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

学习本章节

  
/10837  
  

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.

Joshua第13章

学习

   

1 Now Joshua was old and well advanced in years. Yahweh said to him, "You are old and advanced in years, and there remains yet very much land to be possessed.

2 "This is the land that still remains: all the regions of the Philistines, and all the Geshurites;

3 from the Shihor, which is before Egypt, even to the border of Ekron northward, which is counted as Canaanite; the five lords of the Philistines; the Gazites, and the Ashdodites, the Ashkelonites, the Gittites, and the Ekronites; also the Avvim,

4 on the south; all the land of the Canaanites, and Mearah that belongs to the Sidonians, to Aphek, to the border of the Amorites;

5 and the land of the Gebalites, and all Lebanon, toward the sunrise, from Baal Gad under Mount Hermon to the entrance of Hamath;

6 all the inhabitants of the hill country from Lebanon to Misrephoth Maim, even all the Sidonians; them will I drive out from before the children of Israel: only allocate it to Israel for an inheritance, as I have commanded you.

7 Now therefore divide this land for an inheritance to the nine tribes and the half-tribe of Manasseh."

8 With him the Reubenites and the Gadites received their inheritance, which Moses gave them, beyond the Jordan eastward, even as Moses the servant of Yahweh gave them:

9 from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain of Medeba to Dibon;

10 and all the cities of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, to the border of the children of Ammon;

11 and Gilead, and the border of the Geshurites and Maacathites, and all Mount Hermon, and all Bashan to Salecah;

12 all the kingdom of Og in Bashan, who reigned in Ashtaroth and in Edrei (the same was left of the remnant of the Rephaim); for Moses attacked these, and drove them out.

13 Nevertheless the children of Israel didn't drive out the Geshurites, nor the Maacathites: but Geshur and Maacath dwell in the midst of Israel to this day.

14 Only he gave no inheritance to the tribe of Levi. The offerings of Yahweh, the God of Israel, made by fire are his inheritance, as he spoke to him.

15 Moses gave to the tribe of the children of Reuben according to their families.

16 Their border was from Aroer, that is on the edge of the valley of the Arnon, and the city that is in the middle of the valley, and all the plain by Medeba;

17 Heshbon, and all its cities that are in the plain; Dibon, Bamoth Baal, Beth Baal Meon,

18 Jahaz, Kedemoth, Mephaath,

19 Kiriathaim, Sibmah, Zereth Shahar in the mount of the valley,

20 Beth Peor, the slopes of Pisgah, Beth Jeshimoth,

21 all the cities of the plain, and all the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon, whom Moses struck with the chiefs of Midian, Evi, Rekem, Zur, Hur, and Reba, the princes of Sihon, who lived in the land.

22 The children of Israel alse killed Balaam also the son of Beor, the soothsayer, with the sword, among the rest of their slain.

23 The border of the children of Reuben was the bank of the Jordan. This was the inheritance of the children of Reuben according to their families, the cities and its villages.

24 Moses gave to the tribe of Gad, to the children of Gad, according to their families.

25 Their border was Jazer, and all the cities of Gilead, and half the land of the children of Ammon, to Aroer that is before Rabbah;

26 and from Heshbon to Ramath Mizpeh, and Betonim; and from Mahanaim to the border of Debir;

27 and in the valley, Beth Haram, Beth Nimrah, Succoth, and Zaphon, the rest of the kingdom of Sihon king of Heshbon, the Jordan's bank, to the uttermost part of the sea of Chinnereth beyond the Jordan eastward.

28 This is the inheritance of the children of Gad according to their families, the cities and its villages.

29 Moses gave an inheritance to the half-tribe of Manasseh. It was for the half-tribe of the children of Manasseh according to their families.

30 Their border was from Mahanaim, all Bashan, all the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair, which are in Bashan, sixty cities.

31 Half Gilead, Ashtaroth, and Edrei, the cities of the kingdom of Og in Bashan, were for the children of Machir the son of Manasseh, even for the half of the children of Machir according to their families.

32 These are the inheritances which Moses distributed in the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan at Jericho, eastward.

33 But to the tribe of Levi Moses gave no inheritance. Yahweh, the God of Israel, is their inheritance, as he spoke to them.
