1 Mluvil pak Hospodin k Mojžíšovi a k Aronovi v zemi Egyptské, řka:

2 Tento měsíc počátek měsíců vám bude; první vám bude mezi měsíci ročními.

3 Mluvte ke všemu shromáždění Izraelskému, řkouce: Desátého dne měsíce tohoto vezmete sobě jeden každý beránka po čeledech, beránka na každý dům.

4 Byl-li by pak dům tak malý, že by s beránka býti nemohl, přivezme souseda svého, kterýž jest blízký domu jeho, podlé počtu duší; jeden každý počte tolik osob, kolikž by jich snísti mohlo beránka.

5 Beránka bez vady, samce ročního míti budete, kteréhož z ovcí aneb z koz vezmete.

6 A chovati ho budete až do čtrnáctého dne měsíce tohoto; a zabije ho všecko množství shromáždění Izraelského k večerou.

7 A vezmouce krve, pomaží obou veřejí a nade dveřmi u domů, v nichž jej jísti budou.

8 I budou jísti noci té maso pečené ohněm, s chleby přesnými; s bylinami hořkými jísti jej budou.

9 Nebudete jísti z něho nic surového ani v vodě vařeného, ale pečené ohněm, s hlavou jeho i s nohami a droby.

10 Nezanecháte z něho ničehož do jitra; pakli by co pozůstalo z něho až do jitra, ohněm spálíte.

11 Takto jej pak jísti budete: Bedra svá přepásaná míti budete, obuv svou na nohách svých a hůl svou v ruce své, a jísti budete s chvátáním; nebo Jití jest Hospodinovo.

12 V tu noc zajisté půjdu po zemi Egyptské, a budu bíti všecko prvorozené v zemi Egyptské, od člověka až do hovada, a nade všemi bohy Egyptskými učiním soud: Já Hospodin.

13 Krev pak ta na domích, v nichž budete, budeť vám na znamení; a když uzřím Krev, pominu vás, a nebude mezi vámi rána zahubující, když bíti budu prvorozené v zemi Egyptské.

14 A budeť vám den ten na památku, a slaviti jej budete slavný Hospodinu po rodech svých; právem věčným slaviti jej budete.

15 Za sedm dní přesné chleby jísti budete, a hned prvního dne vyprázdníte kvas z domů vašich; nebo kdožkoli jedl by co kvašeného od prvního až do sedmého dne, vyhlazena bude duše ta z Izraele.

16 A v den první budeť shromáždění svaté; dne také sedmého shromáždění svaté míti budete. Žádného díla nebude děláno v nich; toliko čehož se užívá k jídlu od každého, to samo připraveno bude od vás.

17 A ostříhati budete přesnic, nebo v ten den vyvedl jsem vojska vaše z země Egyptské; protož zachovávati budete den ten po rodech svých právem věčným.

18 Prvního měsíce, čtrnáctého dne téhož měsíce, u večer jísti budete chleby přesné, až do dne jedenmecítmého téhož měsíce k večerou.

19 Za sedm dní nebude nalezeno kvasu v domích vašich; nebo kdo by koli jedl něco kvašeného, vyhlazena bude duše ta z shromáždění Izraelského, tak příchozí jako zrozený v zemi.

20 Nic kvašeného jísti nebudete, ale ve všech příbytcích vašich jísti budete chleby přesné.

21 Tedy svolal Mojžíš všecky starší Izraelské, a řekl jim: Vybeřte a vezměte sobě beránka po čeledech svých, a zabíte Fáze.

22 Vezmete také svazček yzopu, a omočíte v krvi, kteráž bude v medenici, a pomažete nade dveřmi a na obou veřejích tou krví, kteráž bude v nádobě; z vás pak žádný nevycházej ze dveří domu svého až do jitra.

23 Neboť půjde Hospodin, aby bil Egypt, a kde uzří krev nade dveřmi a na obou veřejích, přeskočí Hospodin ty dvéře, aniž dopustí zhoubci vjíti do domů vašich k hubení.

24 Protož ostříhati budete věci této za ustanovení tobě i synům tvým až na věky.

25 A když vejdete do země, kterouž dá Hospodin vám, jakž zaslíbil, zachovávati budete službu tuto.

26 Když by pak řekli vám synové vaši: Jaká jest to služba vaše?

27 Tedy díte: Obět Fáze toto jest Hospodinu, kterýž pominul domů synů Izraelských v Egyptě, když bil Egypt, domy pak naše vysvobodil. A lid sklonivše hlavy, poklonu učinili.

28 A rozšedše se synové Izraelští, učinili, jakž byl Hospodin přikázal Mojžíšovi a Aronovi; tak a nejinak učinili.

29 Stalo se pak o půlnoci, pobil Hospodin všecko prvorozené v zemi Egyptské, od prvorozeného Faraonova, kterýž seděti měl na stolici jeho, až do prvorozeného vězně, kterýž byl v žaláři, i všecko prvorozené hovad.

30 Tedy vstal Farao noci té, a všickni služebníci jeho i všickni Egyptští, a vzešel křik veliký v Egyptě; nebo žádného nebylo domu, v němž by nebylo něčeho mrtvého.

31 A povolav Mojžíše a Arona v noci, řekl: Vstaňte, vyjděte z prostředku lidu mého, i vy i synové Izraelští, a odejdouce, služte Hospodinu, jakž jste mluvili.

32 Ovce také vaše i voly vaše vezměte, jakž jste žádali, a jděte; a dejte mi také požehnání.

33 I nutkali Egyptští lid, aby co nejrychleji vyšli z země; nebo pravili: Všickni již teď zemřeme.

34 Protož vzal lid těsto své, prvé než zkysalo, obaliv je v šaty své, na ramena svá.

35 Učinili pak synové Izraelští podlé rozkazu Mojžíšova; nebo vyžádali byli od Egyptských klínotů stříbrných a zlatých, i šatů.

36 A Hospodin dal milost lidu před očima Egyptských, tak že půjčovali jim. I obloupili Egyptské.

37 Tedy táhli synové Izraelští z Ramesses k Sochot, okolo šestkrát sto tisíc pěších, mužů toliko kromě dětí.

38 Ano také jiného lidu mnoho vyšlo s nimi, ovec také a volů, dobytka velmi mnoho.

39 I napekli z těsta, kteréž vynesli z Egypta, koláčů nekvašených; nebo ještě bylo nezkynulo, proto že vypuzeni byli z Egypta, a nemohli prodlévati, a ani pokrmů na cestu nepřipravili sobě.

40 Čas pak bydlení synů Izraelských, kteříž byli v Egyptě, byl čtyři sta a třidceti let.

41 A když se vyplnilo čtyři sta a třidceti let, právě toho dne vyšla všecka vojska Hospodinova z země Egyptské.

42 Noc tato pilně ostříhána býti má Hospodinu, v níž vyvedl je z země Egyptské; tať tedy Noc Hospodinova ostříhána bude ode všech synů Izraelských po národech jejich.

43 I řekl Hospodin Mojžíšovi a Aronovi: Tentoť bude řád při slavnosti Fáze: Žádný cizozemec nebude jísti z něho.

44 Každý pak služebník váš za stříbro koupený, když by obřezán byl, teprv jísti bude z něho.

45 Příchozí a nájemník nebude jísti z něho.

46 V témž domě jísti jej budeš, nevyneseš z domu ven masa jeho; a kostí v něm nezlámete.

47 Všecko shromáždění Izraelské tak s ním učiní.

48 Jestliže by pak cizozemec bydlil s tebou pohostinu, a slaviti by chtěl Fáze Hospodinu, prvé obřezán bude každý pohlaví mužského; a tehdy přistoupí k slavení jeho, a bude jako tu v zemi zrozený; žádný pak neobřezaný nebude jísti z něho.

49 Jednostejné právo bude tu zrodilému a příchozímu, kterýž jest pohostinu u prostřed vás.

50 Tedy učinili všickni synové Izraelští, jakž přikázal Hospodin Mojžíšovi a Aronovi; tak učinili.

51 A tak stalo se právě toho dne, že vyvedl Hospodin syny Izraelské z země Egyptské s vojsky jejich.

1502. From these considerations it is now evident that Abram's sojourning in Egypt represents and means nothing else than the Lord, in particular His instruction during childhood. This is also confirmed by what is stated in Hosea,

Out of Egypt I called My son. Hosea 11:1; Matthew 2:15.

And further still from what is said in Moses,

The dwelling of the sons of Israel who dwelt in Egypt was four hundred and thirty years. And it happened at the end of the four hundred and thirty years, on that very day it happened that all the hosts of Jehovah went out of the land of Egypt. Exodus 12:40-41.

Those four hundred and thirty years were measured not from the time that Jacob entered Egypt but from Abram's sojourning in Egypt. Thus 'My son out of Egypt' in Hosea 11:1 means, in the internal sense, the Lord. The matter gains further confirmation from the fact that 'Egypt' in the Word means nothing other than knowledge, as shown in 1164, 1165, 1462.

[2] And that these arcana are contained in this section may become additionally clear from the fact that similar things are said of Abram when he sojourned in Philistia, namely that he called his wife his sister, Genesis 20:1-end, and also of Isaac, who, when he too sojourned in Philistia, called his wife his sister, Genesis 26:6-13. These actions would never have been recorded in the Word, and set in almost identical circumstances, unless these arcana had been lying hidden within. Furthermore this is the Word of the Lord which cannot possibly have any life unless there is an internal sense which has regard to Him.

[3] The arcana which lie hidden in this section, and in those regarding Abram and Isaac in Philistia, have to do with the way in which the Lord's Human Essence was joined to His Divine Essence, or what amounts to the same, how the Lord became Jehovah as regards His Human Essence also. They also have to do with the fact that His initiation, which is the subject in this chapter, began in childhood. Besides all this these descriptions also embody more arcana than anyone can possibly believe, and those that can be mentioned are so few as to be scarcely anything at all. In addition to the very deep arcana concerning the Lord, they also embody arcana concerning the instruction and regeneration of a person so that he may become celestial, as well as his instruction and regeneration so that he may become spiritual; and not only concerning the individual in particular but also concerning the Church in general. The descriptions here also embody arcana regarding the instruction of young children in heaven. In short they have to do with all who become images and likenesses of the Lord. These arcana are not at all clearly visible in the sense of the letter, the reason being that historical details engulf and obscure them; but they are clearly visible in the internal sense.

Arcana Coelestia#1462

1462. 'Egypt' means, in reference to the Lord, knowledge comprised of cognitions, but in reference to all others, knowledge in general. This becomes clear from the meaning of that country in the Word, dealt with already in several places, and specifically in 1164, 1165. Indeed the Ancient Church existed in Egypt, as it did in many other places, 1238, and while the Church was in that region all kinds of knowledge flourished there more than anything else; and this explains why 'Egypt' came to mean knowledge. But after those people desired to penetrate the mysteries of faith by means of all this knowledge, and so to inquire into the truth of Divine arcana from their own power, Egypt became a place of magic, and so came to mean factual knowledge which perverts, and which gives rise to falsities and derivative evils, as is clear in Isaiah 19:11.

[2] That 'Egypt' means all kinds of knowledge that serve a use, thus at this point knowledge comprised of cognitions which is able to serve as vessels for celestial and spiritual things, becomes clear from the following places in the Word: In Isaiah,

They have led Egypt astray, the corner-stone of the tribes. Isaiah 19:13.

Here it is called 'the corner-stone of the tribes', which was to serve as the base on which the things of faith meant by 'the tribes' were to rest. In the same prophet,

On that day there will be five cities in the land of Egypt which speak in the lip of Canaan and swear to Jehovah Zebaoth. Each will be called Ir Heres. On that day there will be an altar to Jehovah in the midst of the land of Egypt, and a pillar at its border to Jehovah; and it will be a sign and a witness to Jehovah Zebaoth in the land of Egypt, for they will cry to Jehovah because of the oppressors, and He will send a savior and a prince to them, and he will deliver them. And Jehovah will make Himself known to Egypt, and the Egyptians will know Jehovah on that day and will offer sacrifice and minchah, and will make vows to Jehovah and perform them. And Jehovah will smite Egypt, smiting and healing, and they will return to Jehovah; and He will be entreated by them, and He will heal them. Isaiah 19:18-22.

Used in a good sense here, 'Egypt' stands for people who possess facts, or natural truths, which are the vessels for spiritual truths.

[3] In the same prophet,

On that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Asshur, and Asshur will come into Egypt and Egypt into Asshur, and the Egyptians will serve Asshur. 1 On that day Israel will be the third with Egypt and Asshur, a blessing in the midst of the earth, whom Jehovah Zebaoth will bless, saying, Blessed be Egypt My people, and Asshur the work of My hands, and Israel My heritage. Isaiah 19:23-25.

Here 'Egypt' means knowledge consisting of natural truths, 'Asshur' reason or rational things, and 'Israel' spiritual things, which follow one another in that order. Hence the statement that 'on that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Asshur, and Israel will be the third with Egypt and Asshur'.

[4] In Ezekiel,

Fine linen with embroidered work from Egypt was your sail, that it might be to you an ensign. Ezekiel 27:7.

This refers to Tyre, which means the possession of cognitions. 'Fine linen with embroidered work' stands for the truths contained in all kinds of knowledge which are of service; belonging as they do to the external man facts ought to be of service to the internal man. In the same prophet,

Thus said the Lord Jehovih, At the end of forty years I will gather Egypt from the peoples among whom they were scattered, and I will bring back the captivity of Egypt. Ezekiel 29:13-14.

Here also 'Egypt' has much the same meaning, as is also said of Judah and Israel in many other places that they were to be gathered from the peoples and brought back from captivity. In Zechariah,

And it will be that whoever of the families of the earth does not go up to Jerusalem to worship the King, Jehovah Zebaoth, there will be no rain upon them And if the family of Egypt does not go up, and does not come . . . Zechariah 14:17-18.

Here also 'Egypt' is used in a good sense to have a similar meaning.

[5] That knowledge or human wisdom is meant by 'Egypt' becomes clear also in Daniel 11:43 where knowledge of celestial and of spiritual things is called 'the secret hoards of gold and silver' and also 'the precious things of Egypt'. And of Solomon it is said that his wisdom surpassed the wisdom of all the sons of the east and all the wisdom of the Egyptians, 1 Kings 4:30. And the house built by Solomon for Pharaoh's daughter had no other representation, 1 Kings 7:8 and following verses.

[6] The Lord's being taken into Egypt when He was an infant had no other meaning than that which here is meant by Abram, though He was also taken there so that He might fulfill all things that had taken place and were representative of Himself. The passage of Jacob and his sons down into Egypt represented in the inmost sense nothing other than the Lord's initial instruction in cognitions from the Word, as is also evident from what follows. In reference to the Lord the following is said in Matthew,

The angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, Rise, take the boy and His mother, and flee into Egypt, and be there until I tell you. He rose and took the boy and His mother by night, and departed into Egypt, and was there until the death of Herod, so that what had been said by the prophet might be fulfilled, when he said, Out of Egypt have I called My son. Matthew 2:13-15, 19-21.

This promise is stated in Hosea as follows,

When Israel was a boy I loved him, and out of Egypt I called My son. Hosea 11:1.

From this it is clear that 'the boy Israel' is used to mean the Lord, His instruction when a boy being expressed by the words, 'Out of Egypt have I called My son'.

[7] In the same prophet,

By a prophet Jehovah brought Israel up out of Egypt and by a prophet he was preserved. Hosea 12:12-13.

Here similarly 'Israel' is used to mean the Lord. 'A prophet' means one who teaches, thus teaching consisting of cognitions. In David,

Turn us back, O God Zebaoth, cause Your face 2 to shine and we shall be saved. You caused a vine to set out from Egypt, You drove out the nations and planted it. Psalms 80:7-8.

This too refers to the Lord, who is called 'the vine out of Egypt' as regards the cognitions in which He was receiving instruction.
