1 И было, после сих происшествий Бог искушал Авраама и сказал ему: Авраам! Он сказал: вот я.

2 Бог сказал: возьми сына твоего, единственного твоего, которого ты любишь, Исаака; и пойди в землю Мориа и там принеси его во всесожжение на одной из гор, о которой Я скажу тебе.

3 Авраам встал рано утром, оседлалосла своего, взял с собою двоих из отроков своих и Исаака, сына своего; наколол дров для всесожжения, и встав пошел на место, о котором сказал ему Бог.

4 На третий день Авраам возвел очи свои, и увидел то место издалека.

5 И сказал Авраам отрокам своим: останьтесь вы здесь с ослом, а я и сын пойдем туда и поклонимся, и возвратимся к вам.

6 И взял Авраам дрова для всесожжения, и возложил на Исаака, сына своего; взял в руки огонь и нож, и пошли оба вместе.

7 И начал Исаак говорить Аврааму, отцу своему, и сказал: отец мой! Он отвечал: вот я, сын мой. Он сказал: вот огонь и дрова, где же агнец для всесожжения?

8 Авраам сказал: Бог усмотрит Себе агнца для всесожжения, сын мой. И шли далее оба вместе.

9 И пришли на место, о котором сказал ему Бог; и устроил там Авраам жертвенник, разложил дрова и, связав сына своего Исаака, положил его на жертвенник поверх дров.

10 И простер Авраам руку свою и взял нож, чтобы заколоть сына своего.

11 Но Ангел Господень воззвал к нему с неба и сказал: Авраам! Авраам! Он сказал: вот я.

12 Ангел сказал: не поднимай руки твоей на отрока и не делай над ним ничего, ибо теперь Я знаю, что боишься ты Бога и не пожалел сына твоего, единственного твоего, для Меня.

13 И возвел Авраам очи свои и увидел: и вот, позади овен, запутавшийся в чаще рогами своими. Авраам пошел, взял овна и принес его во всесожжение вместо сына своего.

14 И нарек Авраам имя месту тому: Иегова-ире. Посему и нынеговорится: на горе Иеговы усмотрится.

15 И вторично воззвал к Аврааму Ангел Господень с неба

16 и сказал: Мною клянусь, говорит Господь, что, так как ты сделал сие дело, и не пожалел сына твоего, единственного твоего,

17 то Я благословляя благословлю тебя и умножая умножу семя твое, как звезды небесные и как песок на берегу моря; и овладеет семя твоегородами врагов своих;

18 и благословятся в семени твоем все народы земли за то, что ты послушался гласа Моего.

19 И возвратился Авраам к отрокам своим, и встали и пошли вместе в Вирсавию; и жил Авраам в Вирсавии.

20 После сих происшествий Аврааму возвестили, сказав: вот, и Милка родила Нахору, брату твоему, сынов:

21 Уца, первенца его, Вуза, брата сему, Кемуила, отца Арамова,

22 Кеседа, Хазо, Пилдаша, Идлафа и Вафуила;

23 от Вафуила родилась Ревекка. Восьмерых сих родила Милка Нахору, брату Авраамову;

24 и наложница его, именем Реума, также родила Теваха, Гахама, Тахаша и Мааху.

2803. As regards Divine Truth being meant by 'son' and Divine Good by 'father', this becomes clear from the meaning of 'son' as truth, dealt with in 489, 491, 533, 1147, 2623, and of 'father' as good, and also from the conception and birth of truth as taking place from good. As has been shown many times, truth cannot have being or manifest itself except from good. The reason 'son' here means Divine Truth, and 'father' Divine Good, is that the union of the Divine Essence with the Human Essence, and of the Human Essence with the Divine Essence, is the Divine Marriage of Divine Good to Truth, and of Truth to Good; and from that marriage comes the heavenly marriage. For within Jehovah or the Lord there is nothing but that which is infinite, and this being so, no other idea can be conceived of Him than that He is the Being and Manifestation (Esse et Existere) of all good and truth, that is, He is Good itself and Truth itself. Good itself is the Father, and Truth itself the Son. Now because the Divine Marriage, as has been stated, is a marriage of Good and Truth, and of Truth and Good, the Father is in the Son, and the Son is in the Father, as the Lord Himself teaches in John,

Jesus said to Philip, Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me. John 14:10-11.

And elsewhere in the same evangelist,

Jesus said to the Jews, Even though you do not believe Me, believe the works, that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father. John 10:36, 38.

And elsewhere,

I pray for them - for all things that are Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine - that they may all be one, as You, Father, are in Me and I in You John 17:9-10, 21.

And elsewhere,

Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God glorified in Him. If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself. Father, glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You. John 13:31-32; 17:1.

[2] From these places one may see the nature of the union of the Divine and of the Human within the Lord - that each is linked mutually to the other and responds to the other - that is, it is a reciprocal union. This is the Union which is called the Divine Marriage, from which the heavenly marriage comes down, which is the Lord's kingdom itself in heaven and is referred to in John as follows,

On that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. John 14:20.

And elsewhere,

I pray for these, that they may all be one, as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be one in Us, I in them and You in Me, that the love with which You have loved Me may be in them, and I in them. John 17:21-23, 26.

[3] As regards this heavenly marriage being a marriage of good and truth, and of truth and good, see 2508, 2618, 2728, 2729 and following paragraphs. And since Divine Good cannot possibly have being or manifest itself without Divine Truth, and Divine Truth cannot possibly do so without Divine Good, but one is always reaching out to and responding to the other, it is therefore plain that the Divine Marriage has existed from eternity, that is, the Father in the Son, and the Son in the Father, as the Lord Himself teaches in John,

Now, Father, glorify Me in Your Own Self with the glory I had with You before the world was. John 17:5, 24.

But the Divine Human that had been born from eternity was also born in time, and what was born in time is the same as that which was glorified. This is what accounts for the Lord's saying many times that He was going to the Father who sent Him, that is, He was returning to the Father. And in John,

In the beginning was the Word (the Word being Divine Truth itself), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made. Furthermore the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld his glory, glory as of the Only Begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:1-3, 14.

See also John 3:13; 6:62.

1 "Don't let your heart be troubled. Believe in God. Believe also in me.

2 In my Father's house are many homes. If it weren't so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you.

3 If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and will receive you to myself; that where I am, you may be there also.

4 Where I go, you know, and you know the way."

5 Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going. How can we know the way?"

6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.

7 If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and have seen him."

8 Philip said to him, "Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us."

9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, 'Show us the Father?'

10 Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father who lives in me does his works.

11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me; or else Believe me for the very works' sake.

12 Most certainly I tell you, he who believes in me, the works that I do, he will do also; and he will do greater works than these, because I am going to my Father.

13 Whatever you will ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 If you will ask anything in my name, I will do it.

15 If you love me, keep my commandments.

16 I will pray to the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, that he may be with you forever,--

17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world can't receive; for it doesn't see him, neither knows him. You know him, for he lives with you, and will be in you.

18 I will not leave you orphans. I will come to you.

19 Yet a little while, and the world will see me no more; but you will see me. Because I live, you will live also.

20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

21 One who has my commandments, and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him."

22 Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, "Lord, what has happened that you are about to reveal yourself to us, and not to the world?"

23 Jesus answered him, "If a man loves me, he will keep my word. My Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our home with him.

24 He who doesn't love me doesn't keep my words. The word which you hear isn't mine, but the Father's who sent me.

25 I have said these things to you, while still living with you.

26 But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things, and will remind you of all that I said to you.

27 Peace I leave with you. My Peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Don't let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.

28 You heard how I told you, 'I go away, and I come to you.' If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I said 'I am going to my Father;' for the Father is greater than I.

29 Now I have told you before it happens so that, when it happens, you may believe.

30 I will no more speak much with you, for the prince of the world comes, and he has nothing in me.

31 But that the world may know that I love the Father, and as the Father commanded me, even so I do. Arise, let us go from here.
