以西結書第18章

学习

   

1 耶和華的又臨到我說:

2 你們在以色列地怎麼用這俗語說父親吃了酸葡萄,兒子酸倒了呢?

3 耶和華:我指著我的永生起誓,你們在以色列中,必不再有用這俗語的因由。

4 看哪,世人都是屬我的;為父的怎樣屬我,為子的也照樣屬我;犯罪的,他必亡。

5 若是公,且行正直與合理的事:

6 未曾在吃過偶像之物,未曾仰望以色列家的偶像,未曾玷污鄰舍的妻,未曾在婦人的經期內親近他,

7 未曾虧負,乃將欠債之的當頭還他;未曾搶奪的物件,卻將食物飢餓的吃,將衣服赤身的穿;

8 未曾向借錢的弟兄取利,也未曾向借糧的弟兄多要,縮不作罪孽,在兩之間,按至理判斷

9 遵行我的律例,謹守我的典章,按誠實行事─這人是公的,必定存活。這是耶和華的。

10 他若生兒子,作強盜,是流人血的,不行以上所說之善,反行其中之惡,乃在山上吃過祭偶像之物,並玷污鄰舍的妻,

11 a

12 虧負困苦和窮乏的人,搶奪人的物,未曾將當頭還給人,仰望偶像,並行可憎的事,

13 向借錢的弟兄取利,向借糧的弟兄多要─這人豈能存活呢?他必不能存活。他行這一切可憎的事,必要亡,他的罪(原文是血)必歸到他身上。

14 他若生一個兒子,見父親所犯的一切便懼怕(有古卷:思量),不照樣去做;

15 未曾在吃過偶像之物,未曾仰望以色列家的偶像,未曾玷污鄰舍的妻,

16 未曾虧負,未曾取的當頭,未曾搶奪的物件,卻將食物飢餓的吃,將衣服赤身的穿,

17 不害貧窮人,未曾向借錢的弟兄取利,也未曾向借糧的弟兄多要;他順從我的典章,遵行我的律例,就不因父親的罪孽亡,定要存活。

18 至於他父親;因為欺人太甚,搶奪弟兄,在本國的民中行不善,他必因自己的罪孽亡。

19 你們還兒子為何不擔當父親的罪孽呢?兒子行正直與合理的事,謹守遵行我的一切律例,他必定存活。

20 惟有犯罪的,他必亡。兒子必不擔當父親的罪孽,父親也不擔當兒子的罪孽。人的善果必歸自己,惡人的惡報也必歸自己。

21 惡人若回頭離開所做的一切惡,謹守我一切的律例,行正直與合理的事,他必定存活,不致亡。

22 他所犯的一切罪過都不被記念,因所行的,他必存活。

23 耶和華:惡人亡,豈是我喜悅的麼?不是喜悅他回頭離開所行的道存活麼?

24 人若行而作孽,照著惡人所行一切可憎的事而行,他豈能存活麼?他所行的一切都不被記念;他必因所犯的、所行的惡亡。

25 你們還:主的道不公平!以色列家啊,你們當,我的道豈不公平麼?你們的道豈不是不公平麼?

26 人若行而作罪孽亡,他是因所作的罪孽亡。

27 再者,惡人若回頭離開所行的惡,行正直與合理的事,他必將性命活了。

28 因為他思量,回頭離開所犯的一切罪過,必定存活,不致亡。

29 以色列家還:主的道不公平!以色列家啊,我的道豈不公平麼?你們的道豈不是不公平麼?

30 所以耶和華以色列家啊,我必按你們各所行的審判你們。你們當回頭離開所犯的一切罪過。這樣,罪孽必不使你們敗亡。

31 你們要將所犯的一切罪過盡行拋棄,自做一個新和新靈。以色列家啊,你們何必亡呢?

32 耶和華:我不喜悅那人之,所以你們當回頭而存活。

Apocalypse Explained#945

学习本章节

  
/1232  
  

945. Wherefore all nations shall come and worship before thee. That this signifies that all who are in the good of love, and in the truths therefrom, shall acknowledge His Divine, is evident from the signification of nations, as denoting those who are in the good of love, and in the truths therefrom (concerning which see (n. 175, 331, 625); and from the signification of worshipping, as denoting to acknowledge in heart, and to worship; see above (n. 795, 805, 821). That by all nations such persons only are meant is evident; for there are also those who will not acknowledge the Lord.

Continuation:-

When a man is in that state, then he is raised up from his proprium. For a man is in his proprium when he is only in the natural external, but he is raised up from the proprium when he is in the spiritual internal. This elevation is not perceived by him, except from this, that he does not think evils, and that he turns away from thinking them, and that he is delighted with truths, and also with good uses. Such a man, however, if he advances further into that state, perceives influx in a kind of thought; but still he is not withheld from thinking and willing as of himself. For this the Lord wills for the sake of his reformation; but still he ought to acknowledge that nothing of good or of the truth therefrom is from himself, but from the Lord.

13 But the house of Israel rebelled against me in the wilderness: they didn't walk in my statutes, and they rejected my ordinances, which if a man keep, he shall live in them; and my Sabbaths they greatly profaned. Then I said I would pour out my wrath on them in the wilderness, to consume them.
