以西结书 38

Studie

   

1 耶和华的临到我说:

2 人子啊,你要面向玛各的歌革,就是罗施、米设、土巴的王发预言攻击他,

3 耶和华如此:罗施、米设、土巴的王歌革啊,我与你为敌。

4 我必用钩子钩住你的腮颊,调你,将你和你的军兵、马匹兵带出来,都披挂整齐,成了大队,有大小盾牌,各拿刀

5 波斯人、古实人,和弗人(又作吕彼亚人),各拿盾牌,头上戴盔;

6 歌篾人和他的军队,北方极处的陀迦玛族和他的军队,这许多国的民都同着你。

7 那聚集到你这里的各队都当准备;你自己也要准备,作他们的大帅。

8 过了多日,你必被差派。到末後之年,你必到脱离刀从列国收回之,到以色列常久荒凉的上;但那从列国中招聚出的必在其上安然居住

9 你和你的军队,并同着你许多国的民,必如暴风上,如密遮盖地面

10 耶和华如此:到那时,你心必起意念,图谋恶计,

11 :我要上那无城墙的乡村,我要到那安静的民那里,他们都没有城墙,无、无闩,安然居住

12 我去要抢财为掳物,夺货为掠物,反攻击那从前荒凉、现在有人居住,又攻击那世界中间、从列国招聚、得了牲畜财货的民。

13 示巴人、底但人、他施的客商,和其间的少壮狮子都必问你:你要抢财为掳物麽?你聚集军队要夺货为掠物麽?要夺取,掳去牲畜、财货麽?要抢夺许多财宝为掳物麽?

14 人子啊,你要因此发预言,对歌革耶和华如此:到我民以色列安然居住之日,你岂不知道麽?

15 你必从本地,从北方的极处率领许多国的民,都,乃一队极多的军兵。

16 歌革啊,你必上攻击我的民以色列,如密遮盖地面。末後的日子,我必攻击我的,到我在外邦人眼前,在你身上显为的时候,好叫他们认识我。

17 耶和华如此:我在古时藉我的仆人以色列的先知的,就是你麽?当日他们多年预言我必攻击以色列人

18 耶和华:歌革上攻击以色列地的时候,我的怒气要从鼻孔里发出。

19 我发愤恨和烈怒如:那日在以色列地必有震动,

20 甚至中的鱼、天空的、田野的兽,并上的一切昆虫,和其上的众人,因见我的面就都震动;岭必崩裂,陡岩必塌陷,垣都必坍倒。

21 耶和华:我必命我的诸发刀来攻击歌革;都要用刀杀害弟兄。

22 我必用瘟疫和流血的事刑罚他。我也必将暴、大雹与,并硫磺降与他和他的军队,并他所率领的众民。

23 我必显为大,显为,在多国人的眼前显现;他们就知道我是耶和华

Apocalypse Explained #505

/ 1232  
  

505. And they were cast unto the earth, signifies progression towards the lower parts, where the evil were. This is evident from the signification of "being cast unto the earth," namely, "hail and fire mingled with blood," which was effected by "the first angel sounding," as being to advance towards the lower parts, where the evil were consociated, with whom also there were some of the good. This signifies progression towards the lower parts, because the changes and desolations that are signified by "the third part of the trees and all the green grass were burnt up," were effected progressively towards the lower parts where the evil were, as has been said above. "The earth" means here the lower parts, because these things were seen by John when he was in the spirit, that is, when he was in the spiritual world; for man's spirit, when it has its sight opened, sees the things that are in the spiritual world and in that world there are mountains, hills, and valleys, and upon the mountains and hills there are the angelic heavens, but in the valleys below are those who have not yet been taken up into heaven; on these, therefore, there were now the evil mixed with the good; wherefore these valleys that were below the mountains and hills are here meant by "the earth" (or land); so "to be cast unto the earth" means out of the heavens towards the lower parts. But when mountains, hills, and valleys taken together are called "the earth," then "the earth" signifies the church there.

Revelation 1:13-16

Studie

  

13 And among the lampstands was one like a son of man, clothed with a robe reaching down to his feet, and with a golden sash around his chest.

14 His head and his hair were white as white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire.

15 His feet were like burnished brass, as if it had been refined in a furnace. His voice was like the voice of many waters.

16 He had seven stars in his right hand. Out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining at its brightest.
