507. And those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and be glad. (11:10) This symbolizes the delight of the heart and soul's affection on that account among those people in the church who were caught up in faith alone as regards their doctrine and life.

Those who dwell on the earth mean people in the church, here people in the church where the faith is faith alone. The earth symbolizes the church in which they are (no. 285). To rejoice and be glad symbolizes a delight of the heart and soul's affection. A delight of the heart's affection is a delight of the will, and a delight of the soul's affection is a delight of the intellect, for in the Word the heart and soul mean a person's will and intellect. Thus the people are said to rejoice and be glad, even though joy and gladness seem to be the same thing. Present in the two, however, is a marriage of the will and intellect, which is also a marriage of goodness and truth, a marriage that exists in each and every particular of the Word, as we showed in The Doctrine of the New Jerusalem Regarding the Sacred Scripture, nos. 80-90.

That is why both terms, to rejoice and be glad, or joy and gladness, are frequently mentioned elsewhere in the Word, as in the following places:

Lo, joy and gladness, the slaying of oxen... (Isaiah 22:13)

They shall obtain joy and gladness; sorrow and sighing shall flee away. (Isaiah 35:10; 51:11)

...cut off has been... joy and gladness from the house of our God. (Joel 1:16)

(Caused to cease will be) the sound of joy and the sound of gladness... (Jeremiah 7:34, cf. 25:10)

...the fast of the tenth shall be for joy and gladness... (Zechariah 8:19)

Be glad in Jerusalem, rejoice in her... (Isaiah 66:10)

Rejoice and be glad, O daughter of Edom... (Lamentations 4:21)

The heavens shall rejoice; be glad you lands. (Psalms 96:11)

You will make me hear joy and gladness... (Psalms 51:8)

Joy and gladness will be found in (Zion).... (Isaiah 51:3)

You will have gladness... many will rejoice at his birth. (Luke 1:14)

I will cause to cease... the sound of joy and the sound of gladness, the sound of the bridegroom and the sound of the bride. (Jeremiah 7:34; 16:9, cf. 25:10; 33:10-11)

Let all those who seek You rejoice and be glad... (Psalms 40:16; 70:4)

Let the righteous be glad..., and let them rejoice in their gladness. (Psalms 68:3)

Be glad in Jerusalem...; rejoice for joy with her... (Isaiah 66:10)

Psalms 68

Studimi

   

1 Let God arise! Let his enemies be scattered! Let them who hate him also flee before him.

2 As smoke is driven away, so drive them away. As wax melts before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.

3 But let the righteous be glad. Let them rejoice before God. Yes, let them rejoice with gladness.

4 Sing to God! Sing praises to his name! Extol him who rides on the clouds: to Yah, his name! Rejoice before him!

5 A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.

6 God sets the lonely in families. He brings out the prisoners with singing, but the rebellious dwell in a sun-scorched land.

7 God, when you went forth before your people, when you marched through the wilderness... Selah.

8 The earth trembled. The sky also poured down rain at the presence of the God of Sinai-- at the presence of God, the God of Israel.

9 You, God, sent a plentiful rain. You confirmed your inheritance, when it was weary.

10 Your congregation lived therein. You, God, prepared your goodness for the poor.

11 The Lord announced the word. The ones who proclaim it are a great company.

12 "Kings of armies flee! They flee!" She who waits at home divides the spoil,

13 while you sleep among the campfires, the wings of a dove sheathed with silver, her feathers with shining gold.

14 When the Almighty scattered kings in her, it snowed on Zalmon.

15 The mountains of Bashan are majestic mountains. The mountains of Bashan are rugged.

16 Why do you look in envy, you rugged mountains, at the mountain where God chooses to reign? Yes, Yahweh will dwell there forever.

17 The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands. The Lord is among them, from Sinai, into the sanctuary.

18 You have ascended on high. You have led away captives. You have received gifts among men, yes, among the rebellious also, that Yah God might dwell there.

19 Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burdens, even the God who is our salvation. Selah.

20 God is to us a God of deliverance. To Yahweh, the Lord, belongs escape from death.

21 But God will strike through the head of his enemies, the hairy scalp of such a one as still continues in his guiltiness.

22 The Lord said, "I will bring you again from Bashan, I will bring you again from the depths of the sea;

23 That you may crush them, dipping your foot in blood, that the tongues of your dogs may have their portion from your enemies."

24 They have seen your processions, God, even the processions of my God, my King, into the sanctuary.

25 The singers went before, the minstrels followed after, in the midst of the ladies playing with tambourines,

26 "Bless God in the congregations, even the Lord in the assembly of Israel!"

27 There is little Benjamin, their ruler, the princes of Judah, their council, the princes of Zebulun, and the princes of Naphtali.

28 Your God has commanded your strength. Strengthen, God, that which you have done for us.

29 Because of your temple at Jerusalem, kings shall bring presents to you.

30 Rebuke the wild animal of the reeds, the multitude of the bulls, with the calves of the peoples. Being humbled, may it bring bars of silver. Scatter the nations that delight in war.

31 Princes shall come out of Egypt. Ethiopia shall hurry to stretch out her hands to God.

32 Sing to God, you kingdoms of the earth! Sing praises to the Lord! Selah.

33 To him who rides on the heaven of heavens, which are of old; behold, he utters his voice, a mighty voice.

34 Ascribe strength to God! His excellency is over Israel, his strength is in the skies.

35 You are awesome, God, in your sanctuaries. The God of Israel gives strength and power to his people. Praise be to God! For the Chief Musician. To the tune of "Lilies." By David.
