出埃及記 13

Studimi

   

1 耶和華曉諭摩西

2 以色列中凡頭生的,無論是人是牲畜,都是我的,要分別為歸我。

3 摩西對百姓:你們要記念從埃及為奴之家出來的這日,因為耶和華用大能的將你們從這地方領出來。有的餅都不可

4 亞筆間的這日是你們出來的日子。

5 將來耶和華領你進迦南人、赫人、亞摩利人、希未人、耶布斯人之,就是他向你的祖宗起誓應許你那流奶與蜜之,那時你要在這間守這禮。

6 你要無酵日,到第七日要向耶和華守節。

7 日之久,要無酵餅;在你四境之內不可見有的餅,也不可見發酵的物。

8 當那日,你要告訴你的兒子:這是因耶和華在我出埃及的時候為我所行的事。

9 這要在你上作記號,在你額上作紀念,使耶和華的律法常在你中,因為耶和華曾用大能的將你從埃及領出來。

10 所以你每年要按著日期守這例。

11 將來,耶和華照他向你和你祖宗所起的誓將你領進迦南人之,把這你,

12 那時你要將一切頭生的,並牲畜中頭生的,歸給耶和華;公的都要屬耶和華

13 凡頭生的,你要用羊羔代贖;若不代贖,就要打折他的頸項。凡你兒子中頭生的都要贖出來。

14 日後,你的兒子問你:這是甚麼意思?你就耶和華用大能的我們埃及為奴之家領出來。

15 那時法老幾乎不容我們去,耶和華就把埃及所有頭生的,無論是人是牲畜,都殺了。因此,我把一切頭生的公牲畜獻給耶和華為祭,但將頭生的兒子都贖出來。

16 這要在你上作記號,在你額上作經文,因為耶和華用大能的我們埃及領出來。

17 法老容百姓去的時候,非利士道路雖近,卻不領他們從那裡走;因為:恐怕百姓遇見打仗後悔,就回埃及去。

18 所以領百姓繞道而行,走紅曠野的以色列人埃及,都帶著兵器上去。

19 摩西把約瑟的骸一同帶去;因為約瑟曾叫以色列人嚴嚴地起誓,對他們說:必眷顧你們,你們要把我的骸從這裡一同帶上去。

20 他們從疏割起行,在曠野邊的以倘安營。

21 日間,耶和華中領他們的;夜間,在中光照他們,使他們日夜都可以行走。

22 日間,夜間,總不離開百姓的面前。

Apocalypse Explained #572

Studioni këtë pasazh

  
/ 1232  
  

572. That they should slay the third part of men.- That this signifies of depriving themselves of all understanding of truth, and thence of spiritual life, is evident from the signification of slaying as denoting to deprive of spiritual life, concerning which, see above (n. 547); and from the signification of men, as denoting the understanding of truth (see also above, n. 546, 547). That the third part, when used in reference to truths, denotes all, may be seen above (n. 506). Here, therefore, by slaying the third part of men, is signified deprivation of all understanding of truth. It is said that they deprive themselves, because those who have become sensual through evils of life and falsities of doctrine by reasonings from fallacies, deprive themselves of the understanding of truth, but not others, except those who are also sensual. The reason why they thence deprive themselves of spiritual life, is, that man acquires spiritual life through the understanding, for in the measure that the understanding is opened by truths, and suffers itself to be enlightened, in the same measure, man becomes spiritual. But the understanding is opened by means of truths from good, but not by means of truths without good; for so far as man lives in the good of love and of charity, so far he thinks truths; for truth is the form of good, and all good with man pertains to his will, and all truth pertains to his understanding, therefore the good of the will manifests its form in the understanding; the form itself is thought from the understanding originating in the will.
