4 Mose 27

Studimi

   

1 Und die Töchter Zelophehads, des Sohnes Hephers, des Sohnes Gileads, des Sohnes Machirs, des Sohnes Manasses, unter den Geschlechtern Manasses, des Sohnes Josephs, mit Namen Mahela, Noa, Hogla, Milka und Thirza, kamen herzu

2 und traten vor Mose und vor Eleasar, den Priester, und vor die Fürsten und die ganze Gemeinde vor der Tür der Hütte des Stifts und sprachen:

3 Unser Vater ist gestorben in der Wüste und war nicht mit unter der Gemeinde, die sich wider den HERRN empörte in der Rotte Korahs, sondern ist an seiner Sünde gestorben, und hatte keine Söhne.

4 Warum soll denn unsers Vaters Name unter seinem Geschlecht untergehen, weil er keinen Sohn hat? Gebt uns auch ein Gut unter unsers Vaters Brüdern!

5 Mose brachte ihre Sache vor den HERRN.

6 Und der HERR sprach zu ihm:

7 Die Töchter Zelophehads haben recht geredet; du sollst ihnen ein Erbgut unter ihres Vaters Brüdern geben und sollst ihres Vaters Erbe ihnen zuwenden.

8 Und sage den Kindern Israel: Wenn jemand stirbt und hat nicht Söhne, so sollt ihr sein Erbe seiner Tochter zuwenden.

9 Hat er keine Tochter, sollt ihr's seinen Brüdern geben.

10 Hat er keine Brüder, sollt ihr's seines Vaters Brüdern geben.

11 Hat er nicht Vatersbrüder, sollt ihr's seinen nächsten Blutsfreunden geben, die ihm angehören in seinem Geschlecht, daß sie es einnehmen. Das soll den Kindern Israel ein Gesetz und Recht sein, wie der HERR dem Mose geboten hat.

12 Und der HERR sprach zu Mose: Steig auf dies Gebirge Abarim und besiehe das Land, das ich den Kindern Israel gebe werde.

13 Und wenn du es gesehen hast, sollst du dich sammeln zu deinem Volk, wie dein Bruder Aaron versammelt ist,

14 dieweil ihr meinem Wort ungehorsam gewesen seid in der Wüste Zin bei dem Hader der Gemeinde, da ihr mich heiligen solltet durch das Wasser vor ihnen. Das ist das Haderwasser zu Kades in der Wüste Zin.

15 Und Mose redete mit dem HERRN und sprach:

16 Der HERR, der Gott der Geister alles Fleisches, wolle einen Mann setzen über die Gemeinde,

17 der vor ihnen her aus und ein gehe und sie aus und ein führe, daß die Gemeinde des HERRN nicht sei wie die Schafe ohne Hirten.

18 Und der HERR sprach zu Mose: Nimm Josua zu dir, den Sohn Nuns, einen Mann, in dem der Geist ist, und lege deine Hände auf ihn

19 und stelle ihn vor den Priester Eleasar und vor die ganze Gemeinde und gebiete ihm vor ihren Augen,

20 und lege von deiner Herrlichkeit auf ihn, daß ihm gehorche die ganze Gemeinde der Kinder Israel.

21 Und er soll treten vor den Priester Eleasar, der soll für ihn ratfragen durch die Weise des Lichts vor dem HERRN. Nach desselben Mund sollen aus und einziehen er und alle Kinder Israel mit ihm und die ganze Gemeinde.

22 Mose tat, wie ihm der HERR geboten hatte, und nahm Josua und stellte ihn vor den Priester Eleasar und vor die ganze Gemeinde

23 und legte seine Hand auf ihn und gebot ihm, wie der HERR mit Mose geredet hatte.

3702. And behold Jehovah standing upon it. That this signifies the Lord in the highest, is evident from the fact that in the Word of the Old Testament the Lord is so often called “Jehovah” (see n. 1736, 3023, 3035); and that in the Word of the New Testament He is nowhere called “Jehovah,” but instead of Jehovah “the Lord” (n. 2921). That “standing upon it,” signifies to be in the highest, is evident without explication. The arcanum which lies concealed in the internal sense of these words, is that all goods and truths descend from the Lord, and ascend to Him; that is, that He is the first and the last; for man has been so created that the Divine things of the Lord may descend through him down to the ultimates of nature, and from the ultimates of nature may ascend to Him; so that man might be a medium that unites the Divine with the world of nature, and the world of nature with the Divine; and that thus the very ultimate of nature might live from the Divine through man as the uniting medium; which would be the case if man had lived according to Divine order.

[2] That man was so created is evident from the fact that as to his body he is a little world, for all the arcana of the world of nature are stored within him; for every hidden property there is in the ether and its modifications is stored within the eye; and every property in the air is stored within the ear; and whatever invisible thing floats and acts in the air is in the organ of smell where it is perceived; and whatever invisible thing there is in waters and other fluids is in the organ of taste; and the very changes of state are in the sense of touch everywhere in the body; besides that things still more hidden would be perceived in his interior organs if his life were in accordance with order. Hence it is evident that there would be a descent of the Divine through man into the ultimate of nature, and from the ultimate of nature there would be an ascent to the Divine, if with faith of heart, that is, with love, man would only acknowledge the Lord as his first and last end.

[3] In such a state were the most ancient people, who were celestial men; for whatever they apprehended by any sense was to them a means for thinking concerning the things of the Lord; thus concerning the Lord and His kingdom; and from this came the delight they derived from things worldly and terrestrial (see n. 1409, 2896, 2897, 2995). Moreover when they thus contemplated the lower and ultimate things of nature, these appeared before their eyes as if they were alive; for the life from which they descended was in their internal sight and perception, and the objects presented to their eyes were as images of this life; which images, although inanimate, to them were thereby animated. Such is the perception the celestial angels have regarding all things in the world; as has frequently been given me to perceive; and hence also little children have such a perception (n. 2297, 2298). From all this we can see what is the quality of those through whom the Divine things of the Lord descend down to the ultimates of nature, and from the ultimates of nature ascend to Him, and represent the Divine communication and the consequent conjunction which in the supreme sense are signified by the “angels ascending and descending on the ladder set on the earth, whose head reached unto heaven, and upon which stood Jehovah.”

Leviticus 20

1 Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

2 "Moreover, you shall tell the children of Israel, 'Anyone of the children of Israel, or of the strangers who live as foreigners in Israel, who gives any of his seed to Molech; he shall surely be put to death. The people of the land shall stone him with stones.

3 I also will set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people because he has given of his seed to Molech, to defile my sanctuary, and to profane my holy name.

4 If the people of the land all hide their eyes from that person, when he gives of his seed to Molech, and don't put him to death;

5 then I will set my face against that man, and against his family, and will cut him off, and all who play the prostitute after him, to play the prostitute with Molech, from among their people.

6 "'The person that turns to those who are mediums, and to the wizards, to play the prostitute after them, I will even set my face against that person, and will cut him off from among his people.

7 "'Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be holy; for I am Yahweh your God.

8 You shall keep my statutes, and do them. I am Yahweh who sanctifies you.

9 "'For everyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death: he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood shall be upon him.

10 "'The man who commits adultery with another man's wife, even he who commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

11 "'The man who lies with his father's wife has uncovered his father's nakedness: both of them shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

12 "'If a man lies with his daughter-in-law, both of them shall surely be put to death: they have committed a perversion; their blood shall be upon them.

13 "'If a man lies with a male, as with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

14 "'If a man takes a wife and her mother, it is wickedness: they shall be burned with fire, both he and they; that there may be no wickedness among you.

15 "'If a man lies with an animal, he shall surely be put to death; and you shall kill the animal.

16 "'If a woman approaches any animal, and lies down with it, you shall kill the woman, and the animal: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.

17 "'If a man takes his sister, his father's daughter, or his mother's daughter, and sees her nakedness, and she sees his nakedness; it is a shameful thing; and they shall be cut off in the sight of the children of their people: he has uncovered his sister's nakedness; he shall bear his iniquity.

18 "'If a man lies with a woman having her monthly period, and uncovers her nakedness; he has made naked her fountain, and she has uncovered the fountain of her blood: and both of them shall be cut off from among their people.

19 "'You shall not uncover the nakedness of your mother's sister, nor of your father's sister; for he has made naked his close relative: they shall bear their iniquity.

20 If a man lies with his uncle's wife, he has uncovered his uncle's nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.

21 "'If a man takes his brother's wife, it is an impurity: he has uncovered his brother's nakedness; they shall be childless.

22 "'You shall therefore keep all my statutes, and all my ordinances, and do them; that the land, where I am bringing you to dwell, may not vomit you out.

23 You shall not walk in the customs of the nation, which I am casting out before you: for they did all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.

24 But I have said to you, "You shall inherit their land, and I will give it to you to possess it, a land flowing with milk and honey." I am Yahweh your God, who has separated you from the peoples.

25 "'You shall therefore make a distinction between the clean animal and the unclean, and between the unclean fowl and the clean: and you shall not make yourselves abominable by animal, or by bird, or by anything with which the ground teems, which I have separated from you as unclean for you.

26 You shall be holy to me: for I, Yahweh, am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples, that you should be mine.

27 "'A man or a woman that is a medium, or is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones; their blood shall be upon them.'"
