以西结书第37章

学习

   

1 耶和华的灵(原文是)降在我身上。耶和华藉他的灵带我出去,将我放在平原中;这平原遍满骸

2 他使我从骸骨的四围经过,谁知在平原的骸骨甚多,而且极其枯乾。

3 他对我:人子啊,这些骸能复活麽?我耶和华啊,你是知道的。

4 他又对我:你向这些骸发预言:枯乾的骸啊,要耶和华的

5 耶和华对这些骸如此:我必使气息进入你们里面,你们就要活了。

6 我必你们加上,使你们长,又将遮蔽你们,使气息进入你们里面,你们就要活了;你们便知道我是耶和华

7 於是,我遵命说预言。正说预言的时候,不料,有响声,有地震;互相联络。

8 我观,见骸骨上有,也长了,又有遮蔽其上,只是还没有气息。

9 对我:人子啊,你要发预言,向发预言,耶和华如此:气息啊,要从方(原文是)而,吹在这些被杀的人身上,使他们活了。

10 於是我遵命说预言,气息就进入骸骨,骸骨便活了,并且站起,成为极军队

11 主对我:人子啊,这些骸就是以色列全家。他们:我们的骨头枯乾了,我们的指望失去了,我们灭绝净尽了。

12 所以你要发预言对他们耶和华如此:我的民哪,我必开你们的坟墓,使你们从坟墓中出,领你们进入以色列地。

13 我的民哪,我开你们的坟墓,使你们从坟墓中出来,你们就知道我是耶和华

14 我必将我的灵放在你们里面,你们就要活了。我将你们安置在本地,你们就知道我─耶和华如此,也如此成就了。这是耶和华的。

15 耶和华的又临到我说:

16 人子啊,你要取杖,在其上犹大和他的同伴以色列人;又取杖,在其上为约瑟,就是为以法莲,又为他的同伴以色列全家。

17 你要使这两根杖接连为,在你中成为根。

18 你本国的子民问你:这是甚麽意思?你不指示我们麽?

19 你就对他们耶和华如此:我要将约瑟和他同伴以色列支派的杖,就是那在以法莲中的,与犹大的杖同接连为,在我中成为根。

20 你所的那两根杖要在他们眼前拿在中,

21 要对他们耶和华如此:我要将以色列人从他们所到的各国收取,又从四围聚集他们,引导他们归回本地。

22 我要使他们在那,在以色列上成为国,有王作他们众民的王。他们不再为国,决不再分为国;

23 也不再因偶像和可憎的物,并一切的罪过玷污自己。我却要他们出离一切的处,就是他们犯罪的地方;我要洁净他们,如此,他们要作我的子民,我要作他们的

24 我的仆人大卫必作他们的王;众民必归个牧人。他们必顺从我的典章,谨守遵行我的律例。

25 他们必在我赐仆人雅各上,就是你们列祖所。他们和他们的子孙,并子孙的子孙,都永远在那里。我的仆人大卫必作他们的王,直到永远

26 并且我要与他们立平安的约,作为永约。我也要将他们安置在本地,使他们的人数增多,又在他们中间设立我的圣所,直到永远

27 我的居所必在他们中间;我要作他们的,他们要作我的子民。

28 我的所在以色列人中间直到永远外邦人就必知道我是叫以色列成为耶和华

14. 12. The Word was with God, and God was the Word; and all things were made by Him. In Him was life, and the life was the light of men; He was the true Light which lighteth every man: and the Word became flesh (John 1:1-14).

This was He who was before me, for He was prior to me. Of His fullness we have all received (John 1:15-16, 27, 30).

No one hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son of God, who is in the bosom of the Father, hath made Him manifest (John 1:18).

Whose shoe's latchet I am not worthy to unloose (John 1:27).

He that hath the bride is the bridegroom. Spoken concerning Christ (John 3:29).

He came from heaven and is therefore above all (John 3:31). Spoken concerning Christ.

The Father gave not the Spirit by measure unto Him; the Father gave all things into His hands (John 3:34-35).

Jesus says that He is equal to the Father; in various places (John 5:18-23). That He quickeneth, and that He hath life in Himself, etc. (John 5:21, 26-27).

The bread of God is He which cometh down from heaven, and giveth life unto the world (John 6:33). He is the bread of life (John 6:35, 50-51).

Not that any one has seen the Father, save He who is with the Father, He hath seen the Father (John 6:46).

Jesus said I am the light of the world; he that followeth Me shall have the light of life (John 8:12; 9:5, 39; 12:35-36, 46).

Jesus said, Before Abraham was, I am (John 8:56, 58). He came into the world that the blind might see, and that they which see might become blind (John 9:39).

Jesus said, I and the Father are one (John 10:30).

The Father and He are one (John 10:30).

He is in the Father and the Father in Him (John 14:10-11; 10:38; Philippians 1-4; 1 Corinthians 1:3).

God and Christ [mentioned] together; that I and the Father will come to him (John 14:23). I and the Father are one (John 10:30).

He that hateth Me hateth My Father (John 15:23-24). All things that the Father hath are Mine (John 16:15). Jesus goes away to the Father (John 16:5-7, 16-17, 29), which is to be united to Him.

They should pray in His name, I say not that I will pray the Father for you; the Father Himself loveth you because ye have loved Me (John 16:26-28). He often says, In His name.

I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world; again I leave the world and go to the Father (John 16:28-31). Jesus said, the Father had given Him power over all flesh (John 17:2).

Father glorify Thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify Thee. Now therefore do Thou, O Father, glorify Me with Thine own self with the glory which I had with Thee before the world was (John 17:1, 5).

N. B. Arcanum. By "to glorify" is meant to unite the Divine Truth with the Divine Good in the Human. The Lord in the Father from eternity was the Divine Good and thence the Divine Truth, wherefore when He descended He was the Divine Truth from the Divine Good; a reciprocal union, or that of the Divine Truth with the Divine Good, was effected by the Lord in the Human while He was in the world: and it was accomplished successively, especially by redemption and by the fact that He did the will of the Father, and then fully by the last temptation, which was that of the cross, for temptation unites. Then was accomplished the reciprocal union of the Divine Truth with the Divine Good, thus the Father and Son are one, thus one Person like soul and body. All Mine are Thine and Thine are Mine, but I am glorified in them (John 17:10).

I sanctify Myself, that they also may be sanctified in the truth (John 17:19).

That they may be one in Jesus as the Father is in Him (John 17:21-23).

Thomas said, my Lord and my God (John 20:28).
