pag-aaral

   

1 Když pakty věci pominuly, zkusil Bůh Abrahama, a řekl k němu: Abrahame! Kterýžto odpověděl: Teď jsem.

2 I řekl: Vezmi nyní syna svého, toho jediného svého, kteréhož miluješ, Izáka, a jdi do země Moria; a obětuj ho tam v obět zápalnou na jedné hoře, o níž povím tobě.

3 Tedy vstav Abraham velmi ráno, osedlal osla svého a vzal dva služebníky své s sebou, a Izáka syna svého; a nasekav dříví k oběti zápalné, vstal a bral se k místu, o němž pověděl mu Bůh.

4 Třetího pak dne pozdvihl Abraham očí svých, a uzřel to místo zdaleka.

5 A řekl Abraham služebníkům svým: Pozůstaňte vy tuto s oslem, já pak a dítě půjdeme tamto; a pomodlíce se, navrátíme se k vám.

6 Tedy vzal Abraham dříví k zápalné oběti, a vložil je na Izáka syna svého; sám pak nesl v ruce své oheň a meč. I šli oba spolu.

7 Mluvě pak Izák Abrahamovi otci svému, řekl: Otče můj! Kterýž odpověděl: Co chceš, synu můj? A řekl: Aj, teď oheň a dříví, a kdež hovádko k zápalné oběti?

8 Odpověděl Abraham: Bůh opatří sobě hovádko k oběti zápalné,synu můj. A šli předce oba spolu.

9 A když přišli k místu, o němž mu byl mluvil Bůh, udělal tu Abraham oltář, a srovnal dříví; a svázav syna svého, vložil ho na oltář na dříví.

10 I vztáhl Abraham ruku svou, a vzal meč, aby zabil syna svého.

11 Tedy zavolal na něho anděl Hospodinův s nebe a řekl: Abrahame, Abrahame! Kterýžto odpověděl: Aj, já.

12 I řekl jemu: Nevztahuj ruky své na dítě, aniž mu co čiň; neboť jsem již poznal, že se Boha bojíš, když jsi neodpustil synu svému, jedinému svému pro mne.

13 A pozdvih Abraham očí svých, viděl, a hle, skopec za ním vězel v trní za rohy své. I šel Abraham a vzal skopce toho, a obětoval jej v obět zápalnou místo syna svého.

14 A nazval Abraham jméno místa toho: Hospodin opatří. Odkudž říká se do dnes: Na hoře Hospodinově opatří se.

15 Zvolal pak anděl Hospodinův na Abrahama podruhé s nebe,

16 A řekl: Skrze sebe samého přisáhl jsem, praví Hospodin, poněvadž jsi učinil tu věc, že jsi neodpustil synu svému, jedinému svému:

17 Požehnám velmi tobě, a velice rozmnožím símě tvé jako hvězdy nebeské, a jako písek, kterýž jest na břehu mořském; nadto dědičně vládnouti bude símě tvé branami nepřátel svých.

18 Ano požehnáni budou v semeni tvém všickni národové země, proto že jsi uposlechl hlasu mého.

19 Tedy navrátil se Abraham k služebníkům svým; a vstavše, šli spolu do Bersabé; nebo bydlil Abraham v Bersabé.

20 A když se tyto věci staly, zvěstováno jest Abrahamovi v tato slova: Aj, porodila také Melcha syny Náchorovi, bratru tvému:

21 Husa prvorozeného svého, a Buza bratra jeho, a Chamuele, otce Aramova;

22 A Kazeda a Azana, a Feldasa, a Jidlafa i Bathuele.

23 Bathuel pak zplodil Rebeku. Osm těchto porodila Melcha Náchorovi, bratru Abrahamovu.

24 Ale i ženina jeho, jejíž jméno bylo Réma, porodila také ona Tábe a Gahama, Thása a Máchu.

2723. As regards Beersheba however, 'Beersheba' means the state and the essential nature of the doctrine, that is to say, it is Divine doctrine to which merely human rational ideas have been allied. This becomes clear from the train of thought in verse 22 to the present verse, 2613, 2614, and also from the meaning of the actual expression in the original language as 'the well of the oath' and 'the well of seven'. 'A well' means the doctrine of faith, see 2702, 2720, 'an oath' means a joining together, 2720, as does 'the covenant established with an oath', 1996, 2003, 2021, 2037; and 'seven' means that which is holy and so that which is Divine, 395, 433, 716, 881. From these meanings it may become clear that 'Beersheba' means doctrine which in itself is Divine together with merely human rational ideas or appearances allied to it.

[2] The fact that this is how the name Beersheba was derived is evident from Abraham's words,

Abraham said, Because you will take the seven ewe-lambs from my hand, that they may be a witness for me that I dug this well. Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because there the two of them swore an oath. And they made a covenant in Beersheba (verses 30-32).

Similarly from Isaac's words recorded in Chapter 26,

So it was on that day, that Isaac's servants came and pointed out to him the reasons for the well which they had dug, and they said to him, We have found water. And he called it Shibah ('an oath' and 'seven'); therefore the name of the city is Beersheba even to this day. Genesis 26:32-33.

This too has to do with wells, about which there was disagreement with Abimelech, and with a covenant made with him. 'Beersheba' means merely human rational ideas which were again allied to the doctrine of faith, and because they were allied to it again and the doctrine was in that way made such that the human mind could grasp it, it is called 'a city' - 'a city' being doctrine in its entirety, see 402, 2268, 2449, 2451. What is more, the name Beersheba is used with a similar meaning in the internal sense in Genesis 22:19; 26:23; 28:10; 46:1, 5; Joshua 15:28; 19:1-2; 1 Samuel 8:2; 1 Kings 19:3, and in the contrary sense in Amos 5:5; 8:13-14. The whole range of celestial and spiritual things taught by doctrine is meant in the internal sense where the land of Canaan is said to range from 'Dan even to Beersheba'; for the land of Canaan means the Lord's kingdom, also the Church, and therefore means the celestial and spiritual things taught by doctrine, as in the Book of Judges.

All the children of Israel came out, and the congregation assembled as one man from Dan even to Beersheba. Judges 20:1.

In the Book of Samuel,

All Israel from Dan even to Beersheba. 1 Samuel 3:20.

Elsewhere in Samuel,

To translate the kingdom from the house of Saul and to set up the throne of David over Israel and over Judah, from Dan even to Beersheba, 2 Samuel 3:10.

Elsewhere in Samuel,

Hushai said to Absalom, Let all Israel be assembled together, from Dan even to Beersheba. 2 Samuel 17:11.

Elsewhere in Samuel, David told Joab to go through all the tribes of Israel from Dan even to Beersheba. 2 Samuel 24:2, 7.

Elsewhere in Samuel,

There died of the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy thousand men. 2 Samuel 24:15.

In the Book of Kings,

Judah dwelt under his vine and under his fig tree, from Dan even to Beersheba, all the days of Solomon. 1 Kings 4:25.

433. 'Cain's being avenged sevenfold' means that it was utterly forbidden to violate separated faith meant by Cain. See what has been shown at verse 15. 'Seventy-sevenfold' means that it was something even more inviolable on account of which condemnation follows the number seven is a holy number is that the seventh day means the celestial man, the celestial Church, the celestial kingdom, and in the highest sense the Lord Himself. Consequently whenever the number seven occurs in the Word it means that which is holy or utterly inviolable. And this holiness or inviolability has reference to, or else is determined by, the subject being dealt with. The same applies to the meaning of the number seventy consisting of seven ages (saecule), 1 for in the Word an age (saeculum) is a span of ten years. When anything extremely holy or utterly inviolable needed to be expressed people used the phrase 'seventy-sevenfold', as the Lord did, when He said that people were to forgive their brother not seven times but seventy times seven, Matthew 18:21-22. By this He meant that they were to forgive as often as he sinned. Their forgiveness was to know no limits, that is, was to be eternal and timeless, which is holy. In the present instance his being avenged seventy-sevenfold means condemnation, for it was utterly and completely forbidden to violate.
