Exodo 21

Studie

   

1 Ito nga ang mga hatol na igagawad mo sa harap nila.

2 Kung ikaw ay bumili ng isang aliping Hebreo, ay anim na taong maglilingkod siya; at sa ikapito ay aalis siyang laya na walang sauling bayad.

3 Kung siya'y pumasok na magisa, ay aalis na mag-isa: kung may asawa ay aalis nga ang kaniyang asawa na kasama niya.

4 Kung siya'y bigyan ng kaniyang panginoon ng asawa, at magkaanak sa kaniya ng mga lalake, o mga babae; ang asawa at ang kaniyang mga anak ay magiging sa kaniyang panginoon, at siya'y aalis na magisa.

5 Datapuwa't kung maliwanag na sabihin ng alipin, Aking iniibig ang aking panginoon, ang aking asawa, at ang aking mga anak; ako'y hindi aalis na laya:

6 Kung magkagayo'y dadalhin siya ng kaniyang panginoon sa Dios, at dadalhin siya sa pinto, o sa haligi ng pinto; at bubutasan ng kaniyang panginoon ang kaniyang tainga ng isang pangbutas; at paglilingkuran niya siya magpakailan man.

7 At kung ipagbili ng isang lalake ang kaniyang anak na babae na maging alipin, ay hindi siya aalis na gaya ng pagalis ng mga aliping lalake.

8 Kung siya'y hindi makapagpalugod sa kaniyang panginoon, na umayaw magasawa sa kaniya, ay ipatutubos nga niya siya: walang kapangyarihang ipagbili siya sa isang taga ibang lupa, yamang siya'y nadaya.

9 At kung pinapag-asawa ng bumili sa kaniyang anak na lalake, ay kaniyang ipalalagay siya ng ayon sa kaugalian sa mga anak na babae.

10 Kung siya'y magasawa sa iba, ang kaniyang pagkain, ang kaniyang damit at ang kaniyang kapangyarihang pagkaasawa ay hindi niya babawasan.

11 At kung hindi niya gawin ang tatlong bagay na ito sa kaniya ay aalis nga siya na walang bayad, na walang tubos na salapi.

12 Ang sumakit sa isang tao, na ano pa't mamatay ay papataying walang pagsala.

13 At kung hindi sinasadya ng isang tao, kundi Dios ang naghulog sa kaniyang kamay; ay lalaanan kita ng isang dako na kaniyang tatakasan.

14 At kung magtangka ang sinoman sa kaniyang kapuwa, na pumatay na may daya, ay alisin mo siya sa aking dambana, upang patayin.

15 At ang sumakit sa kaniyang ama o sa kaniyang ina, ay papataying walang pagsala.

16 At ang magnakaw ng isang tao, at ipagbili, o masumpungan sa kaniyang kamay, ay papataying walang pagsala.

17 At ang lumait sa kaniyang ama, o sa kaniyang ina, ay papataying walang pagsala.

18 At kung may magbabag, at saktan ng isa ang isa, ng bato, o ng kaniyang suntok, at hindi mamatay, kundi mahiga lamang sa banig:

19 Kung makabangon uli, at makalakad sa tulong ng kaniyang tungkod, ay ligtas nga yaong sumakit sa kaniya; pagbabayaran lamang niya ang panahong nasayang, at kaniyang pagagalinging maigi.

20 At kung saktan ng sinoman ang kaniyang aliping lalake o babae, ng tungkod at mamatay sa kaniyang kamay; ay parurusahan siyang walang pagsala.

21 Gayon ma'y kung tumagal ng isang araw o dalawa, ay hindi siya parurusahan: sapagka't siya'y kaniyang salapi.

22 At kung may magbabag, at makasakit ng isang babaing buntis, na ano pa't makunan, at gayon ma'y walang karamdamang sumunod: ay tunay na papagbabayarin siya, ayon sa iatang sa kaniya ng asawa ng babae; at siya'y magbabayad ng ayon sa ipasiya ng mga hukom.

23 Datapuwa't kung may anomang karamdamang sumunod, magbabayad ka nga ng buhay kung buhay,

24 Mata kung mata, ngipin kung ngipin, kamay kung kamay, paa kung paa,

25 Paso kung paso, sugat kung sugat, bugbog kung bugbog.

26 At kung saktan ng sinoman ang mata ng kaniyang aliping lalake, o ang mata ng kaniyang aliping babae at mabulag, ay kaniyang palalayain dahil sa kaniyang mata.

27 At kung kaniyang bungalan ang kaniyang aliping lalake, o babae, ay kaniyang palalayain dahil sa kaniyang ngipin.

28 At kung ang isang baka ay manuwag ng isang lalake o ng isang babae, na ano pa't mamatay, ay babatuhing walang pagsala ang baka at ang kaniyang lama'y hindi kakanin; datapuwa't ang may-ari ng baka ay maliligtas.

29 Datapuwa't kung ang baka ay dating manunuwag sa panahong nakaraan, at naisumbong na sa may-ari at hindi niya kinulong, na ano pa't makamatay ng isang lalake, o isang babae: ay babatuhin ang baka at ang may-ari naman ay papatayin.

30 Kung siya'y atangan ng katubusan ay magbibigay nga siya ng katubusan sa kaniyang buhay anomang iatang sa kaniya.

31 Maging manuwag sa isang anak na lalake o babae man, ay gagawin sa kaniya ayon sa kahatulang ito.

32 Kung ang baka ay manuwag sa isang aliping lalake o babae, ay magbabayad ang may-ari ng tatlong pung siklong pilak sa kanilang panginoon, at ang baka ay babatuhin.

33 At kung ang sinoman ay magbubukas ng isang balon, o huhukay ng isang balon at hindi tatakpan, at ang isang baka, o ang isang asno ay mahulog sa loob,

34 Ay sasaulian ng may-ari ng balon; magbabayad siya ng salapi sa may-ari ng mga yaon, at ang patay na hayop ay magiging kaniya.

35 At kung ang baka ng sinoman ay sumakit sa baka ng iba, na ano pa't mamatay; ay kanila ngang ipagbibili ang bakang buhay, at kanilang paghahatiin ang halaga niyaon; at ang patay ay paghahatiin din nila.

36 O kung kilala, na ang baka ay dating manunuwag sa panahong nakaraan, at hindi kinulong ng may-ari; ay tunay ngang magbabayad siya, ng baka kung baka, at ang patay na hayop ay magiging kaniyang sarili.

9021. 'And anyone cursing his father and his mother' means complete rejection of the Lord and of His kingdom by those belonging to the Church, and so profanation of the Church's goodness and truth. This is clear from the meaning of 'cursing' as turning away and separating from, dealt with in 245, 379, 1423, 3530, 3584, 5071, and therefore also complete rejection, since one who turns away and separates from the Lord rejects Him in his heart; and from the meaning of 'father and mother' as the Lord and His kingdom, or in a relative sense goodness and truth that come from the Lord, dealt with in 8897, 9015. The reason why it is a rejection by those within the Church is that the commandments, judgements, and statutes which were declared by the Lord from Mount Sinai were intended specifically for the children of Israel, among whom a representative of the Church was at that time established, and who therefore served to mean the Church, 6426, 6637, 6862, 6868, 7035, 7062, 7198, 7201, 7215, 7223, 7957, 8234, 8805. So it is too that 'cursing father and mother' means profanation; for those within the Church who completely reject the Lord and the things of His kingdom and Church profane them. The fact that those within the Church can profane holy things, but not those outside the Church, see 1008, 1010, 1059, 2051, 3398, 3399, 3898, 4289, 4601, 6348, 6959, 6963, 6971, 8882. Consequently rejection of the Lord is not profanation among those who are outside the Church; it is not such among gentiles, Muslims, or Jews.

1919. That 'Abram said to Sarai' means perception is clear from what has been stated above in 1898. The perception which the Lord had was represented and is here meant by 'Abram said to Sarai', but thought which sprang from that perception is meant by 'Sarai said to Abram' - perception being the source of thought. The thought possessed by those who have perception comes from no other source. Yet perception is not the same as thought. To see that it is not the same, let conscience serve to 'illustrate this consideration.

[2] Conscience is a kind of general and thus obscure dictate which presents those things that flow in from the Lord by way of the heavens. Those things that flow in manifest themselves in the interior rational man where they are enveloped so to speak in cloud. This cloud is the product of appearances and illusions concerning the goods and truths of faith. Thought is, in truth, distinct and separate from conscience; yet it flows from conscience, for people who have conscience think and speak according to it. Indeed thought is scarcely anything more than a loosening of the various strands that make up conscience, and a converting of these into separate ideas which pass into words. Hence it is that the Lord holds those who have conscience in good thoughts regarding the neighbour and withholds them from evil thoughts. For this reason conscience can never exist except with people who love the neighbour as themselves and have good thoughts regarding the truths of faith. These considerations brought forward here show how conscience differs from thought, and from this one may recognize how perception differs from thought.

[3] The Lord's perception came directly from Jehovah, and so from Divine Good, whereas His thought came from intellectual truth and the affection for it, as stated above in 1904, 1914. No idea, not even an angelic one, is adequate as a means to apprehend the Lord's Divine perception, and thus this lies beyond description. The perception which angels have - described in 1384 and following paragraphs, 1394, 1395 - adds up to scarcely anything at all when contrasted with the perception that was the Lord's. Because the Lord's perception was Divine, it was a perception of everything in heaven; and being a perception of everything in heaven it was also a perception of everything on earth. For such is the order, interconnection, and influx that anyone who has a perception of heavenly things has a perception of earthly as well.

[4] But after the Lord's Human Essence had become united to His Divine Essence, and had become at the same time Jehovah, the Lord was then above what is called perception, for He was above the order which exists in the heavens and from there upon earth. It is Jehovah who is the source of order, and therefore one may say that Jehovah is Order itself, for from Himself He governs order, not merely, as is supposed, in the universal but also in its most specific singulars, for it is these singulars that make up the universal. To speak of the universal and then separate such singulars from it would be no different from speaking of a whole that has no parts within it and so no different from speaking of something consisting of nothing. Thus it is sheer falsity - a figment of the imagination, as it is called - to speak of the Lord's Providence as belonging to the universal but not to its specific singulars; for to provide and govern universally but not specifically is to provide and govern absolutely nothing. This is true philosophically, yet, strange to say, philosophers themselves, including the more eminent, understand this matter in a different way and think in a different way.
