Jonah 3

pag-aaral

   

1 Men HE ENs Ord kom for anden gang til Jonas således:

2 "Stå op og gå til Nineve, den store Stad, og udråb over den, hvad jeg tilsiger dig!"

3 Så stod Jonas op og gik til Nineve efter HE ENs Ord. Men Nineve var selv for Gud en stor By, tre Dagsrejser stor.

4 Da nu Jonas var gået den første dagsrejse ind i Byen, råbte han: "Om fyrretyve Dage skal Nineve styrtes i Grus!"

5 Da troede Folkene i Nineve på Gud, og de udråbte en Faste og klædte sig i Sæk, både store og små;

6 og da Sagen kom Nineves Konge for Øre, stod han op fra sin Trone, tog Kappen af, klædte sig i Sæk og satte sig i Støvet,

7 og han lod udråbe i Nineve: "Kongen og hans Stormænd gør vitterligt: Hverken Folk eller Fæ, Hornkvæg eller Småkvæg, må nyde noget, græsse eller drikke Vand;

8 men Folk og Fæ skal klædes i Sæk og opløfte et vældigt Skrig til Gud og omvende sig, hver fra sin onde Vej og den Uret, som hænger ved deres Hænder.

9 Måske vil Gud da angre og holde sin glødende Vrede tilbage, så vi ikke omkommer."

10 Da Gud så, hvad de gjorde, hvorledes de omvendte sig fra deres onde Vej, angrede han den Ulykke, han havde truet med at føre over dem, og gjorde ikke Alvor deraf.

God

  
Ancient of Days, by William Blake

When the Bible speaks of "Jehovah," it is representing love itself, the inmost love that is the essence of the Lord. That divine love is one, whole and complete in itself, and Jehovah also is one, a name applied only to the Lord. The divine love expresses itself in the form of wisdom. Love, then, is the essence of God -- His inmost. Wisdom -- the loving understanding of how to put love into action -- is slightly more external, giving love a way to express itself. Wisdom, however, is expressed in a great variety of thoughts and ideas, what the Writings collectively call divine truth. There are also many imaginary gods, and sometimes angels and people can be called gods (the Lord said Moses would be as a god to Aaron). So when the Bible calls the Lord "God," it is in most cases referring to divine truth. In other cases, "God" has reference to what is called the divine human. The case there is this: As human beings, we cannot engage the Lord directly as divine love. It is too powerful and too pure. Instead, we have to approach Him by understanding Him through divine truth. Divine truth, then, is the Lord in human form, a form we can approach and understand. Thus "God" is also used in reference to this human aspect, because it is an expression of truth.
