1 وكلم الرب موسى قائلا.

2 كلم بني اسرائيل ان يرجعوا وينزلوا امام فم الحيروث بين مجدل والبحر امام بعل صفون. مقابله تنزلون عند البحر.

3 فيقول فرعون عن بني اسرائيل هم مرتبكون في الارض. قد استغلق عليهم القفر.

4 واشدّد قلب فرعون حتى يسعى وراءهم. فاتمجد بفرعون وبجميع جيشه. ويعرف المصريون اني انا الرب. ففعلوا هكذا

5 فلما أخبر ملك مصر ان الشعب قد هرب تغيّر قلب فرعون وعبيده على الشعب. فقالوا ماذا فعلنا حتى اطلقنا اسرائيل من خدمتنا.

6 فشدّ مركبته واخذ قومه معه.

7 واخذ ست مئة مركبة منتخبة وسائر مركبات مصر وجنودا مركبيّة على جميعها.

8 وشدّد الرب قلب فرعون ملك مصر حتى سعى وراء بني اسرائيل وبنو اسرائيل خارجون بيد رفيعة.

9 فسعى المصريون وراءهم وادركوهم. جميع خيل مركبات فرعون وفرسانه وجيشه وهم نازلون عند البحر عند فم الحيروث امام بعل صفون

10 فلما اقترب فرعون رفع بنو اسرائيل عيونهم واذ المصريون راحلون وراءهم. ففزعوا جدا وصرخ بنو اسرائيل الى الرب.

11 وقالوا لموسى هل لانه ليست قبور في مصر اخذتنا لنموت في البرية. ماذا صنعت بنا حتى اخرجتنا من مصر.

12 أليس هذا هو الكلام الذي كلمناك به في مصر قائلين كف عنا فنخدم المصريين. لانه خير لنا ان نخدم المصريين من ان نموت في البرية.

13 فقال موسى للشعب لا تخافوا. قفوا وانظروا خلاص الرب الذي يصنعه لكم اليوم. فانه كما رأيتم المصريين اليوم لا تعودون ترونهم ايضا الى الابد.

14 الرب يقاتل عنكم وانتم تصمتون

15 فقال الرب لموسى مالك تصرخ اليّ. قل لبني اسرائيل ان يرحلوا.

16 وارفع انت عصاك ومدّ يدك على البحر وشقّه. فيدخل بنو اسرائيل في وسط البحر على اليابسة.

17 وها انا اشدد قلوب المصريين حتى يدخلوا وراءهم. فاتمجد بفرعون وكل جيشه بمركباته وفرسانه.

18 فيعرف المصريون اني انا الرب حين اتمجد بفرعون ومركباته وفرسانه.

19 فانتقل ملاك الله السائر امام عسكر اسرائيل وسار وراءهم. وانتقل عمود السحاب من امامهم ووقف وراءهم.

20 فدخل بين عسكر المصريين وعسكر اسرائيل وصار السحاب والظلام واضاء الليل. فلم يقترب هذا الى ذاك كل الليل

21 ومدّ موسى يده على البحر. فأجرى الرب البحر بريح شرقية شديدة كل الليل وجعل البحر يابسة وانشقّ الماء.

22 فدخل بنو اسرائيل في وسط البحر على اليابسة والماء سور لهم عن يمينهم وعن يسارهم.

23 وتبعهم المصريون ودخلوا وراءهم. جميع خيل فرعون ومركباته وفرسانه الى وسط البحر.

24 وكان في هزيع الصبح ان الرب اشرف على عسكر المصريين في عمود النار والسحاب وأزعج عسكر المصريين.

25 وخلع بكر مركباتهم حتى ساقوها بثقلة. فقال المصريون نهرب من اسرائيل. لان الرب يقاتل المصريين عنهم

26 فقال الرب لموسى مدّ يدك على البحر ليرجع الماء على المصريين على مركباتهم وفرسانهم.

27 فمدّ موسى يده على البحر فرجع البحر عند اقبال الصبح الى حاله الدائمة والمصريون هاربون الى لقائه. فدفع الرب المصريين في وسط البحر.

28 فرجع الماء وغطى مركبات وفرسان جميع جيش فرعون الذي دخل ورائهم في البحر. لم يبق منهم ولا واحد.

29 واما بنو اسرائيل فمشوا على اليابسة في وسط البحر والماء سور لهم عن يمينهم وعن يسارهم

30 فخلّص الرب في ذلك اليوم اسرائيل من يد المصريين. ونظر اسرائيل المصريين امواتا على شاطئ البحر.

31 ورأى اسرائيل الفعل العظيم الذي صنعه الرب بالمصريين. فخاف الشعب الرب وآمنوا بالرب وبعبده موسى

Arcana Coelestia#4236

4236. 'And Jacob said [when he saw them], This is God's camp' means heaven. 'God's camp' means heaven, for the reason that 'an army' means truths and goods, 3448, and goods and truths are arranged by the Lord in conformity with heavenly order. Hence the arrangement of them like armies when arrayed is meant by 'an encampment', and the heavenly order itself, which is heaven, by 'a camp'. This camp or order is such that it cannot in any way be broken apart by hell, despite the constant effort from hell to break it apart. This also is why this order, which is heaven, is referred to as 'a camp', and why truths and goods, that is, angels, who are arranged in conformity with that order are called 'armies'. From all this it is now evident how 'God's camp' comes to mean heaven. It is that actual order, and so heaven itself, which was represented by the encampments of the children of Israel in the wilderness; and their actual dwelling together there according to their tribes was referred to as 'the camp'. The Tabernacle pitched in the middle and around which they encamped represented the Lord Himself. Regarding the children of Israel's encampment in this manner, see Numbers 1:1-end, and 33:2-56; and regarding their encampment around the Tabernacle according to their tribes - Judah, Issachar, and Zebulun to the east; Reuben, Simeon, and Gad to the south; Ephraim, Manasseh, and Benjamin to the west; Dan, Asher, and Naphtali to the north; and the Levites in the middle next to the Tabernacle - Numbers 2:2 and following verses.

[2] The tribes' means all goods and truths in their entirety, see 3858, 3862, 3926, 3939, 4060. Consequently when Balaam saw Israel dwelling according to tribes and the Spirit of God came upon him, he delivered the utterance,

How good your tabernacles are, O Jacob; your dwelling-places, O Israel! They are like valleys that are planted, like gardens beside a river. Numbers 24:2-3, 5-6.

It is quite plain that this prophecy did not mean the people named Jacob and Israel but that it was the Lord's heaven which was represented. This also is why in other places in the Word their ordered settlements in the wilderness, or encampments according to tribes, are called camps, and in those places 'a camp' in the internal sense means heavenly order and 'encampment' an arrangement in conformity with that order, that is to say, with the order in which goods and truths exist in heaven - as in Leviticus 4:12; 8:17; 13:46; 14:8; 16:26, 28; 24:14, 23; Numbers 3; 4:4 and following verses; 5:2-4; Numbers 9:17-end; 10:1-10, 28; 11:31-32; 12:14-15; 31:19-24; Deuteronomy 23:9-14.

[3] The meaning of 'God's camp' as heaven may also be seen in Joel,

The earth quaked before Him, the heavens trembled. The sun and the moon were darkened, and the stars gathered back their shining; and Jehovah gave voice before His army, for His camp is exceedingly many; for that which executes His word is uncountable. Joel 2:10-11.

In Zechariah,

I will encamp by My house with an army set against anyone passing through and against anyone leaving, so that the oppressor passes over them no more. Zechariah 9:8.

In John,

Gog and Magog went up over the breadth 1 of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the saints, and the beloved city; but fire came down 2 from God and consumed them. Revelation 20:9.

'Gog and Magog' stands for people whose worship is external separated from internal - worship that has become idolatrous, 1151. 'The breadth of the earth' stands for truth possessed by the Church - 'breadth', or a plain, meaning truth that constitutes doctrinal teaching, 2450, and 'earth' the Church, 556, 662, 1066, 1067, 1850, 2117, 2118, 3355. 'The camp of the saints' stands for heaven or the Lord's kingdom on earth, which is the Church.

[4] Since most things in the Word also have a contrary sense, so too does the word 'camp'. In this case it means evils and falsities, and consequently hell, as in David,

Though the evil pitch camp against me, my heart will not fear. Psalms 27:3.

In the same author,

God has scattered the bones of those encamping against you; 3 you have put them to shame, for God has rejected them. Psalms 53:5.

The camp of Asshur in which the angel of Jehovah smote a hundred and eighty-five thousand, Isaiah 37:36, does not have any other meaning, nor likewise does the camp of the Egyptians, Exodus 14:19-20.

脚注:

1. literally, the plain

2. The Latin means went up, but the Greek means came down, which Swedenborg has in another place where he quotes this verse.

3. The Latin means me, but the Hebrew means you.

Genesis第49章:3-27

学习

      

3 "Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength; excelling in dignity, and excelling in power.

4 Boiling over as water, you shall not excel; because you went up to your father's bed, then defiled it. He went up to my couch.

5 "Simeon and Levi are brothers. Their swords are weapons of violence.

6 My soul, don't come into their council. My glory, don't be united to their assembly; for in their anger they killed men. In their self-will they hamstrung cattle.

7 Cursed be their anger, for it was fierce; and their wrath, for it was cruel. I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.

8 "Judah, your brothers will praise you. Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies. Your father's sons will bow down before you.

9 Judah is a lion's cub. From the prey, my son, you have gone up. He stooped down, he crouched as a lion, as a lioness. Who will rouse him up?

10 The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs. To him will the obedience of the peoples be.

11 Binding his foal to the vine, his donkey's colt to the choice vine; he has washed his garments in wine, his robes in the blood of grapes.

12 His eyes will be red with wine, his teeth white with milk.

13 "Zebulun will dwell at the haven of the sea. He will be for a haven of ships. His border will be on Sidon.

14 "Issachar is a strong donkey, lying down between the saddlebags.

15 He saw a resting place, that it was good, the land, that it was pleasant. He bows his shoulder to the burden, and becomes a servant doing forced labor.

16 "Dan will judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.

17 Dan will be a serpent in the way, an adder in the path, That bites the horse's heels, so that his rider falls backward.

18 I have waited for your salvation, Yahweh.

19 "A troop will press on Gad, but he will press on their heel.

20 "Asher's food will be rich. He will yield royal dainties.

21 "Naphtali is a doe set free, who bears beautiful fawns.

22 "Joseph is a fruitful vine, a fruitful vine by a spring. His branches run over the wall.

23 The archers have severely grieved him, shot at him, and persecute him:

24 But his bow remained strong. The arms of his hands were made strong, by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, (from there is the shepherd, the stone of Israel),

25 even by the God of your father, who will help you; by the Almighty, who will bless you, with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lies below, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb.

26 The blessings of your father have prevailed above the blessings of your ancestors, above the boundaries of the ancient hills. They will be on the head of Joseph, on the crown of the head of him who is separated from his brothers.

27 "Benjamin is a ravenous wolf. In the morning he will devour the prey. At evening he will divide the spoil."
