出埃及记第21章

学习

   

1 你在百姓面前所要立的典章是这样:

2 你若买希伯来人作奴仆,他必服事你年;第七年他可以自由,白白的出去。

3 他若孤身就可以孤身去;他若有妻,他的妻就可以同他出去。

4 人若妻子妻子他生了儿子女儿妻子和儿女要归人,他要独自出去。

5 倘或奴仆明:我我的人和我的妻子儿女,不愿意自由出去。

6 他的人就要带他到审判官(审判官或作:;下同)那里,又要带他到前,靠框,用锥子穿他的耳朵,他就永远服事人。

7 女儿作婢女,婢女不可像仆那样出去。

8 人选定他归自己,若不喜欢他,就要许他赎身;人既然用诡诈待他,就没有权柄给外邦人。

9 主人若选定他给自己的儿子,就当待他如同女儿

10 若另娶一个,那女子的吃食、衣服,并好合的事,仍不可减少。

11 若不向他行这样,他就可以不用赎,白白的出去。

12 以致打的,必要把他治

13 人若不是埋伏着杀人,乃是交在他中,我就设下一个地方,他可以往那里逃跑

14 若任意用诡计杀了他的邻舍,就是逃到我的那里,也当捉去把他治

15 打父母的,必要把他治

16 拐带口,或是把了,或是留在他下,必要把他治

17 咒骂父母的,必要把他治

18 若彼此相争,这个用石头或是拳头打那个,尚且不至於,不过躺卧在

19 若再能起来扶杖而出,那打他的可算无罪;但要将他耽误的工夫用钱赔补,并要将他全然医好。

20 若用棍子打奴仆或婢女,立时在他的,他必要受刑。

21 若过一两才死,就可以不受刑,因为是用买的。

22 人若彼此争斗,伤害有孕的妇人,甚至坠胎,随後却无别害,那伤害他的,总要按妇人的丈夫所要的,照审判官所断的,受罚。

23 若有别害,就要以命偿命,

24 以眼还眼,以,以,以

25 以烙还烙,以伤还伤,以打还打。

26 若打坏了他奴仆或是婢女的一只眼,就要因他的眼放他去得以自由。

27 若打掉了他奴仆或是婢女的一个,就要因他的放他去得以自由。

28 牛若触男人或是女人,总要用石头打那牛,却不可他的;牛的主可算无罪。

29 倘若那牛素来是触的,有报告了牛主,他竟不把牛拴着,以致把男人或是女人,就要用石头打那牛,牛主也必治

30 若罚他赎命的价银,他必照所罚的赎他的命。

31 牛无论触了人的儿子或是女儿,必照这例办理。

32 牛若触了奴仆或是婢女,必将三十舍客勒他们的人,也要用石头把牛打死。

33 若敞着井口,或井不遮盖,有牛或掉在里头,

34 井主要拿赔还本主人,牲畜要归自己。

35 的牛若伤了那的牛,以至於,他们要了活牛,平分价值,也要平分牛。

36 人若知道这牛素来是触人的,主人竟不把牛拴着,他必要以牛还牛,牛要归自己。

9009. 'And one who did not lie in wait' means when it was not contemplated beforehand by the will. This is clear from the meaning of 'lying in wait' as doing what has been thought up and so contemplated beforehand; for the ill that one lying in wait is going to do is contemplated in his mind beforehand. And since such ill done by him is contemplated beforehand it also has its origin in the will, for it comes forth from there. There are evils which come forth from a person's will but are not contemplated beforehand, and there those which come forth from his will and are contemplated beforehand. Those from the will and contemplated beforehand are far worse than those uncontemplated beforehand. For the person sees that they are evils and is therefore able to desist from them, but has no wish to; and by failing to do so he establishes them firmly within himself. And firmly established evils take on a character that makes it almost impossible for them to be rooted out afterwards. For at this time he summons spirits from hell, who after that rarely depart.

[2] Evils that come forth from one part of the mind and not at the same time from the other, such as those from the understanding part and not at the same time from the will part, do not take root and become the person's own. That alone takes root and becomes his own which passes from the understanding part into the will part, or what amounts to the same thing, from thought belonging to the understanding into affection belonging to the will, and from there into action. Things that enter the will are those which are said to enter the heart.

[3] Evils however which come forth solely from the will, thus not from prior thought about them, are those such as a person is prone to owing to heredity or owing to some previous activity resulting from hereditary inclinations. These evils are not ascribed to the person unless he has established them firmly in the understanding part of his mind, 966, 2308, 8806. But when they have been firmly established there they have been inscribed on the person, becoming properly his own; then they are attributable to him. But those evils cannot become firmly established with a person in the understanding part of his mind until he reaches adult life, that is to say, when he starts to think for himself and be wise. Till then he trusts not in himself but in teachers and parents.

All this shows what the meaning is of 'one who did not lie in wait', namely when it was not contemplated beforehand by the will.
