以西結書 21

1 耶和華的臨到我說:

2 人子啊,你要面向耶路撒冷和聖所滴下預言,攻擊以色列地。

3 以色列耶和華如此:我與你為敵,並要拔刀出鞘,從你中間將人和惡人一併剪除。

4 我既要從你中間剪除人和惡人,所以我的刀要出鞘,自攻擊一切有血氣的;

5 一切有血氣的就知道我─耶和華已經拔刀出鞘,必不再入鞘。

6 人子啊,你要歎息,在他們眼前彎著腰,苦苦地歎息。

7 他們問你:為何歎息呢﹖你就:因為有風聲、災禍要。人都必消化,都發軟,精神衰敗,膝弱如。看哪,這災禍臨近,必然成就。這是耶和華的。

8 耶和華的臨到我說:

9 人子啊,你要預言。耶和華吩咐我如此:有刀、有刀,是磨快擦亮的;

10 磨快為要行殺戮,擦亮為要像閃電。我們豈可快樂麼﹖罰我子的杖藐視各

11 這刀已經交人擦亮,為要應使用。這刀已經磨快擦亮,好交在行殺戮的人中。

12 人子啊,你要呼喊哀號,因為這刀臨到我的百姓和以色列一切的首領。他們和我的百姓都交在刀下,所以你要拍歎息。

13 有試驗的事;若那藐視的杖歸於無有,怎麼樣呢﹖這是耶和華的。

14 人子啊,你要拍掌預言。我─耶和華要使這刀,就是致傷的刀,一連三次加倍刺人,進入他們的內屋,使人受傷的就是這刀。

15 我設立這恐嚇人的刀,攻擊他們的一切城,使他們的消化,加增他們跌倒的事。哎!這刀造得像閃電,磨得尖利,要行殺戮。

16 刀啊,你歸在右邊,擺在左邊;你面向哪方,就向那方殺戮。

17 我也要拍掌,並要使我的忿怒止息。這是我─耶和華的。

18 耶和華的又臨到我說:

19 人子啊,你要定出兩條,好使巴比倫王的刀。這兩條必從分出,又要在通城的口上畫出

20 你要定出一條,使刀到亞捫人的拉巴;又要定出一條,使刀猶大的堅固城耶路撒冷

21 因為巴比倫王站在岔那裡,在兩條口上要占卜。他搖籤(原文是)求問神像,察犧牲的

22 在右手中拿著為耶路撒冷占卜的籤,使他安設撞城錘,張叫殺,揚聲吶喊,築壘造臺,以撞城錘,攻打城

23 據那些曾起誓的猶大人看來,這是虛假的占卜;但巴比倫王要使他們想起罪孽,以致將他們捉住。

24 耶和華如此:因你們的過犯顯露,使你們的孽被記念,以致你們的罪惡在行為上都彰顯出來;又因你們被記念,就被捉住。

25 你這受傷行惡的以色列王啊,罪孽的盡頭到了,受報的日子已到。

26 耶和華如此:當除掉冠,摘下冕,景況必不再像先前;要使卑者升為,使者降為卑。

27 我要將這國傾覆,傾覆,而又傾覆;這國也必不再有,直等到那應得的人到,我就賜他。

28 人子啊,要發預言耶和華論到亞捫人和他們的凌辱,吩咐我如此:有刀,有拔出來的刀,已經擦亮,為行殺戮,使他像閃電以行吞滅。

29 人為你見虛假的異象,行謊詐的占卜,使你倒在受傷之惡人的頸項上。他們罪孽到了盡頭,受報的日子已到。

30 你將刀收入鞘罷!在你受造之處、生長之,我必刑罰你。

31 我必將我的惱恨倒在你身上,將我烈怒的噴在你身上;又將你交在善於殺滅的畜類人中。

32 你必當柴被焚燒,你的血必流在國中,你必不再被記念,因為這是我─耶和華的。

Apocalypse Explained # 728

728. And her offspring was caught up unto God and His throne, signifies the protection of the doctrine by the Lord, because it is for the New Church. This is evident from the signification of "the offspring" (or the son, a male) brought forth by "the woman arrayed with the sun, under whose feet was the moon, and upon whose head was a crown of twelve stars," as being doctrine from the Word, and indeed, the doctrine of truth, that is, the doctrine of love to the Lord and of charity towards the neighbor, and finally of faith. Also from the signification of "caught up unto God and His throne," as being protection by the Lord from "the dragon" that stood before the woman about to bring forth, with the intent and desire of devouring what was brought forth. That protection by the Lord from those who are meant by "the dragon" is here signified by these words. And as that doctrine was to be the doctrine of the church that is called the New Jerusalem, therefore it is said protection because it is for the New Church. It is said "caught up unto God and His throne," "God" meaning the Lord, and "His throne" heaven; it is caught up to the Lord and to heaven because this doctrine is from the Lord, and heaven is in this doctrine.

[2] What is here said of the offspring born of the woman, who "was caught up unto God," is also said of Enoch, the son of Jared, but in these words:

Enoch walked with God, and was no more; because God took him (Genesis 5:24).

Who are here meant by "Enoch," and what "Enoch" signifies, has been disclosed to me from heaven, namely, those of the men of the Most Ancient Church who collected together the representatives and correspondences of natural things with spiritual; for the men of the Most Ancient Church were in the spiritual understanding and perception of all things they saw with their eyes, and thence from the objects in the world they saw through to the spiritual things corresponding to the objects. Because the Lord foresaw that this spiritual perception would perish with their posterity, and with that perception also the knowledge of correspondences through which the human race has conjunction with heaven, therefore the Lord provided that some of those who lived with the most ancient people should collect together the correspondences, and gather them into a manuscript; these are here meant by "Enoch," and that manuscript is what is here signified. Because that manuscript was to serve the coming churches that were to be established by the Lord after the deluge with the knowledge and cognition of the spiritual things that are in natural things, it was preserved by the Lord for their use, and was also guarded, lest the last posterity of the Most Ancient Church, who were evil, should offer injury to it. This, therefore, is what is signified in the spiritual sense by "Enoch was no more, because God took Him." From this it can be seen what is signified by "the offspring of the woman was caught up unto God and His throne."
