Éxodo 33

Studimi

   

1 Y JEHOVA dijo á Moisés: Ve, sube de aquí, tú y el pueblo que sacaste de la tierra de Egipto, á la tierra de la cual juré á Abraham, Isaac, y Jacob, diciendo: A tu simiente la daré:

2 Y yo enviaré delante de ti el ángel, y echaré fuera al Cananeo y al Amorrheo, y al Hetheo, y al Pherezeo, y al Heveo y al Jebuseo:

3 (A la tierra que fluye leche y miel); porque yo no subiré en medio de ti, porque eres pueblo de dura cerviz, no sea que te consuma en el camino.

4 Y oyendo el pueblo esta sensible palabra, vistieron luto, y ninguno se puso sus atavíos:

5 Pues Jehová dijo á Moisés: Di á los hijos de Israel: Vosotros sois pueblo de dura cerviz: en un momento subiré en medio de ti, y te consumiré: quítate pues ahora tus atavíos, que yo sabré lo que te tengo de hacer.

6 Entonces los hijos de Israel se despojaron de sus atavíos desde el monte Horeb.

7 Y Moisés tomó el tabernáculo, y extendiólo fuera del campo, lejos del campo, y llamólo el tabernáculo del Testimonio. Y fué, que cualquiera que requería á Jehová, salía al tabernáculo del testimonio, que estaba fuera del campo.

8 Y sucedía que, cuando salía Moisés al tabernáculo, todo el pueblo se levantaba, y estaba cada cual en pie á la puerta de su tienda, y miraban en pos de Moisés, hasta que él entraba en el tabernáculo.

9 Y cuando Moisés entraba en el tabernáculo, la columna de nube descendía, y poníase á la puerta del tabernáculo, y Jehová hablaba con Moisés.

10 Y viendo todo el pueblo la columna de nube, que estaba á la puerta del tabernáculo, levantábase todo el pueblo, cada uno á la puerta de su tienda y adoraba.

11 Y hablaba Jehová á Moisés cara á cara, como habla cualquiera á su compañero. Y volvíase al campo; mas el joven Josué, su criado, hijo de Nun, nunca se apartaba de en medio del tabernáculo.

12 Y dijo Moisés á Jehová: Mira, tú me dices á mí: Saca este pueblo: y tú no me has declarado á quién has de enviar conmigo: sin embargo, tú dices: Yo te he conocido por tu nombre, y has hallado también gracia en mis ojos.

13 Ahora, pues, si he hallado gracia en tus ojos, ruégote que me muestres ahora tu camino, para que te conozca, porque halle gracia en tus ojos: y mira que tu pueblo es aquesta gente.

14 Y él dijo: Mi rostro irá contigo, y te haré descansar.

15 Y él respondió: Si tu rostro no ha de ir conmigo, no nos saques de aquí.

16 ¿Y en qué se conocerá aquí que he hallado gracia en tus ojos, yo y tu pueblo, sino en andar tú con nosotros, y que yo y tu pueblo seamos apartados de todos los pueblos que están sobre la faz de la tierra?

17 Y Jehová dijo á Moisés: También haré esto que has dicho, por cuanto has hallado gracia en mis ojos, y te he conocido por tu nombre.

18 El entonces dijo: Ruégote que me muestres tu gloria.

19 Y respondióle: Yo haré pasar todo mi bien delante de tu rostro, y proclamaré el nombre de Jehová delante de ti; y tendré misericordia del que tendré misericordia, y seré clemente para con el que seré clemente.

20 Dijo más: No podrás ver mi rostro: porque no me verá hombre, y vivirá.

21 Y dijo aún Jehová: He aquí lugar junto á mí, y tú estarás sobre la peña:

22 Y será que, cuando pasare mi gloria, yo te pondré en una hendidura de la peña, y te cubriré con mi mano hasta que haya pasado:

23 Después apartaré mi mano, y verás mis espaldas; mas no se verá mi rostro.

10622. 'And He does not at all absolve' means allowing them to exist until they reach their closing stage. This is clear from the meaning of 'absolving' as forgiving sin; but when the words does or will not absolve are added 1 , allowing the thing to exist is meant. The reason why until their closing stage is meant is that the Lord allows evil to exist until it has reached its closing stage or culmination. Various places throughout the Word use the expression 'the close of the age'; and in these places evil may be spoken of as having reached or not having reached its closing stage, at which stage visitation takes place. Since this is the meaning of the words 'He does (or will) not at all absolve' a brief statement must be made showing what to understand by this. In general the closing stage or the close means the end of the Church. And it reaches its end when neither charity nor faith exist any longer, because the Church has turned itself completely away from the Lord and no good at all reigns there any longer, only evil. This is called its close, at which stage visitation takes place. When it takes place all those ruled by evil are cast away, and all those governed by good are accepted. This visitation takes place in the next life, where all who have belonged to the Church from its beginning through to its end dwell together. The casting away of the evil into hell when it takes place and the saving of the good is what is called the last judgement.

[2] In particular the closing stage takes place with every individual person in a very similar manner. When anybody enters the next life, which happens immediately after death, he is allowed to exist among those who are good; even someone bad is allowed to do so. But after a while the person's interiors are opened. If these are evil he is borne away more and more into his own evil, until his will is taken over by his evil, and his understanding by the falsity which goes with that evil. Once this has happened that evil is said to have reached the closing stage in him, and he is cast away into hell. These are the things that should be understood by 'He will not at all absolve'. The like is meant by what Jehovah said to Moses,

Now, go! lead the people to what I have spoken of to you. Behold, My angel will go before you; and on the day of My visitation I will visit their sin upon them. Exodus 32:34.

[3] The fact that the close means the end of the Church is clear from the following places: In Jeremiah,

With Israel and with Judah I will not bring about the close 2 , but I will not treat you as one who is at all innocent 3 , because there is no hope for your fracture; the wound is grievous. You have no restorative medicaments. Jeremiah 30:11-13; 46:28.

In the same prophet,

Your iniquity, O daughter of Zion, has been brought to a close. He will visit your iniquity, O daughter of Edom, He will reveal your sins. Lamentations 4:22.

In Daniel,

Seventy weeks have been decreed concerning your people, to bring transgression to a close and to seal up sins and to atone for iniquity. At length upon the bird of abominations will come desolation; and until the close ... Daniel 9:24, 27.

In Matthew,

The harvest is the close of the age. As the tares are gathered and burned in the fire, so will it be at the close of the age. Matthew 13:39-40.

In the same gospel,

The disciples said to Jesus, Tell us, what will be the sign of Your coming and of the close of the age? Matthew 24:3.

In the same gospel,

Jesus said, Behold I am with you at all times 4 even to the close of the age. Matthew 28:20.

Fusnotat:

1. i.e. when he does not absolve is added to absolving; literally, and absolving He does not absolve

2. i.e. He will not make an end of Israel and Judah, as He will of the nations among whom they are exiled

3. literally, nor rendering will I render you innocent

4. literally, I am with you all the days
