Apocalypse Explained#818
818. Verse 12. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose death-stroke was healed.
"And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him," signifies, the connection of reasonings from the natural man with the sense of the letter of the Word, whereby the religion of faith separate is strengthened; "and he causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast," signifies, whence those who in the church are in falsities and evils therefrom, acknowledge the agreement thereof in heart; "whose death-stroke was healed," signifies, and so the disagreement removed by contrived conjunctions of works with faith.
Numbers第15章:22-29
22
"'When you shall err, and not observe all these commandments, which Yahweh has spoken to Moses,
23
even all that Yahweh has commanded you by Moses, from the day that Yahweh gave commandment, and onward throughout your generations;
24
then it shall be, if it be done unwittingly, without the knowledge of the congregation, that all the congregation shall offer one young bull for a burnt offering, for a pleasant aroma to Yahweh, with the meal offering of it, and the drink offering of it, according to the ordinance, and one male goat for a sin offering.
25
The priest shall make atonement for all the congregation of the children of Israel, and they shall be forgiven; for it was an error, and they have brought their offering, an offering made by fire to Yahweh, and their sin offering before Yahweh, for their error:
26
and all the congregation of the children of Israel shall be forgiven, and the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them; for in respect of all the people it was done unwittingly.
27
"'If one person sins unwittingly, then he shall offer a female goat a year old for a sin offering.
28
The priest shall make atonement for the soul who errs, when he sins unwittingly, before Yahweh, to make atonement for him; and he shall be forgiven.
29
You shall have one law for him who does anything unwittingly, for him who is native-born among the children of Israel, and for the stranger who lives as a foreigner among them.
