1 Řekl pak byl Hospodin Mojžíšovi: Ještě ránu jednu uvedu na Faraona a na Egypt, potom propustí vás odsud; propustí docela, anobrž vypudí vás odsud.

2 Mluv nyní v uši lidu, ať vypůjčí jeden každý od bližního svého, a každá od bližní své klínotů stříbrných a klínotů zlatých.

3 A dal Hospodin milost lidu před očima Egyptských. (Sám také Mojžíš veliký byl velmi v zemi Egyptské, před očima služebníků Faraonových i před očima lidu.)

4 I řekl Mojžíš: Takto praví Hospodin: O půlnoci já půjdu prostředkem Egypta.

5 A pomře všecko prvorozené v zemi Egyptské, od prvorozeného Faraonova, jenž seděti měl na stolici jeho, až do prvorozeného děvky, kteráž jest při žernovu, i všecko prvorozené hovad.

6 I bude křik veliký po vší zemi Egyptské, jakéhož nebylo prvé, a jakéhož nikdy nebude více.

7 U synů pak Izraelských nikdež nehne pes jazykem svým, ovšem pak ani člověk ani hovado, abyste věděli, že rozdíl učinil Hospodin mezi Egyptskými a Izraelskými.

8 I sstoupí všickni tito služebníci tvoji ke mně, a skláněti mi se budou, řkouce: Vyjdi, ty i všecken lid, kterýž jest pod správou tvou; a potom vyjdu. A vyšel od Faraona s velikým hněvem.

9 I řekl Hospodin Mojžíšovi: Neposlechneť vás Farao, abych rozmnožil zázraky své v zemi Egyptské.

10 Ale Mojžíš a Aron činili všecky ty zázraky před Faraonem; Hospodin pak zatvrdil srdce Faraonovo, tak že nepropustil synů Izraelských z země své.

545. THE LORD CASTS NO ONE INTO HELL; THE SPIRIT CASTS HIMSELF DOWN.

An opinion has prevailed with some that God turns away His face from man, casts man away from Himself, and casts him into hell, and is angry with him on account of his evil; and some believe also that God punishes man and does evil to him. In this opinion they establish themselves by the sense of the letter of the Word, where such things are declared, not knowing that the spiritual sense of the Word, by which the sense of the letter is made clear, is wholly different; and consequently that the genuine doctrine of the church, which is from the spiritual sense of the Word, teaches otherwise, namely, that God never turns away His face from man, and never casts man away from Himself, that He casts no one into hell and is angry with no one. 1 Everyone, moreover, whose mind is enlightened perceives this to be true when he reads the Word, from the simple truth that God is good itself, love itself, and mercy itself; and that good itself cannot do evil to any one, and love itself and mercy itself can not cast man away from itself, because this is contrary to the very essence of mercy and love, thus contrary to the Divine Itself. Therefore those who think from an enlightened mind clearly perceive, when they read the Word, that God never turns Himself away from man; and as He never turns Himself away from him He deals with him from goodness, love, and mercy, that is, wills good to him, loves him, and is merciful to him. And from this they see that the sense of the letter of the Word, in which such things are declared, has stored up within itself a spiritual sense, and that these expressions that are used in the sense of the letter in accommodation to man's apprehension and according to his first and general ideas are to be explained in accordance with the spiritual sense.

脚注:

1. [Swedenborg's footnote] In the Word anger and wrath are attributed to the Lord, but they are in man, and it is so expressed because such is the appearance to man when he is punished and damned (Arcana Coelestia 798, 5798, 6997, 8284, 8483, 8875, 9306, 10431).

Evil also is attributed to the Lord, although nothing but good is from Him (2447, 6071, 6991, 6997, 7533, 7632, 7679, 7926, 8227-8228, 8632, 9306).

Why it is so expressed in the Word (6071, 6991, 6997, 7632, 7643, 7679, 7710, 7926, 8282, 9010, 9128).

The Lord is pure mercy and clemency (6997, 8875).
