1 Tito jsou pak soudové, kteréž jim předložíš:

2 Jestliže koupíš k službě Žida, šest let sloužiti bude, a sedmého odejde svobodný darmo.

3 Přišel-li by sám toliko, sám také odejde; pakli měl ženu, vyjde s ním i žena jeho.

4 Jestliže pán jeho dá mu ženu, a ona zrodí jemu syny neb dcery: žena ta i děti její budou pána jeho, on pak sám toliko odejde.

5 Pakli by řekl služebník: Miluji pána svého, manželku svou a syny své, nevyjdu svobodný:

6 Tedy postaví ho pán jeho před soudci, a přivede ho ke dveřím neb k veřeji,a probodne pán jeho ucho jemu špicí; i zůstaneť služebníkem jeho na věky.

7 Když by pak prodal někdo dceru svou, aby byla děvkou, nevyjdeť tak, jako vycházejí služebníci.

8 Nelíbila-li by se pánu svému, kterýž jí sobě ještě nezasnoubil, dopustí ji vyplatiti. Lidu cizímu nebude míti práva prodati ji, poněvadž zhřešil proti ní.

9 Pakli by synu svému ji zasnoubil, učiníť jí tak, jakž obyčej jest činiti dcerám.

10 A dal-li by mu jinou, z stravy její, oděvu jejího, a přívětivosti manželské nic této neujme.

11 Neudělal-li by nic z toho trojího, vyjde darmo bez stříbra.

12 Kdo by ubil člověka, až by od toho umřel, smrtí umře.

13 Když by pak neukládal o bezživotí jeho, než Bůh dal by jej v ruce jeho: tedy uložím tobě místo, do něhož by takový mohl uteci.

14 Pakli by kdo tak pyšně sobě počínal proti bližnímu svému, že by ho lstivě zabil, i od oltáře mého odtrhneš jej, aby umřel.

15 Kdo by otce svého neb matku svou bil, smrtí ať umře.

16 Kdo by pak, ukradna někoho, prodal jej, a nalezen by byl v ruce jeho, smrtí ať umře.

17 I ten, kdož by zlořečil otci svému neb mateři své, smrtí ať umře.

18 Když by se svadili muži, a urazil by který bližního svého kamenem neb pěstí, a ten by neumřel, než složil se na lůži;

19 A potom by povstal a chodil vně o holi své: již nebude vinen ten, kdož urazil; toliko co zatím obmeškal, to jemu nahradí, a na vyhojení jeho naloží.

20 Když by pak ubil kdo služebníka svého neb děvku svou kyjem, tak že by umřel mu v ruce jeho: pomstou pomštěno bude nad takovým.

21 A však jestliže by den neb dva přečkal, neponese pomsty, nebo jej zaplatil.

22 Když by se svadili muži, a urazili ženu těhotnou, tak že by vyšel z ní plod její, však by se zhouba nestala: pokutován bude, jakž by uložil naň muž té ženy, a dá vedlé uznání soudců.

23 Pakliť by smrt přišla, tedy dáš život za život,

24 Oko za Oko, zub za zub, ruku za ruku, nohu za nohu,

25 Spáleninu za spáleninu, ránu za ránu, modřinu za modřinu.

26 Jestliže by kdo urazil služebníka svého v oko, aneb děvku svou v oko, tak že by jej o ně připravil: svobodného jej propustí za oko jeho.

27 Pakli by zub služebníku svému neb zub děvce své vyrazil, svobodného jej propustí za zub jeho.

28 Jestliže by vůl utrkl muže neb ženu, tak že by umřel člověk: ukamenován bude ten vůl, aniž jedeno bude maso jeho, však pán vola toho bez viny bude.

29 Než byl-liť by vůl trkavý prvé, a bylo by to osvědčeno pánu jeho, on pak nezavřel by ho, a v tom zabil by muže neb ženu: vůl ten ukamenován bude, a pán jeho také umře.

30 Pakliť mu bude uloženo, aby se vyplatil: tedy dá výplatu za život svůj, jakážkoli na něj uložena bude.

31 Buď že by syna utrkl, buď dceru, podlé soudu toho stane se jemu.

32 Jestliže by služebníka vůl ztrkal neb děvku, třidceti lotů stříbra dá pánu jeho, a vůl ten bude ukamenován.

33 Kdyby kdo odhradil studnici, a neb vykopal někdo studnici, a zase jí nepřikryl, a vpadl by tam vůl neb osel:

34 Pán té studnice nahradí to, a peníze položí pánu jeho, a což se zabilo, to sobě míti bude.

35 A ustrčil-li by vůl něčí vola sousedova, že byl umřel: tedy prodadí vola toho živého, a podělí se penězi jeho; i s zabitým volem také se rozdělí.

36 Pakli vědíno bylo, že vůl byl trkavý prvé, a nezavřel ho pán jeho: bez výmluvy ať dá vola za vola, a zabitý ať mu zůstane.

9093. 'And divide the silver from it' means that its truth will be dispersed. This is clear from the meaning of 'dividing' as banishing and dispersing, dealt with in 6360, 6361; and from the meaning of 'silver' as truth, dealt with in 1551, 2048, 5658, 6112, 6914, 6917, 7999. The reason why 'dividing' means dispersing is that if things existing in association are divided they are also scattered, as when a person destroys his mind by dividing it. For the human mind consists of two parts existing in association; one part is called the understanding, the other part is called the will. A person who divides these two parts scatters what belongs to each part individually; for one part must receive its life from the other, and therefore when one perishes, so does the other. It is similar when someone divides truth from good, or what amounts to the same thing, faith from charity; when anyone does this he destroys both. In short, all the things which ought to be a single whole perish if they are divided.

[2] This division is meant by the Lord's words in Luke,

No one can serve two masters; either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will prefer the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. Luke 16:13.

That is, it is not possible to serve the Lord through belief in Him and at the same time serve the world by loving it, thus to acknowledge truth and at the same time to do evil. Anyone who behaves in this way has his mind divided, as a result of which it is destroyed. From all this it is evident why it is that 'dividing' means dispersing; and the same is clearly the meaning in Matthew also,

The master of that slave will come on a day when he does not expect him and in an hour he does not know. And he will divide him and assign him his part with the hypocrites. Matthew 24:50-51.

'Dividing' here means separating and removing from forms of good and truths, 4424, thus dispersing them.

[3] In Moses,

Cursed be their anger, for it is fierce, and their wrath, for it is hard. 1 I will divide them in Jacob, and will scatter them in Israel. Genesis 49:7.

These words occur in Israel's prophetic utterance regarding Simeon and Levi. 'Simeon' and 'Levi' here represent those steeped in faith separated from charity, 6352; and 'Jacob' and 'Israel' represent the external and the internal Church, also the external and the internal man, 4286, 4598, 5973, 6360, 6361. 'Dividing them in Jacob' means banishing them from the external Church, and 'scattering them in Israel' from the internal Church, thus dispersing the Church's forms of good and its truths residing with them.

[4] It is also evident that 'dividing' has this meaning from the words written on the wall when Belshazzar king of Babel, together with his nobles, wives, and concubines, drank wine out of the vessels of gold and of silver that had belonged to the Temple in Jerusalem, Daniel 5:2-4, 25, 28. What was written said, 'Numbered, numbered, weighed, and divided,' 'divided' here meaning separated from the kingdom. Those verses show how all things at that time were representative. They describe the profanation of goodness and truth, which is meant by 'Babel'. Profanation is meant by 'Babel', see 1182, 1283, 1295, 1304-1308, 1321, 1322, 1326. Forms of the good of love, also the truths of faith, received from the Lord, are meant by 'the vessels of gold and silver', 1551, 1552, 5658, 6914, 6917. Profanation is meant by drinking out of them, and by praising then the gods of gold, silver, bronze, iron, wood, and stone (as verse 4 says there), which are a string of evils and falsities, 4402 (end), 4544, 7873, 8941. 'The Temple in Jerusalem' from which the vessels had come means in the highest sense the Lord, and in the representative sense His kingdom and Church, 3720. Belshazzar's kingdom when it had been divided was a sign of the dispersion of goodness and truth, and his being killed that very night a sign of deprivation of the life of truth and good, which is damnation. For 'being divided' is being dispersed; 'king' is the truth of good, 1672, 2015, 2069, 3009, 3670, 4575, 4581, 4966, 5044, 5068, 6148, the same thing being meant by 'kingdom', 1672, 2547, 4691; 'being killed' means being deprived of the life of truth and good, 3607, 6767, 8902; and 'the night' in which he was killed is a state of evil and falsity, 2353, 7776, 7851, 7870, 7947. From this it is evident that all things there were representative.

[5] It says in David,

They divided my garments among them, and for my clothing cast lots. Psalms 22:18.

And in Matthew,

They divided the garments (the Lord's), casting lots, that it might be fulfilled which was said by the prophet. Matthew 27:35.

Also in John,

The soldiers took the garments and made four parts; and the tunic. The tunic was without seam, woven from the top throughout. They said regarding it Let us not divide it, but cast lots for it, whose it may be - so that the Scripture might be fulfilled. John 19:23-24.

The person who reads these things, knowing nothing about the internal sense of the Word, is unaware of any arcanum that lies concealed within them, when in fact every detail holds a Divine arcanum. The arcanum was that Divine Truths had been dispersed by the Jews. For the Lord was Divine Truth, which is why He is called the Word in John 1:1 and the following verses, 'the Word' being Divine Truth. His garments represented truths in the outward form they take, His tunic truths in their inward form; and the dividing of the garments represented the dispersing of the truths of faith by the Jews. For the meaning of 'garments' as truths in the outward form they take, see 2576, 5248, 5954, 6918, and for that of 'tunic' as truth in its inward form, 4677. Truths in their outward form are truths as they exist in the literal sense of the Word, but truths in their inward form are truths as they exist in the spiritual sense of the Word. 'Dividing the garments into four parts' meant total dispersion, in the same way that dividing does in Zechariah 14:4, and elsewhere. Dividing into two parts - as it says in Matthew 27:51; Mark 15:38, regarding the veil of the Temple - has a like meaning. The splitting apart of the rocks also at that time, Matthew 27:51, represented the dispersing of all matters of faith; for 'rock' means the Lord in respect of faith, and therefore means faith received from the Lord, 8581.
