaning of 'today' in the Word, dealt with below. One frequently reads in the Word the phrase 'even to this day (or today)', as in what has gone before,

He is the father of Moab even to this day, and the father of Ammon even to this day. Genesis 19:37-38; and in what appears later on,

The name of the city is Beersheba even to this day. Genesis 26:33; also,

The children of Israel do not eat the sinew of that which was displaced, which is on the hollow of the thigh, even to this day. Genesis 32:32; as well as,

This is the pillar of Rachel's grave even to [this] day. Genesis 35:20.

Joseph made it a statute even to this day. Genesis 47:26.

In the historical sense 'to this day' and 'today' refer to the time when Moses was alive, but in the internal sense these expressions mean perpetuity and eternity of state. 'Day' means state, see 23, 487, 488, 493, 893, and so therefore does 'today', which is the present time. That which in the world is temporal is in heaven eternal. To give the meaning of that which is eternal, the expression today or else to this day has been added, though to those who are aware only of the historical sense it does not appear to embody anything further. Similar usages of these expressions occur elsewhere in the Word, such as Joshua 4:9; 6:25; 7:26; Judges 1:21, 26; and in other places.

[2] That 'today' means that which is perpetual and eternal may be seen in David,

I will tell of the statute: Jehovah has said to me, You are My Son; today I have begotten You. Psalms 2:7.

Here 'today' plainly stands for that which is eternal. In the same author,

For ever, O Jehovah, Your Word is fixed in the heavens, Your truth to generation after generation. You have established the earth and it stands. As for Your judgements they stand [even] today. Psalms 119:89-91.

Here also 'today' plainly stands for that which is eternal. In Jeremiah,

Before I formed you in the belly, I knew you, and before you came out of the womb I consecrated you; I appointed you a prophet to the nations. I have set you this day (today) over nations and over kingdoms; and I have made you today into a fortified city, and into a pillar of iron, and into walls of bronze. Jeremiah 1:5, 10, 18.

This refers in the sense of the letter to Jeremiah, but in the internal sense the Lord is meant. 'I have set you this day (or today) over nations and over kingdoms, and I have made you today into a fortified city' means from eternity. In regard to the Lord one can only speak of that which is eternal.

[3] In Moses,

You are standing today, all of you, before Jehovah your God, so that you may enter into the covenant of Jehovah your God, and into His oath, which Jehovah your God is making with you today, that He may establish you today as a people for Himself, and that He will be God to you. Not indeed with you alone [do I make it], but with those who stand with us here today before Jehovah our God, and with those who are not with us today. Deuteronomy 29:10, 12-15.

Here in the sense of the letter 'today' means that present time when

Moses addressed the people. Yet it is clear that it nevertheless implies subsequent times and what is perpetual; for making a covenant with anyone, and with those who were there and with those who were not, implies that which is perpetual. Perpetuity itself is what is meant in the internal sense.

[4] That 'daily' and 'today' mean that which is perpetual is clear also from the sacrifice that was offered each day. This sacrifice, because of what is meant by day, daily, and today, was called the continual, or perpetual, sacrifice, Numbers 28:3, 23; Daniel 8:13; 11:31; 12:11. This may be even more plainly evident from the manna which rained from heaven, spoken of in Moses as follows,

Behold, I am causing bread to rain from heaven, and the people shall go out and gather a portion day by day. And they shall not leave any of it until the morning. That which they did leave until the morning bred worms and went rotten, except that gathered on the day before the Sabbath. Exodus 16:4, 19-20, 23.

This happened because 'the manna' meant the Lord's Divine Human, John 6:31-32, 49-50, 58, and because the Lord's Divine Human meant heavenly food, which is nothing other than love and charity, together with the goods and truths of faith. In heaven the Lord imparts this food to angels moment by moment, thus perpetually and eternally, see 2193. This is also what is meant in the Lord's Prayer by the petition, Give us today our daily bread, Matthew 6:11; Luke 11:3, that is, in every moment for evermore.

Genesis 21

1 Yahweh visited Sarah as he had said, and Yahweh did to Sarah as he had spoken.

2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.

3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.

4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.

5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.

6 Sarah said, "God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me."

7 She said, "Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age."

8 The child grew, and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.

9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.

10 Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this handmaid and her son! For the son of this handmaid will not be heir with my son, Isaac."

11 The thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son.

12 God said to Abraham, "Don't let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your handmaid. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For from Isaac will your seed be called.

13 I will also make a nation of the son of the handmaid, because he is your seed."

14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.

15 The water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.

16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, "Don't let me see the death of the child." She sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.

17 God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, "What ails you, Hagar? Don't be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.

18 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him in your hand. For I will make him a great nation."

19 God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the bottle with water, and gave the boy drink.

20 God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.

21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.

22 It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.

23 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner."

24 Abraham said, "I will swear."

25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.

26 Abimelech said, "I don't know who has done this thing. Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today."

27 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.

28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.

29 Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?"

30 He said, "You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well."

31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore there.

32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.

33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of Yahweh, the Everlasting God.

34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
