Genesis第9章

1 Ja Jumal õnnistas Noad ja tema poegi ning ütles neile: 'Olge viljakad, teid saagu palju ja täitke maa!

2 Teid peavad kartma ja pelgama kõik maa loomad ja kõik taeva linnud, kõik, kes maa peal liiguvad, ja kõik mere kalad; need on teie kätte antud.

3 Kõik, mis liigub ja elab, olgu teile roaks; kõik selle annan ma teile nagu halja rohugi.

4 Kummatigi ei tohi te liha süüa ta hingega, see on: ta verega!

5 Tõepoolest, teie eneste verd ma nõuan taga: ma nõuan seda kõigilt loomadelt, ja ma nõuan inimestelt vastastikku inimese hinge!

6 Kes valab inimese vere, selle vere valab inimene, sest inimene on tehtud Jumala näo järgi!

7 Ja teie olge viljakad, teid saagu palju, siginege maa peal ja paljunege seal!'

8 Ja Jumal rääkis Noa ja tema poegadega, kes ta juures olid, ning ütles:

9 'Mina, vaata, teen lepingu teiega ja teie järglastega pärast teid,

10 ja iga elava hingega, kes teie juures on: lindudega, kariloomadega ja kõigi metsloomadega, kes teie juures on, kõigiga, kes laevast välja tulid, kõigi maa loomadega.

11 Ma teen teiega lepingu, et enam ei hävitata kõike liha uputusveega ja veeuputus ei tule enam maad rikkuma.'

12 Ja Jumal ütles: 'Lepingu tähis, mille ma teen enese ja teie ja iga teie juures oleva elava hinge vahel igavesteks põlvedeks, on see:

13 ma panen pilvedesse oma vikerkaare ja see on lepingu tähiseks minu ja maa vahel.

14 Kui ma kogun maa kohale pilvi ja pilvedes nähakse vikerkaart,

15 siis ma mõtlen oma lepingule, mis on minu ja teie ja iga elava hinge vahel kõiges lihas, ja vesi ei saa enam kõike liha hävitavaks uputuseks.

16 Kui pilvedes on vikerkaar, siis ma vaatan seda ja mõtlen igavesele lepingule Jumala ja iga elava hinge vahel maa peal olevas kõiges lihas.'

17 Ja Jumal ütles Noale: 'See on selle lepingu tähis, mille ma olen teinud enese ja kõige liha vahel, mis maa peal on.'

18 Ja Noa pojad, kes laevast välja tulid, olid Seem, Haam ja Jaafet; ja Haam oli Kaanani isa.

19 Need kolm olid Noa pojad ja neist rahvastus kogu maa.

20 Noa hakkas põllumeheks ja istutas viinamäe.

21 Ta jõi veini, jäi joobnuks ja ajas oma telgis enese paljaks.

22 Aga Haam, Kaanani isa, nägi oma isa paljast ihu ja rääkis sellest oma kahele vennale õues.

23 Siis Seem ja Jaafet võtsid vaiba ja panid enestele õlgadele, läksid tagurpidi ja katsid kinni oma isa palja ihu; nende näod olid ära pööratud, nõnda et nad oma isa paljast ihu ei näinud.

24 Kui Noa ärkas oma veiniuimast ja sai teada, mis ta noorem poeg oli teinud,

25 siis ta ütles: 'Neetud olgu Kaanan, saagu ta oma vendadele sulaste sulaseks!'

26 Ta ütles veel: 'Kiidetud olgu Issand, Seemi Jumal, ja Kaanan olgu tema sulane!

27 Jumal andku avarust Jaafetile, ta elagu Seemi telkides ja Kaanan olgu tema sulane!'

28 Ja Noa elas pärast veeuputust kolmsada viiskümmend aastat.

29 Ja kõiki Noa elupäevi oli üheksasada viiskümmend aastat; siis ta suri.

Apocalypse Revealed#598

598. 13:13 "It also performs great signs." This symbolizes certifications that their teachings are true, even though they are false.

Signs symbolize certifications that things are true, because signs once occurred to attest to a truth. But after signs and miracles ceased, their symbolism still remained, which is the certification of a truth. Here, however, signs symbolize certifications by the beast or false prophet that its falsities were true, because that is how falsities appear after they are defended.

That signs symbolize certifications that something is true can be seen from the following passages:

(At the end of the age) false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. (Matthew 24:24, Mark 13:22).

There will also be fearful... signs from heaven... There will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars..., the sea and the waves roaring. (Luke 21:11, 25)

(Jehovah) frustrates the signs of liars, drives diviners mad, turning back wise men backward, and makes their knowledge foolish. (Isaiah 44:25)

Do not learn the way of the gentiles, and do not be dismayed at the signs of heaven. (Jeremiah 10:2)

...they are spirits of demons, performing signs..., to gather them to the battle of that great day... (Revelation 16:14)

Then the beast was captured, and with it the false prophet who worked signs in its presence, (and) led astray... (Revelation 19:20)

[2] That signs were certifications that something was a truth is further apparent from the following:

(The disciples said to Jesus,) "What sign do You perform then, that we may... believe You? What work do You do?" (John 6:30-33)

The Jews, scribes and Pharisees sought a sign from the Lord, that they might know He was the Christ (Matthew 12:38-40; 16:1-4, Mark 8:11-12.

(The disciples said to Jesus,) "What will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?" (Matthew 24:3, cf. Mark 13:4)

...if they do not believe you, nor heed the message of the first sign, still they will believe the message of the latter sign. (Exodus 4:8-9)

The message of a sign is a certification.

They have set among them the messages of His signs... (Psalms 105:27)

(Jehovah said to Ahaz,) "Ask a sign for yourself from Jehovah...." (Isaiah 7:11, 14)

This is the sign to you from Jehovah...: "Behold, I will turn back the shadow on the sundial, which has gone down on the sundial of Ahaz...." (Isaiah 38:7-8)

Hezekiah said, "What is the sign that I shall go up to the house of Jehovah?" (Isaiah 38:22)

This shall be a sign to you..., that I will visit you in this place, that you may know that My words will... stand... (Jeremiah 44:29-30)

Show me a sign (O Jehovah) for good, that those who hate me may see it and be ashamed. (Psalms 86:17)

They will... announce to us what will happen..., that we may set our heart... Show the sign that is to come..., that we may know that you are gods. (Isaiah 41:22-23)

Your enemies roar in the midst of your festival; they set up their banners as signs. (Psalms 74:3-4, 9)

And so on elsewhere, as in Isaiah 45:11; 55:13; Jeremiah 32:20-21; Ezekiel 4:3; Psalms 65:6-8; 78:42, 43; Exodus 7:3; Numbers 14:11, 22; Deuteronomy 4:34; 13:1-3; Judges 6:17, 21; 1 Samuel 2:34; 14:10; Mark 16:17, 18, 20; Luke 2:11, 12, 16).

Signs of the covenant have a similar symbolic meaning in Genesis 9:13; 17:11, Ezekiel 20:12, 20.

[3] It can be clearly seen from this that the great signs that this beast of the dragon performed do not mean signs, but certifications by the clergy that their teachings are true. For every heretic who confirms himself in falsities, afterward certifies that his falsities are true. Indeed, he does not see truths any longer, since the certification of a falsity is a denial of the truth, and truth denied loses its light. Moreover, in the measure that the light of their certification causes falsities to shine with an illusory light, in the same measure the light of truth becomes darkness (as may be seen in no. 566 above).
